Me lately |
So lately I’ve been
coming across a lot of rant about discrimination because of the color of your
skin some things I read hear and see says I get hate because I’m too light
skinned the others on the complete opposite end of the spectrum say they get
hate because they are to dark. So I’ll
say this what about us Black Americans
or for those that prefer it African Americans who are right smack in the middle
like myself—I say to those on the other color spectrum suck it up get over it
and don’t poison our new generations minds with the hate that not just other
races may have but the obvious racism that our very own have toward each
other. We the middle medium of brown
/red/yellow skin tones catch hate from both sides, but you never hear us complaining.

We are all beautiful –black is beautiful –just
as every color is. Have you ever seen a rainbow it is one of God’s most magnificent
creations of nature as are we all.

We are like a great
collection of shoes. We all are of
different colors mixes heights widths and styles but at the end of the day the
collection is still fierce especially as a group/people. The collection is only as strong as its
weakest link
<-- as
clichés as that is, but its true as a
people we need to get past skin color because we have bigger issues as a people
and as a nation—national dept anyone.
We need to uplift
each other and stop being like crabs in a bucket. Our world has progressed to much to let that
slave mentality continue to rule who we are as a people. Don’t mistake we must not forget the past or
we are bound to repeat it but we must use it to make ourselves strong before it’s
too late.

Food for thought |
History is written, but it’s up to “US” to write a new
chapter and to not keep repeating the 1
st
and 2
nd chapters over and over there is no new history unless we
change it….it’s like knowing your favorite pair of heels are worn out and it
being time to replace them it only make your wardrobe that much better. Besides the initial draw may be outward beauty, but in the end its your personality, character and drive is what keeps you not your looks.....THAT FADES!
And that's My Word..!!
