Keep up the good work. I am glad that African Americans like yourself are standing up for what is right. As a Native American, I understand that we cannot depend on the federal government for our survival. Hard work, love of God, and doing what is right always make a difference. Thank you!!

I agree. Depending on the Federal Government causes one to lose their spirit and their free will. A different form of slavery.
I would love to see a place where people (African Americans) like me who left the GOP because of its present policies enter the discussion on your blog. I will not say keep up the good work because I disagree with it (LOL) but do your thing. ClarenceWhoMovedLeft will be here.
I am very confused.. I know ederly Black people that refuse to be called African Americans.. in fact they get very pissed off if someone says it… I was informed they are Americans.. they might be Black, but they are Americans.. I respect their view very much… In my 25 years of law enforcement I refuse to use titles with color… I like Bill Cosby’s philosophy and perspective on the subject… what do you think???
Bill Cosby is very wise on this topic, I just wish that he would’ve extended that to his vote for the president. His support for Barack Obama is illogical in light of his personal beliefs.
I served 20 years in the military, I often found it hysterically hypocritical that while together over seas and out in public, we would often get asked where are we from or nationality, in which the reply “American” was the norm….but as soon as we are back home, in the U.S, we would hear or fall victim to the same polarizing, segregating verbiage having to be associated by terms like African American, Italian American, Irish American. How can it be when outside our boarders of comfort, we are simply Americans and not one when we are together home….?
