In a time of SOCIAL ACTIVISM and as GLOBAL CITIZENS connected to ALL of HUMANITY, not just the ones in the cities, or countries where we live, HOW can the average individual HELP PREVENT future tragedies like the ones Emmett Till, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd endured?

Yes, those lives mattered. All of them have one thing in common; they were innocent but accused. No one should be treated that way and people should fight for rights.George Floyd --- Trying to use a fake $20 bill (which he may not have known it was fake) turned into his death. A white officer pressed his knee down on George Floyd's neck, stopping the flow of blood to his brain. Another officer was pinning his knees to the ground. Another officer was pinning his feet to the ground and the last officer was standing there with his hands in his pockets watching Floyd suffer. George Floyd did nothing wrong to the point where the 4 white officers had to use that much force. He never resisted arrest. His life mattered just like Trayvon Martin's.

today we'd use social media to quickly spread a controversial idea, but in the eighteenth century, the printed pamphlet was highly effective. and thomas paine took full advantage of it. on january 9, 1776, when paine published his pamphlet, "common sense," he wanted to push the american people toward independence from britain. it ultimately ignite the american revolution. thomas paine argued that the monarchy was evil and should be rejected as a form of government. to underscore his point, he cited the bible to argue his case -- in judges 8: 22-23: "the israelites said to gideon, 'rule over us, you and your son and your ' gideon told them, 'i will not rule over you. the lord will rule over you'" (nrsv).
