Well since so called "black" people are roughly 12% of the American
population, and America's ranking in world education is getting lower
and lower looks like a WHOLE LOT of white people don't read either!
Please ... Did any of you hear of Sarah Palin or George Bush?
Someone shared this with me today and I wanted to share it with you.
Something for us to think about. Sometimes the truth is hard and cold
but it is still true. I am speechless!!
BLACK PEOPLE, PLEASE, READ & HEED. POIGNANT.
The sad thing about this article is that the essence of it is true.
The truth hurts.
I just hope this sets more Black people in motion towards making real
progress.
Chris Rock, a Black comedian, even joked that Blacks don't read.
Help prove them wrong! Read and pass on.
Please Note:
For those of you who heard it, this is the article Dee Lee was reading this
morning on a New York radio station. For those of you who didn't hear it,
this is very deep. This is a heavy piece and a Caucasian wrote it.

Dee Lee:
THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES. We can continue to reap profits from the Blacks
without the effort of physical slavery. Look at the current methods of
containment that
they use on themselves: IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS.
Their IGNORANCE is the primary weapon of containment. A great man once said,
"The best way to hide something from Black people is to put it in a
book." We now live in
the Information Age. They have gained the opportunity to read any book
on any subject
through the efforts of their fight for freedom, yet they refuse to
read. There are numerous
books readily available at Borders, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.com,
not to mention
their own Black Bookstores that provide solid blueprints to reach
economic equality
(which should have been their fight all along), but few read
consistently, if at all.
GREED is another powerful weapon of containment. Blacks, since the
abolition of slavery,
have had large amounts of money at their disposal. Last year they
spent 10 billion dollars
during Christmas, out of their 450 billion dollars in total yearly
income (2.22%).
Any of us can use them as our target market, for any business venture
we care to dream up,
no matter how outlandish, they will buy into it. Being primarily a
consumer people, they
function totally by greed. They continually want more, with little
thought for saving or investing.
They would rather buy some new sneaker than invest in starting a
business. Some even neglect
their children to have the latest Tommy or FUBU, And they still think
that having a Mercedes,
and a big house gives them "Status" or that they have achieved their Dream.
They are fools! The vast majority of their people are still in poverty
because their greed holds
them back from collectively making better communities.
With the help of BET, and the rest of their black media that often
broadcasts destructive
images into their own homes, we will continue to see huge profits like
those of Tommy and Nike.
(Tommy Hilfiger has even jeered them, saying he doesn't want their
money, and look at how the
fools spend more with him than ever before!). They'll continue to show
off to each other while
we build solid communities with the profits from our businesses that
we market to them.
SELFISHNESS, ingrained in their minds through slavery, is one of the
major ways we can
continue to contain them. One of their own, Dubois said that there was
an innate division in
their culture. A "Talented Tenth" he called it. He was correct in his
deduction that there are
segments of their culture that has achieved some "form" of success.
However, that segment missed the fullness of his work. They didn't
read that the "Talented Tenth"
was then responsible to aid The Non-Talented Ninety Percent in
achieving a better life. Instead, that
segment has created another class, a Buppie class that looks down on
their people or aids them in a
condescending manner.
They will never achieve what we have. Their selfishness does not allow
them to be able to work
together on any project or endeavor of substance. When they do get
together, theirselfishness lets
their egos get in the way of their goal. Their so-called help
organizations seem to only want to
promote their name without making any real change in their community.
They are content to sit in conferences and conventions in our hotels,
and talk about what they will do,
while they award plaques to the best speakers, not to the best doers.
Is there no end to their selfishness?
They steadfastly refuse to see that TOGETHER EACH ACHIEVES MORE (TEAM).
They do not understand that they are no better than each other because
of what they own, as a matter
of fact, most of those Buppies are but one or two pay checks away from
poverty. All of which is under
the control of our pens in our offices and our rooms.
Yes, we will continue to contain them as long as they refuse to re ad,
continue to buy anything they want,
and keep thinking they are "helping" their communities by paying dues
to organizations which do
little other than hold lavish conventions in our hotels. By the way,
don't worry about any of them
reading this letter, remember, 'THEY DON'T READ!!!!
(Prove them wrong. Please pass this on! After Reading it..)
