Day 2 Of the Maple Syrup Cleanse
This is going to be a rather short blog as i don't have much to say...
Today is the second day of my "Master Cleanse" of no solid food 'Diet"... I must admit its going great!!! I dont allow myself hungry so i'm never weak or dizzy or disoriented!! The "concoction" is actually not bad at all ***except i put too much pepper in the first batch hahaha*** but i haven't noticed any change in my energy level, but it seems my sense of smell has grown severly acute hahaha, i can smell food 2 miles away.... The day has been filled with good conversation so far with friends... I had a great conversation with my bro R Corbin Phillips about how crappy popular music has become and how much crappier it's probably going to get... you guys should check out his blog at http://corbinphillips.wordpress.com/ he's an amazing guy... anyway, i'm off to facebook and skype my life away... STAY STRONG FOLKS!!!!

Random Thoughts on Race,Racism and Idiocy in America PT 1
"Fore-Warning" this is going to be more like a collage of thoughts rather than a cohesive paragraph so try to be patient haha.
Ok here goes.... in my humble opinion any one who says racism no longer exist must be living under a rock or in extreme denial.... it's simply not as blatant as it was before but it undeniably still exists... I read an interesting article the other that said something to the effect that "racism" should no longer be considered a threat in this country as most "racists" aren't in powerful position in society, they're mainly confined to to minimum wage jobs, and the deep south, lol, "Gross Overstatement" but for the most part i agree with that article, but i digress lol. There's a huge Double Standard in the U.S in my opinion. Many times i catch my self thinking stuff that if a white person said it out loud i for one would think they were a racist, take for example i was telling my dad the other day that any place that has too many black people is not a place that i would want to frequent to often. We all know that if Bill O'Reily or even Larry King said anything REMOTELY close to that it would cause absolute outrage in this country. Why is it that we black ppl seem to exercise this "monopoly" on certain words and phrases but as soon as a white person says it we all scream racist??? Come to think of it why is it that even EVERY OTHER RACE except the caucasian race is allowed to say the N word (nigga, nigguh, or all its other variants lol). i believe that Black people are still very angry at the "attitudes" of their fellow caucasians.. lets take for example the white person who says that slavery was abolished long ago and that black people should get over it... now bear in mind i'm from the caribbean and only moved here 5 years ago... even i find that extremely insulting...why you ask??? well lets look at a baby, whatever activities that the parents do with the child within the first 10 years of their life will determine how that child learns for the rest of their life, apply this situation to slavery, these people were enslaved, abused and belittled for HUNDREDS of years so i find it extremely contemptuous that you expect the entire race to overcome this hurdle simply because YOU are inconvenienced by them/their behaviour... now to be completely honest i too share that view many times as well... i often catch my self thinking "Why wont these people even ATTEMPT to assimilate into "society.".... Any American who's ever travelled europe knows that they view americans as being barbaric, crude, loud,uncouth "basically they think of them as NIGGERS lol... and one of my white friends (sorry i have to say it like that) had an epiphany... almost EVERYTIME we went out to a restaurant to eat our servers would have that tiny squint of the eye, or the slightest crinkle of their nose when they realized we were americans and it usually went downhill from there. And she said to me that she FINALLY understood what black ppl talk about when they say that they were racially profiled. Undoubtedly that server had some unpleasant experiences with americans before but instead of being optimistic about our group he simply assumed that we were typical americans and though he was cordial and smiled everyone at the table agreed that his attitude was foul. In the same way in the U.S most americans refuse to believe that maybe not everyone sees everything form a race standpoint... i must admit sometimes i have some REALLY racist thoughts but then i think to myself i'm better than this... i don't have the time, energy, or patience to go around racially profiling everyone, i may be many things but IGNORANT will not be one of them...
I WILL PUT UP PART 2 LATER... I HAVE A BIOLOGY EXAM THAT I MUST ACE HAHAHA
TILL THEN ... KEEP FIGHTING THE FIGHT AGAINST IGNORANCE AND BIGOTRY
