Black Lives Matter Now And Forever
This article is a little different, a departure from the usual content we share with our audience. Nefarious Supply was started with one goal and that was to create a platform for underground artists to thrive, and while that is still our main goal as a team we cannot just sit by silently with the recent events that have taken place in the United States. Nefarious Supply is made up of a community of minorities and we wanted to share our support with the most recent protests that have taken place in multiple states across the United States as well as globally due to the abhorrent murder of George Floyd at the hands of the police who have the oath to protect and serve. Unfortunately, George Floyd’s murder is a trend in the United States, and it is with great regret that his name must be added to the list of black victims who have lost their lives due to excessive force, and the racism that plagues this country. The unfortunate victims of police violence and racism also include Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Eric Garner, Sandra Bland, Stephen Clark, Alton Sterling, Trayvon Martin, Micheal Brown, Tony Mcdade, Kendrec Mcdade, Oscar Grant, Kenneth Chamberlain, Kimani Gray, Samuel Dubose, Philando Castile, Freddy Grey, Amadou Diallo and so many others whose lives have been snuffed out.
At the end of the day, America is a diverse country made up of people, and cultures that have contributed to the melting pot of what America is. it also a country where social mobility is a luxury not known to many parts of the world. But despite the positive attributes America has we would be ignorant to not acknowledge that this country has a problem with race that dates all the way back to its roots, and enough is enough. We as the youth have a responsibility to stand up and fight for what is right, and the change we want to see. We as the youth are responsible for setting the example for future generations and the ideals we want to uphold. Our voices deserve to be heard, and it is our constitutional right to get out there and made them heard no matter how much pushback we get from the current administration, and other who want to keep the tradition of racism alive we have to draw the line and take a stand and let them know enough is enough. All lives cannot matter until BLACK LIVES MATTER, and that is the current reality. The Nefarious Supply staff is standing on the right side of history and standing side by side, and in solidarity with the protesters and we will do everything we can to help fight to combat racism.
