Was Imus Wrong ?? Should We Even Care ??
Was Imus wrong ? That`s the big question my point of view is why should that matter ? as a race of black people we should stay focus on what (really) matters. how can we continue to let something so small grow into something big ?there are so many other issues that should be looked upon. we have children in the ghettos selling drugs , commiting crimes, teen mothers , a high rate of school dropouts , low income families .Now who is to blame for that ? I know because i came from the ghetto ("hood") I have been called the n-word by my own people more than the white man. We continue to find faults in other people instead of ourselves, it`s time to stop the maddness!!! If we are to make this (change) work , we should let the "little" things go and look towards a better and brighter furture . I`ve became a reverend to escape the struggles of my past (ghetto lifestyle) My wife and i started a foundation of hope to help the children / families in our community as well as across the world .This is the type of positive influence we need to provide to our children thank you very much Rev .
