BlackLivesMatter

Thinking about all the chaos in the world, my heart and mind force me to think of various things. Well, while living in a country like India, you are supposed to do a lot of things, but you will agree with me that there are many things, which really don't make sense.

We'll think about that later. Right now, the thing, which is keeping my mind occupied is this worldwide campaign or protest with "BlackLivesMatter". Every individual has senses, that allow him or her to feel. Just imagine, what would happen if those senses of yours start feeling rejection, hatred, and enmity. Obviously, that will make you feel bad, develop worst thoughts, which may lead you towards depression. I think that's what is happening with people like George Floyd. A person living a normal life suddenly became a victim of someone's hatred and absurd power handling.

Its really stupid how some idiots think, having a specific color tone or background (religion, caste, or origin) is going to make him or her superior. That's simply outrageous and also provides a question on the education of these people. Don't these people understand that basic science behind someone's skin tone is their habitat? It's brutal to think that God wanted someone superior, which is why he has given that person white skin, besides, he made that so-called person physically less powerful than those with dark skin.

Well, if you don't agree then, take a look at the research paper by Peter Elias. In his research, he found that skin with darker pigmentation has enhanced functioning. Their laboratory-based research found that darkly pigmented skin has a stronger resistance towards water loss with better antimicrobial defense.

Their research further states that the pH level of dark-toned skin individuals is substantially low as compared to the ones having light skin tone or the white people. Now, the thing which makes it interesting is that lower pH level makes the skin acidic and such a quality allows black people to become strong against microbial pathogens. Also, it makes them moisture resistant and further enhances their strength and cohesion.

So, if that skin tone is going to make me stronger and resilient, I am definitely going to crave for it. But if you don't want to relate it with science, why do you have to make it a symbol of hatred. Why can't people think that God wanted differently toned people, just because he wanted some variety?

Think for yourself, what if there are all white color dresses in your wardrobe or what if, you have just black. Even nature teaches us diversity. The mountains, rivers, and the desert all are known as the symbol of teachings given by nature for ages. Even rainbow has 7 varieties of colors, then why can't we just hang around with 3 or 4 of them among ourselves.

There is a theory of evolution, which states that our ancestors have moved from Africa and by leading their way to fewer UV rays affected places, their skin tone got lighter. Well, the only thing this theory makes me understand, is that we all are one. Maybe our external physical appearances differ, but that's not the case with our hearts.

People say a single sheet of paper can't decide their future, then how the hell is a complexion, which isn't even chosen by you is the mark of some superiority or achievement. There is nothing in the world, which can make you superior if you aim for superiority. However, you can shine and become different, if you have compassion for others, that is beyond any sort of racial discrimination.

Coming back to the topic, "Why BlackLivesMatter", so the answer is simple. Every individual, who has a heart and the power to feel, must be treated with compassion and given similar importance for leading a positive and meaningful society. Not just blacks, but whites, browns, or if any other color comes into existence, later on, are important because a single skin tone has no right to tell you what you deserve!!!
