Get a copy of "Malcom X a Man and his Message by Dr. John Henric Clarke
In this here you will find the charter of the organization of Afro American Unity that stresses some of the points that Jaboom has mentioned, an more then just a charter lays out a plan for our survival.
Also the late Chancellor Williams, in his "Destruction of Black Civilizations"
in the final chapters lays out a more delineated and defined plan and strategy,
Also Black Power by Amos Wilson

SCREW THESE DEVILS HERE AND LETS DO EVERYTHING WE NEED FOR OURSELVES!!!!

Like courts...Native Americans have their own court system and trail their own cases involving crime.

Like money...We can come up with a type of money that can only be spent in the black community.

Like education...We should get our own teachers to teach our children what it is they must learn about themselves to gain pride in who they are.

Like crime...We should just come together and talk....

We just saw a back and forth thing that was just unneeded. We as a people want the same things.........so why not just work together instead of against each other to get what it is that we need to survive. Because the more split we are the easier it is for us to keep being beaten down by the rest of the world.

God bless you brother, hopefully we can remove the chains from the minds of our youth so that they can embrace your life sustaining ideas and goals for our collective future.
(If I am not mistaken, check Tony Martin's books on Marcus Garvey, I think he was trying to have a black only network currency back then, GREAT POINT, and that may be the key to our survival with the way this here dollar is sinking and what not
Thank you!!!!!!!!

Complete separation because long as our schools are controlled by the state we can only teach a certain way. That is the key because if we properly educate our children everything else will fall into place, eventually.
One thing I do is make free books available whenever possible. I have posted a link here(I think), no one took my up on it, I'll re-post it. Certainly not really all that helpful but if we can make one more person aware we've done something.

Please repost that link,

THE RIGHT BOOK CAN SAVE A CHILD'S LIFE
Thank you,
and maybe we all should think about doing the same on our block,
for the kids and the young fellers on the corner, with some of this here holiday money we wil be spending.
