Biochemical Slang. Hood TRUTH Soldiers. We on a mission.
Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don't know each other; they don't know each other because they can not communicate; they can not communicate because they are separated.
None of us got where we are solely by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps. We got here because somebody - a parent, a teacher, an Ivy League crony or a few nuns - bent down and helped us pick up our boots.
Some people say, "How can you live without knowing?" I do not know what they mean. I always live without knowing. That is easy. How you get to know is what I want to know.
Any real change implies the breakup of the world as one has always known it, the loss of all that gave one an identity, the end of safety. And at such a moment, unable to see and not daring to imagine what the future will now bring forth, one clings to what one knew, or dreamed that one possessed. Yet, it is only when a man is able, without bitterness or self-pity, to surrender a dream he has long cherished or a privilege he has long possessed that he is set free â he has set himself free â for higher dreams, for greater privileges.
A man once told me that you step out of your door in the morning, and you are already in trouble. The only question is are you on top of that trouble or not?

Hey Vik,it's the weekend and I have time to check your fabolous blog...
It seems like the media is always downplaying what a black athlete will do as if they're all athletic and not smart.
Middle linebackers like Ray Lewis and Al Wilson base their strength on proper fundamentals and film studying.Ed Reed is another example,but I've stopped caring about what "the white media" thinks to be frank.Look at how they never downplay Urlacher though,who's mostly instinctive and athletic over cerebral...what a joke!!
hey robert,
you might as well push the mute button before you watch the game. yeah, and it goes deeper than football. how many times will obama and hillary have to "defend" their race and gender?
you definitely should pick up the book blind side that i linked to. if you haven't done so already, you'd love the book "the ticket out"
