The Canary Walking on The ‘Mind’ Fields of History
Without justice, conditions for peace do not exist.
No peace in the world, nor the psyche. To pretend like it’s on the oppressed to just do better or be better is an insult to human intelligence. Even that person at home watching the images on their devices. There is no fourth wall to protect you, when the truth is present.
Without justice, healing can never be possible. No matter the spin doctors spewing opinions, hoping to once again extinguish, what burns eternally.
The true irony is these foul practices, only exist for the few, a few who prefer profit margins over people.
Without trust, peace doesn’t exist. Without justice a society struggles with a collective conscience, desperate to find pundits that will tell us it’s okay to look away. Just consume more products and entertainment. It’s a creepy thing how the truth still remains.
The cops who killed Breonna Taylor will never have peace, nor the people in the town. I don’t know this city but I know the experience. I feel for a city that wants to be left alone, yet a governing body cannot do the one thing that would’ve let a town breathe. This city will be stained for all time. Joining the history of this toxic whiteness, created by men who valued slavery over religion, yet able to use both, with the bonus of the court of law at their disposal.
Foundational practices passed down to generations like your momma’s favorite recipe on how to police black and brown. How to bombard the affluent with fear, violent images meant to override rational thought.
This American pie has a crust that is over cooked. Slices of apples rotten from an unnatural tree. Cooked in a stone oven. Those who eat only think it’s good because they’ve never had better.
We are the justice for Breonna Taylor. It will be in everything we do. The cops, the town will never be able to fully move on. Omitting justice doesn’t allow for such a luxury.
Our protest. Our policies. How we teach. How we learn. What we do in business. Every life taken will motivate a diverse and inclusive cause that no one person possesses. As the truth is our spiritual connection.
