Bigups"Havard. wow great job my brother."-slowdenfast

SDF, bro, this is actually not all that rare of African - particularly Nigerian - immigrants to Europe, or America, and acheivement patterns even continue into non-Affirmative Action schools like California, unlike us - African Americans.

We need to value achievement the way other nationalities like Africans, Asians, Jews and Asians do and stop being jealous of them at times. To do this, a constant value progressions need to be persued.

i just saw you being interviewed by some reporter about your supporting Obama and this is what i wrote:

good job brother good job

and the moral of the story?

knowledge trumps ignorance

kindness builds bridges even to those who would mean to embarrass or hurt

will be checking for your band and hope you guys come to jersey

Need to increase your website sales?You can't do it alone, add an affiliate system and let others promote your site,The GAS aff system is the answer,Because other aff programs require very hard coding to install,GAS-AFFILIATEdotCOM is where it's at.

yes, castro built state of the art concentration camps, and inovated new torture methods. it's people live more natural now, no electricity, no cars. you have to love fidel castro

[skeetrosauce]

Now thats what I call a Revolutionary.

Castro has done great things for his people.

Che was a great man, and a martyr.

[AntiAntiAmerica]

"The Wall" meaning the wall that Che Guevara so happily put people up against to shoot them.

But Che didn't always bother with the wall. One of his favored methods of killing was to tie his victim to a chair, gag him, walk around the room a bit ranting at him, and then slowly walk up, pistol in hand — and splatter the victim's brains and skull across the room while his companions watched.

[AntiAntiAmerica]

You have to love the irony of a guy working for "the oppressed" while wearing a shirt emblazoned with the image of Che Guevara.

"To send men to the firing squad, judicial proof is unnecessary...These procedures are an archaic bourgeois detail. This is a revolution! And a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate. We must create the pedagogy of the The Wall!" --Ernesto 'Che' Guevara

I have some Mahotella Queens, Township music, some Wozani Mahipi for you. In the center of inhumane humanity, arose, blossomed and yet its also uniquely for me, in Texas. Like some kind of wonderous, audacious, unstoppable, mesmerizing flower; like a flower busting through waste, in a junkyard, in a Township, SA, 1978, and lives! That would be amazing. But to germinate half way around the world in a barren parking lot and bloom. That's crazy @#^! Good @%@^%! Grace, Peas, love.

Self Discrimination? lol That's it! I'm being oppressed! By myself or whom I call the 'him-me' or The ManinMe.

But, conveniently, I am also "The Man".

That's kinda cool!

[eightone81]

Man!!...it is a breath of fresh air to find people like you...you are truly blessed...keep on

[blackberryjuice1]

I love how they quickly skipped over Derrick in the intro, LOL!

[27Morpheus]

Thanks. Really, it's rood for anyone else to tell one of us what should be done when they can't relate, but I can so I'll say:

It's about conquering, and not allowing certain things and distractions to consume us, and that includes hate we have for everyone including our own.

We've skipped our countries greater values in favor of the negatives (prejudice, misogyny, consumerism capitolism). Not all of course.
