You know why we have not seen much progress? Do you know why you are fed up with the so-called movement? Do you understand why disparities in healthcare, education, and home ownership exist? What about the disparity in the rate of incarceration? I'm sure you'll agree: the answer is simple.
Reparations means empowering New Leadership. Those who claim to speak for us have lost touch. They have clung to their power for their own benefit and to the community's detriment. They refuse to "pass the torch." So, now we must snatch that torch.
Marcus Garvey once said, "you are not out-numbered only out-organized." You have the power to organize. And, on our Google Group you will find the tools. View them, download them, improve them...make them yours. By doing so, you start to embody what Reparations means.
Empowering New Leadership means capitalizing on current and emerging technologies. Through our Google and facebook Groups and the LinkedIn Network, there are plenty of opportunities for you to connect with others who share your passion for the community. We will even have a conference call this coming Monday (4/21/08) at 9pm EST, on Talkshoe.com, where we will discuss further ways for you to take charge.
Reparations means empowering New Leadership. And, many of you reading this have been looking for ways to become more involved. Many of us have been waiting for this moment. Your dreams of true progress for the Global Black Community no longer need to be deferred.
We are waiting on you. Come and Get Your Reparations!
