Today is a sad day. Although I have said this many times and we have discussed the Trayvon case numerous times. I must continue to vent and talk about something that means so much to us. This is off the top of the dome, so I am not tying to be politically correct at all. Today I have found out that George Zimmerman will not face any civil rights charges against him. I totally disagree and I am truly upset by the ruling. However, I have no power in the matter; but what I do have is a voice and an opinion. My mindset is that  it is utterly unfair and crashing that Zimmerman was not charged. How can someone not be charged I do not know. I kinda figured Zimmerman would not face any punishment, however I held out hope. This to me was just another slap in the face and blow to the body for me. However, although out of this case I have lost more than I have gained. I have without a doubt gained something that I will carry all of the days of my life: That is a life's purpose. I have been lit and torched by the decisions that have came in the past months and years. We must continue to fight and push for change. Even though at this point in your life, you may feel like you can't do nothing about it. Don't worry a lot of people feel this way. However, you can do something about it. You can stay in school and get an educated. By doing this you can change statistics and images labeled upon us. You can make something out of yourself and in turn makes change by your own hands. Second, you can continue to go to protests and other organized assemblies; people can not ignore us forever. Remember strength in numbers and united we stand (at all times). Last, you can become a individual who cares. Someone who votes and becomes a leader of men. A leader among fellows and a pastor or guidance for the people. Push the limits and labels, and go for gold in everyday part of our life.  Prove that we have value and know that fact in your heart and soul. Don't let anyone take away your soul or MANHOOD. Do what ever it takes, BY ANY MEANS NECCESARY.

Today I am hurt, angry, and sad. But out of this we must become stronger and more powerful. We must continue to grow and learn how to use our growth so that we can continue. Let's learn to be all that we can be and never let anyone or anything defeat us. The struggle continues and so does the fight.

RIP Muhammad Ali (The Greatest)

As you have heard the sad news by now, the great Muhammad Ali has passed on. He was laid to rest yesterday. When I say passed on, he has moved on to another journey. To another place to inspire, love, encourage, and communicate without bounds or limits. Mr. Ali is free yet again. I don't have to say what Mr. Ali meant to me. Just from past articles, tweets, and videos, you guys already know what he meant to me. He was a inspiration, hero, mentor, and someone to look up to and listen; learning and hanging on to has every word. Even if those words were 50 years old, they still hold relevance to this very day. I am keeping this post short, because no true words can describe what he meant to me, to all of us. However, I will end this post like this. Heroes are remembered, but legends never die. Therefore, he was the greatest legend ALL-TIME. And, he will live on as long as WE as a PEOPLE are still ALIVE!!!!! Rest Easy Champ!!!!!!!

RIP Mr. Dick Gregory

Mr. Dick Gregory was much more than a comedian. To simply say he was a comedian would almost water-down his greatness. The greatness in which he used a comedic style to educate those of various generations and philosophies. Mr. Dick Gregory was a man of intelligence, sophistication, and humor. Mr. Gregory was a truth seeker and one whom understood that a man must always investigate the conspiracy as well as facts written in the open to truly get a possible understanding of this cryptic world. Baba Gregory understood the importance of health and taking care of one's body. He understand the importance of a healthy spiritual life, and having a true connection with the one true universal GOD. And, the importance of being aware of our ancestors whom came before we all did. Furthermore, Mr. Gregory understood the importance of mental awareness, and the idea to continue to read and learn throughout the journey of life. Mr. Gregory activism and platform is beyond great, and very ...

                                                          "#TheFlagMustGo" Growing up, I have seen the Confederate flag so many times I could not count. As, a Young age I knew the Flag was wrong. Then, as I got older I was about to study the origins as well as the very people who created, represented, and coveted the flag; I truly had my answer: The Flag Must Go. Before, I give my opinion; I am going to give y'all unmistakable and unarguable facts. In 1861, politician William Porcher Miles designed the flag. As I studied the very man who created the "confederacy flag." I wanted to understand his doctrine and beliefs. I wanted to see what he wanted to create, pass-down, and strength who's cau...
