My baby girl is growing up!!!
Rhianna is 3 years old and my youngest child. Today at this very moment, Rhianna is getting ready to jump into the pool at her school. I am sitting at the McDonalds a block away thinking maybe, I should be right there with her. This is my baby after all. An accident occurred just now right outside the window where I am sitting. No one was injured, a truck was in reverse trying to park, and they cracked the McDonalds sign. Walking out here may prove dangerous if it falls off. I am annoyed as there is a kid right next to me rapping and cursing, and speaking with so much disrespect for himself. It is sad. This is the very reason our young men of color are looked at so poorly. Here is is speaking about his mom working in the Hospital just down the Block. Now I am on E. 69th and 1st Ave. A really good neighborhood, and he is just acting foolish. Today is just NOT my day. It makes me sad that people have so little love for themselves. Where is the love? Where is the self respect? Ok.... I was going to post this when I was stopped in my tracks!!! These young men are talking about heading out to a PROTEST???? Ok they want to protest the death of a young mans death. A terrible tragic event that is a stain on our Police Department. What gets me is that they are a sad example of why it is that OUR young men of color are targets. He is stating he is not a drinker, but gets high.... And the disappointment continues... I can't no more, I am leaving here.
