**Edit: after seeing some videos about what happened to the young man in Georgia in February this is just my thoughts and feelings. Ahmaud’s family has to live without him while his killers get to live free. Also I know people are struggling and the government needs to help more and protect us!

The president is not what made this country great. What makes this country great is diversity and freedom. The freedom to be who we are. But is that true for everyone? Unfortunately the reality is that it is not. We have come so far and so close to equality but the truth is that not everyone has equal freedom. So tired of seeing stories of people (mostly white privileged people taking advantage of their white privilege) yell you are taking away my rights by making me stay home or not be able to do what I want when I want! But what about the men and women that had their lives taken away unjustly without a reason but the color of their skin? What about the men and women that had their children sisters and brothers taken away for the only reason being the color of their skin? We need to start changing this culture now. We need to stop and think what we can do to have everyone’s freedom be equal. We are all Americans after all and no matter where your ancestors came from what the color of your skin is. we are what make america great. We need to fight for justice for each other and stand together as citizens and not be divided by outward differences. We have 2 things in common that should bring us together 1 we are human and 2 we are Americans.
