WE MUST

We must fight for what is right and provoke our leaders to have laws and policies changed in this country. We must hold them accountable

We must vote without excuse. We must see change in this country that benefits all people.

We must stop ignoring the civil unrest and police brutality that is taken place in this country we call America.

We must understand the history of this country’s past and its impact on future. We must educate our families with truth about our past history with truth, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender or age. We must share and speak truth about the history of this country with truth and not be silent when we become aware of what happened.

We must deal with the systemic racism, injustices and inequalities African Americans have

and continue to endure. We can’t be silent. Something must be done and quickly.

We must stand for what is right.

We must be the change-agents we want to see.

We must serve our communities selflessly.

We must pray and keep God first, because he sent his Son, Jesus Christ to die for us. Let us pray for social justice reform and opportunity for all. Let us pray that Christian leaders are placed in leadership positions who are bold and not afraid to do what is right and who are courageous to fight for change.

We must start now, we need change and right now.
