Back in Brooklyn Kid!

I couldnt stay away from new york for long.

There will always be a special place in my heart for Harlem but i love, love LOVE Brooklyn.

All you see is black people downtown.

Not too many hispanics and whites.

Mainly Blacks!

Ive decided that im moving here for good.

Im staying in a hotel for now but eventually i want to get a house out here, or even rent a storefront and sell my herbal products that way and give lectures there.

Ive already gotten customers here so i see alot of potential.

This is the most confident ive ever felt about my future.

I cant beleive im actually starting to grow out of my Babyboy tendencies lol.

Maybe.

Been a long time

Nothing really to report.

Herbal business is coming along.

Helping some of my family members with their health.

Been doing some landscaping work too.

I found out that i love growing flowers.

Ill post a picture of my work so you can see how beautiful my flowers are.

I never knew i had that side to me.

Still looking for somebody i can settle down with but i havent been trying as much as i should lately.

Its all good.

Helping my nephew to mature into manhood.

I think my addiction to alcohol is increasing because sometimes its hard go a day sometimes without drinking.

Im a mess but ill get better eventually.

All this snow is getting on my damn nerves!

I might be in a time warp but i thought i lived in baltimore not wisconsin.

All this damn snow is making me heated!

In baltimore, maryland we've had the hardest snow storm we've had probably since the ice age.

I cant move in the house.

Im staying with my moms now.

Everything she says gets on my nerves.

I whipped my little nephews ass the other day for stealing some klondike bars the other day.

Im losing my freakin mind man, and its because of all this freakin snow.

This is why we need more blow torches in the black community.

I hate the color white.

I hate bleached white flour, white sugar, white snow and most of all white people lol.

Sidebar: There are too many cracker ass crackers moving into the hood trying to be cool with black people.

One came up to me today and said "whats up my brother?"

I wanted slap dog shit out his clammy white ass.

Im not like other "safe negros" out there.

Mutha fucker im like Brandy and Sarah jessica Parker I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER MUTHA FUCKA!

And every other summer before that in this nation.

Do me a favor people.

This is black history so i want you to do some self discovery.

Go to the library (damn, whats that?) and look up this book called "the cartoon history of the united states" and see what these peckerwoods being doing to us since time immorial.

I like this book because its written like a big comic book.

You see the images of the horrible things they used to do to us and we all know images speak a thousand words.

People you need to study slavery from the white mans perspective to really get a feel for how eveil these people were (and a glimpse of the evil that others outside this country feel at this present time).

When the honorable Elijah Muhammad said that all white men were the devil, hewasnt jivin.

This is the stuff they pray you never find out.

How this guy made a billion dollars in 5 years.

Whenever you seek to do something always listen to an expert.

How does the media present us?

Black people have always been troublesome in the sense of how they should be projected on TV.

One thing i've learned pertaining to the images of blacks in america is that they aren't static.

Images of blacks change according to the needs this society has for them.

Lets start with slavery.

In slavery there was a need of this government to show blacks as "happy slaves" so that they wouldnt have any guilt in enslaving blacks.

So you saw flyers and advertisements with blacks smiling and enjoying their existence in slavery.

They horrible things that were done to slaves wasnt shown as much as these happy images.

And all of this was done to soothe white guilt for what they were doing to their fellow human beings.

When blacks were freed the government portrayed them in another light.

This white supremacist government didnt want to give blacks all of the rights and resources that were owed to them.

They couldnt take seeing large numbers of educated, business owning blacks because it opened up the possibilty that these people were actually equal to them so they portrayed blacks in the mainstream media as savages, incapable of adjusting to freedom and incapable of governing themselves.

This portrayal was created to justify the terrorization of blacks on so many levels in this country, because if they are savages incapable of controling their primitive nature then they have to be controlled and dominated by the ruling society right.

And these portrayal continued all through the early 1900's to around the mid to late 1960's.

Then the civil rights struggle hit and civil rights leaders started to plea to the broadcasters to show more "positive" images of blacks.

So the media started to portray blacks being integrated, living with and being friends with white people.

They did this to say to white america, "they are just like us" so that white america wouldnt be so hostile to their integration.

These images are still carried out today.

Even though there is still television programing that present us as savages and barbarians, the vast majority of media images show us in a "glowing light" that is, just like whites but only colored.

They have also depicted us as being just like them so that these sell out black people with inculcated white values could be considered normal while the vast majority of struggling blacks were considered abnormal and deviant.

Basically saying we shouldnt try to help other blacks who are continuously held back by the government.

Many of us dont even think we are held back because of the pervasiveness of the successful images on television.

We have been totally brainwashed and many people dont see it yet because they have never been taught how to analyze the media.

Im gonna start writing more posts about this issue.

Stay tuned.

Im never watching espn again!

do yourself a favor and stop listening and viewing shows and people who insult you

Keep those affirmations in your back pocket.

I've really been sticking to my plans lately because I keep positive affrimations in my back pocket to look at whenever i need a reminder of what my goals are in life.

Here are some affirmations I've jotted down for myself.

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO SACRIFICE IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL?

YOUR MAIN PROBLEM IS YOU WANT SOMETHING FOR NOTHING

GIVE A DEADLINE FOR EVERYTHING

ONLY FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WANT

IF YOU GIVE YOUR BODY THE PROPER NUTRITION YOU WONT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS AND YOU WILL REACH YOUR FULL POTENTIAL

YOU CANT SOLVE PROBLEMS BY USING THE SAME THINKING THAT CREATED THEM

If you want to change some unwanted aspect of your life you have to create and constantly review aspirations that inspire yout ot do just that.

John Gray said it takes the average person 200 times reviewing something before they actually get it.

What the heck are you doing looking at this post.

You have a lot of work to do.

Here's looking at you kid!

Well, one of my resolutions this year is im not going to be scared to show my face on my own blog anymore.

I know im not the handsomest brother in the world but hey at least im a man, im single and I dont have any kids lol (even though i love children and wouldnt mind having some right now but thats not the point).

The point is in order for me to be successful in life i have to come out of my shell, stop acting like a pussy and learn how to appropriately deal with other people.

This is the real James Tubman love it or leave it, and expect more pictures and youtube recordings in the future.

Hope everybody's new year is going well so far.

Peace!
