You can't fight 'INJUSTICE' or 'CORRUPTION' when you're not a true follower of your soul. You can't fight 'OPPRESSION' when you 'THINK' and 'ACT' like the oppressor. You can't become a 'CHANGE' when you keep on accepting the same old results.You can't become a valuable source in society when you devalued your brothers and sisters from distant lands.It is impossible to change America when you see foul practices at institutions and don't speak up because it is not affecting you. What affect others should affect you mentally and physically, be part of the 'HUMAN RACE.' Be your brother's/sister's keeper no matter what religion or race he or she is. Be the change that you want to see in America.","author":"Henry Johnson Jr","tags":["africa","america","corruption","devalued","human-race","injustice","oppression","racism"],"id":312637,"author_id":"Henry+Johnson+Jr"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":3,"pages":1}}
