leave it to a black man
|
Was Dr. Martin Luther King's cause a cause for action or just a day of silence? This movement was for not just peace, but unity amongst black people and racial dignity as well needed. I think we just remember his dream, it was not just for integration, but just like Malcolm X he was revered for momentus action. Where does the black man have peace? In most popular modern day music, we are promoting to be dead to ourselves. We're paranoid of the police and others, when we expose our deeds willingly and proudly to all. In movies we seem to be looking for a check and not respect. Artistic creativity should be more than a car, over sexual sensuality, and a house. Creativity looks beyond barriers and takes new respective heights. In movies, a black man as president, there goes the white house. A black man with his own Airline, there goes corporate America. A black man moves into a good neighborhood, there goes the neighborhood. What we have is a negative outlook for the black man in America, which gives every cause for others to look down, cast down, and keep down. Young black children have to be able to see better and know better or we will continue to be falling class citizens. Most of these movies and music are good for a laugh and entertainment. But historically in this country if you were to go back to when blacks were portrayed the same way in early racist film. Portrayed as illiterate, insecure, and black skin was aloofed. I understand that deep behind the curtain someone is making a market for this, but it takes some standing up and keeping your God given soul to not sell it so that these people can undoubtebly make not just a lot of money, but a lot of laughs not with us but at us. Integration is only visual, because hate can still be in the hearts of mankind towards each other. So it was a call for integrated minds, where people think, talk, and act together as one. Everything was taken at slavery, to think of the minds of those enslaved at that time being distant from the truth. And years later when we have it, we don't want it. So we accept the bigotry and lies. One must learn himself as a human being and then demand it. If not, they'll leave the money, sex, and drugs to you. When it comes to leadership, true ownership, real talent, and creative thinking, they'll know just who to leave it to, hopefully you, the Black man
