First we Capture it on camera,then we cry for justice. So yea black lives matter!

Black lives matter, is probably the latest trending hashtag on Tweeter and all social media platform courtesy of a very woke generation of digital people, over 50 years ago ,it would be so hard to get these oppressions cases surface or even get the mass sympathy its getting Today. However the question that lingers on my mind is would Martin L. King junior or even Bucker T Washington tolerate this kind of madness we see Today if this technology was presents then like it is now? The black American Society is so much obsessed with showing the world the kind of condition they are in and the Discrimination they face today that they forget they are perhaps half of the problem. Will smith said  "Racism is not getting worse,rather it is being filmed" and i cant seem to get over that statement. In many of those heartbreaking video clips we all have watched,the common denominator remains the behind the camera spectator chants and cry for help and protests that never seem to do anything significant as the victim as in the case of all the victims remain dying. Something that is quite disturbing is the fact that the film makers always stays and witness the whole scene just to ensure That their potential viewers gets the whole gists of their contents,some are doing it in order to get full first hand contents for their social media channels so that they can finally be at the front of the anti racism campaign using their unedited footages to cause an uprising, how thoughtful and most importantly how helpful to the whole fight. George Floyd particularly lost his life as we watched the police strangle him to death,each second i watched that clip and each time i play it i cant keep wishing for the people behind the camera to put their phones down and walk right up to  the police officer and save the dying Man from his death bed. But again each time i watch i am reminded of the saying that "its not the noise of the bad people,but the silence of the good people" only that for me ,silence and noise is not the literal acts of demonstration but the simple act of acting immediately they witness an action instead of loading their phones and going in air.Maybe people are dying because we have a thirst for shooting everything,perhaps if we just droped our phones for once and listened to the cry "i cant breath" and imagined that that could be us any time ,then maybe we wouldn't bother whether the whole world sees or not but the realization that we can do something right then and there will be the first step to asserting the fact that that Black Lives indeed Matter The writer is a youth Activist and a Teacher Fred Osiro 0702120503 Tweeter @Hon.Osiro
