In thinking of the horrible situation that we appear to be in as a society with regards to the astonishing episodes of school violence and community violence, I thought it fitting to offer some sense of direction for our community based on my experiences, witness and training.

Could these cultural realities like the vibrations from the momentum of this information and melanin, spirit, blood, sweat and tears from our "Ancestors" be trying to connect with us from wiser instructions like this enclosed information during this work - The Race in Your Face?

This literary work is dedicated to genuine neighborly encouragement. Regardless to whatever your challenges may be or whatever you may be going through, I just humbly wanted to put together a different kind of workbook that would somehow attempt to inspire the next person to continue surviving and working on their selves in the highest level of harmony possible. So, to all of my classmates who may be extended or just going through it, here is ...

This book is dedicated to the reader grasping the thought of pursuing or further pursuing mastering their entire self as a practical kind of survival strategy. I have considered the thought that everybody is really just trying to make it.

In showing gratitude for the black experience and culture, it is only fitting that I try to reflect a few items that will compliment it especially during the upcoming season involving cultural expressions such as the celebrated efforts of Kwanzaa, the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday and Black History Month in February. Therefore, I have attempted to further grasp, connect and reconnect some degree of peace, harmony and health, growth and d...

This publication has attempted to speak to actually doing something about some of the foolish behavior that appear to be going on with how some individuals in our culture are disrespecting their selves and those who have tirelessly made sacrifices for them some time ago to be in the roles they find their selves in today. Just think, how would we even hear about our own Ancestors like Minister Ahmed Baba of the great learning center at Timbuktu...

Because we should be accountable to our Ancestors, I believe that we must somehow begin this phase of having a kind of dialogue that will favorably get this momentum for this concern out there for the best desired results in an attempt to show a little respect for our own. Perhaps there may be some out there who may not care enough about this issue, think that they have arrived on their own recognizance or that they are totally disconnected to...

This is a very humble effort to offer parents and other family members like an alternative strategy towards bringing about more favorable survival possibilities while facing today's very humbling times. It takes in consideration the atrocious statistics involving many of our family members that take a pathway that lands up as the top news story for a local, state or national media like an evening or nightly news television station that breaks ...

I further thought it fitting to assist the reader or willing participant with some recommended survival strategies that could possibly be used during their daily interactions with some of life's challenges. Therefore, rather than supplying an individual with negative thoughts or negative actions, I thought it equally beneficial to provide a kind of discussion or dialogue that could be utilized to possibly offer these needed survival strategies...

Perhaps there will be some who will say what in the world would someone want to call a book - the Black Behavior Workbook for. I would simply offer to their consideration for them to please consider all of the harsh challenges that those who have come before them had to endure in many scenarios as examples. During their actual daily life experiences, they maintained the shoulders that we stand on as foundation and further made it possible for ...

This book offers an original strategy for the reader to use in confronting everyday challenges. It further takes into consideration the very humbling concept of resurrection and how one's faith can be based on that focus and encourages the reader to further identify it with the concept of Melanin within the human body working in unison for their daily survival.

In the effort to make the best out of our daily life experiences, it is sometimes necessary to focus on that boost that we believe gives us the favorable will and encouragement to make the best out of our mission and purpose in life. This is what the "spunk in your space" is all about. It also involves not taking the space that we individually take up with our physical bodies, our mental capacity to think and maneuver, our economic and financi...

Sometimes I try to put myself in the shoes of those who have come before us and imagine what it was like with some of the challenges, disappointments, humiliations, torturing experiences and even the legendary feats that may have been achieved by them as I have attempted to further illustrate during this work. Then, I further think about how we embarrass ourselves as well as their blood, sweat and tears that helped to pave the way with many of...

It is like the thought of children thinking that the stork brought them in an egg rather than grasping the birth process and what had to occur between their mother and father for them to get here as a child. Likewise, the Black Ministers and Laity are connected to something and somebody also that has a great deal to do with their image. Certainly this image required many sacrifices, challenges, time and humility for those whose shoulders that ...

This work has been designed for the reader that is interested in pursuing a deeper truth in the plight, experiences and culture of Black people. It specifically will attempt to illustrate an alternative model to praise and worship from a more cultural black perspective emphasizing more respectability to the models of the earlier Ancestors as well as today's momentum. In that regard, it will offer a different cultural kind of expression not lim...

There must be a little room for improvement or room for other attempts to help make things be a little better. This in my humble opinion is one of those very efforts. So, now come and join me as we take that journey together in illustrating this very point in my new work entitled - Divinity: a Black "Calm - Mend - Tarry" or Commentary.

This work is about offering cultural strategies to helping youth and readers alike have alternatives to a misdirecting life of criminal activity and crime. It offers critical dialogue based on the commentary of Vinson Ballard. He has a B.S. and M.S. in Criminal Justice and eulogized a brother that was a murder victim and is a former collegiate and professional athlete and minister.

In thinking of the most appropriate way to start off what is considered a new year, I thought it fitting to speak words as best that I could that could be beneficial to our individual space individually and collectively. In many cultures, the year actually consists of thirteen months prior to our current Gregorian calendar system of the twelve month calendar as previously mentioned. It, further, led me to take in consideration our Ancestors wh...

Sometimes in the midst of putting in a good day's work towards completing a task and facing the survival of life's daily struggles, it can become visibly challenging to share some of these experiences in a genuine effort to welcome some degree of healing and comfort to one's continuation. This can further be pursued sometimes through solely following one's convictions and grasping the thanksgiving in their realities with honor to bring about s...

In thinking of the many things that an individual could leave when humbly moving on to the other side or facing death, another aspect of momentum grabs that particular reality and further encourages one succumbed by that space, time and moment to share something with others that could be possibly "beneficial" to their survival strategy before that actual last breath is taken on this side of life itself. In my own walk, I have witnessed this an...
