Let's Celebrate

Let’s celebrate.  This is a shout out to Blacks in America.  Let’s celebrate.  Let’s celebrate history.  Let’s remember our legends.  Let’s discuss how much “we have overcome,” and how much we have achieved and haven’t achieved.

Let’s talk about the heroes who dedicated their lives for CHANGE in America, ergo HISTORY.  Let’s talk about Black pride, Sojourner’s Truth and Harriet Tubman’s Mission, Frederick Douglass’ Resolve, Chisholm’s Zeal, Rosa’s Courage, Martin’s Dream, and President Obama’s Promise. Let’s talk about La Amistad and the strong will of our African ancestors.

Let’s start this February to have family nights, dinner parties and intimate social networking parties with Black History themes. Heck, let’s pray.  Let’s call on the spirits of our leaders and let’s listen for a response. Let’s ask for help. Let’s ask for wisdom and guidance. Let’s ask them “How?” Let’s ask them how to stop Black on Black crime, gun violence, drugs and “thuggism.” Then, let’s “Stop, Look, and Listen.” 

Let’s do this ever February and beyond. Miraculously, the Universe will identify another hero with a Dream… and a plan.
