Alright (P.S.A.)

Public Service Announcement: There is power in self-control. There is power in peace. Especially when you can do the opposite swiftly and well. Take pride in your discipline. Today we have witnessed a specific group of people committing terrorist acts. It is not uncommon for them to display this behavior. Literally attacking the US Capitol. Taking pictures in the offices of congress members. Removing confidential documents and destroying property. There are photos of a man with zip ties and military gear on. Was he prepared to take hostages at Capitol Hill? Consequences? Zero. Arrest. Law enforcement handles disruption from a certain hue vastly different than they handle even a peaceful protest of those that look like me.

They make claim they fear for their lives when black human lives are involved. So, to my race and our allies, I want you to walk proudly in our strength today and every day because they fear us for a reason. They fear us because there is power in us. They are scared because we should be disruptive in a similar way, but we choose to change things differently. They cannot fathom why.

They do not understand our rhythm therefore they do not know how or why we move. All they know is if our country did to them what it continues to do to us their self-control would not exist. They are scared because they know they have not seen WHAT. WE. CAN. DO.

There is power in that. Know Your Power. Do not feel discouraged or helpless. Please tap into all of your power. Pray and stay organized. A change is

coming. #SincerelyJam✊🏾
