Minority vs. Majority

When you look at a Black Man what do you see? Take a deep look into the soul of a Black Man and behind the pride and culture he is a man longing for acceptance, respect, and love from his family and peers. In society the Black Man is not has become divided in two. I like to call them "the haves and have-nots." The "have-nots" are the average thug, streetwalker, ignorant, disrespectful men you see as you live everyday and the medias best friend. Yet the "haves" are educated, groomed, humble, charismatic, and loving. Those are the Black Men that need tender, loving, care. It is time that we as human beings stop acting as if they don't exist. I'm tired of women saying "there aren't any good men out there" because they are alive and well. Although the media and life over shadow us with the images of hoodlums and deadbeats that lifestyle cannot depict the life of all Black Men. Things can only happen as long as you let it. So to my Black Men stand up and stand out more than ever. We know you are here. Minority Black Men are somewhat in the same predicament as homosexuals so to speak. We are both are educated, persistent, and professional. It is okay to want more for your life that does not include violence and drugs. Just because people say it does not make it true. The Black man is not to be ignored but admired. We know we all have mental hangups yet if we support one another more and left our pride aside we would come to understand that we are all the same no matter what our sexuality may be. Remember, everyone has a story and the past is only a stepping stone to a prosperous future. Black Men, wake up and now!
