After hear­ing the news about five-​year-​old Shaniya Davis, I am fed up with the vio­lence. It is a ter­ri­ble tragedy that we live in a world where these types of crimes are even an issue.


As blog­gers, we have a voice that we can use to raise aware­ness to the prob­lem of vio­lence. Let’s pledge to post about vio­lence at least once a month while mak­ing an effort to pro­mote non-​violence in some way in our daily lives. Let’s make an effort to show our sol­i­dar­ity over this prob­lem by dis­play­ing this ban­ner on our blogs:

Join the cause and spread the word. We have a voice and let’s raise it unit­edly against vio­lence.

Thanks for read­ing,

Thank you for this post, Toya! I’m not sure if I wanna com­mit to blog­ging about vio­lence once a month (will depress me) but I will def­i­nitely add the badge to my blog. So sad what hap­pened to Shaniya D. We have to do bet­ter — and stop wor­ship­ping money. When some­one is in need, let’s help them..because the mother was obvi­ously des­per­ate for some help from some­one.

Thnak you for your com­ment Jara. I under­stand that about not want­ing to blog about it once a month but we can raise aware­ness. It is a hor­rifc tragedy what hap­pened to Shaniya. What’s worse is that she is not the only one. Around this world this hap­pens. Money is at the root of this. This woman (her mother) had to be out of her mind to do this. I mourn for the future of our chil­dren.

Toya, I truly appre­ci­ate you tak­ing the ini­tia­tive and pro­vid­ing a means for us to do some­thing to com­bat the sense­less vio­lence. It is truly empow­er­ing when you feel so pow­er­less to make any mean­ing­ful con­tri­bu­tion. Thanks for reminder me that every step, even baby steps are impor­tant when taken in the right direc­tion. I have heeded your call.

Thank you for fol­low­ing Toya that means a lot. But this is not about me. We need each other as a peo­ple more than ever. Things are get­ting out of hand. People just can’t co exist with peo­ple any­more. Everybody is mad and for what? Many peo­ple have no sense of self. Parents don’t teach. Children can’t learn. Look at some­thing so small as restau­rants they are boom­ing!!!! No one cooks any­more there for you don’t get that fam­ily time like back in the old days. Im not hat­ing peo­ple need there jobs but there has to be a median. Thank You for that Post. Sometimes we all need a wake up call to what’s really impor­tant.
