As always I write about things that I think need to be addressed. Anyway, as I was surfing the internet; more importantly gofundme.com I found out about a Young Brother that life has been turned up-side-down. Through I whole-heartedly believe that we serve an all-powerful GOD that would not let just anything happen to us (without reason). I however, also feel it is our duty as Brothers to help each other when ever we can.


Now, here is the story of Steffon L. Josey-Davis as told by himself (source: gofundme.com profile page).


Hello, My name is Steffon Josey-Davis I'm a 24 year old from New Jersey who became a convicted felon for a legally owned firearm. As an armored Guard for Loomis, As a Armed service company who transported U.S & foreign currency to banks and service ATM's. I was also on the road to a successful career with my township police department. 

One Morning on September 20th 2013. I was preparing myself for work, grabbing my firearm out of my safe, bulletproof vest, Making my way to the garage. While in the process of disarming my firearm. My little sister came into the garage. To aviod any accidents, I put the firearm in the glove compartment moments after putting my bulletproof vest on the passanger seat. After securing my firearm, I took my sister upstairs to put her back in bed. Losing track of time, I noticed I was running late, grabbed my keys and continued to leave my house that morning for work. Not realizing my firearm was still in the glove compartment.


When I left out of the house that morning I was later pulled over in my vehicle. During my traffic stop, I notified the officers who I was, Who I worked for and I had my Legally owned firearm in my glove compartment.

 The officers took my fire arm and let me go, When I went to claim my fire arm from the police department they arrested me and charged me with unlawful possession of a firearm I legally owned.

I was facing 10 years in prison for a simple technicality. I am now a convicted felon.

I took a plea deal of probation due to the fact I was scared of going to prison for up to 10 years with serving
5 years before being released from state prison.

I was in the process of becoming a police officer to protect my community and make my family proud. My Dreams are now thrown away because of a mistake.

This nightmare has ruined my life, all my hard work down the drain. I lost everything, my job, my career, the money I had for a new future. I was planning to get married, Buying a house. Everything I dreamed of having now gone. Please help me fight to get it back. I deserve a chance to reach my dreams. This injustice cost me my life, my freedom, and my future.

This fund is to help overturn my wrongful conviction. I am now a Felon and with your help I can become a free man once again. This fund was made to give me the opportunity to hire Evan Nappen.The best Fire arms attorny in New Jersey. During the time of my arrest there was a NEW JERSEY Amnesty period.


That means anyone subjected to unlawful possession of a weapon charge should'nt have been prosecuted. I was wrongfully convicted and with your help a donation can change my life and bring justice to my case.


Wow when I heard this case, I had to tell it. For more information and to donate visit: gofundme.com/pardonsteffonjosey

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 ...

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.

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...
