very true......i have said mindframe and mentality.Absolutely.
The order is the individual, the family, the household, the community, the nation, and then the world.
Nation building takes time. What seems to be the disconnect between fortifying the black household and the black community, which has always striked me as a misnomer?
One symptom seems to be inclusivity. We invite anyone to the proverbial "bbq" for the most surface level actions. A white man sings R&B, he's in. A Chinese man breakdances, he's in. A white woman pumps her body up enough, she's in. And suddenly the "black community" is just a multi cultural hub where blackness is but a incidental existence instead of the default principle like in Greek town, China town, or white bread, USA.
We need a hightened degree of selfishness and exclusivity. If we are all we have when one of us gets shot by a bloodlusting cop, we need to be all we have during peacetime.
we need to allow the renegade people stay out....i remember when crystal said that shit about black people .....instead of not buying it anymore....niggas didnt know enough about anything else that had a good name mentioned in rap so they kept buying it.
we are the ones that say whats important yet we have no say in whats important.
