Yo Call me an Idiot. Everything doesnt have to be about race. Look paat color for once in your life, when the tusami hit, i doubt there was a Topic on it, life just simply went on. but now since it hits close to home you are feeling the effects of it. The hurrucaine doesnt spare you because of the color of your skin.  Get that way of thinking out of your minds, stop being ensalved by your minds, It will only be a race issue  if you make it one, I guess as you go along and you see a white family, you wont help them?, We call white people racsist but we are equally the same towards them. I am telling you, Its not even the white person trying to keep Af americans down.....Most Black people would rather see someone else suceeed. We all need a New way of thinking. Just like mase said. RENEW YOUR MINDS. DONT LET YOUR WAY OF THINKING INDER YOUR PROGRESS..

All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change you. The only thing blame does is to keep the focus off you when you are looking for external reasons to explain your unhappiness or frustration. You may succeed in making another feel guilty about something by blaming him, but you won't succeed in changing whatever it is about you that is making you unhappy."
Wayne Dyer.

Stay Positive.

Hold on you mean to tell me bush was with these people as they drowned and starved to death why the hell would u send people over there with guns and tanks to kill looters these people are hungry and they are about to die why kill a looter if the strore is already destroyed by the water. Why should it take 4 days to help people 4 days come on where is your head at. But i bet u if a diaster happened in texas bush would be there the same day it happened.

And did u forget that bush flew by the devestation on the 3rd day and kept on moving then decided the day after that he wants to visit.

Well we have heard both sides and I have to say that I am proud of the American Red Cross. They really did help with the hot meals and such. I saw whites and Blacks help them in Texas.

However, Bush was slow and he admitted this himself, so phily you are on your own with defending him. He didn't even defend himself. He was slow and even some of his supporters said he was too. I have to tell you brother please try to support your own people before you defend other people. They need people on the other side of the country to understand what happened and support them. No one has a slave mentality, they just see the truth for what it is. The people were neglected, and even some white people say the same thing.

It very difficult to explain what all I saw at the Dallas Convention center, but I can tell you from first hand experience, the majority of the victoms of Katrina, will tell you the govenment did not respond quick enough, black or white. So I can't see defending Bush when he did something to hurt YOUR people. It's like defending a system of opression and making excuses for it. How can anyone do that and sleep good at night.

The victoms have recieved help but they are still hurting from the whole thing. I want to thank all who helped.

Look to the skies and keep your eyes on the prize! I been through Hell but, STILL I RISE!
