Where is our grief Counseling and where is Black Lives Matter?

This morning, on his Facebook page, my nephew tagged his friends begging them to be safe because he doesn't want to lose anymore friends.  He's 16 years old. No 16 year old should ever have to beg his friends to be careful out there.

My Hood lost two teenagers and a 24 year old young man to homicide. Not one but three people yet we haven't heard a peep out of Black Lives Matter nor has anyone offered to give our Community grief counseling. Do they think it's so normal here that we don't need it? As for Black Lives Matter, I'm going to need for them to either start giving a damn about all black lives or change their name. They claim to think black lives matter but they don't get involved unless whites and cops are doing the killing well guess what BLM the majority of black men are killed by other black men. Do you really think to the families and Communities that lose young black men every day care that these young lives were stolen by black men? They don't. They want Justice not a group who hate the police so much that they actually tell black people not to cooperate with the police. That's because like the White Middle Class, BLM, gun violence is not something they deal with daily. I understand that but unlike Whites they deny that black men kill other black men. Well guess what it happens and I'm gonna need you to either care or change your name.

The last time BLM showed up in the hood was to protest the Klan. We have had several protests in the hood to protest the genocide going on in the hood. They get online and create cute little hash tags like #sayhername and many others but they don't even try to learn the names of people killed here.

As for mental health counsling, we never get offered that. Why not? One of my dear White Middle Class female friends pointed out that the entire hood suffers from PTSD. If a white middle class woman who lives in Maine knows this why doesn't the Professional Mental Health facilities think the Community needs to heal. Are we super human that multiple homicides leave no psychological scars. Are we so strong that no one thinks we may suffer from PTSD. We are not Superhuman and we are angry, sad, and confused. We hurt just like the people in Las Vegas, New York or any other city that suffers major loss of life. The only difference is for us this is a 32 year nightmare that seems like it will never end.

To the Hood, we have to continue to love and care about each other because it seems no one else does. #onehoodoneloveuse

The KKK and White Supremists threaten to March on the Hood. Note to Nazis and Anti Nazis you are guests

On August 19, 2017 the Klan decided to March on the Hoods of Pittsburgh. The organizers wanted to march on Google but in Pittsburgh that is in the Gentrified part of Larimer. Two blocks in every direction you are in the ghetto.

The anti Klan people like Anifa and Black Lives Matter people were planning a counter protest.  The hood didn't want outsiders being Violent in our Community.

The people in da hood took to Social Media and explained to Outsiders, yes Black Lives Matter, are outsiders as most if not all never lived in the ghetto a day in their lives.

To the KKK we are going to be nice and let you know that Google is located inside the hood. Don't let the nice pictures of Gentrification fool you. You are surrounded by several Hoods and as violent as you think you are we have you beat.
Now we don't know nor do we care why you are protesting Google but we are warning you to keep it non violent.

The Counter Protesters were told the same thing at a meeting. They were told that anyone punching and hitting the Nazis we would allow the Klan to beat their asses. They were also warned against property damage which would not be tolerated.

I do not know why either of these two sides want to bring their mess to the hood but when you visit our home behave yourselves. We see enough violence in our lives we don't want nor need more. We are tired of people setting fires in our neighborhoods and leaving.

We don't like the KKK and Nazis but they have the right to March or protest as long they understand that if you don't want none won't be none. That means that if you don't want to get your ass kicked don't start a fight.

We feel some kind of a way about people who organize these large protests about the Klan but they never March to rid the hood of Drugs, illegal guns and violent crime. We also don't appreciate the attitudes of the BLM Activists about the hood. Again protest all you want but if you punch, hit, or commit an assault you are on your own. BLM are non violent but Antifa is not. They want to be protected keep it peaceful because if you start violence in our hoods we will finish it and neither side will be happy.

Protest all you want but remember your manners or deal with us.

The KKK canceled their rally and the other two groups were peaceful. Of course they didn't have anyone to counter protest.

The Hood held its on event we turned what was supposed to be a rally for hate into a rally for self love and if that is needed any where it would be here.
