Hi My Loves,

I’m giving you options today. You can read the full story below or get a brief version by pressing play at the Spotify link below and listen from minute 3:00 to 5:30.

Here’s the line I want you to hold onto as you read:

Remember who was there for the right actions BEFORE this all got set on fire.

Why?

Because my dears, there are some leaders who never gave a damn before and there are some companies and people around the nation who have suddenly decided now … now they care. Now they are going to admit they were wrong.

And you know what? At least we may see forms of change from this that we had not been permitted before

BUT LET’S BE CLEAR: There are some of them only bending to our demands because it got too expensive to ignore us.

Insert NFL, Drew Brees, Governor of Ohio right here as examples.

I can hear someone right now saying,

“But we don’t want to chastise them for finally making a change. What if that prevents others from doing the same?”

All I’m saying is:

remember who was already doing right and who wasn’t. Because throughout history, oppressors have bent to the demands of people, as soon as it became too expensive not too.

How do we know?

In the Spotify player at the top, you can learn how The Haitian Revolution and other rebellions of Africans across the Americas is the real reason that slavery was abolished from the various European colonies.
