This week, some 300 million Americans bore witness to the brutal murder of George Floyd at the hands of ruthless and cavalier police officers (yes, plural), yet a vast percentage of these people are STILL debating the semantics of “All Lives.”
I’d contend that some of these people do in fact understand the implications of acknowledging the longstanding devaluation of black existence, yet still choose to embrace the way of white supremacy.
Ultimately, however YOU choose to fight for equality, just know that not everyone will desire this outcome. Even still, that must be where our energies remain: the outcome.
It is not our job to do God’s. Leave people to want to change (or not). To humble themselves and seek a heart that reflects His (or not).
Our hands (hearts, minds and psyches) are already too full.
