Why Are You Concerned About Black America:

Someone needs to stand in the gap to improve our situation in American. I believe it must first start within ourselves and families, then our churches and schools. If we don't care about ourselves, why should anyone else?

	I'm blessed to have a 95 year old, saved grandmother, whose still very active in the church and continues to instill values in us . If I could have her around the rest of my life, I know I would be yet learning valuable life lessons. I often wonder how our families became so wise and survived more that what we will ever experience. If I can ever be of assistance in any of your projects, please call on me to support your endeavors. Thanks Again for your friendship. Tagged by karen adams on 11/23/2008

	First my sister I would like to say nice meeting you and thank you for the invite. Sister I agree with you 100%. First it begins with the black households coming together like the old days. Do you remember when we was kids we did not stay up late and we most definitely could lay around in the bed all day either. We also had to help around the house and we did not get paid doing it as people get kids does today. I feel it's good to show your kids that to appreciate them, but I do not believe in paying the kid for cleaning up their own mess. And nor was We allowed to leave the house without anyone knowing where we was going but now days, you see kids young as five and six years old roaming the streets without a parent or adult present. That is unacceptable to me. In the show I have a lot to say on was going on in our community with our black family with our school systems and so on and so on. But you know when am here seem like I cannot really explain a lot of what I feel and what I think would work for us as a people. When I get some extra money I am going to buy me a laptop. I really believe I have one you would be hearing a lot more from me. On subjects such as this one. May be the first part of next year I will buy me one. The one I Am using now is fairly new. A laptop IS very convenient. Anyway thank you once again my newfound friend I think we need to go back to our roots. In our roots lies within the way our grandparents did things. In other words we need to put some respect back into the households of the black families. before we can take care of the out problems we are faced with in our society today. Tagged by Judith A.

	Hi Karen, I am very interested in knowing how to get good food chains into neighborhoods where there are no vendors. Inner city and rural areas are deprived of good food choices opposed to other populations. I would like to see better choices for communities that have no voice. What would be some ways in which I could go about getting communities involved? I could see the possibilities of this as a tool to improve our health awareness. We have a lot of health concerns facing us at this time and perhaps starting at this point we can make a difference. Tagged by O Z Gore on 08/30/2008
