Why are we still fighting for freedom and equality

Since MLK was assassinated in 1963 black folks have been afraid to move forward. We've been waiting on white folks to tell us it's okay to move forward. We've been dying at an alarming rate by racist police officers when our boys are unarmed. But we go to the service and we fight the wars for other countries to be free when in fact we're not free ourselves at home. What's it going to take for us to be free? We've been waiting on others to free us but in fact we are all we have. Revolution never happened without us doing something. We've been dying for nothing so if we're going to die let's die changing our situation.
