United Voices for a Common Cause: Same Message, New Look

From 1865 up to present day, the struggle for civil rights has been at the forefront of African-Americans' plight for equality and living out God-given liberties. "No justice! No peace!" has been the rallying cry of the on-going campaign for justice. Many notable organizations have fell dutifully in-step, bravely trailblazing through precarious territory to ensure Africans Americans are no longer the "invisible man" and have full access to their civil liberties. These organizations, some of which are the NAACP, SCLC, CORE, NAN, PUSH, The Black Panther Party, and Nation of Islam, are to be

There's a sister in the White House!

braiding her daughters hair sitting on the kitchen floor betwixt her long brown legs

cooking chicken flipped and turned in a bowl of white flour

frying hot water cornbread with water from the White House kitchen tap

that satisfying scent she got from her black mamma in the hood

and smellin' the White House up with sweet potatoes, peach cobbler, black eyed peas, and collard greens on the stove

insisting her children make up their own beds

Whose youth are hopeful and now don't have so

The Terror of Urban America

Reprinted from She Speaks Psalms       ISBN 1-60813-056-8

 

Ripping in the Village Street

Chasing gray haired women

Running in flocks after someone to beat

Young urban girls and young urban boys

Killing, maimed, and broken

Playing with guns like they are toys

 

Taken into Egypt again long ago

Brought into this North Country by ship

Chained, shackled, whipped, mamas couldn't see them grow

Stolen from the Ivory Coast

Sold for bondmen and bondwomen

Welcomed by an unsavory host

 

Urban youth hidden in prison houses

Standing at the heads of the street

On this corner and that

Filled with iniquity

Loved waxed colder

My GrandSon and I

 

What most internet marketers or business entrepreneurs know very well is the fact that leads or prospects are the life blood of business growth. At the end of the day it comes down to just a few things.

1) How many people have you put your business in front of on a regular basis?

2) How many requested more information about your business or service by giving you a method to contact them.

3) How many prospects converted to clients, business partners or customers?

4) Being an effective duplicator

Item #2 and Item #3 cannot occur until we effectively accomplish item #1. This is your primary

Why I've Never Voted Before

REEP


 My name is Ryan E. Poole. I was born in 1971 in Ann Arbor Michigan (GO BLUE :) and I am a 37 year old African American male now living in Huntsville, AL. I lived in Michigan with my mother until I was 10 years old. As part of the first wave of Generation X’ers growing up in the north, I rarely experienced what I call racism. From 1st to 4th grade, I had to ride the bus 20 or 30 miles across town by myself in order to attend a fairly integrated private Christian school. Because I attended a church sponsored school, politics was rarely the subject of a lesson. I honestly cannot even

Sarah Palin Aside

Posted by customer77 in Post racist societyJohn McCainBlack In AmericaAmerica

Sarah Palin aside, what seems to be happening in politics is that the corporate own press is making public opinion focus on non-issues like sex appeal and gossip instead of foreign policy and domestic economics. As long as the public is fighting over non-issues then big oil is off the hook and George Bush gets away with murder. Notice how timely the price of gasoline has fallen and the big response to hurricane warnings. The Republicans are dead in the waters in the up coming elections Sarah Palin will not save them and they know it, but when
