"We are more alike than unalike" - Maya Angelou

Although there are many real external obstacles that keep black men from living the lives that we want, often times the biggest barriers are internal and start with our way of thinking. In many cases the real understanding of racism, corruption, poor living conditions and broken homes can leave one with a feeling of isolation and despair. Too often we are defeated before we start - thinking it impossible to navigate the corrupt American seas filled with corporate sharks and political piranhas.

Black men you are not alone. You are not a minority and you have more power than you know. There are people to help and people who care. In fact, there are many more good people than bad and if we can tap into the collective strength of the masses we can achieve great things.

Hello Sharmela and Darrell,

Both of you are wrong and this is why. Both of you are in the box and thinking in the box. It will take one that is outside the box to lead all of us out-of-the-box.

Our only permanent solution is that we must desire to become a sovereign people on a fertile portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders to worship God, pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in our own way. Sovereignty is our only permanent solution and it is going to happen for us within my lifetime.

Am I making sense or am I not make sense?

What say you?

Thanks for the comments guys. Shamela, I went to your site and I like what you're doing. Keep it up!
Harry, America has got its problems but I'm staying and not in a separated territory. That's not working out too well for the Native Americans.
