After I saw this thing years ago I started watching the show as soon as they fired him I stopped watching the show lmfao

Peace family, based on a good conversation with my wife, I would like to pose the following question to you: What criteria should we use to vet leaders and/or public speakers for our people or organizations? By what means do we determine if they are worthy ethically of leading or working on behalf of us?

Probably none of you here ever heard about Maurice Bishop...May be R.I.P.

MAURICE BISHOP'S MESSAGE TO AFRICANS IN THE UNITED STATES

19 October 1983 marks the day of the assassination of one the most charismatic African leaders of our time. Maurice Bishop was a prominent political figure in the Caribbean, best known for his leadership in the Grenadian Revolution and the establishment of the New Jewel Movement.

The turning point in Bishop's political career came in March 1979, when the New Jewel Movement successfully led a coup against the authoritarian government of Eric Gairy on the Caribbean island nation of Grenada. Bishop was installed as the prime minister, and his administration implemented a series of socialist reforms, including land redistribution, education expansion, and healthcare improvements. The government also developed strong ties with Cuba, which caused concern among Western powers, particularly the United States.

On 5 June 1983, Bishop spoke to a room that burst at the seams at Hunter College in New York City. The audience was predominately Africans in America, who had flocked to hear the Grenadian leader speak about how the US government was plotting to destabilize and destroy the revolution in Grenada because it feared African sovereignty and independence. You can hear the electricity in the room.

That same October, Maurice Bishop was arrested and assassinated during a coup by a faction the New Jewel Movement, led by Bernard Coard. The internal conflict led to his violent death and opened the door for violent US military occupation.

My sperm donor ran from his responsiability, & took it too the grave with him without his legacy not being tarnished one bit! The luxeries of the stereotypical white man cop!

Maybe
I shouldn’t talk about racism
With you
Maybe we’re argumentative
To each other….ya we live it,
We experienced it….
But you witness longer than I have….
All I’m sayin is that this is a setup….
This is a chess game
Black people who doesn’t see it for
Themselves…I’m tryin my best to explain

That racism is power…and black people
Can’t be racist at all…white supremacy should
Be studied from the back to the front….

Cos everybody around me
From what I observed
Is utterly confused….

I may be wrong
I may be right
On this topic

I only understood
What racism is
And how it works

When I do have
A discussion with you,
Our offense
And disagreements
Become our battlefield

I was only tryin to
Get you think
Cos you got common sense
And you’re intelligent
Put your ignorance and feelings
To the side and use your
Critical Thinkin….

Racism
White supremacy
Is usually a everyday issue
Cos black people has to go through it
As a daily routine
Even when they don’t recognize it…
It’s in our faces
And most times
We’re blind and deaf not to pay
Attention to the oppression…
Also we’re mentally sick…..

Honestly I think it’s difficult
To talk about racism, cos nobody wants to
Speak about it…sometimes it’s easy
Cos today’s events happened
A lot…I could say the today’s events are repeatin patterns
Like recyclin shapes…

It’s why I keep bringin up this subject
Again and again and again In my poems
It’s my passion and it does affects me
I may not experience it a lot
But I do have an empathic soul for
Black people, for us….

I thought teachin white supremacy through metaphors
Can help
I thought I could bring the anger out of them….
I thought talkin about our conditions could be a part of our healin progress…
I thought tellin us historical truths about us could be another medicine…
I can’t save all black people across the globe, but I know
I can give them a voice, a reminder of why we’re so important in the first place….
And the fact that we’re all we have…nobody is our friend….

Maybe
We shouldn’t have a conversation
About racism with each other,
You and I gets so awkward
Little uncomfortable
We don’t have to…
I’m talkin about black people
Like they have feelings…
Like they’re humans
They’re my people…
I’m not an activist
I’m not an advocate
I’m just another voice of my black race….

Ya what I said you might get offended
However you gotta understand why
And this is also your people as well…
✊🏿💯🫶🏾
