Until AMERICA makes right what is abhorrently wrong in it's treatment of Black Americans. I cannot get the least bit excited about a Presidential and Vice-Presidential Inauguration. We’ve passed this road before and our hopes and aspirations of a remedy have been dashed over and over again. Hell, we inaugurated a black president and still fell behind against whites in America. Now it looks as if we will soon fall behind illegal immigrants. The facts speak for themselves. We need not continue to avoid the truth. Take a look at The Contract With Black America because that is a start, just a start to initiating racial repair.

You can have both potential and experience but if you're black in America they will still shut your shit down. Black Folks seemingly need a high quality skin whitener or a melanin remover in America. Because, America indeed stacks the deck so strategically that a few of us black folks are allowed slip through the lid of the cracked barrel. However, the remaining crabs in the barrel although the same species constantly fight each other to get out but to no avail. You see we don't own the rules of the game nor are we given the directions to proceed. If any any event the rules are discovered by the human crabs, viola, America changes the rules and the barrel stays tightly shut again.

If you truly understand the history of MLK you wouldn't reference his August 28, 1963 as his greatest achievement. You see even Dr. King realized that dream he spoke of on 8/28/1963 had become a nightmare created by American policies both foreign and domestic. Dr. King’s highest moments were fighting the final fights during the last days of his life for sanitation workers in Memphis, Tennessee, and planning to converge in Washington DC with tens of thousands of the poorest of black Americans and demand that the financial check be paid for services rendered to the development of this nation by our ancestors and descendants. That is the MLK I will remember and I will not allow either the history books or the media outlets to homogenize the revolutionary voice of that man. Nor, should we allow our black communities to fall into the trap of minimizing that MLK’s final dream was black economic, environmental, and educational reparations. If we want to honor MLK on this or any other of his holiday celebrations it should center on keeping his final and greatest dream alive. Otherwise, you accept the false narrative that his dream in 1963 was the highlight of his revolutionary voice for absolute change. Knowing full well that his murder in Memphis on April 4, 1968 had nothing to do with that dream. His murder was all about MLK’s awakening to America’s awful truth.
