Thank each and everyone of you who called, posted, and text me happy birthday yesterday! It was an amazing birthday and you all made it that much more special. So here’s to another rotation around the sun. ☀️

I take each day as a challenge to be better, to be more forgiving, and have grace as god intended for us to have. I’ve had a ton of practice at it let me tell you, lol but I think we’re almost there!

Love on each other today, and remember we’re all experiencing this day on earth, for the first time together! 🫡

*** Update we have spoken to the leadership at Church hill and apologized and offered our help. They have accepted and we will be at their meeting tomorrow to offer that help. We will be deleting earlier post by mutual agreement ***

We are only here to educate, and we realize that through that process some folks will come to see that their perspectives may be harmful to the masses.

We are all tired of the crime in Lansing, and every day more and more of our neighbors fall victim to the small number of people out here committed to doing crime. Our only request is that we don’t resort to a “by any means necessary” approach.

Giving the 1% and government more over site, power and control, will only lead to more oppression and more of what we’re seeing today .

With that being said, we want to publicly apologize to the Church Hill downs association folks for posting their Fb post regarding the crime in their neighborhood, and how they plan to approach it (which we disagree with), but posting that post without having a private conversation with them first, is not how we want to be in community. We will make the private calls to express our concerns and offer our help.

We believe when we know better, we do better and we’re taking our own advice today.

Trayvon Martin was killed by a Neighborhood watch Volunteer. Who had a history of calling police on innocent kids in the neighborhood that he deemed suspect. The signs were there, nobody listened. Leave our black and brown kids alone! We got us!
