i did a vid on this...i dont know if you watched it...but even tho i knew the facts I do believe that I did a poor job at presenting the information to the public. Thx for doing a better job than me and keep bringing the truth.

[ForChangeMovement]

Thanks. I mentioned your vid in part two

i hate to say this,but alot of black people want to subscribe to the idea,that they cant overcome this system of racial predujice,infact there are many who want to exploit this,many of our so called leaders,do nothing more than complain about the obvious,while not offering any tangable solutions to address our problems.

[ForChangeMovement]

Excellent point Jalil... I have many friends(white & black) who cant seem to hold down steady jobs. There is always some excuse about what someone else did. But these guys change jobs so often, it seems obvious to me that they themselves are the problem. But when they have an excuse(true or False) it makes it easy to do nothing but wait for someone else to solve your problems.

The excuse becomes a reason to remain stagnant.

Good Video..I feel that people latched on to the "Willie Lynch phenomenon" so quickly is because the letter focuses on some identifiable needs that most AA can identify with. Marketing uses this method..it is talked about in psychology and sociology. Most people dont feel like they have to research something that they feel is "real" to them because they have experienced it. Its not a theory to them.

[ForChangeMovement]

I agree. It also seems to be the same thing with religion. So many people believe in their holy texts, but have yet to read them. I just cant understand that way of thinking... Oh well...

While i may agree with certain things before doing research, I have found that the best thing to do when faced with new info, is to research

A ring around your finger won't make you a good parent. The only thing that determines what type of parent you will be is you. I know married couples who can't take care of a child if their lives depended on it.

[Pythomyst]

Wow this is some good shit! This is why I subbed you bro. The truth.

Modern day lynching exists

[netturu]

@ForChangeMovement hey hi I'm netturu or lavon dude wow i didn't even know that but i got a question if the Willie lynch letter is just a conspiracy and a theory isn't it still doing it's job give us all some where else to point someone else to blame for our problems it's still keeping black people in a state of mental bondage well we all know the problem it's ourselves and to me the only way to change it is to look at ourselves and our families and our communities and take action as a people

dam ur foine - no homo

[billk18]

[oneasha]

Um, no. It's "their".

[billk18]

it is there not their

[lynndottoues]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. This Willie Lynch letter is a theorietical mystery that is in the past. Wheter or not if the letter or speech given is true or false, their was corpal punishment. Now where in the hell did it come from.

[lanite1999]

I'm glad that you've mention the etymology of some of the words used in the so-called letter. Even when I first saw the letter on the internet around '98, I found it to be suspicious. But I had no proof either way, so I never paided it any mind. Thank you for posting the videos.
