Just to get this out of my head so it's not rattling around all day, there is an article flying around from Psychology Today(in this case is was yesterday ;) but I digress) piling on black women and while I know my sisters are rightly enraged, I'm hoping it doesn't burn out too fast because this is just the begininng. See that article, it was a job application. Wait, a job application? Yup see in hard economic times(for the masses, not the mighty) while it would be more beneficial to make things better for the masses so that all could live better it's far cheaper and expedient to create or recycle some mythical boogie who's name and face everybody knows(or vaguely remembers) so that when you bring it up poor memory but "not wanting to seem uninformed" will buttress your non existent argument. Somebody is going to have to give those arguments some validity so they can't just be chalked up to hatred and bigotry, it always sounds more official when a learned person chimes in and agrees with your that or somebody who likes like who you are talking about in a less than polite manner.
People are hurting right now and for many it isn't their fault it's just that they got caught up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Maybe they did miss a few signs that could have helped them prepare a little bit better but they don't want to hear that, they want to know who to blame. They want to know who's fault it is they can't feed their families, and why all this time they put it "doing it the right way" isn't being rewarded like they had been hearing about since they were a little kid in school. And of course you already had this GREAT patsy lined up too but all the sudden out of no where he opened his shirt and exposed that "S" on his chest and your reeling.
This is my more mature blog. By mature I mean I'm going to follow some rules and I'm going to try and do more then take the easy way out. No cursing I gotta find a different way to say it and still emphatically get my point across
