I can’t believe what you say, because I see what you do

I can’t believe what you say, because I see what you do.
James Baldwin

Is there anything more that needs to be said? Tell me who your friends are, I’ll tell you who you are? Actions speak louder than words.

Some people like to put on blast their accomplishments. They love to say they will be there for you. They say they are supportive of the community. They say they believe in right and wrong. Yet, their actions convey a completely different narrative.

I see what you do. Others see it as well.

  1. Talk is cheap, easily offered, and can be a lie. Often there is no record.

    Actions are expensive, take time and effort, might be a lie but it’s harder. Lately might be caught on someone’s phone, occasionally on a bodycam.
