We still have students saying on Martin Luther King day, “Lets kill off four more like him and get a week off”.  We still have black students being subjected to be called a Nigger while singing the National Anthem with the rest of their peers on a school bus. A Detroit police officer and amateur photographer, Khary Mason, decided to take a stand and sent emails to the schools superintended  and reached out to Activist in communities. When his eldest son had experience racism and still no-one has came to aid him in getting the issue resolved. Having got the attention of a whole community, his only wish is to make a better world for his kids to grow up in.

Rochester Hills population makes up less than 6 percent of African Americans. I think in order to heal communities like this we must have cultural appreciation days. Were we take time out our day to appreciate different ethnicities. Instead, we have some movements that still want racism to be a thing in the fabrics that make up America. Remember the black boy that got shot at by his neighbor when asking for directions to school ? That’s what makes this cops fight and the issue I see in America a problem. Instead of trying to give a solution we bring the poison. Why must we always see other ethnicities as a threat, instead of fixing the threat, we kill them off. Still not having a solution on how to fix the problem but making the flames more fanned. Fear is always going to be an issue when we look at an affluent neighborhood with a population that makes up Caucasians. They are use to the same, seeing the same, that when they see different. The people in that community are going to go off what they see and read in their local news stations, about what happened in Detroit last week at a gas station in the summer time.
