					<description><![CDATA[We have gotten off our path.  Money has now taken over and it is all about &quot;my&quot; wealth, &quot;me&quot; education, etc...

We cry and demand but our elite do not back us with decisions like this.

Our black elite come out of $$$ purposes and when you call them out on it people are too blind in love with them to see it for what it is.

Then they justify because they would do the exact same thing.

Just mention why with us controlling that sneaker market why we still have NOT created a Black owned company to endorse our names? Ask them. They get mad. Say it doesn&#039;t matter. They don&#039;t realize Jordan made Nike and Nike was an upstart and he could have gone with established companies like converse.   So the excuse of established gets tossed and they will dream up a new one.

I saw a dedication for those killed in Orlando. Nice. A REAL dedication. Not like the rehashed him shaking routine that was suppose to honor a the Black Panthers. I&#039;ve shown many people willing to open their mind and eyes that it was nothing more than an album promotion.

Our elite recycles wealth right back to the very people we complain about.  Just our average person does the same.  The world know we are the market to exploit and everyone is doing it. And WE are BUYING it.

We are NOT making progress we THINK we are making.  Family values have taken a back seat.
Too much to commit to marriage but not too much to commit to raising a child as a single parent but will openly complain about it. Really?

Boys aren&#039;t being raise properly but we think so because we see them walk across at a HS graduation with his sagging pants underneath. Watch someone defend that. Smh.

Girls aren&#039;t being raise to be girls. They are being taught to replace the man and I&#039;m talking in character and mannerisms not money.

We think this criminal Justice reform is for us. HA!!  What MORE dobwe need to see wool is being pulled over our eyes?

This is for THEM. To keep their precious ones from a jail record because of the more open behavior and getting caught with drugs and other issues. 

We and they accept the privileged label rather than call them the criminal like we complain they call us.

White rspist gets off with 6 months county jail. And with practically NO MEDIA who do we have to blame? Banks? Really? 

When I learned of Black Wall Street it changed so much and it needs to change us and stop putting so much time in complaining and waiting and sacrificing instead for the future of our race.

I&#039;m telling you. Other races WILL own and prosper. While we wallow in glorification of one man or woman&#039;s riches that really mean nothing to us and more to a race that has oppressed us. Because we will give back 20 mil in a second to them to own that mansion right? But uh... How many millions went to Flint? OUR people dying and devastated. We have it. We just don&#039;t give it up to our own people so I don&#039;t have applause to huge contracts and gains.

It is sick that we give applause and dedications and claims of how those before us changed our lives but our ACTIONS speak otherwise.

Media is a requirement. We complain for a reason. So why isn&#039;t it a priority?  Why aren&#039;t we making a full fledge broadcast channel our priority? We think social media has replaced it? Lol. Smh.

We better get our priorities straight and be just as willing to demand FROM OUR PEOPLE as we are from the white community.  

Demanding from a black president with a white congress for at most 8 years is NOT going to get it done. Never was. 

We either get going with this or prepare to take a back seat and remain dependent on others.

If Tulsa could do it why can&#039;t we with more wealth in our communities and more of us with way more money than they had along with access to resources.

We can keep putting it off or wait until it is now or never. Then it might be too late.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am so sorry to hear this. This is the way all newspapers and written media are going. If people stop purchasing this media, it cannot survive. Our middle class is down to about nothing, all children are interested in reading their cellphone post. Washington Times, NY Times and other well read media have gone the same way. How can you expect people to carry on with no purchasers? We are the people who were the primary support of these reading materials and so many of the readers are not working or barely working.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I live in Montreal and I see less and less Ebony Magazine in newstands and libraries.  I am sure it is not a coincidence!  I never saw here Black Enterprise Magazine.  This also is not a coincidence.  The one thing that Whites do not want us to do is become entrepreneurs to remain dependant on them!!!]]></description>
