In a perfecrt world!!!

I had a dream that Dr king mentored Obama before the oval office

Malcom X liberated the inner cities reconstructing our youth

Marcus Garvey formed powerful coalitions with Jay z, Oprah, Diddy, Tyler Perry, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan and spike lee

Then again Jordan is still engulfed within himself playing aboo for the Aladdin

America had fewer wars, less prisons, and equal education

Crack cocaine and heroin was never introduced in our communities

Alcohol remained abolished

Hope and the Lord’s words were the only remedies

There were no such thing as social class

Fat, skinny, ugly, dark, white, yellow, brown, and beauty were all together in one class

Everyone was equally represented

Welfare and food stamps were unheard of

Jobs were plentiful

Health care was free to all

There was no minimum wage

America was controlled by the people for the people

And blacks were considered people

Even though America’s founding fathers made it clear that

Blacks were not citizens and blacks held no right

That whites were to acknowledge

But today from the jungles to the ships to the fields

To obtaining a college education

We seek knowledge of our history

But we are lost in time

Only to be recreated as an inferior people

Can we rise above the social stigma?

Can we abandon the corners?

Take charge of our homes and communities
