What's Next? Operation Hood Freedom
Last night, I dreamt that George Bush sent in the
troops to liberate tha hood. Lines of women and
children cheered as soldiers threw bootlegged 50 cent
CDs into the crowd. I was cheering, myself until I
was thrown in the back of the paddy wagon with the
rest of the Brothas

great War on Terror will go down, there is a great
possibility that it could take place on the streets of
LA instead of the streets of some foreign land.
approval rating, how much more readily can Black men
in the so called inner cities be bombed when the
masses of people have been duped into believing that
they are all gangstas, thugs, and gold toothed drug
dealers. I havent read the opinion polls this morning
but the last time that I checked, the approval rating
for Drug Dealin Darrell wasnt very high. And who
will lead the protest to stop the attack on tha hood?
Mr. Johnson down the street who lost his only son in a
drive by ,last week or Ms. Lucille who is scared to
come outside after dark because of drug deals going
down on her front steps?
rounded up and sent to concentration camps was just
something that Mr. Willie, the neighborhood barber and
part time Conspiracy Theorist would mumble about while
giving me my Saturday morning haircut, in post 9/11
America this theory has taken on a tone of morbid
seriousness.
gangs in with terrorism. There is even a Street Gang
Terrorism Prevention Act pending in North Carolina as
well as an effort to get suspected gang members names
loaded into a computerized data bank. So, when Lil
Pookie who decides to Crip Walk at age 12, applies
for college at age 18, along with his application for
admittance will be a mug shot with 7th Street
Murdera/Suspected Terrorist written under it. Or when
Kenneth Jackson decides to leave the gang stuff in the
past and get a real job , the perspective employer
wont see a father of 3 who hasnt even had a parking
ticket in 5 years but he will see Killa Boogie, who at
age 15 was a member of the notorious West Street Mob.
So the cycle of poverty, hopelessness and depression
perpetuates itself over and over again.
comes (ie the final solution to deal with Black men)
and I am chillin on the block in my Afrocentric,
red, black and green gear next to a Brotha dressed in
all blue; are the cops really going to take the time
to find out which one of us is involved in a
criminal gang ? And since anyone who stands against
the status quo can be considered a criminal will it
even make a difference if they did?
Unfortunately, many Black folks do not realize the
seriousness of the times in which we live. So it is
easier to turn our condition into a joke, gag or bonus
track on a Hip Hop CD.
To borrow from the Sista who slapped the taste out of
my mouth in 3rd grade for pulling her pony tail.
Sometimes, we just play too darn much!
turning on Comic View and hearing a comedian say, I
was ridin down Crenshaw , today and I saw 5 Brothas
get blown away by a tank. Ha! Ha! Ha!
. It is sad
that many of us will still be laughing while they are
putting pad locks on the doors to our cells.
bangers on the right and agents of White Supremacy on
the left. Having to choose between being victimized by
the problem (drugs, black on black crime etc) or
annihilated by the solution (the preservation of
White Supremacy by any means necessary). The catch 22
facing the Afrikan community is how do we make our
communities safe without further demonizing the image
of Black men and aiding and abetting a racist program
but at the same time not condoning the anti-Afrikan
behavior that has our children scared to walk the
streets in broad day light.
respect of person and is the same today as it was
yesterday. Yes, Mr. Officer/Politician/Right wing
Conservative talk show host, I will accept
responsibility for the number of Black men in jail/
out of wedlock births/Black on Black Crime/the kid who
took your lunch money in high school as long as you
admit to the historical root causes that have
contributed and are still contributing to such
behavior as well as how you have done every crime
imaginable to the nonwhite people of the planet.
Spiritual solution to the problems facing Afrikans in
America. A solution that will be of Afrikan people, by
Afrikan people and for Afrikan people because it will
be done for the love of Afrikan people ! Only by doing
this can we counter the diabolical plan to destroy the
Afrikan family, starting with the Black man.
The Hip Hop group Goodie MOB once rapped that the New
World plan leaves the planet without the Black man. I
pray for all our sakes that they are wrong.
