WE MADE YOUR FAMILIES RICH
​
​Those insurance companies, and banking industries got rich off of slavery. The free labor of slaves built this country, and they know the truth. Their generational wealth wasn't earned. A lot of it was stolen.

Every woman, man, and child really need to watch this video! Especially black or melanated people. "Emancipation is not freedom." The descendants of slaves built the wealth of America, and this American country hasn't made any attempts of atonement. Bump that!

The facts "The Proud Family" characters are sharing in this video is everything.
It is the best collection of why the soil of White Supremacy continues to grow.

Daddy Yankee and Don Omar are two men I would like to meet and hang out with. Usher is one young brother I would love to skate with. Those things are not as important to me as Martin Luther King! Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is a man I truly love for his dedication and sacrifice to the struggle of liberation for his tribe or people. I adore Martin for having the courage to straighten his back up and demand life, liberty, and the pursuit of the distribution of wealth for his people. Dr. King wasn’t afraid to die for it! I extremely appreciate his legacy of laboring for an inclusive America. There is no denying that Dr. King was the victimization of inspiration to the world.

There are still so many conniving American methods that our American system thrives on, in oppressing melanated or black people. Dr. King called them “illegal injunctions.” Despite their opposition to see black people as human beings and as Americans, King made our government write new laws that affected us. King did not ask. He did not beg. He demanded it with a little bit of help from friends at the Operation Breadbasket. King changed the incomes of his people. Millions of dollars were granted to the black community. Assets doubled. White folks owned everything (still do), but they were very humble when King threatened economic withdrawal. We unfortunately have to still break some of the same chains. King summoned the consciousness of America into some righteousness. “The plant of freedom has only grown a bud and not a flower.”

Martin Luther King taught us how to organize our strengths. All social change comes from community organization. Martin King was concerned about the poor. America isn’t. Why would we allow all of these immigrants into our country and NOT take care of our own homeless population. That makes no sense. There shouldn’t be any veterans or any persons living in the streets of a country that has a reputation for being rich.

A false sense of superiority told black folks for decades they were ugly and a nobody. Dr. King rewrote that narrative and told us we were black and beautiful. This is why we will wear it on our attire. He said we were somebody. I think it is imperative for a lot of parents to affirm their children with those words. As long as the mind is enslaved, the body can never be free. Dr. King gave us a voice when they wanted us voiceless, and King disturbed the white power structures by gaining power and empowering his people. They didn’t like it, so they killed him because he was too much of a threat. They still don’t like our unity. 

Love may be in the air so grab some. It's always good to groove to the tunes of great love songs. My goal is to make these songs as mushy as possible...lol! You know my signature is the preference of old school music. Especially when it is Black Music Month. Relax and listen!

These oldskool songs bring back the best memories. Remember how you felt in that moment when you were driving in the car with your "boo" and this song had the nerve to come on every time you love birds got in the car. Or he played it in the car on purpose because he knew you liked it. It was the theme you guys had to flirt with. Before he dropped you off or got out of his car, of course he could get a kiss goodnight. He was the sweetest and you know you wanted his lips on yours. You always gave him one because in those days the men were a bit more mannerable. Sometimes they would ask "Can I get a kiss goodnight" and other times it just happened spontaneously! Yeah!

There are some men and women that cross our paths that we will never forget. If you are with that person, that's great! I'm happy for you. We can't control who we like, love or fall in love with. So, no matter who you end up with, you will always love the one that you feel got away or the person you believe you were meant to be with. Hopefully you are with him or her but if not, this song is perfect for the reality that it does happen. Will you settle or will you opt in growing old alone? You will always have love for that special person who left that love stain in your heart. 

Word up! Like oh, my, goodness! This song makes you feel so good when you listen to it. When you are really into the vibe of another person and the feeling is mutual, there are sparkles in your eyes. Maybe even butterflies too! The look, the oxytocin feeling, the love dance, plus romance leads to the magic of this song. This is definitely a slow jam goodie. When he looks at you and you see a sparkle in his eyes, gurrrrl  he loves you. Okay, maybe a very strong like. 😊

Jody Watley was part of the group Shalamar along with Howard Hewitt and her boyfriend, Jeffrey Daniel.This classic love song was another jam we grew up on. If our parents listened to it, the song was embedded into our brain. It was all over the place when a man made up his mind to ask his lady to marry him. The best thing about writing love songs with marriage proposals as the theme is limitless royalties. You know people are going to play this at weddings, always. It's got to be real because he said he can write a book on how you make him feel. You are good at making him laugh too. With this ring he assures you that there aren't any maybes. He is sure you are the one girl! Congratulations to all the summer love. 

You were in high school acting like your crush on those young men and women was everything. All you did was think about him or her. Unfocused as ever...lol. We couldn't wait to get to school each day for that special person to walk our way. We made sure we looked cute or fly. This song brings back such good memories. It can also bring about different perceptions of love in an unlustful way. You can definitely attach the title of the song to friends or family that you miss. I used to dislike beans. All I do is think about cooking and eating beans more. I honor a family member by cooking beans often, like every week. She loved beans.

