Default Discrimination is just Wrong!

I hate discrimination whether it is against black, brown, purple, orange, green, white, or any other color or gender person, male or female. It is WRONG!!! We must all stand up and fight for our rights. We cannot sit on the sidelines and expect change to just happen. Change will not "just happen" when it happens. It is our duty to stand up and speak out for our rights and the rights of others.

Most people will just stand by and ignore what is happening to someone else or they will discount it when it happens to them. I don't know about you, but I am not one of those people. When I see something going on that is not right, I have to stand up and put my self in the middle of it. Then, boy, are people surprised. They look up and wonder what the hell is going on. I have a tendency to raise my voice and I am very professional with my words and actions when this happens. We are not supposed to stand by and let anyone be discriminated against for any reason!

We are supposed to love one another and help one another. How can you do that, if you are turning your back on what is happening? I can't turn my back. I get "pisturbed" and I speak out whether this is happening at the grocery store or a restaurant or anywhere for that matter.

I grew up with a "stand up" woman for a grandmother and she taught me to stand up and be heard. Thank you, "Mama Lou."
