A very humorous and revealing story is told about a group of white people who were fed up with African Americans, so they joined together and wished themselves away. They passed through a deep dark tunnel and emerged in sort of a twilight zone where there is an America without black people. At first these white people breathed a sigh of relief. 'At last', they said, 'no more crime, drugs, violence and welfare.' All of the blacks have gone! Then suddenly, reality set in. The 'NEW... (continue reading)
Yesterday, when I awoke from a nap. I thought about a few things. What if high profile, high school black recruits decided to all enroll into HBCU's? How much of a finanical impact would that have on the NCAA and the country. What if Pro black athletes decided to stop spending and started owning? What if we decied to make things happen for ourselves? People make the case that blacks have no control. But we decide our own destiny. We make history what it is. We make... (continue reading)

Recommend this profile to your Facebook friends. personal messageI'm just a messenger. And like
many others here on BP, around the country and the world, I'm just
hear to deliver something important. Just give me a few minutes of
your time to tell you what you have been wanting to hear your
entire life. All I need you to do... is to have an open
mind.
IMAGINE THIS...
Imagine if there were no
prisons.
Imagine if there was no surveillance. Imagine if there was no economic want in the world. Imagine if everybody -- not just celebrities -- took it upon themselves to be role models. Imagine if Hip Hop was solely a force for elevated thinking and
behavior
Imagine if presidents were only allowed to declare war if one of their loved ones had to be at the
front.
Imagine if there were a law that stated that for every tank, there had to be a new school and for every war helicopter there had to be a new
hospital.
Imagine if every time a rapper screamed the name of his city or borough , they had to make a
contribution
to a computer literacy
program.
Imagine if every bragging rapper had to post a financial statement showing how
deep
in debt they REALLY
are.
Imagine if all these "Black Leaders" were forced to show how much money they made in the name of their
"Brotha's" and "Sistah's" and how much money they make from
lectures and Hip Hop forums in the name of "progressive movements"
and "gender related" issues.
Imagine if rappers did not have to curse to rhyme and all references to the "N-word", brand name clothing, sneakers, liquor and rims were not allowed to be mentioned. Imagine a rap video without the males acting like fools with mouths full of gold teeth and the women no longer displayed as disposable and interchangeable objects like razor blades or
socks.
Imagine a video cam in central lock up, so we could see the way prisoners are actually treated. Imagine a law that said that in the richest country in the world, no child or senior citizen would go hungry or need a place to
live.
Imagine an investigation into where all the billions of dollars in lottery money that is supposed to
go
to education is actually
going.
Imagine a real war on illegal drugs and how many police, millionaires, politicians and other pillars of the community would be sent to prison FOR life. Imagine rappers publicly accepting responsibility for years of misogynistic lyrics, and became role models, and planned to take that role
seriously.
Imagine Hip Hop pioneers and legends actually being given the respect and jobs and money they deserve. Imagine a true Hip Hop magazine. Imagine so called "Hip Hop Radio Stations" actually playing Hip
Hop.
Imagine replacing the "N-Word" with the words Brotha' and Sistah' and meaning those words and not looking for a paycheck for using those
words.
Imagine a REAL choice for president. Imagine a political party that was really "for the people". Imagine young people loving music, because they loved the beats and lyrics and not because they were bombarded with the video and endless, countless radio plays. Imagine if the government were to tell the truth about UFO's and Aliens and how much better the millions of people who had witnessed these things would feel. Imagine if the truth about the JFK assassination were to be
revealed.
Imagine if all the books of the Bible were to be re-assembled and the censorship
removed.
Imagine if the truth about Afrikans, The Aztecs, Toltec's and Mayans were to be taught in schools. Imagine if we stopped eating processed food. Imagine a society without guns. Imagine if we could find a new source of energy. Â
Would it stop wars over
oil?
Imagine if rape were suddenly to become a capital crime. Imagine if religion never existed Â
Imagine that?
