Sick & Tired

• being sick and tired
• white supremacy
• worrying if me or a family member will be the next
• innocent people dying at the hands of someone abusing their power
• police and civilians getting a smack on their hand for killing  someone
• lack of real consequences when an officer performs unneeded assault
• being a target
• influential folks staying quite
• history repeating itself day after day
• systemic racism and injustices

These are just a few of what has been engulfing my thoughts after partially watching the murder of George Floyd.  Thoughts that haven’t stopped since I was old enough to understand and watch far to many killings and assaults on African-Americans (Blacks).  These thoughts aren’t just my own – thousands of people are sick and tired.  And for the past couple of days have been showing that enough is enough.
