Black Lives Matter

Yeah, this slogan sounds empowering but are we truly empowered by words? As it seems words and the voices that continually articulate black pain are ignored. Or we are told that it is our fault. Is the system capable of seeing fault in white supremacy or does it supremacy remain unchallenged? I am challenged to find hope when hope for black humanity to be recognized seems like a shot in the dark as shots in the dark seem to be leave black bodies lifeless. Life is valuable but in this world is seems like there is a hierarchy in regards to the lives that matter. So again black lives matter but truthfully does anyone really believe that?
