PROPAGANDA
Information put out an organization or government

Why is it that we are so subject to the things that are put out for us to see. Why is it that we are always vurnable to such mess that is put out and we are not even trying to find out the resources of this thing that is put out. I am reading the book on Marcus Garvey that gives real philosophies and opinions. But are we really trying to find out about some of these things that are said about us and to us to the degree that it is hurting our race not so say to our families and communities as well as our minds. I don’t find none of this shit funny at all. I have to say that I used to be one of those that did not pay any attention to all of this stuff that is said about us, but as you know that when you grow older you get wiser and you learn more about who you are and what you represent. We are to represent a people who have had struggles and trails all of our lives and we today as we speak now are still having these things going on now that was talked about then. I just hope that one day we as a race will see what is being done to us and we will see that it was to bring us down and not help us. We have leaders that are dying trying to help us in our struggle and we are not doing a damn thing to help the cause a all. I talked about earlier how that when we had things of our own that we did not want it and now we are fighting to keep what little that we have and that is not a whole lot at this time and date. When are we, as race of people will learn that we really have to fight to stay above the water that constantly comes to drown us out and sink what we have. I will tell you that I am not the one that will go out and try to fight the cause and try to go and fight for what we do not have. I am the one that is gonna look out for me first and not the one beside me. I feel that we have to be held accountable for our own selves and our own actions and well being, we have to learn to go out and fight the fight for self and not for the man beside you. So if you may say that it is not right to think that way but I will tell you that first I do not believe in foreign aid. I do not believe In taking care of some one else before I take care of self. The way of this world and what this world has shown us is to take care of you and you only, for you have to get yourself together before you can go and help someone else. This is something that is taught to us and we are young and growing up in our respective homes as kids. Mom always told us that we have to take care of you and only you for she is not gonna be there all the time. Now why do you think that she said this and made this statement? Well we have to see things from our parents eyes and what they had to go through to get to where they are today or where they are going now. If you have not read the book Slave Community then you should. It is a book by the one Marcus Garvey again about how our parents were raised and why they do us the way that they do us today as far as punishment and discipline. We have to really take in account of what our parents had to endure in their time and age. It is not the way that we are today. Our parents went through a lot of hell to get to where they are now. So my people let’s start to take a stand on what we believe to be true and not take in account of what someone else says and does. We live in a society where everything is based on propaganda and shit that is put out there to feed into our minds to try to destroy us. We must learn as a race to get the right information that will lead us to victory and not disputation. That is why that we need to read more and learn how to utilize our libraries and all the right information that is out there for us. So do not bow down to what everyone says or what you may see on the TV and all the other means of information that we get. All I am trying to say is that we need to be up on our shit. Take time to make time to spend time and get the information right.

LOVE, PEACE, AND POWER
