I have yet to see ONE educator from the countless African-American study department(in America) or any cultural African-American coverage even closely related to the Black family ties, traditions,etc with the Mother land in the 'family' segment of Black in America. Or any reflection of the Black family not planned to gain rating getting arguments/dialog????


What I saw was the usual special to re in force the negative role of the Black mother. She is always seen as a single mother,etc And, that it works, is what bothers me so much. The proud African culture that is and will be educated out of us by this use of FREE Speech (like this as the social norm)is causing more and more of this planet to cancel out a whole culture. That of the proud Africans who first came to America caming from a hunter-gather city state that was centered around the Mother as the person the family depended on and not the father!!!

And, thiskind of cultural social order is a very,very important part of our natural instinct to survive!!! The father role was to hunt. Hunting was a 'maybe' way for theAfrican family/village not to starve. The mother's role was to dig roots and tend/gather the fruits of the LAND which was an 'absolute' against the family/village starving! The female was respected for this and seen as a family EQUAL!

This my Black brothers and sisters never resist, be allowed to deny this as your heritage, your proud heritage and always respect your mother, be she your birth mother or your guardian as a part of our survival that must not be replaced by mainstream media 'teaching this out of you as a race of people. Please think about this when you hear that Blacks do not get "educated" as story telling is still our way to survival or we can continue to wait for a Black in America special to tell you who and what you are and not your culture's need to survive dispite these kinds of P-U-B-L-I-C- education limited to only the price of a monthly cable bill!!! Wake UP my proud people so not give up how you come from a proud peoples from the Mother country-Africa.
