-----Black In America is an online community for African American men, women, and families, and want to shatter negative stereotypes and misconceptions. This platform stimulates positive ideas, dialogue and solutions. This site is not affiliated with CNN, but does compliment their "Black In America" special reports -------"Black In America" is more than just a phrase to describe African Americans in the United States. It's a movement that creates awareness and encourages dialogue about relevant issues. The phrase was originally coined by CNN when they produced several documentary-style "Black In America" special reports. The reports brought national attention to issues concerning Black families, men, and women. Since then, several groups and organizations have launched various initiatives to support the cause.

,When we gain knowledge of our past, it leaves an impression on our minds. This is more than just mere representation, but also has the power to inspire and direct us. When we discover ourselves, it provides a social and cultural context. Without clarification in our minds, of our origin, we cannot understand our current role in the world or the problems that are particular to us as a people. More than just a collection of names, dates and dead things, history is a living, omnipresent thing. It is part of our everyday live !

We as Black People have been lied to for EVER! WE have forgotten our GREAT PAST due to european quest for money and control. Our true heritage started not here on earth, but we are Star Children from Star Races. 2012 may mark the time when our DNA and our righteous hearts prove how great we truly are. Ever wonder why they hate US so much? What did we ever in history do to them? We do not share the same DNA of the europeans that is why they have so much contempt and jealousy towards US. We are the best there is! Our bodies contain things that they will NEVER genetically contain. So how are we less than they are? Wake up my Great People. There is a diabolical plot to keep US from remembering who we are, to shame US into thinking we are less than them. They took advantage of everything they could to gain an advantage over US! Only to then turn the tables on US so that they could make US feel inferior, (not the key word FEAR). I have been fortunate to have been taught by some Master Teachers,,,and will keep the light of truth......on !

NOW, Iam the only child my mother had...she was killed in a car accident when I was 10 and my cousin became my mom in the way we tend to do sdoptions...she was the one who had no children...any way...the lady who my father married and he had children. One of my brothrs died of drugs...no one relly know what kind of 'drug' it was that killed him. It seem he and his friends mixed up something and they left him for 3 days dead before telling the family he was dead. I have a sister who was a drug addict, today she is a minister...it is along story but my sister is physic and her being catholic had a lot to do with her being an addict since tis behavior is a SIN and she could not handle it...that is until she had a child out of wed lock, gave her life over to her child and not the church and found and acepted her own identity...now she is famous and travle all over helping drug addicts... I have nephew who went to prison for murder...a drug addict refused to move his business from next door to my sister, and his mother, so to get his mom out of dangr he killed the drug dealer and the place he was selling from closed!!!AND, YET THINGS LIKE THIS INRELATIN TO CRIMES DRUG ADDICTS WHEN IT COMES TO OUR PEOPLE YOU DON'T SEE ON TV...I WONDER WHY?!? MAYBE IT IS BECAUSE IT TAKES AWAY WE ARE NOT WHITE THEREFORE WE ARE BORN TO BE VIOLENT AND CRIMINALS AND WHAT EVER...OR IS IT BECAUSE TIS IS TOO BORING AND WILL NOT GET RATINGS THEREFORE O AD MONIES AND WE AILL NOT BE ABLE TO LEARN ABOUT OUR PEOPLES THUS MAKING US EVEN DUMBER THAN WE ARE NOW?!? (N...U...P) OR BECAUSE MY FATHER AND HIS WIFE WERE MARRIED????? OH AND YES, I HAVE MENTIONED THE MANY FIGHTS WE HAD TO HAVE BECAUSE SOME OF MY SISTERSA ND BROGHERS ARE LIGHT, HAVE NATUAL RED HAIR AND GRAY EYES AND WERE CALLED LIES WHEN THEY SIAD THEY WERE BLACK...SEE ANY OF THIS ON TV...AGAIN I WONDER WHY?????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????...

"I" always say I...and right now I am thinking about a commercial I see often on our biggest public class room the calss room so dependant on things like this ad I am about to speak of and the ratings like those recieved by the BIA history specials ratings...this ad has in it this lady saying, "they can't put anything on the net that is not true"... 1. What % of voters will be voting for BHO/ Romney from their full and complete speeches as compared to tv sound bites being their info center? 2.If asked, how many people do I know tha this black and female and has aides, I would have to say zero...how many are like me in this? 3. HOw many inreal life Black males of single mothers do we I know isin jail or prison...again it would be a zero. 4. HOw many black children who are at risk because they have bad parents? Again I would have to say zero... AND, HOW ABOUT YOU...ANYON EOUT THERE??????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????? (NUP/SMILE)

LOL...David another BIA history lesson was seen on CNN last night via the interview of Piers Morgan with John Sununu last night that has gone viral on all 3 cable news networks along with Senator John McCain now joining in on teaching why it is that general Colin Powell is still willing to back or president!!!! (nup/ smile) Oh what McCain had to add to the mix in this interview was it was Powell not Bush that got us into these wars...ONLY IN AMERICA, ONLY IN AMERICA ARE THESE KINDS OF BIA HISTORY CLASSES HELD IN SUCH MASS'...
