Black's History
The first American Colony of Virgina imported Africans as slaves in 1619.
In the earlier years of Fredrick Douglass, while he was under the enslavement of the particularly brutal Mr.Covey where he was beaten almost everyday, Fredrick Douglass fights back; and after a two hour struggle against Covey and another man, Douglass stands victorious, and Mr. Covey never fucked with Fredrick Douglass again.
Dred Scott, Harriet Tubman, William Still, Sojourner Truth, John Brown, and yes even Nate Turner.
In 1963, Malcolm X started collaborating with Alex Haley on The Autobiography of Malcolm X. In 1964, he told Haley, "If I'm alive when this book comes out, it will be a miracle."
Dr.Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream" speech is is regarded, along with Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and Franklin D. Roosevelt's Infamy Speech, as one of the finest speeches in the history of American oratory.
Medgar Evers, Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture), H. Rap Brown, Fred Hampton, Bobby Seale, and tragically Huey P. Newton.
Growing up in the late 80's and early 90's a since of Black Pride had come and gone through Hip Hop, but gave way to commercialism, but still a few sparks remain.
Today, President Obama is considering and will most likely pass a budget cut proposal that will target the working poor (which is the new middle class)and students...I still support Barack Obama.
Our struggle continues...because it doesn't know how to stop.

Say, Say, Say....
Remix Mash up from MJ Fela' THE KING MEETS THE PRESIDENT IN AFRICA (Michael Jackson vs Fela Kuti) released for free download in June of 2010 @http://mjfela.com. You should get it, it's really dope!
FUN FACT: Taken from Wikipedia
"Jackson stayed at the home of McCartney and his wife Linda during the recording sessions, and became friends with both.[6] While at the dining table one evening, Paul McCartney brought out a booklet that displayed all of the songs to which he owned the publishing rights. "This is the way to make big money", the musician informed Jackson. "Every time someone records one of these songs, I get paid. Every time someone plays these songs on the radio, or in live performances, I get paid." McCartney's words influenced Jackson's later purchase of the Northern Songs music catalogue in 1985"...Equals Jackson making who knows how much off that Beatles catalog.
