I have witnessed a Black American man run for Presidency in the United States of America just because he wanted to awaken the sleeping giants, like the Black American man that became the President of the United States. It takes positive and inspiring thoughts to take initiatives like these and it takes dedication to make them happen. Both of these are “Profiles in Black History” and there are many more profiles about Black American people that should be learned about. Profiles that our children should see to understand that our children should see to understand that “We Are Royalty”.
Our children need to see that they are royalty and they need to start using labels like that to describe their self. We must begin to show the benefits and importance of the many different roles that Black Americans play in our communities. Our children are watching so it is time to stop fighting one another if we want our children to do the same. The positive actions that we take need to be promoted by each other the same way that songs are played on the radio and shows are promoted on television. We must help those that take the initiative to do positive things in our community and show the positive lights that are being shined in the neighborhoods that we live in. This must be done so that we can begin to build stronger structures in our communities, so that our children can see positive actions on a more consistent basis, and so that everyone will be able to witness the power of common-unity while we overshadow the negative things that are present. While everyone watches, we can say “Label Me Royalty”.
By showing and sharing strength, we can begin to be examples of key positions in society that can be claimed by our children. We are the remedy for our present wounds and it is our responsibility to heal our communities with more than temporary pain relief for symptoms, instead of cures for the problems. Hope needs to be present even when situations seem hopeless or a part of life that is destined to happen. The positive parts of our history must be shared in confidence and with the support of others. We must be able to tell our children “I am important, this is my kingdom that will soon be yours, I Am Royalty a Profile In Black History”.
