Even the slogan Black Lives MAtter is in my opinion subservient and pandering. We may as well be screaming "See Our Humanity!" My biggest beef with my parents is that all my life growing up they told me "everything was everything love everybody, everybody equal," when they should've told me that there is no such thing as equal and we can't be equal to thems people because we are BETTER than those people. But they know even less about being FBA than I did growing up. My folks could tell you who sang what, what movie so and so played in, but I didn't learn about (true) Black empowerment until late into my life. Even the Black history classes I took weren't quite up to par. It took me reading Malcolm X before things started to crystallize and wasn't until I was introduced to Steve Cokely, and Dr. Neely Fuller Jr. and of course the ISIS papers before everything made sense. I'm lucky to have made it this far in life being so misinformed and misdirected.
