“Nationalists are apt to describe themselves as a nation within a nation and to hold that the loyalty and identification of black people, for example, should lie with that community and only secondarily with the United States.”

African Americans must start thinking politically!! Similar to Obama, none of the politicians who are being mentioned as potential candidates in the 2016 presidential election have addressed nor are they discussing the historical and contemporary issues disparately affecting the African American community. These are things that all of them should have been talking about A LONG TIME AGO so you know when they start addressing the African American community as the year progresses, they are not genuinely concerned about us and they are just trying to get elected into office. As far as I’m concerned, NONE of them deserve our votes!!

It’s time for transformative change! Our nation’s two party political system is nothing more than a bunch of smoke and mirrors, creating the illusion of difference when both parties are dominated by whites who do not respect us or view us equals. We have to start thinking outside of the parameters established by our oppressors and find new and creative ways disrupt the status quo from here on out. Forming our own political party and becoming more politically minded are two ways that we can achieve that goal. Power to the people!!

“A wise man told me the first step towards change is AWARENESS. The second step is ACCEPTANCE. Are YOU AWARE of the CHANGES that are HAPPENING AROUND YOU? Are you WILLING to ACCEPT THE CHANGE THAT IS UPON US? It’s time for a SHIFT. A METAMORPHOSIS, a MODIFICATION, a DIFFERENCE….LIFE doesn’t get better by CHANCE, it gets better by CHANGE.” — Charlamagne Tha God

Perfect timing! I just heard this song two days ago, but Charlamagne’s quote definitely resonated with me. Dope record! And she’s only 19 years old…

“I am not interested in artificial facts claimed by self-appointed masters of my fate. I flip birds to paradigms too cocky to see their own demise. I know that history will have me standing on a side and so with every word, every thought and every story I tell I choose which side I wish to be remembered on…I don’t cast stones. I don’t need to. I simply draw the truth with everything I do, for everyone to see. It’s up to them whether they open their eyes or not. I trust the truth and so I don’t fret over which way will be the most right, I just choose the way that is right for me and let everything else be.” — Chani Nicholas

I used to read AstrologyZone regularly, but I connect with Chani Nicholas’ commentaries and readings so much more! Sometimes, it feels like she’s reading my mind…

In my prison cell writing away with Kierra Sheard’s Free on repeat for last two days. Haile Selassie once said: “Any who may wish to profit himself alone from the knowledge given him, rather than serve others through the knowledge he has gained from learning is betraying knowledge and rendering it worthless.” With God on my side, I speak victory into the atmosphere.
