We rise hopeful like every other time even when things seem impossible
Those who are and will be our successors in leadership must know at this point in our time and in history we rose many times and we continue to rise. We rise hopeful like every other time even when things seem impossible; when leadership fails to protect citizens, when human rights movements once again take the center stage in our modern-day society. When being an African descendant in this modern world, and the question still is asked if we belong? When justice fails the voiceless and when nothing makes sense the perseverance and faith in our human nature leads us to prevail in these darkest moments and as the new generation, we continue to demand fairness and equality, in our local, national, and global communities reminding us all to act and lead consciously.
The struggle of hope seems to only apply when there is much suffering in life. The sudden arrival of a global pandemic known as Covid-19 caught us all off guard where much irreparable circumstances came about and among which lives were lost and cannot be replaced. This viral pandemic created much pain and suffering on all humanity. We witnessed all the hopeless situations across all communities globally even with our most advanced and smart medical technologies in play. We are reminded that there truly is nothing that can replace the uniqueness of human lives on this earth.
However, nothing is unreachable for humans. We learn and we grow and adjust in every condition to survive and renew and blossom over and over through the seasons.
There is still so much to say but a lot more that we all need to do. Let us remember history has its place in our current time therefore we must protect our elders in the society because they are the cushion of knowledge and wisdom of our Global society losing them is like losing the ozone of Humanity of this humanitarian climate change.
The social economic situation at this moment is blurring and difficult on many citizens. Yes, we still have to live and we may always think of our business, worry about making money, landing the next contract, attaining that next big deal position, or whether it be more inhumane to fire that employee, deport the poor immigrants, prey on the weak and vulnerable, disrespect each other; as of now these matters we face stares into the eyes of death, the call for unity and collaboration in humanity is much needed now more than ever before.
The simple call of many voices through the generations is in respect to our human dignity and nothing else. As the black community suffered in many levels and continues to suffer into current day society, we can for sure do better!
Let us be kind to one another and renew our moral obligation to build a constructive freedom and equality of love and acceptance in the world.
The call for social equality, responsible leadership and sharing opportunity and resources is more than ever a must priority for future growth as our world is becoming a small space with the rapid advancement of technology.
We are inspired by those leaders who have seen and done unthinkable things to advance our human purpose and passion, as quoted:
”I am influenced more than ever before by the conviction that social equality is the only basis of human happiness ” – Nelson Mandela.
We must give applause to our leadership in Canada from coast to coast to coast from our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau with all the opposition’s leaders for their patriotic character towards humanity. The diligent dealing with the crisis of the Corona virus epidemic from all the provincial and municipal leaders to every citizen in this nation.
We need to be wise to not fall prey to society’s class war, to politics and not to forget our share of responsibility in this time of our history and this epidemic crisis. There’s lot of work to be done. After all the rain there’s renewed life and hope.
We celebrate, remember, and honour all the community members past and present who continuously against all odds do phenomenal work with what they must do and be the voice for the voiceless by making changes to advance our human society .
