    Black america is a divided people, we need to work on issues we agree on and stop attacking people we maynot care about. So what if Jesses or Al gets a lot of publicity. It our black youth who are suffering from a promiscrous or gang violence mentality brought by the negative lyrics and lifestyle of these criminal and gangster rappers. Its funny how I watched medical experts and children experts give proof and criticism of high calorie food commercials and its influence on child obessity, yet we do not protest the effects of negative images in music videos and music lyrics of criminal and gang rappers.

    Black America! Where did that name come from? So called Black People are lacking knowledge of self. African American, Black, Colored, Afro American where did all these names come from? How can anyone with a nationality have so many lables? All of thse names fall up under the 14th amendment. We are indigenous to this land as well as planet we need to wake up and learn who and what we are! Many people can`t deal with facts, something that can be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Don`t blame hip hop for the ills in our midst; blame the ill informed in our midst! If we really want good clean hip hop why don`t we hear or see KRS-ONE ,Rakim, Nas , Most Def , Talib, Kanye and many more positive artist on your radio shows or t.v. programs? Why do so called black leaders only talk about civil rights and slavery we have a vast his-story in this country. As Moors our true nationality we were here in America when those so called slave ships arrived. Nationality belonging to a specific land mass black not a landmass! Africa a continent not a country ,so what part of Africa are you from? The red, black and green flag not representing a nation! We haven`t learned to play ball on their court! Google Noble Drew Ali 1928 Pan American Conference the first person a Moor, so called blackman in America to be commission to teach Islam in 1913. We are educated now, but with a western state of mind!
