Enough is Enough ! Stop Faking Human Rights !
"Enough is enough!" Says Donald Cleveland. "Most politicians are just pulling our chain when they talk about policing and anti-discrimination changes. Instead of giving us Constitutional guarantees, they propose policy changes, executive orders and statutes. It's a joke!"
The recent multi-year spate of unarmed black persons being killed by police in the United States may have finally lit a fuse that won't be extinguished.
Cleveland authored Revitalizing America, a Declaration Against our Government, which specifically deals with the shortfalls in human rights guarantees in the United States practices, laws and Constitution. http://www.revitalizeamericanow.org
The book deals with factual accounts of human rights abuses in the United States and sets forth a series of needed amendments to the Constitution. Cleveland said, "The amendments are needed to move our human rights protections out of the dark ages when the Constitution was created. It was an era when women were still considered property and slavery was the flavor of the day! We are lucky if we can squeeze two human rights out of our Constitution. Maybe the founding fathers did a good job for their time, but that Model-T needs to become an all-electric or at least a hybrid! " He pointed out that, "Modern Europe, on the other hand, has guaranteed over 100 human rights to its citizens."
He summarized his comments by stating, " It's time we shake the politicians out of their comfort zone, and call for fundamental guarantees in the Constitution that can't be changed by the next party in power." Cleveland concluded by affirming the goals of the current rights movement in the following poem:
Our Natural Right!
by
Donald Cleveland
We're the seeds of our liberty,
And We march, we march to be free.
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White!
We're here to claim our natural right!
Don't raise your clubs to beat us down.
We march, we march while many frown.
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White !
We're here to claim our natural right!
Your knees, bullets and chokeholds kill us,
But we're all as brave as one woman on a bus.
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White!
We're here to claim our natural right!
Is it Wounded Knee, Tuskegee or Ferguson?
Will you kill my wife, my daughter, cousin or son?
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White!
We're here to claim our natural right!
Our spirits and seeds rise above race and chains.
We come in peace to erase those stains.
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White!
We're here to claim our natural right!
Let us finally breathe;
Let us finally breathe!
We're Black, we're Brown, Yellow and White!
We're here to claim our natural right!
