What difference would this make?

Someone sent me a message asking if I am watching America. I wasn't.

Anyway.. With all due respect to George Floyd and sympathies to his family, I am finding it difficult to digest what I see.

As all the other previous times, Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner or any other black life lost at the hands of a law enforcement personnel, the protests, riots and vandalism will come to pass.

After the fires go down, the body joins the dust, the lives will go on as usual for all the protesters. Even his family will carry on, with a void in their lives.

While it is quite obvious there is racial discrimination towards black people in some parts of the world, by some individuals, I really don't know if it would change, or if there is a way to change things with laws and bills.

As months and years go by, other than the officer/officers standing trial, and being convicted, would there be any real change?

Is that enough?

Can ideological supremacy or racial discrimination be uprooted from a society ?

I have no answers but questions.

All I know is, every life matter. We all feel the same fear and cry when we leave the comfort and safety of a mother's womb. We all breathe the same air. We all walk this earth for a God given time, with nothing but death at the end of our journeys.

Respect, justice and equality for another life can't birth anywhere else better than our own hearts. I wish your death opened more hearts than all the fires started.

Rest in peace George Floyd. sad flower

God bless the USA.
