I have not been on for awhile been caught up with family issues, and blogging is hard.
Now the reason behind this post. Firstly my blog is not just about natural hair. I want to use this to inform about anything I am passionate about and this is one of those things. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. What took place in McKinney Texas should never have happened. What is worse is the blatant justification of what an adult male, not a cop because he crossed the line feels the need to use his authority on a 15 year old girl in her bathing suit. This was a clear violation of human rights and another situation where black lives where mistreated. I am tired of those who abuse authority and cause harm to others simply because they think they can. I'm tired of feeling like if I speak out on any injustice especially those done to black people I'm too black power, or I am an angry black women. I watched that video and I nearly fell. That could have been my cousin, my friend and no adult saw anything wrong because well she was being "mouthy". I will no longer stand for this, we need to get it together this mistreatment of black lives has gone on long enough and something needs to be done. I need people to stop and think and really take a good look because in order for us to come together we need to address the problem head on.
