I hope EVERY BODY in AMERICA watched the speech that President Barak Obama gave on The Edmund Pettus Bridge today Honoring the 50th anniversary of BLOODY SUNDAY and the People who were beaten for our FREEDOMS in AMERICA……It was truly the beginning of a new American mindset if anyone was listening…..Our President really embodies the American Spirit……When we lose this President we are going to lose a bright future for America….His speech was a letter to young American Black Men letting them know that you are never too young to embark on the FREEDOM RIDE…Martin Luther King was in his twenties when he started fighting for the freedoms of black people… He was 39 when he was murdered for the fight ……..Barak Obama sets the standard for what young black men can be in this country today and the standard is high but clearly not unattainable…..Although the work is no where near done the torch is ready to be passed …..STAND UP YOUNG BLACK MEN and do the work…LET GO OF THE CYNISM WE HAVE REGARDING AMERICA…….DO NOT LET THE PAIN OF THE PAST HAVE THE LAST WORD!!!!!!!…..
Having said that I do have a question why is it that in this day and era does “the voting rights act” have to be renewed into law every few years…….Not sure of that one…..Does white america have to renew their voting rights???????…..So I say to my Black Brothers & Sisters TIME TO CROSS A BRIDGE……..
