"Be not deceived, wealth is strength, wealth is power, wealth is influence, wealth is Justice, wealth is liberty, wealth is real human Rights" . . . Marcus Garvey.
"We have been worshiping a false God . . . We Just create a God of our own and give this new religion to the Negroes of the world." Marcus Garvey, Up, You, Mighty Race . . .
"The Ku Klux Klan is the invisible government of the US . . . The Ku Klux Klan represents to a great extent the feelings of every real white American." Marcus Garvey, Liberty Hall, 1922.
". . . if there was such a thing called the Midas touch, which was the touch that made everything turn into gold, then we have a new creation in this society—the Burnham touch where everything he touches turns to shit. One has to put it in these brutal terms because the situation in which we are is a brutal situation." Dr. Walter Anthony Rodney, (1942-1980), The Most Honorable

Is it just I? It seems to me that, in very recent times, I am conscious, these days; more Negro males are jogging and dogs - walking on the streets of Brooklyn, NYC. For the most part, the pooper-scoopers are cleaning up after their lower-animals. I have noticed fewer dog feces recently. I still walking with my head focused on the path in front of me. I do not want to ever step in filth - and heaven forbid transport such particles to my domicile or take such offence smell around others. What's the reason for that? I think the Negro males are in hot pursuit of single white females.
I noticed Negro males in Crown Heights and Bedford Stuyvesant, are far more courteous and polite to white females than they are to black females. Negro males all too frequently utter choice words,
when referring to and/or speaking to black females, such as (Hoes), whores, bitches, dumb bitch and cock suckers. Doesn’t repeated exposure to the reckless and public vulgarity of the rascal Neggah man and woman sicken you? Shame upon you if you think you are representing your ancestry, your future generations and yourself in the light befitting our glorious past prior to being enslaved in the Americas. A crucified savior, Walter Rodney (1942-1980) was quoted as saying, “One has to put it in these brutal terms because the situation in which we are is a brutal situation." Certainly, the situation is most unnecessarily vulgar, far too much profanity, and all too loosely. English language is an alien tongue to our people. However, since at least 1415, Africans have been dabbing with European languages. Six hundred years is enough time for Africans to be proficient in the usage of European Languages. Don't you think?
What then is this? The propensity to dispense four letter words, cuss words, vulgar language seems to be the specialty of Africans formerly enslaved in the Americas. Are we really free? Poverty, restricted income, ignorance, rudeness and self-hatred seem to have replaced the physical chains in much similar fashion as tenement and projects have replaced the plantations as it was in the days of physical and perpetual bondage. One more item before I break away, in the old days, they were known as slave-catchers, bounty-hunters, there was a legal act such as the fugitive slave laws, today, they are called law enforcement officers and the laws of the land ensures the war on poverty will be nothing more than political rhetoric aimed at your support at the ballot box. Don’t let politicians continue to take you for a ride. There will always be poverty in a capitalist society. Think for a moment if ever one in the society is rich - who the hell would do the work? I say, forget the con-artists, especially those you hardly see unless, it‘s a campaign season. Why not create your own opportunities at wealth building? What then is this?
I guess I should label the females as Negroes. Those who accept such sordid patterns of behavior. It’s not cute. It’s distasteful. It is part of a culture in which exposing uncover garments is considered a fashionable or some dress code. It is really sickening, in fact, it is downright frightening, whenever I hear ten-year-olds and/ or younger people utter such vulgarisms. I feel like letting them have the back of my hand across their mouths. More over me feel like introducing some print material relative to Black life and culture in their faces. Let’s face it. Our young people are disrespectful to our people. I believe its self-hatred. Poverty is no excuse for acting a fool. It is not an excuse to go out of your way to be numbered amongst those anchored in the industrial prison complex.
Certainly, the Negroes must have arrived at such conclusions in their homes, and the neighborhood they frequent. I adamantly refuse to either believe or accept the Negroes reached such conclusions in the classrooms. Certainly, the curriculums could use a great infusion of Black History and the real history of the human experience on earth. Then our young people will have a sense of self-esteem, pride in the knowledge of self. It is a travesty that at this late date Negroes are talking about Greek philosophy. I find such a scenario most revolting. It is as putrid as preteens coloring their utterances with vulgarities and vague expressions.
It has dawned upon me that, Negro males express a sense of pride, exercising and showcasing their muscles. They are reminiscent of a peacock strutting itself for the benefit of females. The rituals of flexing their muscles and displaying rather well-defined physical attributes are all well and good but empowering it is not. Does it pay the bills? Does it put food on the table? Does it provide for the amenities of life?
Alas! For the most part, their expressions betray their ignorance. I am often left thinking, what an embarrassment. Won’t it be more beneficial to exercise the brain? I suppose if half the effort and time are placed upon education than straining the muscles more males would be reputable scholars and maintaining Careers even in the white world of corporate America, and less would found in too numerous prisons here in the USA. Education is a vehicle to wealth building. Education is a means to succeed. It is in itself empowering. It is still the proven avenue to political and economic empowerment. The early twentieth century messiah, Marcus Garvey (1887-1940), insisted to our representatives, "Be not deceived, wealth is strength, wealth is power, wealth is influence, wealth is Justice, wealth is liberty, wealth is real human Rights" . . .
