One of the most important stories of our time was the unjust murder of a black woman named Sonya Massey in Springfield, Illinois. There has been even more shock and outrage at the bodycam video that has been revealed to the public that showed the murder of Sonya Massey. Sonya was only 36 years old. She was younger than me and I'm an older Millennial. The deputies responded to a call by Massey about a prowler at her home at Hoover Avenue by 12:50 am. Later, the deputies shot her at 1:21 am. Grayson reportedly didn't activate his bodycam until after he shot Massey. The video came from the unnamed deputy's bodycam. Massey poured boiling water out in her kitchen sink and the officers made joking laughs. Massey said I rebuke you in the name of Jesus. Grayson became aggressive for no reason pulled out his firearms, and he cursed at her threatening to shoot her in her face. Massey apologized and pleaded to the officers for her life. Massey was shot, and Grayson said let her just bleed out. Grayson tried to convince the unnamed officer to not start first aid which is illegal. Two minutes later, first aid was used. Sonya Massey was unjustly murdered, and justice should come about. Police unjust violence and all forms of oppression should be opposed.
Vice President Kamala Harris recently gave a speech to outline her Presidential campaign in Delaware (on Monday), praising President Joe Biden, and making contrasts between her agenda and the agenda of Donald Trump. Kamala Harris wants to defend the American people. Vice President Kamala Harris said that she prosecuted financial criminals and other criminals. She said that the people she prosecuted were Trump's type. Kamala Harris wants to take the fight to Trump in opposition to the Project 2025 agenda. Trump denies having anything to do with the precepts found in Project 2025, but Trump's policies are very similar to Project 2025. This 2024 election is the most important election in American history. Kamala Harris came to the stage to express her ideals with the background of the Beyonce song of "Freedom." While Trump uses ad hominem attacks against Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris showed solution-based policies to defeat Trumpism. While Trump wants tax cuts for the super-wealthy, Kamala Harris desires the super-wealthy to pay their fair share of taxation (in opposition to the false doctrine of trickle-down economics). Kamala Harris has experience as a prosecutor and Senator who makes the case clear to defend human rights and have a sense of inspiration to seek more glorious progress in our society. While Trump wants vengeance and retribution against people who disagree with him politically, Kamala Harris is focused on the work to make America better than the past.
Kamala Harris finished a passionate speech in the battleground state of Wisconsin to start her 2024 Presidential campaign. This was her first campaign rally on July 23,2024. She wanted to contrast her record with Donald Trump's views. She wanted to defeat him by November 2024. Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer officially announced their support of Kamala Harris. The Democrats are more united now. She has enough delegates to earn the Democratic Presidential pick by August 7, 2024. Kamala Harris said that she is focused on the future. She believes that every person has the opportunity to not just get by but to get ahead. In her Wisconsin speech, she wants to grow the middle class, opposes the agenda found in Project 2025 (Trump denies having anything to do with it, but his views are found in it and Project 2025 was created by many former Trump administration officials), and said that her campaign raised millions of dollars in grassroots funding in the last 24 hours. Lauren Boebert and Tim Burchett made the racist comment that Kamala Harris is a DEI hire. Racism has no place in the Universe. To agree to disagree on political issues is fine but not bigotry or slurs. Donald Trump, Charleston White, and Judge Joe Brown calling Kamala Harris out of her name outlines their jealousy and desperation. Kamala Harris is a woman with intellect, courage, and power that they can't. Trump was legally liable for raping a woman, Charleston White made the ignorant comment that he won't vote for any black woman running for President, Joe Brown minimized Harriet Tubman (called himself a male chauvinist and acted drunk to women without his wife around). So, these 3 males are people that are just plain wrong.
The Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has resigned. This comes after she gave her testimony to Congress about the Secret Service's response to the assassination attempt of Donald Trump. There has been a bipartisan group of people who desire her to resign. There have been documented security lapses during the event in Butler, Pennsylvania. Kimberly Cheatle said that her decision was difficult and didn't want to distract from the mission of the Secret Service (which is to protect the lives of Presidents and ex-President in a comprehensive fashion). Secret Service Deputy Director Ronald Rowe has been tapped to lead the agency; the Department of Homeland Security announced. President Biden gave a statement that he and First Lady Jill Biden were grateful for Cheatle's decades of public service. There will be multiple investigations of the events during the assassination attempt.
We are in a new time in our world history. We are nearly at the quarter-century mark in this new century filled with mobile phones and iPads. It is important to recognize the true value of black culture in the 21st century. From architecture (including scientific discovery) to the development of musical expression, black culture is ever real. In the 21st century, the diversity of black cultural power is self-evident when we see Internet-based television shows including films showing black actors and actresses (like Sanaa Lathan, John Boyega, Leslie Odom Jr., LaKeith Stanfield, John David Washington, Regina Hall, Teyonah Parris, Issa Rae, etc.), Sa'Carri Richardson and Noah Lyles displaying confidence plus determination on the track field, and Ashanti Johnson being one of the greatest oceanographers of our generation. The great essence of black culture is that it is never monolithic and it's authentically inspirational. We are human beings with the subsequent right to aspire to excellence, and excellence is not about egoism. Excellence is about being content with oneself and growing into the next of being the best version of yourself for sincere motivations.
