My brother this year married a caucasian woman. Needless to say, I was devastated when the whole thing went down. YES, I was rather ruthless because I knew he way buying into the fact of what amerikkklan society what televising and advertising. However, I did attend both his wedding ceremony and reception. And although I chose not to be in his wedding (YES, I am the one who will have to face God and explain my actions) it basically broke down to this one thought: Am I going to ruin my brother's and my relationship for the rest of our lives for just a minimum of 2 hours of smiling even if it's fake? Can't I smile for just 2 hours? And I answered
yes to both questions...
I am a trying to broaden my experiences and become a Pan Afrikanist, much like W.E.B. Dubois, Nkembe Nkrumah and Ntokaze Shange (sorry for the spelling). The fact is pham, is why would this society want to espouse the development and strengthen the Afrikan family? Isn't it within unity, there is strength? Do you think the europeons would want that to seriously happen, really?
I love my bruhs and they have treated me like crap. And as much crap as I have taken from them, I still love 'em. I can't help myself to the taste of chocolate!
So for those out there that could go either way, never it ain't over till it's over. Ultimately what comes around, goes around and if you ain't straight with yourself, you won't find anyone to make it straight for jah...
I guess that's why HBO's Sex and the City is so popular...
Just my $0.08 cents worth.
