Blaming “Tha Man” people for all of our problems and start looking in tha mirror for our solutions. Yes there is institutional racism, inequality, injustice, eugenic genocide and a war that has been in place against African Americans since slavery began (and maybe even before that). But if we focus on blaming others, it diverts attention, energy and brain power away from tha solutions. And that would then be another injustice that we sat by and allowed to happen.Yes there is a systematic effort, plot and plan in this country to degrade, divide, vilify, oppress and destroy tha African American man, woman and family and I have no illusions about that. Tha evidence is economic, judicial, political, sociological, psychological and spiritual, just so know that my eyes are wide open. BUT, you still have to pay your bills. You still have to survive. You still have to succeed. And you can if you neither wait for someone else to do it for you nor continue to make excuses about who or what is holding you back. When we make excuses and scapegoat our personal accountability for our well being to tha “Tha Man“, we abdicate tha responsibility, ability, power and potential that is in our hands.
Let’s talk about tha trap of “entitlement programs“, a funny term. Since when are some entitled to free food, free infant formula, free housing, free phones and free money while the rest of us are not entitled to it? Many people say the government is supposed to be of, by and for tha people. But since when has that been the case in this country? So while many of our people are enjoying tha handout, they are not expecting tha trap. Any person, government or corporation that controls your housing, your phone, our food supply, when you buy it, how much you buy, what you can and can’t buy, your income, your healthcare and what you give your children controls your lyfe. Wake up! That is exactly why I am NOT a democrat, trap door entitlement programs that create a deliberate dependency on government while giving them more and more control over your lyfe. No thank you! And I don’t accept tha programming of sticking with tha party of tha deep south former slave masters.

Did you really expect justice? Were you waiting on fairness and equality? Were your hopes that President Obama would turn into a king or a magician and make all of your problems go away? Are your eyes open? Because if your eyes are really open, you know your lyfe, your survival and your success is up to you – not up to your employer, tha government or your church. Don’t fall for tha trick of others doing things for you that you should be doing for yourself. That type of dependency comes with a loss and a price of authority and control over your lyfe. We wait for doctors to tell us to get healthy. We wait for lawyers to tell us our rights. We waited for tha city of Louisiana to evacuate our people. We wait for our employer to tell us we need to find another job, even though we know tha one we have does not pay enough or we have to go through Hell to get tha little we do get. I should not say “we” because I have learned not to do these things, even though I once made all of those mistakes...We act shocked when cops mistreats us but when tha STREETZ shoots one of our own, we simply have a vigil with some candles, a funeral and shake our heads. Our people, as a whole, expect tha “man” to take care of us as if we cannot take care of ourselves – and that is exactly what has been happening for too many of our people.
You have too much greatness inside you for you to let any government or employer determine your status and stature in lyfe. But you don’t know it yet so you keep working on tha corporate plantation, settling for whatever massah gives you or allows you to have. This is a slave mindset and it is covertly taught in our schools, practiced in our homes and even in our churches. Yes in our African American churches where a dependency is created that you must go to God through them, that you can only hear God through them and that you can only do your good works by giving what they say....Stop waiting on a leader because your leader is in the mirror. The one human being who determines how high you rise in life is not your manager, your pastor nor your president. It is YOU and if you know this already, the evidence will be reflected in your life. What kind of independence would you have if the government did not help you and your employer did not keep you? What would your bank account, home and necessities look like? Be honest and that honesty will reveal if you are dependent on massah or not....There is an election on tha horizon and anything can happen. War looms with Russia, ISIS, Iran, North Korea and every other country America can start something with. One disaster and tha banks, tha housing market, tha healthcare industry and jobs could take a nasty fall. Tha future is not as set as you think and you determine greatly where yours will go. So I ask you, where are you headed? Straight up like a rocket, straight down like a rock, straight into a brick wall or nowhere at all?.....No person in this country has tha power to stop you as long as you keep your freedom, your wits about you, your goals in place and you don’t make excuses. So I hope you have a plan. Because if you don’t, then those who seek to oppress you or even trap you with dependency on them have a definite plan for you. And you will not like it, not at all.
