SISTAH SOULJAH SPEAKS: For those still screaming about black on black violence stating that until we do better we wont be respected. This is for you. Because, you seem to either A) Never had payed any attention in history class B) Payed attention but refuted your own American history C) Submitted to being indoctrinated as a passive subservient follower to a system managed by white supremacy, promoted through religion, and subconsciously fed to your through the media, teaching you to settle for less. If it wasnt for my HS (step) coaches, college professors, mentors, and my mother I would have never learned to have aspire for more v.s. settling for less. They helped me discover my inner strength. THIS IS MY TRUTH. It motivates me to inspire other impressionable young minds to improve their emotional intelligence, academic intelligence, and morality. Regardless of their culture, denomination, race, or whatever I desire more for youth, BUT especially black youth, because I was actively denied more due to my blackness being offensive in America. The school system itself, the american system did NOT teach me to love myself. If it wasnt for my black mentors revealing my history and speaking truth I could of been another lost soul out killing another brother or sister possibly. The TRUTH is dont speak about BLACK ON BLACK VIOLENCE (the term is absurd) IF YOU ARE NOT ACTIVELY MENTORING OR DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! TEACH THESE BLACK KIDS TO LOVE THEIR SELF V.S. GROWING TO BE SELF HATING! TEACH THESE WHITE KIDS TO LOVE THEIR SELF, AND BLACK BROTHERS/SISTERS WITHOUT FEELING GUILTY!!! SHIT IS REAL...MIKE BROWN IS ONE OF MANY, AND THOSE WHO JUST SIT AND HOPE TO LEAVE IN A UTOPIA WHERE THE ISSUES OF RACE ARE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG V.S. ACTIVELY ADDRESSED ARE JUST AS BAD AS THOSE ACTIVELY DEMONIZING AND OPPRESSING URBAN YOUTH! Those who want unity need to be real with their self. Unity wont come just pretending to be equal. No recognize, address, and fight to eliminate systematic racial injustices. Well celebrate the rainbows together when you help with the storm damage caused by a system YOU may have not created, but that you benefit from. We gotta be real if were going to get anywhere. #SOULution
