          JUST THAT LAZY AND DESTRUCTIVE PART OF THE WHITE CULTURE!!!

    I DO NOT ADVOCATE VIOLENCE ACTS WHILE PROTESTING!!!

     HOWEVER, HISTORY HAS DEMONSTRATED TIME AFTER TIME, THAT PROTESTING      
      COUPLED WITH VIOLENCE OFTEN BROUGHT CHANGE IN THIS NATION.  


There is a growing concern in some African American communities, on how social media interpret their emotions and actions after witnessing the Police committing --Heinous acts of violence, resulting in the deaths of African Americans

 For instance, after the African American community in Baltimore learned that Freddie Gray died in police custody, they became enraged and emotions heightened.  Some citizens  in the community protested peacefully while other felt that peaceful protesting would not receive the attention that was needed to emphasize that their was a serious problem, that existed within the Baltimore Police.  

Freddie Gray's death was the spark that ignited a volatile situation that laid dormant in the community for decades.  The Baltimore community was criticized for acts of violence during their protesting.   Granted their were individuals ceasing the moment to commit crimes.  Unfortunately, this  was not unusual, each culture possess that criminal element.  I'm gradually coming to an conclusion, that certain parts of this society feels that African American should ignore their feelings.

 I do not advocate protesting through violence,  however in this nation history has demonstrated time and time again that violence appears to gravitate toward individuals that protested.  Prior to the civil war people protested against slavery and the outcome was a bloody mess.  

Citizens in Baltimore complained about being  jobless, homeless and starving.  They further stated that this economic condition has plague Baltimore for decades.  I recalled back in 1921 that --Lazy and --Destructive part of the white culture shared the same social and economic heartship as this Baltimore community did.  This part of the white community protested by going to Greenwood Tulsa, Oklahoma and massacred African Americans in that community because they were experiencing social and economic heartships.   I wondered did those citizens get criticized for protesting through violence, 1921 probably not!!
 
On March 7,1965  otherwise known as Bloody Sunday, African Americans protested peacefully by marching  from Selma to Montgomery.  Due to the nature of protesting, violence found it's way into the ranks and files of the protestors and completely disrupted the entire march.  I wondered did those citizens get criticized for protesting through violence as Baltimore, Furguson and Los Angeles did.
