Blog Post:

This blog has 2 topics but they both come together.

#1 250 young African girls went missing. They were taken by Jihadist extremists who sought the release of fellow extremist members from jail. For the return o those young girls. Africans harming Africans. Something that seems to continue to happen in our communities.

So long the African Americans and Africans have said that they hate and dislike the white people for what they did to our race throughout history. But yet we sell dangerous drugs to our own people. We beat, misuse, degrade, and kill our own people.

#2 The black 18 year old boy shot in Ferguson, St. Louis. Yes, it hurts my heart to see any young black/white or any other race shot and killed. But this situation hits home for me 'cause my friend was shot and killed by an officer in Chicago. I understand the pain and hurt being felt by the family of the victim as well as the friends and people of Ferguson, St. Louis. I send my sorrow and my prayers to everyone.

But people use this situation to harm others and rip apart the city of Ferguson. Makes them part of the problem, not the solution. But most importantly, you take away from those to have the opportunity to peacefully protect, to get their own message out.

So as a while, we need to sit down and look at who the real problem is, and who is really destroying our communities. It ain't the white people. We are so quick to blame them for everything that goes wrong in the black nations around the world. It's nobody's fault but our own.

We need to let the past be the past and start building a better future.
