December- First of the Month

Hey, how y'all been doing?


I pray that each of y'all are having a great week. Anyway, just like the beginning of every month, I will be discussing this month's overview.


On the list for today is


-The Brown Brother "Book of the Month"
- Word of the Month"
- Also, I want to share some personal thoughts that I have with you.
-Last, I want to give a update about where I am right now in life.




Let's get started!!!


This month's Brown Brother B.O.T.M is "Black Faces in White Places" by: Randal Pinkett and Jeffrey Robinson





I picked this book up at the library last week. I have yet to begin to read it, but I hope it is a good book. The book basically states that it highlight "10 Game-Changing Strategies to Achieve Success and Find Greatness."


We all can use success and greatness right now, so I think it may be a decent pickup.


.......................................................................................................................................................


Second, let's get into the Word of The Month!!!


Today's word is


di·gress
[dīˈɡres]

VERB

  1. leave the main subject temporarily in speech or writing:
    "I have digressed a little from my original plan"
    synonyms: deviate · go off on a tangent · get off the subject ·
    get sidetracked · lose the thread · turn aside/away · depart · drift · stray · wander
Allow me to use this in a sentence.

" Before I continue to move into the closing statements of this lesson,  I want to digress and talk about what I personally think about the current state of the Black Man." 

..............................................................................................................................................................
(Motivation)

Today, I want to do something different. I want to talk about what we can do to make ourselves better. The current state of the Black Man is personally not where I want it to be. Therefore, we as Brothers must continue to raise to the occasion and be the leaders that GOD called Us to be (Father, Husband, Brother, Friend, Son).

Everyday, we must get up with the mindset that we will make ourselves as well as those around Us a little better.

We must continue to strive for excellence and continue to not settle for anything less than what our full potential can achieve.

- The Brown Brother

...........................................................................................................................................................

Last, I want to talk about what has been personally happening in my life. I got some ideas to bounce around and some decisions to make.

If you follow me on Twitter, you will see that I tweeted that almost all my pictures on here were deleted. If you go to any of my old posts, you will see a gray picture of a camera with a cross out sign on it. Now, I am no computer genius, however I know that means google/blogger has deleted my pictures. The pictures are not even visible to me.

This can only be the work of "others." I guess this unhanded work can only be attributed to the fact that this blog page this been growing non-stop. We ( I say we because we all are a part of this) now have people viewing this page from as far as Canada, Africa, and UK. We are growing all over. Anyway, they are trying to discourage and harden the impact of this page.

Visual aids are one of the few reasons I believe that is blog is doing so well. I personally, believe that we are better learners when we can see something.  A picture is worth a thousand words.

Well, I making this post to long, so I will make the update a post within itself.

Closing, I hope that everyone has a blessed and safe Christmas and #NotOneDime.

Sincerely,

The Brown Brother

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...
