Change Is Gonna Come

{As i write "Change Is Gonna Come" plays}

September 21st, a man was killed, a man named Troy Davis, a black man named Troy Davis.

Convicted of accusations of murdering a police officer in 1991. No evidence, nothing, but a man, a black man Troy Davis.

Lethal injection is what ended his life.

How? Why?... What are we to do? (tears fall)

READ! SPEAK! ACT! FIGHT! FIGHT! ACT! SPEAK! READ!

Do we want this to happen again? No! (heart beats faster)

If we do nothing then no results will be shown.

As a 20 year old black man, I had to witness this. Sad, yeah. Outraged, yup. Excited, absolutely to take action against this!

As of now people, right now,
can we PLEASE love one another,
can we PLEASE treat other as we would want to be,
can we PLEASE read more,
can we PLEASE be the change we wanna see, PLEASE!
PLEASE
PLEASE, IM PLEADING.

With our efforts Change Is Gonna Come. Rest In Peace a man, a black man, Troy Davis.
