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.

FASFA

I try to explore different topics and ideas to discuss/share on the blog. While going through some papers and looking through some stuff, I remember that I forget to write about this topic. Therefore, today we are going to talk about FASFA. First, you may ask, "What is FASFA." FASFA is federal aid or money for going to college. Although they said "federal aid", it is basically tax that is set aside for students who want to go to college, but need money to help pay for college. FASFA is available to students who have need and are looking to attend college (certificate program, associate degree, or 4 year degree). You need to fill out FASFA every year. FASFA should be filled out by any and every student. It is something that will without a doubt helpful in paying for school. A simple summary is basically this: (1) Wait until you or parents file Income Tax (2) Go to this website- https://fafsa.ed.gov/ (3) Create a account (4) Fill out all of the informat...

Hi, my Brothers; I have not posted anything in a couple of days. I was going to write about something different today. However, I saw this video and I had to share it. The anger and outrage I have can not be calculated because this video is too outrageous to believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJhIN0gUN30 The video link above will direct you to Youtube. Where it shows a video of four Young Brothers being harassed and thrown out of Walmart. It further shows one of the Young Brothers being arrested. They were not harassed and then arrested for Robbery or Theft; but for "JUST HANGING OUT AND SHOPPING TOO SLOW." Yes you heard me, for going to slow in the store. Now this I can't believe. Maybe something else will come out and show otherwise. However, if this was the Young Brothers only "behavior"; then this arrest and event is truly hard to believe. For anyone who has ever grown up in any city in the world, you know summer are boring. Now, ...
