I Woke up today feeling pretty revolutionary. Malcolm X has always been one of my inspirations, and due to the lack of leaders I feel are important in today’s world I world I just wanted to take a second and reflect. He felt that if a man stands for nothing they will fall for anything. He believed that you could educate you own self better than any teacher could ever educate you. He felt we MUST LIBERATE our MINDS by any MEANS NECESSARY. Damn, I just feel that we missed out on the generation where people fight for what they believe in. I feel that race relations in this country are worse than ever but America hides behind the whole facade of being a so called “Melting Pot.” What a joke..I have seen racism grow in my last ten years in the United States and believe Institutional Supremacy is a new form of slavery. Try telling that to this Yes We Can generation who hangs on to every word spoke by our current President Obama. The man who sold his pastor out for speaking the truth just so the powers that be wouldn’t stop supporting him. People say to me you couldn’t speak on real issues, tackle real American problems, or make a difference without playing both sides of the fence..I don’t believe that for one second. We had leaders like Dr. King, W.E.B. DuBois, and the Great Malcolm X (YES I SAID GREAT). They did what they had to do in the face of adversity and opposition we couldn’t imagine in today’s world. I hope people take a second, think of where we are at today….not as a race but as people. Like Malcolm said, ” The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.” Peace.
