BLACK WOMEN HAVING CHILDREN OUT SIDE OF MARRAIGE & BLACK MEN NOT TAKING CARE OF THEIR CHILD (REN) HAS BEEN SO

Sister Irma,
You are something else with all these thought provoking blogs that challenge us to look at our own thinking when it comes to people in our community that perhaps don't fit the normal stereoptypes we ourselves have bought into unconsciously. Reminds me of Black folk coming out saying President Obama wasn't Black enough or that he wasn't a "true" African American i the real sense of the word. Go figure!!

...ever heard of black men being in the military and getting sent off to war...having jobs as missionarys wo are away from home years at a time...veavning family here and what do you do when a black female tells you things like this...DO YOU JUST...CALL THEM A LIE AND THEN GO TELL YOUR CHURCHMEMBERS, AT YOUR JOBS...YOUR LITTLE GROUP THAT SHE IS AN UNFIT MOTHER FOR LYING LIKE THAT OR MAYBE EVEN BEING A CRIMINAL / A PROSTUTE BECAUSE SHE ALWAYS HAVE MONEY AND YET DON'T HAVE A JOB OR USE FOOD STAMPS AND HER CHILDREN HAVE NICE THINGS ALL THE TIME...

SURE YOU DO BECAUSE THINGS LIKE THIS OFTEN MAKES YOUA HERO TO YOUR OLD FRIENDSA BOUT THIS ATRANGER IN YOUR TOWN, CITY, HOOD!!!!!!!! (NUP)

...AND OH YES PEOPLE IN TEHEMILITARY DO QUALIFY , GET AND USE FOOD STAMPS. (NUP)

i WONDER WHY????

lets see the first case by anyone who are so concerned about Black females not having children and not being 'marrried' go make it illegal for Black women to not be granted a divorce until are they have the child they are carring in their blides...

and make i tillegal for my mom who raised me as her child after my birth mother died when I was 10 years old...she was UNMARRIED AT THE TIME SHE TOOK ME IN AND SHE WAS MY COUSIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE HELP OUR BLACK COMMUNITY NOT BE SO WILLING TO SELF DISTRUCT ON ORDERS....PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE AND BEING FAMILY AS IN 'EXTENDED FALILY' IS ALSO SOMETING WE BROUGHT WITH US AS A SURVIVAL TOOL TO THESE AMERICAN SHORES FROM TH EMOTHER LAND A-F-R-I-C-A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (NUP)

@JEN, thanks so very, very, very much...we are taught to well that every thing does not come from within our own selves...but as my religious practice teaches...my religion also teacings taht what we do that does not come out well for us...we must not blame GOD for this either. (smile)

WE CAN NOT RECOGNIZE ANY THING IN OTHERS THAT WE HAVE NOT SEEN FIRST WITHIN OUR OWN SELVES. (SMILE)
