Black Lives Do Matter

​Black Lives Matter. Every single one. Blacks have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This right comes from God, and is unalienable. They can not be separated from their rights. If every American does not believe this already, they must. In the words (style) of Joe Biden, "If they don't believe this, they ain't American."

Blacks have the exact same rights as every other American and they must be treated as well as, or the same as, every other American. This we hold to be self evident. Because of this, I, and should every other American, fully support The Black Lives Matter movement.

Martin Luther King Jr. is an American hero. He should be honored and treasured and his words and actions studied in American schools. America must support his values and his dream. The two-term election of the first black President, Barack Obama, and the underlying support for the Black Lives Matter movement show that America at heart does wish to support the dream of Martin Luther King Jr. and to honor the truth that black lives do matter.

In one sense, America feels guilty and on another level America wants to make amends. By voting for Barack Obama, and now by supporting the uplifted voices of those who express the value of black lives and point out the inequalities that have happened in this country, America seeks to make amends. Some wonder if reparations are the appropriate action at this point, but I think there is a more viable way forward.

A cancel culture has arisen that strives to silence anyone who even appears to disagree with the noble and democratic goal of equality. Cancel culture can be nasty. Innocent people get caught up in its wake. But then, many innocent people were lynched in the nasty culture of oppressing blacks in America. America can survive cancel culture. Conservatives, progressives, and all Americans need to act as mature adults and bear the slings and disagreements that come their way as two sides battle for their ideals to remain, or become established. Instead of battling, we must seek for unity and a maturing of the American dream for all.

Cancel culture needs to reach its fulfillment. It is obvious that in America there is one group that has been more egregious than any other in causing harm to black lives. That group needs to be canceled permanently, never to return. That group is the Democrat Party.

The Civil War, the Jim Crow laws, the KKK, the lynching of the innocent, the oppression of blacks, and so many other evils against blacks can be traced directly back to the Democrat Party. They need to be canceled.

In its place, we need a new party that will honestly and without bias look to the good of all Americans: black, white, every color, gender, and culture. This party could be called the Civil Rights Party. Conservatives will be attracted because its basis will be the Constitution of the United States. Liberals, Progressives, and Independents will be attracted because it genuinely would be dedicated to the civil rights of all, and for an honest and just America.

Forget the Democrat Party. Let them be canceled. Let the Republican Party stand for themselves, the best they can. Let the new party, the Civil Rights Party, draw from both sides of the aisle. Let's build something new based on the ideals of the Constitution, on the ideals of America. Build something that brings unity, and then let us go forward into an America future as she was meant to be, as our Founders envisioned, as the best among us envision in their hearts in the current day.
