Stop the Mis-education of the Negro.....Learn IT for Yourself

Image
While was at work the other day, I had a discussion with a very young Black man about the importance of voting in this country. The conversation began with his statement about Barack Obama, not doing anything for him or any president for that matter. To say the least, I went in full force on him about the importance of voting and what the Negro had to suffer to even receive this simple freedoms in this country. The right to vote signifies our right to choose for our self what is right for us. After this young man seen how very passionate I am about exercising our right to vote in this country....after 100 years of oppression by the White man, and only being granted this unalienable right just  47 year ago the year I was born, civil right was passed in February in 1964. I also informed him that this right is as young as I am, so don't get comfortable with that mindset. Today in this Election year, with so much at sake in this country that concern All Americans, I am worried a...

Trayvon must Have Justice

Image
I don't  know about You family...but I feel that I have been slapped in the face, punched in the eye, and kicked in the stomach on this Saturday....as I heard the jury find George  Zimmerman "Not Guilty"... For the murder of Trayvon Martin... As I sat in stunned dis-belief....I let out a scream of outrage that this was some real life truth and it felt like a nightmare.... How was this man found not guilty for the death of an unarmed 17 yr. old black teenager  ....but Michael Vick went to jail for fighting dog...dogs that I might add that has been breed just for fighting in the pit for a very long time in this country. How does that happen?....well it happens because this system was not built to serve Black people in America.... In the back of my mind I knew this would happen...I was hoping that I was being cynical & jaded about the Judicial System in America....that today this country elected its first Black President...that the jury would look beyond racial stereotyp...

Whaaat!!!! I'm not Black enough

Image
I got up this morning and turned on my radio to listen to my favorite morning show. I must say I am alway surprised to hear about another person criticising Barack Obama on his Blacknees. http://www.google.com/search?q=pic+of+president+obama&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GGLT_en Someone please tell me what does it mean to be Black enough. Please some one chime in on this shit..... It seem that it is a never ending line of folks Black and White who will stand up to pull something out of there A.... just to have something to say to get their time in the spotlight. All of the thing that is going on in this country and around the world, people are still trying to determine if President Obama is black enough. I just don't understand that kind of question, what in hell does it mean to be Black enough. From the looks of his skin and the hell that he must endure to do his job. I can say with confidence that, 1) he is black...
