Why should the color of one’s skin create and be the reason for all forms of civil unrest and brutality against we the black people all over the globe? Racial discrimination is now the order of the day.
 
We heard so many cases of racism in all parts of the world today and is really heartbreaking to know that only we the black people are experiencing such an injustice in the hands of the white people. At times I wonder whether being black is now a crime against humanity and creation itself.
 
Oh my gosh racism is absolutely disgusting. We will all agree to the fact that no man born of a woman is perfect but imperfection shouldn’t mean stupidity, arrogance, physical and emotional assaults against our very own black people living in foreign countries all over Europe, America and other parts of the world.
 
We deserve to be treated equal like any other skin colored individual especially the whites. But it’s so unfortunate that the reserve is happening today. Why are the black people getting humiliated, tortured (both physically and mentally)? And above all brutally killed in broad daylight and in the silence of the night all because the color of our skin is black.
 
The time is now or never if the world wishes to stand up against this ugly concept of racial discrimination and acknowledge the fact that “Black lives matter”. The earlier the better, and I repeat our lives really matter. Something must be done to put a stop to this global crisis or else the world shall experience a new form of pandemic which I choose to call “The Rise True Black People” the black people will rise up for their respect and dignity to confront the ego and pride of the white people which will be more devastating than covid 19. 
So let’s stop racism cause black lives matter!.
