In my time, those in authority in America, abused their power and killed off my people.
Today the same is happening to black people.
Why is there surprise that there is retaliation. The retaliators are using the same methods as those in authority, but without the cover of authority.
Without the abuse there is no need for retaliation. In turn the retaliation will justify further abuse.
The only way forward is to build trust. Those in authority need to demonstrate that they will stop the abuse of power. The black people need to trust they will do so. The black people need to stop the retaliation so those in authority can demonstrate they will try a new way.
The only thing that can cause this to fail is if either side lies to the other. As always, truth is the answer.
What makes me sad is how little those in authority have learned over time. Those in authority have many tools at their disposal other than abusing their power. The abused have only one tool and that is to retaliate.
