Fighting for HUMANITY

We are NOT animals.  This isn't survival of the fittest.  We evolved with a higher consciousness to experience a greater form of life.  We are here to LOVE one another.

Yes, some of us make over $15 per hour due to securing certain jobs, however, that doesn't mean that others should be given scraps to feed themselves and their family.  Where's the HUMANITY in that?

Some claim that if they can rise by getting an education and securing a salary above poverty anybody can.  Everybody doesn't have the same circumstances, resources, and network to achieve that.  Plus, there aren't enough "high paying" jobs for those who have degrees.  Not all can fill the vacant engineering and medical jobs.

Regardless of what position one can individually attain, it still doesn't excuse exploitation and not setting a minimum wage that can reward those who want to work with wages they can have a decent life with.

Let your higher self guide you to make the decision to support what's right. 
CLAIM IT & POWER UP!

Why Misled Youth Don't Fear Prison

You can't rely on the threat of prison as a means of handling the majority of crime generated by our misled youth because prison doesn't currently appear as a consequence to them (I should know, I once thought like them).

A lot of our youth come from dysfunctional homes.  When you're traumatized and feel you have NOTHING to lose, because you have nothing, prison appears to solve a lot of problems to those lost, including food, clothing, shelter, health care, etc.

So stop with the law enforcement and judicial system talk.  Focus on addressing traumas, families, and quality of life.

Why The World Lives in Fear

Too many people are living in fear:

- The wealthy live in fear of losing power from what they have amassed.

- The middle class live in fear of not being recognized by the wealthy and being seen as snobs by the poor.

- The poor live in fear of living a life not worth living, being targeted by the wealthy and looked down on by the middle class.

- Those who shun the material world and focus on spirituality live in fear of fear...

POWER UP!

Why I Am An Activist

THEM: Mike, are you an activist?
ME: Indeed I am.

THEM: A Black Activist?
ME: An activist that is black?  Yes. 
If you are asking if I am active on behalf of things that only affect black people, no.

THEM: What type of activist are you?
ME: One who seeks justice, freedom, and equality under the law for ALL people!  ALL people must be uplifted especially Blacks in America because they have the most unequal statistics.

THEM: What needs to be addressed?
ME: Here are a few things off the top:

- Government (especially state and local) corruption and mismanagement on ALL levels
- Continued use of key public offices being used by white supremacists for their agendas
- Continued neglect and abuse of poor people
- Continued mis-and-undereducation of ALL Americans especially Blacks

This is why I end my informative posts with the term "POWER UP!" because the masses are a mighty engine of justice that have been purposely turned off, who now need to be turned on... POWER UP!

IS IT SOCIALISM OR NEO-SERFDOM?

THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Serfdom = A member of the lowest feudal class, legally bound to a landed estate and required to perform labor for the lord of that estate in exchange for a personal allotment of land.

The premise of this system (legal system in medieval Europe and imperial Asia) is to make people dependant on the governing body for necessities (including protection) in exchange for cheap labor and services.

Is it just me or did the Democratic Party (known as Socialists around the world) trick poor people and minorities into modern day serfdom?!  They went from being "the slave master's party" to "the people's party" in an odd turn of events from 1933 - 1965 (32 years) which includes "social programs" that make individuals dependant on the government for their necessities.

The Qu'ran and Bible speak about Iblis (devil) telling The Most High that he would make "evil fairseeming and turn man upside down, in and out". 

Brothers and sisters, have we been duped by a political strategy of making an "evil" seem fair (servitude and slavery is now cloaked as government assistance)?  AFTER some historical FACT checking, tell me what you think about this concept.

The State of Black America

During the Jim Crow era Black men hung from trees by the dozen and Black women had to clean up the houses of the very people who hated us just to support the families the Black men left behind.

In today's society, Black men are not only being exterminated by the hand of corrupt policy enforcers but each other's hand too, and the Black woman is still working to support our families.

WE'RE LOSING, BLACK FAMILY, and WE'RE LOSING BAD!  100 years and the pattern remains.

We think that because we get to go further up the corporate/public service ladder and live in any "better" neighborhoods that we're doing better than our ancestors who lived in the early 20th century... WE'RE NOT!

Why?  They predominantly had something we don't...UNITY.   Regardless of class, religion, education, or any other divisionary measure, they knew they were in the same boat: BEING BLACK.

We gave up so much to be accepted by others and have "more" but it's an illusion.
PLEASE WAKE UP FAMILY... POWER UP!
