A fool and his ramblings

Sometimes I am truly afraid for my daughter. The people in this world honestly scare me. For instance, check out this fool over at the The World According to Xenocrates. He decided that he could analyze the wide sweeping history of Black people and devise an answer that would solve our present day issues. Unfortunately, for what I assume to be a well intentioned gesture, his blog was completely short sighted and leaned dangerously close to being narcissistic. I will refrain from calling this brother a racist ( I hope you all will too); However, he demonstrated a sharp sense of arrogance, ignorance, & plain old bias towards black people. I say it was biased because it seemed evident that he pictures America to be the epitome of any nation to ever exist in the world and figures it to be the sole creation of Anglo-Saxon ingenuity.

Anyway I hope you all read his blog and take away from it the same thing I did. Not hate or animosity, but pity for his ignorance, a renewed determination to not only educate ourselves, but to network with each other and pool our collective resources to benefit our community, and lastly to instill in our children patience, love, humility, self respect, & and hunger for knowledge.

Peace, RgularJoe

PS – I want to really have a dialog with this guy because hopefully we can learn something from each other and walk away better men. This is exactly why I started this blog, because I noticed that the amount of mis-information & mis-understanding was reaching a fever pitch. Do you all think I am wasting my time?