Hey! I said hey, don't stop the romance on each other. Keep it going. Your mate or partner desires it. Romance him. Romance her. Get new ideas. It's really the best prerequisite to a love attack when they least expect it. Glenn Jones is on a mission to encourage you not to get complacent in romancing your lady or man. Love attacks kill stress and bad moods. Kiss her before you leave for work. Hug him before he leaves for work. Get off that phone and give him your full attention when he comes home. Pick up dinner once in a while so she won't have to cook. Even if she enjoys cooking. Surprise him at work with lunch. Text, write mushy love notes to each other.  Research ways to please each other. You guys have only just begun. Life is short. Be romantic and create those good memories.

I had to add this particular song again. Only because I recently got on stage and sang this song last month during karaoke. Yes, I did. The stage was huge. There was a live band behind me, but no one was playing the instruments. It's nice to have a love of your own. Don't wait until too late to give, so that you can get love. You have to take a chance. I know this band is not all melanated black folks, but this group was well received by those in the melanated community. I wish you all the joy of having a wonderful love of your own. This is good Black Music Month music to snuggle up close to. Add it to your library. According to these lyrics, The longer it takes, the better you come to know, a love of your own. 

Go ahead and throw all the negative shade you want to, but history was made as Halle became the first melanated "Little Mermaid." Halle Bailey is absolutely an elevated piece of elegance in that silvery white goddess dress. Halle gimme that entire look. Thank you for giving us all of that good energy as you rock that gown in all of your magic. The hair and the stare are beautiful elements of wow! No one can deny it!

Gone gurrrrl! You look amazingly gorgeous! Thank you for giving us tons of ideas to hunt down the perfect black dress. Gimme all of those detailed lines printed in the style of this dress. You guys see how impactful those designs are, right? This black dress was made especially for a queen named Halle! Gimmie that!

Halle is a brown skin girl. She deserves the best in the world. Her skin is just like pearls. Why not have this kind of image playing the role as a mermaid? Look at Halle in this stunning dress. You know she is glowing from head to toe! The top of her gown is dripping with a feathery tease of attention. I believe that her back is out. The waistline is strategically designed to remind you that Halle is a mama of fashion. Gimme that entire look. Ooowee!

Sophistication came by caressing your mind with Halle Bailey right on time in this look. We all stopped in awe of her presence. Halle girl, gimme that bliss of wonderfulness stitched in the perfect capture of your essence. The breast, the upper and lower designs of this dress make a statement that "you are the best" don't stop rocking your melanin magic.

I forgot how tremendous the healing power of music is. The right song can help create a better mood and perhaps heal you. This weekend, continue to protect your energy! Listen to music that you normally don't make time for or listen to.

"Walk On Water" is a very uplifting song, by Lena Byrd Miles. Those of you who do not listen to gospel music will definitely and instantly like this song. I promise. Think outside of the box. You can do it! Ain't no room for excuses. Do it, do it, do it NOW because time isn't ours. Accomplish every goal. Talk to yourself and say "I got this" to build your confidence. Listen to the lyrics and get ready to receive. You will be encouraged to walk on your own water. Basically, believing in YOU enough to go after those thoughts and dreams. 

I am elated and I celebrate the young people at the Hillcrest High School in Alabama for standing up for their rights and fighting back. Although Gucci will forever be wack and short of no support. We have to protect our little brown skin girls from all of the Mr. Madden Canes who get off the hook for playing insane like they're deranged. That move didn't work for Lionel Tate. He can get out soon if he signs up to have his organs removed. Sundown towns are still around. Just ask the brown in Vidor, Texas. Pay attention to these important black history mentions and check out your neighbors' intentions.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN (no doubt they not)

Madden Cane killed and raped an eight-year-old black girl, and he got off. Cane broke her skull with a shovel. The judge (Anne O'Connell) dismissed Cane case stating he was mentally ill. In 2017 Cane preyed on another individual and the judge let him go. Cane should not be permitted to exist in society. Then Cane did it again two years later, stealing an 8-year-old girl iPad, killing and raping her. If Madden Cane was a black man, he would have been arrested and in jail, without hesitation. Women like Judge Anne O'Connell ensure that their adjudications will always benefit them, and it often does. Stop voting for these judges who do not serve your community righteously. The melanated community is exhausted from knowing that if the little 8-year-old was a little white girl, somehow and in every way possible, Madden Cane would be in jail or in a mental institution. They do not see any value in individuals labeled as black, African Americans or even melanated. Black people get a different set of rules, and the narrative is wicked when criminal justice is applied to them, their kids, and family members when they have encounters with these biased judges. Collectively, they humanize the situation if the victim or even the perpetrator is European. If you are melanated, you are summoned to a full glass of demonizing. The family of the 8-year-old girl received no justice. Dear Black Man, you have to start policing your own communities. 

ORGAN VIBES FOR PRISONER LIVES

I just had to give some attention to this mention. In the state of Massachusetts, the legislators have introduced a bill allowing prisoners to get out of jail sooner if they agree to be organ donors. The first thing that pops up in my mind is the mistrust and abuse our government used towards melanated people in the past and throughout history. Will our family members have accidental deaths so their organs can be taken? They love those melanated organs. What do you really think is going on here?

