#BlackLivesMatter...#MyLifeMatters; Our Future


#BlackLivesMatter, what does this mean?

It means it is time to stop the violence against our beautiful black people

It means that it is time for equality

It means not getting stopped for 'driving while black'

Many people say that #AllLivesMatter should be in effect

But what is #AllLivesMatter?

It means being treated like a human being

It means not being judged because of  the color of your skin

It means finding justice for crimes equally

Why is #BlackLivesMatter so imporant?

Because it means being treated like a human being

Because it means not being judged because of the color of your skin

Because it means  finding justice equally

But #BlackLives does not matter in this crooked world. 

Yes, #AllLivesMatter but once we have equality for all people, this world be stay mistreating our people.
