Hey! Eh!!
Does anyone listen to Dead Prez? They have a song (Police State) on there where one of them says, "I've come to one conclusion, N****s ain't ready for revolution."
I think that this is very true. How far are our people really willing to go. My personal opinion, Caucasion allies are cool, but we can do without them and their system and their help. Like 1Woman said, the system and our needs and demands are always in conflict with one another. But our people are STILL and will probably ALWAYS try to right wrongs within the confines of this jacked up system. That includes the NAACP. It's as though we are afraid to rock the boat. Or we are afraid to take a stand, because we feel as though we have too much at stake, we stand to lose too much? We don't want to lose our jobs. We don't want the white people to think we are militants. We don't want to scare them. But what do we really stand to lose? Do we stand to lose more than we stand to gain in up coming years? Why do we never think back to the civil rights movement (why did it end???) and what they lost so that we could gain. ARGH!!!
Don't get me started... I'm just gonna stop right now.

"...N****s ain't ready for revolution...
The average Black male
lives a third of his life in a jail cell
and the world is controlled by the white male
and the people don't never get justice
and the women don't never get respected
and the problems don't never get solved
and the jobs don't never pay enough
that's why the rent always be late
Can you relate?
We livin' in a Police state..."
