    @lhenle55 they were basically saying how society wants us to push the importance of saving our enviornment. but how can we really do that, (we,us being black, and people at large) when we are constantly being killed by unnecessary violence and murders. They want us to be able to save our planet, but soon there wont be anybody left.
