Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.� Martin Luther King Jr. Letter from the Birmingham Jail

he time is right now! We should be taking an immediate stand against racism and injustice against Black people. The current situation across our nation is the boiling over generational rage and frustration that has been part of every day life for Black people in the USA for over 400 years. EVERY SINGLE DAY. “I don’t Understand but I STAND with you.” It is imperative that US citizens, all of whom have seen this struggle over their lifetimes, express empathy and compassion for others. If society will first seek to understand and then to WWW.VIVYDMAGAZINE.COM
be understood the healing process will begin and with sincerity, we can become the United States of America. We have been a land divided since the inception. Now, everyone is a reporter. Smartphones have allowed every owner be a reporter of their lives. Thankfully social media has created a vehicle that allows everyone with an account to visibly respond to WYD, encourages people to show the whole world how they are living, what’s on their mind, and gives voice to what they are thinking about.

LIVESMATTER Peace NOT Patience
George Floyd Editorial by Raymond Kemp
“On May 25, Minneapolis police officers arrested George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, after a deli employee called 911, accusing him of buying cigarettes with a counterfeit $20 bill. Seventeen minutes after the first squad car arrived at the scene, Mr. Floyd was unconscious and pinned beneath three police officers, showing no signs of life.” -NY TIMES Many people are seeing what it means to be Black in America. Experiencing the struggle and the unfairness, up close and personal. Some chose to ignore the cries of those who are being killed by the police until, thanks again to social media, it was shoved in their face. The assassination of George Floyd, broadcast live on social media is one of many murders perpetrated by the police that was caught on camera and put on display for the world to see. Philando Castile was stopped for a broken tailight, as the event unfolded his girlfriend was live streaming the event as he was shot and killed with her and a 4-year-old child in the
back seat. Ahmaud Arbery was murdered while jogging in Georgia, an event caught on video that was reviewed by GA authority months prior to any action being taken by the state to bring justice by the people who killed him. Regrettably so many of these murderers get away with it because of the institutional racism, THIS MUST END. Swift justice. We must demand clear consequences and repercussions for taking the life of an unarmed person, particularly when they present no threat to life. The police officer kept his knee on George Floyd’s neck for 8:46 WWW.VIVYDMAGAZINE.COM
