What Happened...to Us?

Lately, I have notice that I often slip into deep thought... I catch myself wondering what happened to us?
What has happened to the Negro nation over the past 70-80 years? How could we have become so detached from the unity we once possessed long, long ago?

and...

Why do we chase after things that deteriorate? I mean, people kill, steal, and lie for things that can be easily stolen, broken, confiscated, and burned away. 
Our society (and our race) thrives on "stunting" on other people/each other, we/it thrive on pushing people to reach for the stars...but when they get there, they usually look down on the other ones trying to climb up...

and...

Why would we do this to one another? Why would we want to look down on anybody...why not help those who can't help themselves (and have a desire to genuinely want to help them, wanting nothing in return)?

Lastly...

Why do we put on such charades?

Maybe this video will help explain a little more....

Negros: From Slavery to Present Day

The Willie Lynch Syndrome 

It's really sad to see how far back we've turned and how we don't even know it. It saddens me to see that we kill, steal, rape, harm, hate (and do things much much worse) to one another. We do the same things our slave masters use to do to us...

I guess they taught us well...


Let's stop falling prey to all of the things we've been unknowingly/willingly indoctrinated with and all of the things that made us (and is still making us) die in ignorance.
Let's begin to put forth the effort to change from (and take some responsibility for) the mistakes we, including our ancestors, have made in the past.

It angers me that we were so bamboozled, that we were so harshly fooled. Yet, with all of the resources available today, we still are too stiff-necked to care.. It truly amazes me when I think back on how far we came and how we continue to allow ourselves to be entrapped by the vicious cycles that plague us...

What has happened to the Negro race?

  1. Hi Kevin, thanks for your comment. I partially agree with you and you really made me laugh! I agree that Hip Hop has a hand in the detriment of the Negro community but I think it surpasses just Hip Hop. I'm going to post more on this sometime in the future. But thanks for your comment!

    1. Hi Victor, I agree wity your comment the most. It's crazy the different tactics that are used against our people. Heartbreaking. However, our ppl continue to fall victim to them and we've been taught so well that we are now o.k. with degradating ourselves. It's so unfortunate and I think we (as a ppl) are focusing on the top surface of our dilemmas and not really looking deeper, to find the root cause of our sorrows. Yes, it's levels to this mess we're in but why are we in this mess (in the first place)? Ppl have to begin searching for those answers and stop solely blaming the "white man" and begin looking into who our ancestors were and what they did that led us to be in this predicament we're in today! && thanks for your comment! :)
