Black women must forgive black men for not being there to protect
them. -----------Suliman Latif Etched into the memory of our being
are the very painful memories of the past.What they feel like today
are: "Black men are irresponsible."Are we really talking about
black men today? Or are we remembering those of the past who were
powerless to save our grandmothers from the events that have
created the painful memories? Whether the memories are from
yesteryear,last week or night black women must individually and
collectively forgive black men We must forgive our grandfather and
brothers, our husbands and sons.If we have anger for black men,we
have anger toward them all.Wemust forgive black men for the things
they do not do.Forgiveness is the only way to free ourselves and
our mascline complements from the atrocities committed against our
mutual souls. There is a place of forgiveness within me.Today I
lovingly share it with black men. , You will never know who you are
in the world until you know thyself.
--------------------------Dr.J ohn Henry Clarke We are descenants of
The parent race,Africans,transported to a new land. We are
African-caribbeans,African-Lat inos and Africans,natively.Over
thecourse of the last twenty years we have become eager to embrace
our ancestral roots.That is good. it is good however, that we
continue to define our"Africanness"in concepts forreign to us.We
claim the music,dance, art and clothing.Yet we become uncomfortable
about discussing the so-callled dark side of the
motherland--rituals,scarificat ion,wearing leaves and animal
skins,root medicine,bones in the nose,animal sacrifice,plates in
the lips and tridalism.We shy away from what we have come to
understand isstill unacceptable by other standards.we must study
ourselves, for ourselves.Until that time,it will remain difficult
confusing,and uncomfortable to acceptor reject the place we
call"mother." ----------From my darkness comes the light You can
look ahead, you can look behind, what is written cannot be changed
-The Oracles of Ifa- We cannot change the color of our skin. What
we can change is how we feel about it.We cannot change a
pain-filled past.What we cannot change how others may feel about
who we are and where we,ve been.What we can change is how we see
it, how we use it and how others use it to our benefit or
detriment. The past has already been written,but we have the power
to write the future, based on who we are and what we do now.Only we
can write a future based on how much we have wealth and love.Alle
we have to do is what is right now. I Am choosing my future by what
i do now
