Say his name, JONATHAN PRICE

October 7, 2020 By albert

Say his name, JONATHAN PRICE

I’m sharing this with an array of mixed emotions as I’m brokenhearted, angry, sad, hurt and really just numb. Sadly the one thing I’m not is… surprised.

 

This video is an accurate account of what happened and pretty much how I personally feel, with a “couple of exceptions”.

Although I don’t believe in the slogan “Defund The Police”, I absolutely believe law enforcement agencies nationwide need to be “reformed” top to bottom. From the Attorney Generals, Police Chiefs, right down to Rookie Officers, there needs to be a “vetting and training” overhaul. She also said “right wingers” which I disagree with because there are “left wingers” that are just as bad.

Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Independent or otherwise, we must understand “racism” is not a political issue. Racism is a moral, humanity, life or death issue that needs to change.

Paid leave, qualified immunity and secret grand juries all need to be banned. Bodycams should be made “mandatory” regardless of any national jurisdiction. The ultimate authority to request whether or not the footage is released and made public “immediately” should reside with the family.

Jonathan Price was previously at a Black Lives Matter protest “defending” police and some of their questionable actions. He was the “All Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter” type of individual. Unfortunately he was killed by a “22 year old cop” working within the same system he was defending because of the color of his skin.

Systemic racism is so much a part of our daily lives, that it sometimes goes unnoticed. Until systemic racism is dealt with from the legislative and law enforcement end, please remember that in the eyes of society Black people are seen as Black first before being seen as anything else.

Regardless of your skin color, we are all one human family and we are all God’s children…

John Lewis – “Good Trouble”

July 27, 2020 By albert

John Robert Lewis (February 21, 1940 – July 17, 2020) was an American politician and civil-rights leader who served in the United States House of Representatives for Georgia’s 5th congressional district from 1987 until his death in 2020 from pancreatic cancer. Lewis served as the chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) from 1963 to 1966.

Lewis was one of the “Big Six” leaders of groups who organized the 1963 March on Washington and the last surviving one at the time of his death. He fulfilled many key roles in the civil rights movement and its actions to end legalized racial segregation in the United States. In 1965, Lewis led the Selma to Montgomery marches across the Edmund Pettus Bridge. In an incident which became known as Bloody Sunday, armed Alabama police attacked unarmed civil rights demonstrators, including Lewis, Hosea Williams, and Amelia Boynton. [Read more…]

African-American’s Military History

February 11, 2020 By albert

Today we honour the men and women who have served and sacrificed their lives for the freedom we have today.

It’s ironic how we can be divided as people and a country, but at the same time come together as one unified military. At the end of the day there is no colour in team, winning or fighting side by side for the preservation of one’s life.

One of the most important lessons of war is simple, “we have more in common than we have differences and we are all on the same team fighting for one common goal”… God bless the soldiers!!!
