As long as Black men continue this cycle of having multiple babies out of wedlock and as long as Black women ALLOW trifling brothers to impregnate them, we will continue down the path of ignorance and poverty. It is hard enough WITH an education for us to keep pace in America, oh don’t be stupid racism is as bad today as it was in 1959 when I was born, the difference is we as a people are LESS aware and educated to deal with it. Martin Luther King was successful for two reasons 1. He was EDUCATED 2. He was lead by God…..2 things WE (Black folks) have abandoned GOD and BOOKS!!!! Wake up and pray for wisdom and read books OUR history, science, and finances……we will continue to struggle until we have a paradigm shift. (That is a changed MIND)
We MUST love OURSELVES…..The Bible even tells us that we CANNOT truly love our neighbors UNLESS we love OURSELVES. And the self-hatred of our race MUST STOP. Have you ever noticed when a black person talks about loving their race or loving their people, white people get uncomfortable and often call US racist for being Pro-Black, Why is that? I’ll tell you why, when we were brought here as slaves, they changed our names, erased our past history and accomplishments, stole our family structure, introduced us to disease, beat us, raped us, and murdered those who resisted. So anytime a Black person even TODAY shows any kind of tenacity to improve, to learn, to advance, or to have an opinion about religion, history, or life in general they STILL try and censor or control it. Educated Black people terrify racist, because knowledge IS power. (With all thy getting get an understanding). They would beat a slave if they caught them reading a book, TODAY you have have to we voluntary refuse to read. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
