#StopKillingOurSons

This I MUST SAY. To UNINFORMED White People/Black People/FB friends:

(1) Don’t WHISPER your “support” of the black struggle, SHOUT it!

(2) Don’t inbox me your “understanding” of how racist the system is, POST it on my timeline like you do everything else.

(3) Do not share with me the slogan, “All lives Matter”, because it clearly shows your LACK of understanding for our struggle for justice and equality.

(4) And whatever you do, DON’T EVER say that a black victim deserves to be murdered by so called “law enforcement” for doing nothing more than exposing his or her skin color.

If ANY of you are inclined to do even ONE of these things, PLEASE UNFRIEND ME TODAY!

I am so serious! I refuse to go into my 50th year of life with a bunch of “friends” who are too worried about what other people think to take a stand against systemic racism. I don’t care who you are or what our previous relationship has been, I am cleansing myself of your poison. You go #DoYou, because I am UNAPOLOGETICALLY going to #DoMe!

This is my son and his father… His life matters, their lives matter. At 16 years old, my son is 6'3" and still growing, and as I told a friend, many people (including law enforcement) will only see him as a ‘big, black guy’ and deem him a threat and that angers me. If ANYTHING happens to MY SON, ALL Hell will break loose, and I will be that Hell. #MySonsLifeMatters. ALL #BlackLivesMatter Karson Hawkins’ Life Matters. He is respectful and he DEMANDS respect…from EVERYONE, including the police. Get the good cops trained and get rid of the the bad ones. And by ‘get rid’, I mean FIRE or better yet, just DON’T HIRE!

But whatever you do, #StopKillingOurSons!
