Great sports & people suggestion made about “Mattering”!

From a retired Marine Corps Officer and now a high school educator.
He shares with his students the word “matter”.
Yes, Black Lives Matter; yes, women’s lives matter, and yes ALL Lives Matter.
Stop talking about, protesting & shouting about mattering and do something that matters!
Get a good education, get a job, take care of your family, help your neighbor.
I say..Gut eR Done & Have Some Fun!

Matter is defined as anything that takes up space.

How many of you actually lead diverse organizations?

Just saying, let’s just go do it only happens if you consider one group’s thinking as the standard approach and ignore the issues of others as not as valid or unimportant or not mattering as much. I have led and been called to serve as the head diverse organizations, most of my life. Trust me and as you can tell Dabo who also is leading a diverse situation- it is not like that outside of a dominant culturally centered world.

When there’s conflict or difference of opinion.

Re: Don't discount all these guys having "a black friend"
Sep 15, 2020, 1:59 PM

I have always understood that my "only" Black friend has had disadvantages in this life, along with a very few positive advantages.
Friends understand. Friends trust and help each other.
But if "he" never expressed the stress he was under until "he" joined a group that were trying to disrupt or destroy everyone's quality of life because some other Black men can't avoid illegal drugs, "he" was never my friend.
I realize "he" is having to choose his identity--is "he" a Black man that needs to find satisfaction in his perpetual victimhood, or is he an well-adjusted contributing citizen of a productive accepting society?
BLM wants us to accept the answer "Both".
Nope. If I offer you a hand up, and you take it, you don't get to keep holding the grudge. If you want to keep holding your grudge, get up yourself.
Pastor Brown, there is now so much distributed wealth in this country that if you could get 75% of young Black men to stay off drugs and be in committed monogamous relationships, you can erase interracial inequity in less than 2 generations.
But BLM wants to send us back to tribal economics.
