Although they shout it to the mountaintops, “Black Lives Matter,” self-worth is something many Black people have yet to believe.

Human suffering is everywhere, but I don't worry about life circumstances because I understand we live according to our personal karmic footprint. If we created good causes in our past lives, our negative karma is reduced. If we committed negative acts against humanity, animals or Nature, our negative karma is increased. Christianity teaches, “You reap what you sow.” Karma is the same concept. The universal law of Cause and Effect never gets it wrong.

It's hard to accept that we created the situation we're in today, so much easier to blame it on parents, teachers, significant others, or on the Black human race. Everyone blames the Black human race, even members of the Black human race, themselves.

Let's face it, humans can be more vicious than animals. Animals kill in order to survive. Humans kill for the power, the sport of it, or to keep up with their Joneses. Animals, not so much. If animals feel their survival threatened, they will offer a response. If they feel driven to feed a family, then someone has got to die and only the strong survive. Such is not the case with people, especially Black people. We kill each other for sport.

I love the color of blackness—blue/black warm, tattered yet standing strong, beautiful in appearance, in strength, in swagger and style. Black people are emulated and admired (secretly) all over the world. But if they only believed. Since they don't believe they are beautiful or powerful, self-hatred looms large (secretly) in the black community and self-hatred gets expressed in the way we kill each other off, physically or spiritually. “Black lives matter,” is just a slogan because we are so enamored with the notion of appearing rich, feeling important, or living white that we are willing to kill for it.

Whether we kill bodies, the human soul or dreams and aspirations, Black people do this to each other on a daily basis. They feel it's not a crime against humanity because—are black people human?  Whether acquiring worldly possessions, attaining political power, or building self-esteem through bullying, all can lead to the indiscriminate killings that humans inflict on each other, and Black people excel at this, just as they excel at anything else they try to achieve. Everyone likes the phrase, “Black lives matter,” but given the opportunity to undermine or destroy another black life or another black spirit, far too many black people take this opportunity. Black lives matter only so much.

The human race has much to learn from the animal kingdom. You don't kill unless you must. You don't kill once the other is down. I think everyone knows the truth:  In the long run, the white race has nothing to fear. Although Black people are beautiful, strong and resilient and although they shout it to the mountaintops, “Black Lives Matter,”  self-worth is something many Black people  have yet to believe. It'll take lifetimes to kill off the Black human spirit and soul so until then, white people can rest easy. Black people must first destroy each other; then they'll get around to the white human race. So what does this all have to do with karma? 
Do I really need to ask?
