It sucks for him to be reduced to "Kappa Alpha Psi." haha.

No other group in America has so had their identity socialized out of existence as have black women... When black people are talked about the focus tends to be on black men; and when women are talked about the focus tends to be on white women.

What had begun as a movement to free all black people from racist oppression became a movement with its primary goal the establishment of black male patriarchy.

Well, I have been going to different forums today and stopped here too so, hello to all since this is my first time posting here.

So, my quotes:
"Never look down on someone unless you're helping them up"

"Be careful how you treat people on your way up cause you might meet 'em on your way down"

And one of my friends said this about community service: "I feel like I'm serving my God by serving his people" I almost cried! (Well, maybe I just got a little emotional)
