We live in an age in which trending
topics discussed over social media birth many expert "tell it alls."
Information is readily available to the masses. Situations that use to call for people to actually come together are now seemingly being remedied by tons of posts, shares, and comments by joe shmoes on social media sites.
When it comes to issues in the community....
Facebook is definitely not the medium that is going to produce a sudden revolution among any given people. It just gives ANY and EVERYone a platform to express their feelings at the moment. If you want to know how to fix the issues plaguing melanated people then look at the history of melanated people. You'd have to have a real book(not Facebook) for that. Where do you find these books? Well, when the student is ready then the teacher will appear. The information is available in your own back yard. I was given 'The Miseducation of the Negro', 'The Isis Papers,' etc when I was 17 yrs old still residing in my home town(SHOUT OUT TO JAKE, OWNER OF JAKE'S BARBERSHOP. )Once you learn the history then you may start to understand how we lost the ability to understand our own nature. You will see what weapons and systems of weaponry were used to help place us in the position in which we could not look into our brothers and sisters and see ourselves.
Until our youth can see that to hurt their planet, their fellow man or woman is to also hurt themselves there cannot be growth and there cannot be peace. The problem remains that the institutions that we have subscribed to are not teaching the principles needed to progress in this society, and with that my friends, they have failed us.
