Where's our justice as women?
Are we justified by simply being women? Are we justified when we're born from our mother's who a woman?
Are we justified because we are needed to recreate and keep human beings on this earth?
With this male driven world it seems so evident that our justification has been put to the back burner. Where's our time to get justice for being raped,abused,and used?
Where's our justice as single mothers from "baby-daddies" who abandoned them and her five children? Or did we forget that justice matters because we're to busy having to feed the mouths and clothe the backs our her fatherless babies?Maybe we forgot when the courts insist that we dumb-down the abuse and hell we went through because he has legal "rights" to visitation of the children.
Where's our justice as women hoping that she will have enough food to feed her children that day? Is it the promise that she can go to college and earn a degree to be financial free that brings hope of justice?
So now, maybe she has done all the right things. Appeased the court complied to visitation,went to college,and is seeing a shrink twice a week to heal from the rape,neglect,and abuse.Maybe she's now getting her long-time-coming justice.
But then to everyone's "surprise" her drug dealing baby-daddy has been shot on her sons birthday. Oh god! so now what? She has been called to rush to the hospital. "Wait though, I'm studying for my college exam that's tomorrow and I not finished cooking dinner!",she thought.She seen him in the hospital.He's in and out of consciousness, in critical condition, but they assured her that he'll live. "Well, I guess my babies will she their daddy again",she thought. Then again, is that time they visit him again, the time when his enemies find him and make sure he's dead this time?. The answer is unknown.
Some justice huh?
*This story is a bit revised but based off of a true story. There was a shooting across the street from my house last night. Apparently I live in a "good" area but anyone who is paying attention will see that it is deteriorating. There were two men shot. One dead and the other alive.
This morning I seen someone I known for years, my cousin's close friend. I spontaneously asked her if she heard about the shooting and she informed me that it was her baby father who was shot but survived and his friend died. I know him too and can say that he is trouble. This happened on his sons birthday. However, as much as the attention is on him, what about her? The one who was abused by him for years. Where's her justice?
