Time Flies By
When i was young, i was always nervous about going on to the next step, middle school then high school then finally college. I was always afraid of making friends, fitting in, scared of being bullied. I got bullied left and right in middle school, but it went away in high school and my bullies became my friends, ironic isnt it?
Middle school came, then high school came. Bam Its junior year. Gotta...

06-09 Measure OO Campaign
Back in 06, I became a YLO at AYPAL. That year was a very significant year. It was my first year of learning about the movement and getting involved. After months of surveying and discussions, The interns and staff at that time decided to do something about Violence.
800 Surveys were collected from Oakland youth in High School asking them what issues they faced most in their communities....
Ignorance? Or not?
What is ignorance? What is ignorant?
What do i call someone that don’t see things through my eyes?
What do i call someone that doesn’t agree with my views?
What do i call someone that conflicts with my views and disagrees?
Do i call that person ignorant because they don’t see things the way i see them?
If so, then they could call me ignorant because i don’t see things...
Sometimes
You meet individuals or groups of people who doesn’t think the way you do. Then you think they’re dumb and ignorant. However if you think again, they probably never got the chance to learn what you learned or have seen what you seen. Or maybe they have, but point the causes to somewhere else. My friend committed suicide in January 09 after my birthday, 3-4 months before that a friend...
My Response to someone challenging the idea of...
Okay, If White Supremacy didn’t exist then what system exists now? Yes we are challenge white supremacy in many ways like Chrystals example. However look at it like this. Who is the majority in congress? Who are the decision makers? Who own…s the banks in America? Who owns the corporations that went overseas for cheap labor (SWEATSHOPS) and left America with less jobs? - Why is...
White People
I don’t think AYPAL teaches us to hate WHITE people…..i think AYPAL teaches us to be consciously aware of the system set in place to keep us people of color down. You know systems like White Supremacy and things like WHite Privilege. I don’t think AYPAL teaches us to hate white people at all. We just happen to hate on white people a lot thats all.
So i ask,
who is the CEOs of...

Friends
Friends are Friends. Then there’s your “brothers, sisters, and best friends”. Then there’s your mob. You’re hood mob, your close mob, your gaming mob, and your school mob, and all that. Then there’s your friends with that special bond like the insiders and special hand shakes.
For me, it ain’t about me finding out who my TRUE and REAL friends are, its...

Earlier
There was a horrible horrible accident on lincoln going up to skyline. i hope everyone is okay.
But i just gotta say some, WHY was there like FIFTY police cars, blocking up the whole rooad, and WHY was there TEN fire trucks responding to the emergency?! Was it because they was white? Was it because it was in the HILLS where the rich lives?!?
An accident down here would take hours to get cleaned...
