I think we need to turn that around fast! I for one have always used respectful words towards our brothers and sisters, and only as a young and wayward youngster did i ever think to disrespect another brother or sister, but i quickly changed that mentality around, especially after giving much thought to the fact that the VERY WORDS WE USE TO DEGRADE OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, THE WHITE MAN HAS USED ALWAYS TO DEGRADE US!!

Thats almost like we're enslaving our own people, and we have enough enslavement of the mind coming from white america as it is! We don't need to do anymore damage to ourselves!

Peace and Love

Brotha, you have an excellent point! But as an adolescent what should I do to inspire my brothas and sisthas? Because nobody whats to talk about this besides me and maybe 2 or 3 others. If I do talk about it just randomly to my homies, a lot will ignor me or reject me for bring it up.

let me see... what can a 15 yr old like you inspire your bros and sista? show an example by staying focus on good grades, and keep yourself in sports. show you penmanship in school and/or tutor someone that really needs your help.
