My Brothers, I sorry that I have been gone. Been trying to promote the book and do some final updates. However, when I heard about this story from Shaun King on Twitter. I had to run straight over here. I am angry and outraged, so excuse me if this posting is not my usual "Cool-Calm-and Collective self."


I just read this report on dailykos.com (you can go there for the original article). Its entitled "If Trayvon Martin Had Lived: Meet Monroe Bird.


I so sick of this crap that I don't know what to do. How many of my Brothers will have to be hashtags before, some change really happens. Not even the fear of GOD is stopping these ugly-hateful-evil-and insane killers from harming our Brothers.


Anyway, This is the story of my Brother Monroe Bird.


On February 4th (I just now hearing about it, they are trying to sweep it under the rug).


On February 4th, While chilling in his own car; in his own neighborhood. My Brother Monroe Bird was shoot-down by a trigger-happy and untrained "wannbe authority figure." The violent and vicious gun attack on my Brother; has left him paralyzed with no ability to move his legs or arms. A talented basketball star, good person, and son of Pastors;  Monroe Bird young-vibrant lifestyle has been taken away from him. Tragically, his Young manhood has been taken away from him.


I am not aware of all of the details, however the shooter was a "wannbe" security guard (like George Zimmerman. The "racist" so-called guard also had at the time of the vicious attack possession of a legal substance on his person.


In closing, Monroe Bird Case is another clear case of Racism and the attempt to try to extinct the African-American Male. My mind is hurting and my heart is sadden. We have to continue to fight, because at this rate there will be no more African-American Males left in America. I don't know about y'all but things are gonna have to change SOON.


My Heart and Prays are with the Bird Family. May they get the full justice for their son. Unfortunately, there is no satisfaction; for the price of a African-American Life (heck a life Period) is PRICELESS.


If any of my older and more established "Big Brothers", want to help the Bird Family; please donate to the Monroe Bird Family Go Fund Me Page (gofundme.com/standformonroe). Because, sadly I just found out they are denying his family their insurance for the care of their Son Monroe Bird.


This is some sick mess. I sorry but I am too trouble to say more. Just please Pray that our Brothers and ourselves stay safe. I Pray GOD Keeps US and Protects Us.


Y'all Pray for ME, because I am Without A Doubt PRAYING for YOU.


Sincerely,


The Brown Brother

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 ...

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...

Short Story of the Fatherless Black Male

I wrote this in the backseat of a car during a road trip. This post may have a couple of grammar errors and a couple of different ideas. But, this is how I truly felt. Let's get into it. I can't sugar-coat it or make it seem insignificant. Point blank, being a young black male without a father sucks. It worse than the stench of rotten eggs, and it feels worse than being hit by a truck at high speed. Being a fatherless male is like having half of your self taken away at birth. Being a father black male means going through life without a round-the-clock mentor, a disciplinary, a friend, a dad. I mean having a mom is a blessing within itself. Most fatherless males usually have a mom. However, if it took two to create, then it is best to take two to mold and build. And, let's be honest, it's some questions no dude feels comfortable or feels right asking their mom. That is just one of the reason why not having a father sucks. At the very least, it is a inconvenien...
