This day 5 years ago had an impact on our family’s life!
Facebook Memory: I woke up this morning to a song penned by my youngest son, concerning what’s happening in America today as it relates to black men! To say the least, I was heartbroken and It got me to thinking!!!
I heard the $20 bill that George Floyd was trying to use was later to be determined as real (not a forgery). For $20, he died?
How do we as parents comfort our young black men and tell them it’s going to be alright? They believe that they are being hunted down and murdered and that their cries for help are not being HEARD! My heart hurts for the families that have loss loved ones from “any” senseless violence (period). But it especially hurts when it is by the hand of someone who is suppose to “serve and protect!” Where is the accountability? Change is Necessary!
Question: What do we as parents tell our young black men? We can not control how others see them!!!! What do you see when you look at them????? It’s time!!!! Much prayer is needed! 2 Chronicles 7:14

I wrote this post 5 years ago today after hearing a song my youngest son wrote – This was a very emotional day, and here we are, 5 years later.
