We Accept Trash, Garbage and Mediocrity: Black people wake the f*&k up!

It amazes me how our black people have degraded themselves. Where it was once considered taboo to have a child out of wedlock, it's now common place; where it was once considered a good thing that a village helped raise a child, it's now frowned upon if anyone else disciplines a child other than the parent (and goodness help us if the parent then doesn't discipline that child). What has happened? Has our standards sunk so low that we will never see above sea level? Walking around, seeing grown ass men, in their 20s, 30s, and goodness sakes, 40s and 50s with their pants sagging below their asses like their getting ready to get fucked in prison? And then you have lil boys, from ages 5 on up doing the same thing. I disagreed with Bill Cosby on a lot of what he was saying but some of it is true. There is no reason why we continue to put emphasis on how expensive our clothing is, and how our vehicle looks and how we spend so much money making that vehicle, even if it's a clunker, look like it's 30k with rims. And why do we buy our children vehicles with rims? When are we going to focus on educating our children and ourselves to make sure we don't end up in situations where we have to struggle?

We are so caught up in this fake thuggery, that if a man isn't a thug, then he isn't a man. WTF kind of bullshit is that? And our women are just getting looser by the minute, my fellow man is getting more vile a minute (since when is it okay to just urinate out in the open instead of finding a damn bathroom?)

Our women are battling each other over some dude who just sees them as something to slide up in; nobody takes responsibility if a child is brought into the world. That's when names are called and it's like, you're calling her a hoe; you're calling him no good and a scrub who still lives with his mother but didn't you know that when you were fucking each other? Since when is it acceptable to call someone your baby's mother or your baby's father and not your husband, your wife, the love of your life, your boyfriend or your girlfriend? I see why we're going to hell in a handbag.

That's a very real and prevalent issue in our society. Theres such a need for Blacks to distinguish themselves as being opposites from whites that they take the notion and perverse it.

Having Black power is a catalyst for invention, revolution and a shakedown of the status quo but mining for those achievements does not mean we need to be plagued with medicority. You don't need to strap up with weapons because of our resitance for the use of proper english.

Freedom isn't gonna ring until our culture stops being held hostage to the ideals of bling, cash, money & ho's.
