    Breonna Taylor (part 1)

    I listened to every for the past few weeks and i realized that i could no longer be silent. I understand the call to action as it pertains to our women and i choose..to fight. Times have changed yes..but many things remain the same. How can a woman be gunned down in her home and it be no real discipline handed down. Police officers are held to a higher standard but not when the innocent get killed?

    The Talk-Father and son #race and #policeBrutality

    I wanted to share with you all a small portion of my dialog with my 10 year old son Shane. Regardless of how polite you are..there may be a time in your life where you get profiled based off the color of your skin. Be proud of the melanin but also be ready to withstand the hurdles that come along with it. Our son will come home! You have the talk yet?

    The Talk? #BlackBoys and #Police

    The time has come! As a Law Enforcement Officer i had always felt that the topic just didn't apply to me. In recent weeks i couldn't help but ponder the idea..what if my son did not come home...or what he was shot by mistake by the police. Wearing the wrong clothes can draw a target but also the color of his skin could one day play a role in future nightmares. I can say that i do the best i can when it comes down to informing my children of the dangers outside the home and i pray that i never get that call and its my son on the ground. Not every officer has hate or some type of bias but the bad apples can often spoil and entire state!
