What the hell happened to the Civil Rights Groups?

Family, this is why I become so pissed off when I see our Black males killing each other!!! It needs to be realized that there is still racism out there. You know whenever I read stories such as the pool incident and Dr. Gates arrest I always wonder what did Blacks ever do to these people? I love my people, however the problem with the folk from my generation is that they waste too much time concentrating on eliminating each other. We are made to be jealous of each other, made to feel we are people with no life, no future, no accomplishments, etc. Black people need UNIFICATION and should put a stop to this madness. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton can't do it alone. Of course there is a difference in selecting a leader, and there is a difference in life and death. People need to stop moaning about what Dr. King and Malcolm X would have done. They ain't here, and they ain't coming back. Why not hold the racists who seek leadership positions accountable? Also, the impeachment act should be enforced on these civil rights violating police because it's not just enough to go around saying "F" the police. The best way to stop racism is by hitting the masterminds behind it in their pocket. That'll end that noise!

Now you are on point, Siebra!!! Why is it so hard for us to fight back? Are we too preoccupied? What can we do to make sure not another cop misuses his authority. The answers start here...with an open forum. This is not about Black Vs. White. This is Right Vs. Wrong. its 2009 and we still have to put up with this injustice based on color. enough is enough! I emailed Jesse Jackson's son when I first heard about the pool case because I couldn't find a way to email Jesse Jackson or the NAACP. I am going to find out all the information and post it here...contacts for congressmen...governors...civil liberties groups...black lawyers...and post them to my website http://www.careerwriters.net. I will let you know when its up.

They don’t understand that, just because its not you that doesn’t mean that it’s not about “you.” That is exactly what I am talking about, Mr. Maxwell! Sedentary, who cares? It aint my kid- type thinking will destroy justice in our community. If we don't stand up for each other no one else will. I am a high school teacher and when I see teen boys running the hall with their pants sagging and boxers showing, do I say" boy, come here?" NO..Do I think to myself..."dumb n*ggas" No I think and I say, "Young man, Sir..will you please pull up your pants?...It all starts with how we treat each other...That''s another point; if we don't respect each other, who will?

It is different time and because of so much violence in the world, people are frightened to be heros and heroines. Organizations have many members and the Civil Rights Movements are still vital. They seem to be involved in other issues, some having to do with changing laws...where once they took it to the street. I was highlighted with a recent organization started by Dr. King called the Southern Christian Leadership which are taking a trip to march in a town of Kenneth, MO as early as tomorrow or Thurs August 6, 2009. This march is against actions of a local branch of KKK there that's terrorizing it's black citizens. So, it may be that actions of our Civil Right Groups are not being documented by the press. However, they are in the works and groups of them are thriving. Heros are few, and workers even fewer. This is a very good blog and brings focus back to pulling together as a people of strength.

That's the spirit Sun. I gave up with the NAACP a long time ago when I found out the last thing they are going to do is 'rock their local White community's boat'. If you really want help from the NAACP your best bet is to join (Or just start your own branch of the NAACP)the National branch and they will answer your call on your local level.

But, the best way to get any and all things done is starting with Y-O-U. This works everytime(smile) And, something a l ot of people do not know, it takes only two people to get a class action law suit started with you state's attorney general. Or if you live near a law school those law students are always ready and willing to help. Or your community college as it is there for the community and you are your community...go get them.LOL

...And, even more important is that we begin to REEDUCATE our selves in many, many things, places and peoples that the White race has educated US so that we do not know our own history and UNIQUE culture-family structure and even in our worship of God. examples,

1. Dr. King and Malcom X were not enemies!!!!!!!

2. The Black Panthers were made public enemy #1 in their efforts to stop police abuses of our Black males and racial profiling and miseducating our children in public schools!!!!!

"I" REPEAT IT ALL STARTS WITH THAT ONE VITAL STEP TOWARDS LOOKING AT OUR OWN INDIVIDUAL SELVES(smile).

* if it has not changed, all you need to get a local community NAACP charter is getting 25 paid members. In each part of the country there is an NAACP top leader who you can get this information from the NAACP located in Baltimore Md.One of the hardest thing to go up against is freedom of speech..when you run into this then bring up the question if they have investigated this matter as hate speech-hate crime, racially demeaning, just out and out false information but never , every give up you own efforts in your quest.

Make the local police, D.A. allow you to look at their records to find out if this (what ever it is)has been done before / done to any other race?

Please, do not worry as you will learn with on the j ob training(smile)
