With the honoring of the Civil War (beginning 150 years ago this week), one might compare what the military has become now as opposed to back then. In this comparison, we honor those who served our nation and our people, but do we still feel the need to serve as our ancestors once did?
There is great pride to be found in our history with the military. However in this current military where do we fit in and should we?

It is bad enough this is not Ms. Knowles/Mrs. Carter’s first brush with changing her pigmentation.
I really can’t see how this uplifts but does show Beyonce has lost her roots. Destiny’s Child or the next Chicken George?
Beyonce, get it together girl. Maybe you been hanging on that island Jay bought you a little too long. Better get out of the sun and into the light!

So, do we still need a Black History Month?
It’s been about 3 centuries since we were removed from our continent and stripped of our land and identities, about two centuries since Lincoln freed the slaves, almost half a century since the Civil Rights Act was passed and 2 plus years since we elected a black president.

However, there are those who wish to take Christ out of Christmas. It’s unfortunate because they deny themselves the wonder and awe of God’s presence in the gift of life, which is elevated through the dignity of the divine becoming one with us.

Once upon a time Kwanzaa rivaled Christmas and negative white people actually feared the power and unity created by this EVENT! Our kids learned history, tradition and honor. People lined up at Reader’s Choice and other black stores to buy their Kwanzaa kits and made it a truly powerful, enriching holiday. News stations gathered around to show our pride and power, now they just run a 30-second fluff piece on December 26th.
Really, is that how it’s going down?

“The very first effort of the colored people should be to lay hold of them; and then they will take such root in this American soil that only the convulsive upheaving of the judgement-day can throw them out!”
