About this audiobook
Each day that is blessed to us, some black man, woman or child has been killed or mistreated by police or from another black person. Black people in America should have always organized against injustices from police and other misguided blacks who are a threat to their survival. I cannot understand that after hundreds of years and comprehensive progress in civil and human rights, that black people's lives are still not valued or respected.
Black Lives Matter is a book that expounds on the realities and hardships of black people living in America. The clouds of hate and distrust must end. So black people can avoid the senseless violence and disrespect they endure from other black people, police, and government. If BLACK LIVES TRULY MATTER, then swift justice must be enforced for those that violated the freedoms and peace of blacks trying to live in America.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5"Each day"... Actually statistics show that more white persons are killed by police officers each year than there are black persons killed by officers (the media decides to showcase black deaths by officers to further their agenda). They then point to the fact that blacks only make up about 13% of the population "so it is disproportionate", actual this is Bait-And-Switch (I.e. providing a statistic that seems relative but actually has nothing to do with it. Example: if whites made up 10% of the population but committed 70% of the violent crimes then the percentage of population has nothing to do with it - the percentage of the violent crimes IS the relative statistic.)... The statistical fact is that black persons are committing a larger percentage of the crimes - this is why they are making up a larger percentage of persons interacting will law enforcement and populating the prisons... This is directly linked to the lack of fathers in the families - which is a direct result of "liberal" policies (note that a goal of the Black Lives Matter organization is full destruction of the father/mother family head... This is because BLM is a Marxist organization, not a black betterment organization ... In fact they have said that their allies are not people who desire the betterment of the black community, but rather people who hate capitalism). Go research it. Bring obedience to God into our society will fix these problems because obeying God results in father AND mother heads of families with children who show respect for their parents and then adults who show respect for laws. Self control that results in avoidance of drug addiction, porn, and violence. The country is dying because it has rejected God - and God is letting it smother under its own sins.
