Why Are You Concerned About Black America:
I am concerned with Black America because as a young Afro-Caribbean woman i want to see us perserve our place in this ever changing global economy but on a much grander scale want to see us free from the mental shackles we failed to take off with our physical chains. Iam concerned about my people, because like Angie D. and Huey P i feel obligated to fight until the "REAL" war is won.
Side Note**
I would like to applaude who ever decided to create this website as i had started formulated the idea on paper soon after watching the first airing of the CNN special " Black in America". I hope you CAPITALIZE on the vast audience of black americans' attention you have and not only stop at the rhetoric, but IMPLEMENT TRUE STRATEGIES AND TEACHINGS FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY TO REGAIN THEIR LOST UNITY WHICH IS THE TRUE, ULTIMATE AFFLICTION WE FACE BEING BLACK IN AMERICA.
*****i am a student @ Morgan state and I would love to write some articles for your website, please contact me@
