february 28th ( very long and involved)

this is regards to the comment jesse jackson made about barack obama (july 8-10 2008)

jesse has a alotta fukin balls even thinking that. i don't care that he whispered it to another african american during a commercial break.......... when a black man (or woman)with some power and a voice that people hear and listen expresses that black people need to take personal responsibility for their lives and the lives of the people that are very close to them, people jump up and diss them and calll them 'sellouts', 'uncle toms' 'aunt jemimas', etc. the same thing happened to bill cosby (and maybe dr. poussaint) and jason whitlock. if jesse and other blacks wanna focus on the bigger problems affecting society as a whole and black people in particualr, we been fukin doin that!!!! how many gat**** years do we have to rehash the same thing over and over!?

how many times do u have to have chest pain and people are telling u that you need to calm down and take nitroglycerin tabs? if u have chest pain 4 days a week and people are tellin you that, u are only fixin a minority of the problem........... u need to take personal responsibilty and change your diet and take your *** to the doctor!!!!!!!!!!! black people can keep talkin about racism, poverty, under-education, violence, etc. but until we talk and seriously, forreal IMPLEMENT personal responsibilty into our lives, we're gonna be in an eternal circle jerk.

slaves and former slaves talked about the same thing, but they had a duty of personal responsiblity to themselves, to their families, their communities and to their descendants........with no affirmative action, no protests and marches, no big, medium or small outlets to voice things. they just fukin did it.

talkin down to black people:rolleyes:.....outta ur gatdaam mind. the rate of single mothers in black neighbors is sky-high. and barack gonna tell a church full of black people that fathers need to be there for their families to head off a world of potential problems and jesse gon say he's talkin down to black people!?!?

edit: where's my man roland martin at??

 
You seem to be a smart person adio, I think I like you.
Why is it that we can't get some common sense people into politics?
well, i do all right delv..... i like u too:cool:

there's alotta politicians with common sense, but politicians must please everybody......at least the majority of people. if politicians say statements beginning with 'well, persoanlly i think.....' they're *** is outta there. i would never be a big politician, not enough dough in the world

 
our brothers, our influences, our shining pieces of soul....... RIP

I am in for this one.

 
I am glad that there are black people out there who see the longview and understand the scope of things like Jesse's comments about Obama. Too often--and not just with black people but ALL people--we have blinders on and just "cheer for our team". We choose to ignore flaws and instead prefer to pass blame flaccidly around without any real direction or insight.

I love to see anyone stepping outside of their group to take in a more objective viewpoint, especially in a community as charged and muddled as the black community. I think slowly but surely its starting to even out though. As hypocrisy becomes evident on all sides, people are rubbing their eyes and seeing through the BS.

Good man adio. People are better than petty social and racial boundaries.
