  • History & roles played

    Dear Readers,

    After watching the movie Panther, the other night it got me to thinking. Black history is filled with historic events. I decided to write about two historic events, which are slavery, and civil rights movement. In this essay/ blog am writing would reflect on the those events in history and the affect it had during it’s time, moreover if I was living in those times, as a black men that I am what role would I play in the fight to end slavery & segregation.

     

    The time of slavery, is time in American history that never really cares to look back on too. However I am doing to do just that. Know if I was a slave in those times, with my mind frame or sense, I would have wanted to be free. I know it’s not as easy as it seem. I agree, but I would have heard of such things as underground rail rood. I damn sure would of hitch a ride on it. If amounts my kind, would have come up with a plan to free ourselves such as escaping, I would have joined in.

     

    Enough of the minor detail in such plans to free myself, however I would have play a roll in the battle to free my “people”.  What I mean is I would have been a soldier in the civil war, against the southern in the hope of ending slavery in the confederate states. That surely would have been a cause I would of lay my life on the line for.

     

    Whoa if times were hard for a black person, I knew you would have not wanted to be black during post slavery times & into segregation. However, am going to pull myself smack down during the civil right movement.  Moreover join in the fight to end segregation all over the United States. I would have been part of the non violent movement of Dr King preach. Being that is not that religions now, I doubt I would have join in the Islam faith. That doesn’t mind I would have not listened to Malcon X speeches. Just would not have approach things his way.

     

     

    No matter what age I would have been, I would have made myself visual able, during the civil rights movement. I know I would have been part of the million man march to DC. I would have Boycotts anything & everything till we got a message across. Now to refer to the movie I was watch that inspires this essay/blog. I would have joined into the Black Panther movement just on the strength of unity the black races, helped in educating ourselves. Plus making Dr King dreams into a reality.

     

                Inclusion might have not played a role in these historic events; however that doesn’t mean is not a blessing from it. Today I stand here as a free man & an educated brother. Who definitely appreciate what my founding fathers have done for me. To see that I didn’t grow up in a world or time they lived in.

  • sanctity of marriage

    This is a assignment, I wrote to improve my writing skills. I don't take this stands personality, but for the sake of the essay I took it. My Professor went in on me with her comment to it. Sorry I lost the Page or threw it away...

        To the editor,

    Hello my name is Prince Alexander and I am writing this letter in response to President Bush’s speech. Bush speech to the state of union address, had one important propose that caught my attention, was the Defense of Marriage Act, signed in 1996 by President Clinton. My belief is preventing lesbians and gay people from marrying, is the most effective way to “defend the sanctity of marriage”. In my personal opinion, supporting this type of relationship and allowing this commitment of gay people is a disgrace to the nation.

                For a priest to preach the word of God and turn around and perform these homosexual ceremonies contradicts their thoughts and ways of life. From the beginning of time, it’s been Adam and Eve. When a priest performs these wedding ceremonies he clearly states “Do you take this man to be your loftily wedded husband and do you take this woman to be your loftily wedded wife until death do you part”. What can a priest say if there are two men or two women that want to marry each other? We should not comprise just too made them gays and lesbians happy, and change it around for them.

                Lesbians and gay people are polluting and corrupting the world. I believe that in this country, there are many lesbians and gay people in high places. For television shows that portray homosexual actions like “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” and “Will and Grace, there being a homosexual school. Is a true example of there being a lesbians and gay people in high places. The matter with this is parent come home from a long day at work and comes to find her child watch these homo show on television. Living this way of life is not doing your duty as a human being. Males being with each other is not doing what they are put on this Earth for, to be a Man, to be a man is to be a father and take care of your responsible. Females being with each other is not doing what they are put on this Earth for, to be a Woman, a woman being a caretaker and a joy in her man life.

     Keeping this movement going on is going to start new millennium segregation. On the basic of religions and the people safety in the nation, prevent lesbians and gay people from marring are the most effect way to “defend the sanctity of marriage”. This is not like interracial marriage when in time we’re going to have to understand it. No I will never understand and promote or allow these lesbian and gay marriages.  I see it as a man for a woman and a woman for a man.

  • Timely Advice

     Dear Readers,

          This is I just ranting on. What to talk about, I have one thing  on my mind crazy. I should of wrote this blog sooner. Well I got invited to a wedding this month. My JHS friend is getting marry. Funny dude. He is getting marry this Saturday that would make it tomorrow. I got invited three weeks ago you can say. No am confusing it I got invited within the month of March, maybe late February. I got into detail with that later on in the blog.

         I get invited to this party to the same day. By my home girl from college she Married. Her brother turning fifty and she invited me to come. However she said I think you should come. Which at first reading it had me a little puzzle. I am 25 years of age, what do I look like partying with dude I don't know who's turning fifty. Funny thing is I only know her and it's was going to be in her sister house. So I ask her why she like I should come, and her respond was for some food and drink. Which is cool, but my place do have food itself and I  have a bottle in my room.

         So it's not wooing me that much. I would of love to have went to this party, however am mostly going to not attend plus I told her am not going. Kind of disappoint would of love to go see her again. Not like that, she is a very good friend to I. It reminds me how I got invited to a lunch date with my former manage and co-worker. I didn't attend because, I felt like if I go, am only going for the free meal. & I don't get down like that so I decided to not show. I go to my old job site just to see them, not expecting nothing, but hopfully to get my job back lol, however this Wednesday coming up, I plan to go and if she has the afternoon free, then we do lunch.

       Love ya Opinions on this subject am about to touch. How my friend came to invited me to his wedding. He was lock up and a common friend of ours work in the Jail he was at. So he was chatting with him telling him how he got lock up and shit. However, that's not important he tells him he getting marry and wants him and me to go to the wedding. So after work my boy calls me to inform me of what just happen. It was crazy to much to think about close to two something in the morning.

       Finally I gotten to chat with the soon to me husband. Am going to give ya the short version of the conversation. He was like come I am going to email you the information about the wedding. I got the email, however it lack on important detail. The day of the wedding. The only reason I know it's tomorrow is because my other friend told me when we had a laugh about it. This is my problem I would say I know why he invited me, and on the other hand I know why he didn't invited me.

      So in conclusion, I would like ya opinion on the situation of, what you think is his reason for inviting me, what should I do about attending. Also, anything you would like to add.

    REFLECTION

     

    Like the soap opera

    As the world turns

    What the future has in store for us

    Who Knows??!!
    Things that seem permanent

    Has now been terminated

    Good deals

    Went way wrong

    Sure things

    Can’t count on no more

    As day pass by

    & new day’s come

    Don’t look any better then yesterday

    Not even joking around

    Thank the most high

    For my family that I'm close with

    & Friends for Life

    I’m really going to depend on you guys

    To bring me out of these dark times

    For love ones gone

    You reflect on the times spent

    With them, sweet memories

    I really miss my Guiding Light

    When she was around

    Everything went right

    I am not lose with out her

    Just a little confuse

    That’s why my heart

    Sings the blue

    Don’t need a picture

    Taken of my current mood

    But like Melodies

    Music instruments

    I get back in my groove

    Creating a new tune

    Might title it this

    Might be about that

    One theme it will

    Possess is my life

    Reflection
