How long will we sit around and watch, while our heroes our slain and murdered?
This post is reality, Black reality. I remember growing up and riding around in my cousins 1988 Pontiac 6000 listening to lectures by the Honorable Louis Farrakhan as well as the late Dr. Khalid Muhammad and being mesmerized. During those times the only examples of a Black men available were NWA, LL Cool J, Micheal Jordan, Micheal Jackson, Eddie Murphy and The Fresh Prince.
Having the opportunity to hear Black men like this speak broadened my horizons. The showed me eloquently speaking Black individuals who weren't afraid to stand up for what they believed
Dr. Khalid Muhammad taught a brutal truth. He was infamously criticized as being a racist and anti-Semitic. If you really take time out to listen to what he is saying that is exactly not what it is. Though through the way he expresses his points it may seem like he was being spiteful and hateful. He was just a passionate historian spreading his word. The truth sometimes is like bad tasting medicine. It can be bitter to the taste, and hard to swallow. But in then end, it's good for you.
Proceed With Caution.
OneLove & BlaxLife
