He Needed Immediate Mental Health Care!

Elliot Earl Williams is a 37-year-old Army veteran with a history of mental illness. As you know, nearly half of people returning from hot zones have mental illnesses such as PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) or TBI (traumatic brain injury) and shouldn’t be blamed. He was arrested in the hotel for having a mental breakdown.

He needed immediate mental health care!

Instead, he was given nothing but disgust. He was left naked in the cell for days unable to eat, drink and even move, until he was pronounced dead. He was treaded like an animal! Luckily, there was a camera in the cell and you can see everything by yourself.

This horrible attitude towards Black veteran is an outrage.

The media keep silent but we will not!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SHARE THE NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I interviewed a woman who is terminally ill. ‘So,’ I tried to delicately ask, ‘What is it like to wake up every morning and know that you are dying?’ ‘Well,’ she responded, ‘What is it like to wake up every morning and pretend that you are not?’

Everything that happens to you is a reflection of what you believe about yourself. We cannot outperform our level of self-esteem. We cannot draw to ourselves more than we think we are worth.
