Beatitudes for Black Lives Matter

In Matthew 5:1-12, the Beatitudes Message is a Black Lives Matter type of message. Jesus is aware of the current oppressive realities of the crowds that gather to listen to him. This crowd has been waiting for a savior from the oppression of the Roman Empire for 400 years…much like our African-American sisters and brothers have been waiting for over 400 years for their full humanity and worth to be recognized individually and societally.
