Tavis Smiley, Hosts, C-Span: Here are a few things from this month's
Black Think Tank
FACTS:
2. One of the best reasons to stop our use of the term African
American and say Black. A white person who was born in Africa, who moves to America is An African American and qualifies for financial aid, etc., but will get the jobs/pay privileges afforded to whites.
3. Look up the Slavery Law of 1665 (which stayed in effect until
1968) and the Maryland Doctrine o f Exclusion (1638): both laws state that blacks must be excluded from the benefits afforded whites, and that blacks must remain noncompetitive with whites, except in sports and entertainment.
This is "Good Food" for thought.

Hmmm..Is Travis Smiley the BEST person for the job?
My question is this why is it that I'm constantly being told by various people about the benefits of separating myself from my culture..and where is the example in other cultures where this has worked to the benefit of that culture?
19. You must read Powernomics by Claude Anderson. This is our blueprint to create wealth, not just have a job, but be a business owner, so you can hire people, be listed on the stock exchange, and develop businesses to meet our needs.
Actually, a Much better book would be Blueprint For Black Power- Amos Wilson.
