Trying to deny history is a foolhardy act. Things are what they are. You can’t undo the past. Denying the past is dismissive and insensitive, and shows a lack of a desire to bring about healing. If America, and some of its citizens, continue to deny its history, things will not get better. Only deep examination, analysis, and implemented actions can bring about change. Saying, “racism doesn’t exist,” almost certainly ensures that it always will.

Think critically.

“Justice is a joy to the godly, but it causes dismay among evildoers.” -Proverbs 21:15

How realistic are we about reality?…Justice soon come; but when she gets here, make sure you’re not guilty by association.

In his memoir, Paul Mooney states that the world famous Apollo Theater is currently owned by Time Warner…I didn’t know that. I thought a conglomerate of members of the community owned the Apollo.

According to Paul Mooney, the role of Benjamin Buford “Bubba” Blue in Forrest Gump was offered to Dave Chappelle; however, he turned the offer for the part down…Interesting.
