Murder Was The Case That They Gave Me? How many young black men can repeat these words in jails across the land on a daily basis? When will many of us make moves to stop all of the black on black crime? When will we exhibit brotherly love? Will young black men stop dying over such ridiculous stuff as bumping into someone in a store? Will young brothers ever stop dying over eating the last potato chip in the bag, or drinking the last of the cool-aid in the fridge? This is a phenomenon that we must stop soon! It’s awful that some of our best and brightest are taken from us so often over some of the silliest things you have ever seen!

Super Bowl hero Plaxico Burress is done for the year. The New York Giants fined and suspended Burress for the rest of the regular season. The team also placed him on the reserve non-football injury list so he can’t come back for playoffs.

What is Mayor Bloomberg thinking? First Michael Vick, now this! When will there cease to be overkill over the off field efforts of black athletes? The guy is already suspended for the season! If Peyton Manning, or Eli Manning were in this same situation, would the reaction be the same? Mayor Bloomberg in featured in the last video clip railing as if this young man is Public Enemy #1! Is Mayor Bloomberg using this situation with Mr. Burress as a bully pulpit for his supposed tough stance on crime?

Marriage is like an adhesive, when you separate it, there is a tearing emotionally,spiritually,physically.
How am I suppose to love my mate?
Why do some mates look for something to argue about?
How am I suppose to act in my future marriage?
These answers and much more in one of the most awesome sermons that will enhance your marriage!

Proper Decorum for November 5th Provided Obama Wins!

2008-10-30T11:37:00.001-07:00

Proper Decorum for November 5th Provided Obama Wins!

This was hilarious! November 5th will be a day that will live in the annals of American History whether Senator Obama wins or not! Yet, we are looking forward to seeing Senator Obama become President Obama!

Someone sent this to me, I thought that I would pass it on!

Good Morning My People -

After watching the final debate the other night, it dawned on me that Obama could actually win this thing. If that happens, there will be a lot of people (some of our co-workers included) who will be afraid that an Obama presidency will usher in the end of days. They'll be watching us on November 5th (the day after the election) for signs of the end times.

To keep the peace and keep a lot of folks from getting nervous, I think we should develop a list of acceptable celebrations and behaviors we should probably avoid - at least for the first few days:

1. No crying, hugging or shouting "Thank you Lord" - at least not in public

2 No high-fives - at least not unless the area is clear and there are no witnesses

3 No laughing at the McCain/Palin supporters

4 No calling in sick on November 5th. They'll get nervous if too many of us don't show up. (Try to be on time and not your normal late arrival)

5 We're allowed to give each other knowing winks or nods in passing. Just try to keep from grinning too hard.

6. No singing loudly, We've come this Far By Faith (it will be acceptable to hum softly)

7. No bringing of barbeque ribs or fried chicken for lunch in the company lunchroom for at least a week (no chittlings at all) (this may make us seem too ethnic)

8. No leaving kool-aid packages at the water fountain (this might be a sign that poor folks might be getting a break through)

9. No Cupid Shuffle or Electric Slide during breaks (this could indicate a little too much excitement)

10. Please no Moving on Up music (we are going to try to remain humble)

11. No doing the George Jefferson dance (unless you're in your office with the door closed)

12. Please try not to yell----BOOOO YAH!

13. Just in case you're wondering, Doing the Running Man, cabbage patch, or a backhand spring on the highway is 100% okay.

If I've missed anything feel free to add to the list. I just want to
make sure we're all on the same page when Obama brings this thing home
on November 5th.

Now go get your early vote on, drive your cousins to the polls and let's make this thing happen!!!

Like Chris Rock said on Larry King Live last month. If people need anything done from a Black person on Wednesday Nov 5, 2008 they're wasting their time cause' aint' nothing gettin' done..

Why is Black America So Excited About That One?

2008-10-08T03:53:00.000-07:00

Why is Black America So Excited About That One? Senator John McCain’s That One comment in the debate was nothing short of condescending, and borderline racist. In my opinion, Senator McCain felt that both the campaign, and the debate were not going his way, so he resorted to using what some would call code language. Was Senator McCain so angry with Senator Obama that he had to resort to code language? Did Senator Obama’s political acumen, and verbal accuracy frustrate Senator McCain enough for him to forget that he was on worldwide television, and not in the Old South? Senator McCain why couldn’t you call your fellow Senator by his title, instead of referencing him as if he had just stole the rims off of your vehicle?

