Hello, beautiful black people. Hope you are well, well, ever you are. This is my premise. This is my premise. If it take you being affected negatively for you to care, for you to have compassion, then on a basic human level, you do not yield. A fuck. To this real 9 EFA 100% human being divine, may and divine set 100% 9 EFA to the core.
That is a profound truth that I believe and I live it. Real compassion moves before a personal impact arrives. It seems suffering across the room, across the street, across the country and respond anyway. That's the whole point of it, of caring and compassion. What I am describing has a name. It is called selective empathy. White people are inundated with selective empathy. And it runs deep in this white people led society. White people rally around causes. The moment those causes touch their household, their families, their zip code, their children. Before that moment, it was all silence.
Before that moment, it was indifference dressed up as neutrality. The civil rights movement exposed this clearly. Black communities endured decades of documented terror. Legends, bombings, economic strangle, while millions of white Americans watched and called it someone else's problem. The moment on the rest reach white neighborhoods, white people suddenly everyone had an opinion. Suddenly everyone wanted peace. They wanted the discomfort to stop not the injustice. Hence is what white people are showing us again today in September of 2026.
True compassion operates on principle. The meot principles, not proximity. It asks, is this wrong? Full stop. The answer drives the action regardless of whether the person suffering looks like you. Live near you or share your experiences. The people who built something lasting, fentanylou hammer, bear rusting, junk louis. They carried that principle into rooms where nobody who looked like them held power. They gave a damn about people they had never met. Futures they would never see. That standard still stand today in me, in my children, in my friends, in the people that I associate with,
in the people that I love the most. And I know I am right and I am holding on to it until I move to the other side. I do not hate, I elevate.
