“We are one, our cause is one, and we must help each other, if we are to succeed.”   —   Frederick Douglass

(A great quote, from a great man!  I got a question for all the people who – so lightly – respond with Blue Lives Matter, or All Lives Matter.  Do you realize/comprehend that it’s NOT Just Black Lives Matter, but Black Lives Matter Too???  Or, are your hearts and heads just so full of hatred that you can’t see when other people are being oppressed?  We all have so much more in common, once you get past our cosmetic differences.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