Black America has a history of having to deal with such verbal slights as Senator McCain’s. We are very disappointed in Senator McCain’s comments. When Black America finally has a candidate of its own hue that can really cut the mustard, why would he be called That One? Well I have news for Senator McCain, and the Republican Party we are going to turn out to vote for That One in record numbers! Black America is excited about fielding a respectable candidate who is articulate, graceful, and a cutting edge thinker! Yes we will vote for That One, but we will not be alone because millions upon millions of Americans of every ethnicity will also vote for That One!

I think with the increasingly racist tones of some of the Republican Ticket’s rallies, that this comment was a veiled, or subtle attempt to pander to many White Americans in swing states who are busy deciding whether or not to stomach a black man as President of the United States. My prayer is that many in this nation will see Senator McCain as out of touch, and out of ideas. America needs to forge its way into a brighter future with Barack Obama as the leader of this nation!

H-A-T-E-R-S! This is a Must See Freestyle!

2008-10-04T03:46:00.001-07:00

I found this clip and believe it or not I was so blessed by these 2 young people! They put together this project on Haters and in the midst of doing so they released some very powerful statements! One of their statements is that if one is doing anything positive, that one will have haters! The second statement was that you aint nothing if you don't have a hater! Boy that will preach, and just in case any of you having a problem with a Christian promoting this song I would just want to share a few nuggets with you.

In the Holy Writ there are what I call Biblical Haters such as Cain, Joseph's Brothers, Saul, and so many others who always had problems with the favor that God had bestowed on another individual! Why should there be any haters at all? God has uniquely endowed each of us with so much promise, and so many gifts that one should be so busy with their God Given Assignments that one should scarcely have the time to hate on anyone else! It hurts sometimes to have some hate on you without a cause, but I am letting you know that H-A-T-E-R-S come with any trip into favorable territory! Have you encountered any haters on your journey, and if not should you ask yourself some serious questions about why not?

Does the Republican Party Care About Black People?

2008-09-03T02:41:00.000-07:00

Does the Republican Party Care About Black People?

How can a serious political party be satisfied with having only 32 black delegates, which accounts for only 2% of their delegates? The Republican Party is not representative of a cross section of America! There also seems to be a dearth of strategies in the Republican Party Brain Trust to attack blacks to The Republican Party! This party needs some serious examination! In the later clips, do you see any vestige of color in the audience shots?

Can you now see why Black America is overwhelmingly for Senator Barack Obama in the Presidential Race? Can we afford to see another 4 years come and go with the concerns of Black America being spurned by a party that doesn’t even see fit to embrace people of color?

Seasonal Relationships vs. Lifetime Relationships?

2008-08-15T00:26:00.000-07:00

Seasonal Relationships vs. Lifetime Relationships?

I have a friend of many years, Prophet David Taylor, who shared the following revelation with me, He said, "Steve God Sends People Into Your Life for a Reason, or for a Season." He went on to state that the important thing for one to remember was to not confuse a seasonal relationship with a lifetime relationship. The Holy Writ says that a friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. One doesn't determine the authenticity of a true friend when the sun is shining, the authenticity of a friend is determined when it is storming.

One can have thousands of Associates, but how many true friends does one have? Were many associates there just for a season , or were they there for a lifetime? The blows that are inflected by a stranger are often painful, but we find a way to get through those attacks. However; does that change when one is attacked by one that he or she considered a friend?

The power of relationships are very important and can never be negated, but one has to have the ability to determine which ones will bear fruit for a lifetime, and which ones were just for a season. We can't do it all alone, so one will often need the support of others in one's endeavors in life. When people are sent into one's life for a season, they may be just what God ordered to get you through that season of your life. When they leave after that season that makes neither of you in most cases a bad person. It may have been simply good for that season.

Isn't it amazing that Jesus called Judas that would later betray him friend, but he would later tell Peter his trusted accomplice who only sought to prevent Jesus from dying in St. Matthew 16:22 to "Get Thee Behind Me, Satan. How can a turncoat be called a friend, and a friend that was only trying to save the life of another friend be called a devil? A betrayal or nonsupport of a friend has thrust many solidly and positively into their destinies. Sometimes for a rocket to take flight, the rocket has to first let loose of some of the weights that it started its journey with. Boy that will preach all day long! Was the departure of some friends vital to your answering yes to God, or saying yes to finally walking into your destiny?

Everyone in the Blogosphere has had a real life experience where we shocked by the actions of a so called friend. Et tu, Brute was a cry of Julius Caesar, but have there been crys of Et Tu, Shamika, and Et Tu, Ray Rays out there? Thanks God for all of the Judases, and the Bruteses that one encounters in life, for they will keep one solidly on their knees! Always remember that Jesus is a friend that will stick closer than a brother, so he is definitely one that we all should ardently pursue a lifetime relationship with! What think ye?
