Emancipation From Mental Slavery.

That was several hundred years ago!

But this is the 21st Century.

And there are still too many people out there in the black community who have chained themselves down in mental slavery. Since this problem is self-inflicted, not even a thousand Harriet Tubmans can help set them free. And sadly, a considerable number of them is young. Under the shameful circumstance therefore, the future of the black community is terribly bleak!

The situation is so critical now that these young people keep taking one step forward while, unwittingly, they take many steps backward.

• To them, education stinks.
• A college education, on the other hand, is an abomination in their sight.
• Anyone that speaks good English around them is acting "white".
• Whoever dresses and looks proper is not real.
• Those who embrace hard work as a virtue are considered dumb.
• To a 4th grade drop-out, having a decent $10 job is too cheap and not worth keeping.
• The only ambition of these young people is---either get rich quick or die trying.
