The Late Sister Harriet was truly a remarkable woman and what a fine lady to remember on this month for Women's History Month! I can imagine the courage she must have had to muster up going back to enemy territory some 19 times risking her own life to help others. For me that is what life is all about... helping others to liberate themselves from the bonds of mental, social, and economic slavery.

Hello to all and Mr. Gaddy,
Please understand that I am not taking anything away from Ms. Tubman for her good will, okay. However, the question that I want to ask all of you now is the same question I would ask Ms. Tubman if I could.
I want to ask the question did Ms. Harriet Tubman permanently resolve Black America's divine problems. She made 19 trips in enemy territory to bring 300 slaves from the south to the north, but did her efforts permanently resolve our problems as a present day subjugated people in White America? I don't think so and it is because Ms. Tubman was not anointed. Ms. Tubman was not black America's genuine prophet as Moses was the genuine prophet for the children of Israel. Get my drift?
It should be obvious to all of you that any Black or White leaders that rose up having goodwill for Black Americans including Ms. Harriet Tubman, Mr. Frederick Douglass, Dr. King, Elijah Muhammad, Mr. Farrakhan and Rev. Al Sharpton have not and could not permanently resolve Black America's problems, am I right. Black America's problems of being an inferior and subjugated people in White America still exist, am I right. Would you all agree with me that we must have someone having the strength of God to permanently resolve our problems as Moses had the strength of God? This someone must be equivalent of the real Moses of 4000 years ago that the Jews in the state of Israel recognize and honor today as their greatest and most significant prophet from God of all times. It would not be hard for me to accept that Moses surpasses Abraham in the eyes of the Jewish people. Am I making any sense with you all?
Now, God has inspired me to know that our only permanent solution is that we must desire to become a sovereign people on a further portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders to worship God, pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in our own way. Does this solution make sense to any of you all? Well, if it does make sense to any of you all then it is obvious that is the direction we must walk in after we identify who our genuine prophet is assuming you all are rejected me as your genuine prophet anointed by God to lead us into our Promised Land if he will. Everything that I say for us, Black Americans is going to happen. We are going to become a sovereign people on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders in my lifetime. The children of Israel were brought out of bondage and slavery in Moses life time and the same will be in my lifetime as well for Black Americans. We are approximately 2000 years behind time of modern day intelligent and civilize people. Our future generations have a burden on their shoulders greater than the burden the children of Israel had on their shoulders when they came out of Egypt. Black Americans have to close the gap of 2000 years in 75 years. Consequentially, the burden to be sovereign is great, but the rewards are twice as great.
There will be much time in our future in our sovereign country to honor, study, remember and appreciate Ms. Harriet Tubman. What we ought to be doing now is focusing on becoming a sovereign people. Am I right or am I wrong?
As a sidebar topic could we prepare now to avert the problems that White America have with the Muslim community wanting their way of life in this country since we are going to have immigrants in our sovereign country? How would we handle this problem when immigrants become a liability to our independence, way of life and how we would set up our country to work for us while harming none of our immigrants?
When my job is over, which is just to lead us out of subjugation and into sovereignty on a fertile portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders and the ones with the most integrity and intelligence among us takes over to established our government we must be on the level of modern day countries and not be in the condition of third world people. So, when I say we have 75 years to close a 2000 year gap is just how tough our burden will be, but we will be successful.
Gaddy, I got a big chuckle out of her having that money on her head. She said it was a head injury that caused her to be the person she became. lol (smile)

Poor Harry, because some peoples have no idea what your own words are saying. example,
Please look up the definiton of L-E-A-D and FORCE....or the difference in respect and disrespect as it may just go a long way in helping them to be able to recognize that each individual has the right to make their own decissions in life, because slavery by any other name is still "SLAVERY".(smile)
