*THROWBACK EDITION* -BONUS READ- BLACK HISSSTRY








We remember the marches and boycotts of the 60's and how our ancestors fought for our rights as individuals. 
We wish black history was embedded in the minds of today's urban youth.
We often forget about the struggles of the past, which as a result leads to failure of the present due to no sense of a cultured path. 
We ask for forgiveness from the leaders of the past, as we strive for another black unity that will last. 
You said you would give us equality, but you never gave. 
You wanted us to "go back to Africa" so why did you bring us here and make us your slave? 
You tried to tighten our shackles, but we took them off. 
You failed to see our true potential, but we did and now we are better off.
