@lakeside321 I feel you, but at the same time I feel that it's important not to forget the message that many leaders of the Black Power movement had that it's ultimately not about race war, but ending the system of class exploitation that allows for dehumanizing and evil systems of oppression such as racism to exist. Peace! -a young man of color

A race war is definately comming my Grandmother has been saying this for years. The pot is brewing over. No matter how many white people black people decide to sleep with,marry or have chuldren with our lives aren't improving socially economically,finacially. Black people need to wake the hell up out of this damn matrix that was designed to give us a slow poor totureous death by the very people who created this dysfunctional up society.

@jaybee60s....we start with our so called black political leaders that continue to sit by allowing this to happen, selling us out to line their pockets also. We start with our churches, there are more in our community than any other community & ensure that the so called mission society in our church have training programs: HVAC, LPN, Eletrician, etc...these training programs can & should take place in our churches. We need to be proactive & not reactive.
