Okay I was agreeing with you, but you lost me at the “hair weaves and fancy cars means you have an identity crisis” comment. You lost all credibility at that point. What does that have to do with anything? Black people who drive nice cars are abandoning their blackness? Ridiculous statement. And as for the hair weave comment, I am really really so tired of black men saying this. For Christ’s sake, IT IS HAIR! So preferring to have a more manageable/versatile hairstyle means that you are pretending to be white? Not everyone black woman prefers to wear their hair natural, just like not every curly haired white person embraces their natural texture. What if an Asian woman with stick-straight Asian hair decided she wanted to get a curly perm? Is she denying her race! GTFOH – it is a damn hairstyle!! You wonder why black women are starting to treat black men with more and more disdain, stop finding petty reasons to belittle and criticize us!!!

Great article Marque! I respect how you offer solutions in your writings and not just address our issues like others do. I also appreciate the fact that you offer your time up to provide counseling and mentoring to people. In the age where most of our black leaders are selling us out, its refreshing to see a brother who actually cares for our people. Keep fighting to liberate the minds of our people my brother! Shalom and Blessings!

Great article and what I believe to be the truth.

Black Unity is the solution, 3ufirst.com is the plan.

Jacob email me at brainstormonline@yahoo.com and I will give you steps to deprogramming. First it depends on what programmed a person. Was it parents, church, religion, society, education, racism, past experiences, brainwashing, mind control or other indoctrination? What programmed a person has everything to do with how the de-programming must be initiated.

A person first has to realize he/she has been programmed with other people’s thoughts, not his/her own. That’s the case with many weed smokers. If we fight the truth and the facts while we ignore the harm, we are programmed. Self-destructive self-sabotage is programming.

You gotta find out what is keeping the programming locked in place. That is called “Maintenance”. Is it your role models? Is it TV, video games, what? Then you have to cut off the maintenance.

This just scratched the surface but email me for more info. This is what I do and ironically those programmed the deepest are those who fight me the most.

Joanie you hit the nail on the head with a sledge hammer. Justas many of our people have an inferiority complex, many Caucasian people have a superiority complex. They, as a whole, are no smarter. They just set up the board game and made the rules, thus they know how to play right out of the gate. If we did likewise, the same would be true,

Kirk you are missing the point. There is nothing wrong with having nice things but for too many of our people, the things HAVE THEM. Going into debt to buy what we can’t afford to impress others we don’t really like and convince everybody we are “ok”? Really Kirk?

Many of our people are buying things that depreciate in value. Many of our people are spenders and buyers, not investors for the future. Running up credit cards to compensate for no plan to acquire and no patience to wait for it.

I can feel your passion. Nothing is going to change externally unless change first happens on the inside. In order for that to happen, like the character Morpheus said in the movie The Matrix, we have to be willing to take the red pill. In that movie the red pill represented the painful truth of reality, while the blue pill represented the blissfulness that often comes from staying ignorant.
Many black people, by and large, are afraid. For all the posturing and chest beating, many of our men, at their core, are afraid of taking the red pill. So they build monuments to the illusion that the blue pill offers. All of this talk may sound silly until you recognize the fact that it was a Black woman named Sophia Stewart who wrote the Matrix movies (she won the lawsuit against Time-Warner in court for those of you who doubt). Could she have been sending a message to black people to wake up? I believe so.
Keep on being the voice that wanders in the wilderness. If you just get one person to wake up then you are successful.

Thank youfor a well written article. How does one de-program one’s mind besides what we stop feeding it? Once the manipulation of tv,media,education & religion is removed and replaced. It would appear that another onslaught on one’s thinking comes from the very food one is eating in the name of pleasure & comfort, as opposed to energy & healing. What do you suggest as a means to continue this vigilant, disiplined walk of healing thyself and passing on this information to those who want it ???
I am always open to continued instruction & actions to further develop. Reach me at lux101164uria@yahoo.com
