OUR HEARTS HAVE'NT BEEN THE SAME SINCE U LEFT US SKYGOD CREATED LIFE AND ONLY HE SHOULD TAKE IT AWAY. YEAR AFTER YEAR WE HAVE ATTENDED FUNERALS FOR YOUNG BLACK MEN WHO WERE MURDERED BY OTHER BLACK MEN IN THE COMMUNITY. OFTEN TIMES WE WONDERED WHAT WE COULD DO TO SAVE THE NEXT BROTHA FROM FALLING VICTIM TO THE STREETS. WE GREW SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT FRIENDS, CLASSMATES, AND NEIGHBORS SLAIN BY TE HANDS OF A GUN. BUT STILL WE EXPECTED IT TO EVENTUALLY END. IT HAS NOT! IT'S ONLY GOTTEN WORST AND WORST AND CLOSER AND CLOSER TO OUR HEARTS TO THE POINT THAT WE FEEL THE BULLETS BURNING IN OUR OWN SOULS!ON NOVEMBER 22, OUR BROTHA AND COUSIN SKYLER LEE STEWART WAS MURDERED BY THE VICIOUS HANDS OF A GUN, THIS WAS THE FINAL STRAW. MOVING OUT OF THE AREA IS NOT THE SOLUTION, BECAUSE IT'S NOT THE CITY, IT'S THE PEOPLE AND THE PROBLEMS WITHIN THE CITY. IF WE MOVE WE STILL HAVE TO COME HOME TO BURY OUR LOVED 1'S.THE SYSTEM IN SAN FRANCISCO IS DESIGNED FOR US TO FAIL AS A PEOPLE. THEY WANT NOTHING MORE FOR US TO KILL OFF ONE ANOTHER SO THAT THEY CAN COME IN AND TAKE OVER OUR COMMUNITIES AND REINVENT OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. SAN FRANCISCO IS A VERY WEALTHY CITY YET AFRICAN-AMERICANS ARE NOT SHARING IN ANY OF THIS WEALTH..MEANWHILE, THE MEDIA HAS CONTINUOUSLY MADE A SOAP OPERA OUT OF A GRIM CRIME SCENE, MASQUERADING A YOUNG BOYS CRYING MOTHER AS IF SHE'S NOTHING MORE THAN A CIRCUS CLOWN.POLICE DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT WHETHER WE KILL ONE ANOTHER OR NOT. WHEN SOMEONE IS KILLED IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY THAT GIVES THEM AN EXCUSE TO TREAT EVERYBODY AS IF THEY ARE A CRIMINAL. DOES THIS GIVES THEM A RIGHT TO INVADE OUR COMMUNITIES POSING LIKE THEY ARE PROTECTING US? THEY THINK WE ARE ALL ALIKE ANYWAY! THEY CAN EASILY USE THE EXCUSE THAT THEY FEEL THREATENED BECAUSE OF THE HIGH MURDER RATES TO ABUSE THEIR AUTHORITIES, USING EXCESSIVE FORCE OR TO SHOT US DOWN LIKE THE ANIMALS THEY PERCEIVE US TO BE.THE CITY HAS IMPLEMENTED HARSHER JAIL TERMS FOR GUN POSSESSION AND NARCOTIC CHARGES, BUT THEY HAVE NOT ONCE INVESTIGATED OR PROSECUTED THE GOVERNMENT OR TOP INDIVIDUALS WHO DUMP THE DRUGS AND GUNS INTO OUR COMMUNITIES. THE YOUNG BLACK MEN THAT ARE FALLING VICTIM TO THESE COLD SAN FRANCISCO STREETS ARE JUST ANOTHER NUMBER ON A PAPER TO CITY OFFICIALS. SKYLER WAS .....88 IN 2005.SELF-HATRED
WHY DOES IT APPEAR THAT WE HATE TO BE BLACK? KILLING SOMEONE THAT IS THE SAME RACE AS YOU MEANS THAT YOU HATE YOURSELF. WE NO LONGER HAVE LOVE, TRUST, OR FORGIVENESS FOR ONE ANOTHER AS COMMUNITY. THERE ARE VERY FEW PEACE MAKERS IN FILLMOE. BACK IN THE DAY IF THEIR WAS A DISPUTE BETWEEN SETS THERE WAS ALWAYS SOMEONE YOU COULD COUNT ON TO SQUASH THE BEEF. YOU CAN NO LONGER WALK THROUGH ALL THE SETS IN FILLMOE EVEN IF YOU ARE FROM FILLMOE! IT SEEMS THAT WE NO LONGER HAVE ANY SINCE OF SELF-LOVE, BROTHERLY LOVE, OR UNITY. THE ONLY CONCERN SEEMS TO BE THE GREEN, WE HAVE GOTTEN SO SELF-ISH AND GREEDY! COMMUNITY LEADERS AND ORGANIZATIONS THAT GOES FOR YOU TOO!WE ARE TRULY SICK AND TIRED OF THE KILLING OF OUR BEAUTIFUL BLACK BROTHA'S! IF YOU ARE SICK AND TIRED AS WELL JOIN OUR MOVEMENT AND STAND TO MAKE A CHANGE!!!WE MAY BE CONTACTED AT
