Well, no... on second thought, this is for DrPhil. I will be sitting in a concert on August 23rd, and it's too bad you won't be joining me: http://youtu.be/x2FDHYKDaE0
Can someone ban AzTheta for being a tease.

And while you all are speaking in general, the 1960s-1970s did not have the same impact on BGLOs as it did on the NPC-IFC. While there were people of the African Diaspora who were anti-establishment and did not want to attend college and/or pledge a BGLO, the hippie and Vietnam thing had a greater impact on whites and was far surpassed in the Black communities by things like the Civil Rights Movements (plural), Black Panther Party, Afrikan movements, etc. This led some Blacks to challenge the existence of BGLOs and other Blacks to stress the importance of BGLOs, other Black organizations, and various ways to express Black and African Diasporic cultures.
