Leah Jack Florida St Univ class of 2011 Hi Johnathan, I appreciate your analysis but I think a major problem that people have is looking to the past for answers to the future. It is important to know the history of Black america but I feel like successful Black people need to make sure they spread their knowledge on how to become successful by reaching the young as early as possible.

Toni Odom Producer at Self Employed You both have valid points. What is needed is for each of us to develop mentality, spiritually and physically to our best and continue to create culture on a daily. That's what we do and we cannot continue to look at ourselves through white folks eyes. They can talk and show all the images they want but they need us and our creativity. The final frontier is a spiritual battle and we always win! Saturday, July 26th 2008 at 11:55AM

phil marlow North Carolina Central University class of 1978 When I hear the words, "rebirth of Culture", I think of a people that lives different from his enemies, a different religion, different language, basically living different, even different schools from the very people that treat us unfair. Giving a few jobs to black, giving a good education to a few blacks is never going to be the answer. We must take upon ourselves to do for ourselves and not depend on the uncle Toms that have simulated in the white society and make false promises then say,"we've come a long ways", and the truth is, that statement is a lie. I came before forced intergration and have hated it ever since. Intergration was happening on a gradual basic and would have continue but our leadership wanted power and money and they found this in leadership to no where. We are in a burning house and no one will save us but us. White America the author of Sin is going down and we are going with it if we do not seperate. Wednesday, July 30th 2008 at 9:51AM

Rondale Jordan DeVry University class of 2008 I feel you; but I believe truly afar in the future, our acomplishments will out weight our struggles; because it is those struggles or challenges that has made us so strong, today, as a people, as a nation from outside looking in to the world, as well as individually. rejoice, for together we all are witnessing a person of our truest nature achieving the highest politial (power) postion, in this country, and perhaps in the world. In every culture their in light, and their is shade; it is up to us where we dwell. Much love and peace to you rlj Monday, August 4th 2008 at 12:47AM

Mack W Jackson Dillard University class of 1981 Ever person's contribution to society is valid. Even Gangster Rap, if it causes others to want to do better. Whether, music uplifts you are brings you down is not dependent on the music itself, but who you were before you heard it. The Gangster Rappers themselves appear to be shrewd business people. Unlike the Black artists of the past, at least they are getting paid. As a kid, growing up in the deep south, I was berated for my like of classical music (Beethoven, Bach). But it was the only music that related me enough to allow me to concentrate of my studies. Wednesday, August 6th 2008 at 7:57PM

Sandra Glasco General Manager at YES4Clean Cleaning Service As most of your readers, I too agree that Black Culture is not rap or hip-hop. I also agree that Those two genre's have made an already negative stereotype worse. I will continue to read. Thank you for your Blogs Thursday, December 11th 2008 at 5:24PM
