and the world percieves the Black race as the door mat of the world I've always felt the best of who I and my people are. From Aretha demanding R-E-S-P-E-C-T to Ali declaring his GREATNESS.
But it is the way our beloved brother Ossie Davis put it so elequantly fashioned in a way only he could percieve that makes it all the sweeter. Words heal, especially for a people who have been so tested, demoralized and dehumanized even today.
This is the hope I see for my people not Obama's version.

This is by far one of the best quotes (and message) by our great Afrikan men I've ever read. And though I've always believed in taking the best of what Afrika has to offer no matter what country offers it and that our ancestors who fought i...n the struggle to brings us the spirit of Sankofa and struggle and resistance new exactly what they were doing -planting the seed in there words and deeds.
