If I were to remain silent, I'd be guilty of complicity. Forever stand up!
Friendly Protesting
Social Freedom For All
Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world won't fight for this we wouldn't be free. There's nothing that oppressive forces want more from us than silence.
To me this is something I found important. I feel like this issue is very interesting and a lot of people can talk and try to argue back, however with protests happening around the world in support of the Black Lives Matter movement, we wanted to take a second to reflect on the importance of speaking out. If we are all silent then it will be very difficult and nothing will ever change. Our own acts tell the world who we are and the society that we live in; it's very hard for us to work together and in unity because of all the different perspectives we each have as humans.
To Finish off, it is very important that we keep in control in this moment and that we make this as peaceful as possible. Because the fact is that they want us to mess up so much and they want us to be disorganized, but not today nor tomorrow nor ever again starting from this day forward we must stand up and fight back. We shall not stand against or be in fear. All our lives we must fight back and stand up.
