Just woke up from a nap and the wife has this on.
After clearing my head, George Fraser started speaking. The man brought it and the man hit it.
Fight for freedom --- achieved.
Fight for right to public access --- achieved.
Fight for economic strength --- yet to be achieved and must be a focus.
He said that we are the only people to go for political access but not economic access. (I hope I got that right).
I've heard him speak a few times before and he always says things I agree with.
More coming for as long as I'm in the house...
Update 1:
If there is a contract/conventent with Black folk, the first section should be what the responsibility of Blacks, ourselves, is.
Update 2:
Bishop Eddie Long -- just because I was invited to the house, it doesn't mean we have intercourse.
His response when Smiley stated that Bishop Long was invited to the White House.
Update 3:
Al Sharpton, again, has aired Democrat dirty laundry. It appears the Dems told him and others the last week before the election, that there was no money for travelling. They found out a week after the election, there was millions left in the bank.
Last update:
In the end, this means nothing if nothing comes out of it.
And if the Black populace isn't held accountable, nothing comes out of it.
And given the lame state of Black Democrats at the national level, nothing should be expected of them.
i would have told sharpton the same thing the democrats did. what?

Posted by: Cobb at February 26, 2005 09:16 PMAin't going to lie to ya, Fraser changed my life. I was just floored with how he just broke it down by generations. Even my man Minister Louis Farrakhan was looking at him like "Damn brother!"
Posted by: Solomon Mason at February 26, 2005 10:46 PMSo far only Fraser makes sense. Julianne Malveaux sounds like a retard.
Posted by: Cobb at February 28, 2005 09:09 PMFrom the segment I saw, he was powerful.
Farrakhan hit home with me when he said something along the lines of holding both Dems and Repubs accountable but being beholden to neither.
I didn't hear Malveaux, but from what I've heard before, I don't trust her as an economist.
I don't understand. I've been watching Farrakhan and high level members of the Nation since 1987. EVERY SPEECH THEY GIVE THAT REFERENCES POLITICS THEY MAKE THIS ARGUMENT.
When you say Farrakhan had you, had you never heard this argument before? Is this something new for you?
When you say Farrakhan had you, had you never heard this argument before? Is this something new for you?
If you mean me, yes I've heard it before. What hit home was that he said it when he said it. To me, it was obvious that the leanings were towards Democrats and it's silly to me for Blacks to be partisan at all.
No permanent friends only permanent interests.
Hey now. There's Farrakhan. That was energetic.
Here's the network. Where are the millions?

Farakhan and Fraser said everything that needed to be said, but I'm afraid that the Tavis cavalcade has not been contextualized...,
