It Is Time For The Community To Man and Woman Up!

Abeloved community activist,named Charles Burgin, has a famous saying when he used to go around imploring Black men and women to be more responsible in helping to solve the many social and economic ills in our community.

"Man Up!" or "Woman Up!" he would yell from the back of whichever room or meeting place he was attending.

Community, I am at a loss on how we can stop the killing of young Black men and women who seem to be getting murdered younger and younger.

Who is being killed almost exclusively are Black boys and girls, not children of any other race.

For whatever reasons, we, as a race of people, have failed to provide a safe community for our children. We are dancing and partying when we should be marching. We don't go out to vote in new leaders when clearly, the status quo is unable or unwilling to do the job of getting guns off our streets or getting our youth to put them down!

We can blame racism all we want. It might make us feel better by blaming one possible cause but it does nothing to stop our children from dying at the hands of those who look like them and more likely, are in the same economic or living situation as their killers. There is drug addiction, drug dealing, poverty and dysfunction in many, various racial households in this nation. My question is: Why are we Black people the only ethnic group that is killing one another?

Take a quick tally of those who died needlessly at the probable hand of a fellow Black man, over the past 50 years. The numbers are clearly in the hundreds of thousands of deaths column. If these mainly young, Black men had died in war or at the gun of law enforcement, we would be up in arms ourselves!

Shaking our heads, wringing our hands and wailing at funerals is not going to resolve the issue the Black community has in this 21st Century America. It is going to take individuals like me who do not care if they are loved or not or highly thought about or not, to run for, and win, those city, county, state and federal political offices, to change the ' blame game' narrative and help to decrease the killings.

That 13 year old baby girl was not born to be mowed down and murdered recently before she even had a chance to grow up and take her rightful place in this society. And neither were any of the other hundreds of thousands of murdered men and women born who so needlessly and violently died by the hand of 'their brother.'

Buffalo, I feel we are at that crossroad of whether we can stop the killings and give all children a decent chance of surviving our mean streets. Sadly the odds are against many of those young people who are being raised without a responsible, male, role model in their lives and they don't stand a chance.

I am personally doing my part helping to raise the last two of my grandsons. I want them to live and to be in an environment where they are safe and insulated from those malcontents who do not have their best interest in mind. I want to help other people's children as much as I can but with some parents so out of balance, it may be difficult to help those who believe their children can do no wrong.
