McDonald\u2019s workers have staged walk-outs and have protested outside of restaurant locations all across \u00a0the country, demanding $15 an hour for their services. On April 15, 10,000 frustrated employees and supporters marched through the streets of New York City to the Times Square McDonald\u2019s to express their grievances publicly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, in the shadowy confines of an office in Dallas, Texas, Matt Walsh, a contributor at <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.theblaze.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Blaze<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a news and entertainment website founded by conservative radio personality Glenn Beck, is responding to the McDonald\u2019s employees. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Walsh mentions that he had to work 10 years before earning a \u201ccomfortable living\u201d and points out that if McDonald\u2019s employees were to receive $15 an hour, they would be making more money than teachers, firemen, and EMTs, in a letter titled: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fast Food Workers: You Don\u2019t Deserve $15 an Hour to Flip Burgers, and That\u2019s OK.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In July 2015, presidential hopeful Martin O\u2019Malley addressed a crowd at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/nbcblk\/reporters-notebook-sanders-slips-omalley-misses-blacklivesmatter-wins-n394746\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Netroots Nation Conference<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a communion of activists demanding that he address criminal justice and police brutality. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When they shouted, &#8220;Black lives matter!&#8221; the mantra of those opposed to the killing of black Americans at the hands of police in recent months, O&#8217;Malley responded: &#8220;Black lives matter. White lives matter. All lives matter.&#8221; The mostly black demonstrators, responded by booing him loudly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile in the cozy enclosure of a radio station in New York, ESPN sports analyst and radio personality Stephen A. Smith offered a rebuttal to the crowd in Arizona: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m a black man.

Fast food workers don\u2019t think that their toil is more significant than a teacher\u2019s. But a presidential candidate can\u2019t ignore a crowd\u2019s cry for change and offer a clich\u00e9 as a solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coupling that with the equally unfair notion that black people don\u2019t get upset about black on black murders is wholly ignorant. The \u201cStop the Violence\u201d movement has been active in American inner cities since 1988 and has addressed that issue aggressively. St. Louis based music producer and community leader, Rodney \u201cThe Average Joe\u201d Prather put that rhetoric in perspective by noting that \u201cafter 9\/11 nobody was asking \u2018what about American on American crime\u2019.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also wrong to dismiss a plea for living wages by devaluing work, (like using \u201cflipping burgers\u201d as an all encompassing job description for fast food workers) and cruel comparisons to skilled laborers who have not started a mass campaign to increase their own unfair wages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Malcolm X warned in 1963, \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you aren&#8217;t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apparently, not much has changed. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With great power comes great responsibility.
