Please share one if you have it. Don't let society paint us as a race that is doomed, what I would like in this thread is the positive things we do. Things that Hollywood would make a movie, or a made for tv movie if the person was white. Or the media would plaster over your tv screen if the person was white.
Local news is fine, but I see many white local stories that are in other states.

We people who are darker than blue
Are we gonna stand around this town
And let what others say come true?
We're just good for nothing they all figure

A boyish, grown up, shiftless jigger
Now we can't hardly stand for that
Or is that really where it's at?.......Curtis Mayfield 'We People Who Aree Darker Than Blue"


Peace!

I am looking for participants in a study to share their experiences as former African American males served as ED/EBD/BD in the southeast. Participants ages 18-35 will be interviewed and given the opportunity to express their thoughts, feelings and impressions of their school years. If interested or for more information please contact me directly. Thanks, Cheryl

Thank you for the welcome. I have a question. I am a doctorate student in need of participants for my study. Is it allowable to post a request for study participants. If so, this is the post that would be uploaded:
