The structures are made of many shapes, sizes, and $The structures are made of many shapes, sizes, and composites. All of which are incredibly unique unto themselves, each with a place and purpose, adding balance, support, and beauty. Their ability to exist rests upon the foundation on which they are built. If it is unstable, it will topple to the ground. Not dissimilar to society in which we live. . The truth is, the foundation of our nation (and many others) has been fractured since its inception. Racism has been an intrinsic component of American culture since its founding upon the genocide of the Native Americans, and construction on the back of African slavery. From the beginning, it has shaped our political, economic, social, and justice systems in effort to control people...the minorities. Despite having made some progress in the last hundred some odd years, the same morbid ideals of racial superiority still flow through the veins of society. In the wake of recent events and the turmoil that continues to ensue throughout our nation and beyond, people can no longer choose to deny this as anything but fact. . It is a deeply rooted and complex systemic problem and like most intricate problems there is no single simple solution. But I do know, that until it is the collective majority speaking out against the inequality, discrimination, and injustices that have infected our governing systems, change will be slow to happen. . The foundation of our society is broken, and it is time for an overhaul. Doing so is going to take all of us working together in solidarity. Listening to the pleas being echoed across the nation by those who have suffered for far too long, and voicing our demand for justice, and policy reform to create an equitable society once and for all. We cannot stand silent watching as others struggle any longer. To all those suffering and still fighting a battle that should have long since been over...I see you, I hear you, and my heart is with you. . “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly” -Martin Luther King . Black Lives Matter. All life is Sacred.$
