Community and the want to up hold Honor and this nations true calling,
"All persons are created equal"
"Now is the Time!"

A high calling of American Ethos that reached every corner
of America, and it ended with a March on Washington… No it ended with Dr.
Martin Luther King's Death. Let us be honest about that, all America broke down
after that, Riots, broken communities that did not rebuild for 10 years,
causing another great rift. The work he was about to finish, as all America's
"Voice" was never done, racism, poverty, mass consumerism, the wealth
gap, the human gap.
Then:
We rebuilt slowly on
the new ground King laid his dream his words beating in the heart of every
American "Alive" waiting, in every Child who listened to his speech
in class, in every little white and black girl and boy brown and yellow there
was HOPE! A hope never seen before.
We rebuilt, and the corner stone he planted in the
"Good Earth" of American truth grew.
We shared as the 70's came, Ebony and Ivory, Black is
beautiful, White is beautiful.
We laughed at Sammy
Davis, Richard Pryor, and all the true ethos was played on the air, John
Lennon, Imagine,, So time broke us up.
We have been put against each other, and it is sad, for Each
Person supporting each Cause above from even my Brothers and Sisters taking
down the Confederate Flag in Civil disobedience, to my brother and sisters
riding for the right to the Honor of the Flag. I will tell you both sides have
blown their top about civil rights and racism, Yes both sides. There is HONOR
at stake and both sides have an ethos of humanity reason for their actions.
I say this simple that THEY ALL, WE ALL want a better
America.
I also say this. "If each person left their home
"'Marched' 'Rode' 'Spoke' 'Face book posted', with respect and an over
whelming need to find peace and not yell at one another..
We could do about anything together.
"A Dream can Change Everything"
"Now is the time"
Time to be polite, overtly civil, let your voice of Peace be
heard. Support everyone who doesn't bring hate but brings Honor to those words
above, and those of the past. Doctor KING "“Oppressed
people cannot remain oppressed forever. The urge for freedom will eventually
come” This is a quote from Martin Luther King Junior’s “Letter from the
Birmingham Jail”; his words were like thunder across a stormy sky daring our
humanity not to listen. The legacy he left, a reminder to the community, too
always do what is just no-matter how off the society and his idea conflicted at
the time. The booming references to the solidarity in an oppressed people who
are in the action phase of their non-violent issue pushes forth a raw ethos in
Dr. King’s letter. The struggle he is in
the midst of is one that has become rife for change, and one of which he has
become the chosen leader thereof. Dr. King’s investment and loyalty in his work
was reflected in the steadfastness of his spirituality and compassion for his
fellow man. Ending in his death; I bet you he was smiling and cursing. I too have aspired to be a voice for those in
our community, my brothers and sisters who have kept silent during their time,
a message from beyond the grave for
some, the telling of their suffering in a chaotic world labeled, pursued,
attacked, and buried every day.
the “Promised Land”.
He opens his letter which is addressed to a select audience, an
audience whom which he considers his equals of for they are all men of god, and
pillars in their community. Firstly, he lets his audience know why he is in
jail; furthermore, why he is in Birmingham. The answer he gives is simple,
injustice. At one point he gives the four social steps to creating a
non-violent movement. 1. The injustice must be present. 2. The need for or
attempts at negotiation must be made. 3. The purification of those who will
take part in the final step. 4. Action.
He continues to give responses to the allegations of being an extremist
by relating his actions to extremists of the past such as Jesus and Paul, who
he feels to be in fine company with. A special dissertation which takes several
paragraphs’ is then relayed to his readers; it is about the churches doctrine
and teachings which call for speaking out against suffering and its removal
wherever it exists. He furthermore calls them to action as good men; for, he
says it is their duty as men of god. Dr. King speaks of the brutalities
suffered by those with him in vivid fashion dispelling any falsities’ portrayed
by the media and puts the truth front and center. His call for action was
evident in his own stance and of those who suffered and toiled by his side. The
letter many pages long says over and over there is need for change and supports
this fact with all forms of argument logos,
pathos, and ethos each driving home his intent repeatedly like a great
sledge hammer.
Again I am not Dr.
King. The story I tell and the voice of those who live in the world I give
insight to are real alive and need this message. We must bring it forth all
together again. It took a long time last time, maybe we can take less time this
time.
(Yes they broke us in
one summer in 1984, but we can take the Sun back..)
The oppression of our fellow America
"Dispossessed" ie (Homeless to Prison to Addicts to shot in the
street to Poverty and not enough food to eat, Ghetto Stuck.)

Ps My father Marched with King. I am Mixed
both Black and White. I have spent my whole life being the #Bornsuspect. Not
wanted accepted and often the end of racial hate by both races, so "I WILL
HAVE NONE OF IT!", with a smile. The above writing Peace-Up ExodusVIII was
done 4 days *Jan 22, 2015 after the police beat me close to death during a
Seizure, for the 2nd time. *Jan 13 1990 My son's birthday.. Jan 23rd 1990. I
thought it was that night. I was in a hurry to get home baby bag and hospital.
I never made it. I was savagely beaten
over Racial matters. So I come from a Place of Peace. I never back down., well
that's the soldier in me. I never stop.

Testimony, I am a X-felon. S.U.M.I.T. Boot
Camp Oregon Bold Gold 15th platoon 97, Graduate of Drug Court 07, x Homeless,
Graduate of College 2011, I am not a saint, but I am also not a man who has never
been violent with police, yet the scars they put on me lay for my whole life.
They ruined a young man, I have had my life in danger from my color. There are
still people who lynch in the back ways here in Oregon, and the beatings or
racial attacks on persons are never take serious by police, (I have my own
personal track record of unbelievable actions #BornSuspect against me by police,
Felony stops, hands, knees., and the worst part is the terror, everyday, PTSD
never goes away and the 1st time I was beaten and got ill No one knew what PTSD
was.) I know now and the reality of our community is we are done with all the
violence and we don't care how it's down. but we are starting with the biggest
issues first, deaths suffering Injustice born of hate. I pray upon the word
comes forth in equal form from ALL sides,
"PEACE" "Now is the
time!"
I really like to say. Poor white people even
though I am mixed and called Afro/N word in Oregon; I still find myself more
involved with helping who is around me. I live in a very white area. Is what it
is. .05% Afro-America. I don't see color, and pretty much treat every person
who comes along as best I can as a Man.
A simple but powerful thing. "To be a
better man" "A dream can Change Everything.
