It is the Twenty First Century, the modern era, a time period that humankind should be the most advanced than we have ever been before, sadly this is untrue. Today the Negro race is in more danger than it was during the times of slavery. We, the Negroes, have not only been the backbone of the advancement of the US, but all western nations, yet we are still in bondage; physically, psychologically, and spiritually. We have lost ourselves and our Godhood, now we and the rest of the world looks at us as if we are still the slaves that we have been for the past 500 years. The Negro has become the target of mass incarceration, mental warfare, genocide, and depraved of a real education. The Negro has become so broken, he knows only know to be the cause of his own self-destruction, due to the influence of the media.

In today's world, how many modern songs about Negro women are made without degrading the mother of creation? The music that the youth listens to the most, is what influences their minds the most. Today, it is the “artist” that are raising the youth, and whom the youth look up to, if a popular male “musician” sings or raps about how he's having sex with “h*es” and shooting up a “n*gga” on the block, that is what all the black male youth will want to do. Speaking from my personal experiences in high school and college, almost everywhere on campus where there is music playing, the music promotes the degradation of the Negro. We now live in a society where the Negro wants to degrade is his sister, kill his brother, and push drugs through his community.

Another degradation that has been plagued up the Negro is the fact that he now idolize those that have become a slave to the prison system. The Negro now boasts about having his mugshot plastered across the various news networks. Ironically the Negro feels that harming his own gives him respect, and dignity. By obtaining a criminal record, the Negro puts his race on hold with development, both socially and economically. He can no longer help raise his family, nor can he put money into his community, the Negro rather have meaningless social status amongst his peers than permanently build up his society.

The Negro is suffering, and he is now the cause of his own self-destruction. How can we expect others to respect us and build us up, if we ourselves are currently the cause of our demise? In order to get back to our Godhood, we must abandon the mental illness of seeing our oppression as something positive

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
