"Before the words begin...breathe... and step into this moment with me."
~~ Slater Hayes
This episode is merely the capturing of all that we have previously endured.
The instrument that is designed to inflict the continuing pains may have changed-but the spirit that dwells within those who heve been possessed by it has not.
That spirit-ITS' name -HATRED!
A hatred that continues to foment generational hate and is steadfast in its ambition to design systems that continue to rob US of what is inherently ours.
The right to exist within the confines of a system purportedly designed to ensure life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
The question I pose is this. Do you think that you continuing to implement...
"Rubber Trees All Around Us"
will prevent my people from exhibiting the resilience that we have displayed for generations to suddenly collapse under the weight of your aged recipe rooted in HATRED?
i hope not.
What it will do is produce a movement that is sustainable and includes persons from within all ethnicities-each ready to confront you in all aspects of life.
