Jessie Jackson's Negative Obama Comments Exemplifies "Crabs In A Barrel."
The fact that Obama talked about personal responsibility, most recently when it comes to our responsibility as Black men to our children, I believe, has nothing to do with talking down to us, as Jackson insinuates. It has everything to do with our survial as a people. As men, we must be the leaders and the backbone of our families. Raising children is not about what we say, its all about what we do. Racism has nothing to do with the personal relationhips a Black father has with his children. The greater conversation our Black churches should be having is what we can do to change our spending patterns as a people with the companies and products we support, to begin to empower ourselves. The goal of this site is to be a distributor of empowering information that will change the future of Black people in particular and humanity in general. In all due respect, Rev. Jackson, we thank you for the work you have done, but it truly is time for a change. Obama is not running as 'The Black President,' he's running as President of the United States. Our future depends on it.
