In light of the
tragedy of George Floyd an, and the tragedy of ALL OF US, I propose a way of
remembrance. On a designated day, everyone wear two band-aids on their neck, to
remember his agony, to remind ourselves of anger, of wound, because George
Floyd's wound is NOT ONLY the wound of African Americans, it is also the wound
of every race, of Asians, of Mexicans, of Arabs, and of Caucasians. It is
hurting that after all the thorny trails that the resistant precedents have
blazed for us, this nation is still filled with injustice and apathy. The
double band-aids on the neck not only reminds us, again and again, perpetually,
of the unspeakably brutal and undignified way George Floyd has died, but also
symbolizes a cross that each of us carry.








It hasn't been a
comfortable process, but I've been thinking a lot about the foundational
arrangement of racist people, and how to communicate their shortcomings in a
way inviting enough to stir up positive change.
I figure if a person is to know the value of a loving connection, then
that's what would naturally permeate through that person to celebrate the
greatest part of being human, which IS love.
Then I look around and find that we are nowhere close to achieving a
society that is very open or loving.
Instead, it's like the act of building up an armed and guarded fortress
around yourself has become the move to make.
Protecting oneself from a hostile environment, while just taking what
they can get from it without giving much back.
It's a hell of a thing to accept that this "hostile
environment" has completely to do with the abyssal mirror that you and the
collective "it" are fused homogeneously beyond the illusion of
reality, with mere environmental factors causing spin offs of behavioral
difference. ALL HUMANS CONSCIOUSNESS IS
THE SAME, before it has a body, let alone a skin color. Some of us caveman like people fall short of
discovering these truths. Understanding
the situation from a low enough level is key to start breaking down people's
fortresses(the black), and opening up their love(the rainbow) to both
themselves and others.
