Power to the People


No matter who you are or who you used to be,
Fight for our dying Black sisters and brothers with me.
Even if your voice shakes,
together we will make the earth quake,
Use your privilege and platform,
and together we will make a storm.
No matter how big or small.
We are fighting for them all.
Justice must be served
For those who never got what they deserved.
No lives matter until Black lives matter.
We will fight until the Black community is no longer shattered.
Silence is lethal.
Power to the people.
