Ppl like Star and Bill I dont 100% agree with because they are getting ahead by putting down those in their own race. Well, Bill, he got his issue legit, at first doing stand up. Back then, he was TRUE to his race. He didnt put his ppl down...
Now that he got something and now the whole country empathizes with him because of what happen to Ennis, now he is really popular with some folks. And that is cool. This is a free country...
BUT
I believe as an African American woman in this country there is a way to
succeed' without putting down my own ppl or yes, I will go there...selling out!
Thats it...Star and BC are sellouts!
Is Obama a sellout? NO! Because he is staying true to his people AND at the same time reaching out to a country that needs REAL leadership in office. His appeal crossovers race and that is an act of God.
He is an example of what I am talking about.
But in order for that to happen, this country DOES has to openly and honestly address racial issues.
And we cant get all scared and whatever when someone's been talking like Wright.
It is called Black empowerment. That is more powerful than Bills millions to the UNCF. Or colleges...or Star's futile attempts at enlightening us on how we, too, can make it if we give our race the finger.
No, I'd rather not burn my bridges.
That's real, that's truth, and it is HIGH time that this stuff has come to this country's head.
OBAMA - US FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT! For shizzle, for rizzle!!!!
