Thought Provocation - One Voice In The Crowd (...Down Here On The Ground)

About the Book

The Book is an appeal to all right-minded people against racism. Look at how sad it was to have written documents citing how one race is better than another and have it legalized. Some people do things better than others but that is true of any race. The (so-called) founding fathers of this (pre-existing) great nation were truly out of touch with reality when they took extreme deliberations to write such a racist document: the Declaration of Independence. They themselves, were fighting against the exact same thing, in atrocities, that they were subjecting others to; others being Black and native americans, then. The document govern this nation this very day. Those whom were chosen to govern were the one who control the wealth of the nation, that is still fact today. Wealth controls us. Americans who consider themselves “just” citizens are at fault because they feel they have no say in what the government does and the act can take place right in front of them. The lot of you see murder by racism and will not protest it. We all saw prominent men murder President John K. Kennedy in the most gruesome way and the nation did not scream bloody-murder in protest. We saw a man of peace (Dr. Martin L. King, Jr.) get shot down because he wanted peace for us all and we just did not get the numbers we needed to orchestrate a real protest. We did nothing, again. Contrary to what many think Malcolm X spoke very strongly about the things we were afraid to address back then are the things right in front of us now: a runaway government doing anything they damn well please because they do not seem to have a check-point. Can any of you remember, “…of the people, by the people, and for the people.”? There is the part of the constitution that tells us we have a right to speak up, if we have the balls to. We will never realize freedom until we earn it….And we don’t deserve anything we have not earned. Count it! Br. J. Abdul Iloabuba