LIONEL TATE'S FATE

This particular story is a teachable moment, especially to parents who are quick to leave their children with anyone at homes they know little about. Stop doing that, please! Can you imagine asking your girlfriend to keep your daughter and she agrees but when you pick her up, she is dead? Crazy, right? The mother of Lionel Tate knew her son had issues. Parents know their own kids, well. Why did she leave her son along with the little girl? Tate had a turbulent history of fighting and misbehaving. Lionel was stealing in school. Lionel was playing roughly with his mom's friend daughter, and he killed her. The little girl had damages to her skull, ribs and brain. If there was no one to intervene or to help prevent Lionel Tate from getting worse, its imminent he would get in trouble with the law? If the mother of Tiffany Eunick was aware of how troubled her girlfriend's son, Lionel was, I don't think she should've asked her to keep her daughter at her house. Accidents can happen anywhere, but some things can be prevented.
​
At the age of 12, Lionel Tate was charged with the murder of 6-year-old Tiffany Eunick. He was originally sent to life in prison at 12. Lionel Tate sentence was overturned, as it should have been. What is the difference between a 29-year-old man who killed and an 8-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy who killed a 6-year-old girl?  Madden Cane is a white male who never went to jail. The judge said he was mentally incompetent to go to jail. Lionel Tate was a 12-year-old black boy sentenced to life in prison at 12, for killing Tiffany Eunick. Yes, Tate should be held accountable for his actions but why wasn't Tate given no jail time and allowed to use the mentally incompetent plea? I wonder why!

WATCH YOUR BACK THEY WILL ATTACK

We have to mentally soak in some discernment. Mr. Murray lived in a state that has the worst history of the KKK, Jim Crow and White Supremacy, Alabama. His neighbor, Morgan Barnhill did not like black folks. He intentionally invited Etienne over to his house and killed him with a shovel. Again, black people, stop going places with people you barely know. Stop going over to your neighbor's house when you're the only melanated person there.

Morgan Barnhill used his white privilege and lied to the police. He told the police that he was defending himself from Murray. Nothing happened to him. No jail time for him. Do you see why melanated people are exhausted? Barnhill said he always wanted to kill a n*gger. He accomplished his goal.

SUNDOWN TOWNS SICK DOGS ON THE BROWN

According to the women in the video, her father's dad was the mastermind in the dog hunting of black people in Vidor, Texas. Don't go down there. Then people in the United States often feel some kind of way when melanated people bring up any remembrance of their history. These illegal injuries were dissolved around 1985. Where do you think that kind of energy went? Is it still around? Yes! It is in our systemically biased institutions, in these "Karens" and in all things not united in America.

TRYING TO SUPRESS OUR HISTORY IS NO MYSTERY

Black Americans are unfortunately used to fighting the dominant society for their rights and freedoms. The students at Hillcrest High School in Tuscaloosa are no different. Over 200 students walked out and protested against the administrators telling them they couldn't use certain words in their 2023 Black History Program because one of the administrators felt very uncomfortable with words like "civil rights," and slavery. If that is the case black people feel uncomfortable every day in every profession and neighborhood.

GUCCI IS WACK...HAPPY BLACK HISTORY FACTS

Please pay attention. A lot of melanated people are aware of this incident and some still make the choice to support this company. Some do not support them. Not me!

As promised, I will be giving you a taste of some Chicago Hip Hop artist only. I know I could celebrate and show-off Ye, Common, Lupe, and Chance, just to name a few. They are all from Chicago. I selected to give you even more great music so that you can be aware of what you've been missing, or for you to just add good music to your library. Don't be shy about listening to their other songs. I believe most of the artist are still active. These particular artists have been in the game for 20 years or more. They work behind the scenes and in front.

If ya don't know, now you know. Vice has been plugged in the background and in the front as an MC, writing and producing nothing but that "bobbing head music" we enjoy vibing to.

"How about you call me after nine" because I ain't got no minutes. We all used to say this! This song resonated so well with how we all acted, when we didn't have enough minutes to talk on our cellphones back in the day. Que Billah was an artist who mixed comedy with real social issues we have in our world. Its half pass the time for you to get an unlimited talk and text message plan on your phone. I'm just saying! 😂😂😂

My favorite is "Cook Dem Gritz by Code F.I. babee! I like the dance the kids made up. The beats are fat. The production team and artist were dope. The entire video was a hit! If you listen to this song one time, you will be singing it all day long. It's catchy. They were actually making light of how drastically sad and depressing the music industry has become. You can make a song about bull*** and folks will buy it! Google Code F.I. You're going to be surprised of what you've missed out on.

I saved the best lyricist for last. Notice how she is the only female representing the Chi. Lah Tere is her name. Lah is full of power and love. She will empower you to stand up, take action, and to move.

SBhiphop just won't stop. This brotha is from Chicago. He was born and raised in these hip hop streets. He kind of reminds you of that Common energy. SB is always spitting something major in your ear. SB is creative and positive. Check out his other music.
