How do we move from premise, to promise, to the pragmatism of achieving-not just a unified front, but-a unified purpose? Given what we know to be underlining motives and agendas that will not be forsaken for the purpose of so-called, "black unity," how do African Americans create a "unity paradigm" that works for the highly stratified "black diaspora?" I mean, it's time for us to move pass ALL THE TALK ! .
all talk and no walk sounds like some of the members of a dead social network NOW ITS SHOTS FIRED < ALL IN THE NAME OF FUN ! but on the real lets kick it with the knowledge of black unity ! it's time for us to move pass the rhetoric.
Case in point, Blacks are more divided now than at any point in their history. There are more strands of religious beliefs (non-demominationalism being the fastest growing of organized religion), the point being that Blacks can't agree on the best way to reach God, much less serve God. African American political beliefs are just as twisted. Blacks are still in the pockets of the Democratic Party, and are getting literally nothing (beyond individual concessions) in return, while its becoming more and more obvious that Blacks don't even believe what democrats say they believe anymore (partly, because the Democratic Party doesn't know what it believes). Blacks are more socially conservative than they've ever been, splitting on abortion, same s*x marriage, and even the death penalty ! WTH
