Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, and especially the gentleman and boys, our days of mindless excuses as to why we can’t succeed as black men are over. We no longer can say that we can’t make it in this white world, because others around us, are. We longer can say we are begin suppressed by the white man, which YES, still continues, but others around us have found a way to succeed despite this. So it’s time for the drug dealers, wanna-be thugs, and those with no ambition to step up to the plate. Get off the corner and make your way to the boardroom. There is no longer an excuse that is valid as to why we as Black men can’t succeed.
I know what I might have say might strike a nerve with some people. It may even prompt a few phone calls and cuss out sessions. But like I said in the beginning, I am going to keep it real. And in doing so, we sometimes have to face things that are upsetting, even if they are about ourselves. I am not naïve to the fact that racism is still alive and well in America and across the world. I am not naïve to the fact that Blacks still can’t walk in some parts of New York City “Up-South” without being harassed or possibly killed. I am very aware of all of this. I remember riding my bike with my two brothers thru Carter Lake, IA, the same state that Barack Obama romped Hiliary Clinton in the Iowa caucus, and being yelled at, called N*****, and having rocks throw at us. But, still we can no longer make excuses for not treating our women like queens, not taking advantage of an educational system which some people have died for, and taking care of our community. Us, Black people, especially Black Men, have always been oppressed in some way, shape or form. However, there is something in our genes that stretches back to the slave days that allows us to overcome adversity, bounce back, stronger, and better. So Black men, put the down timbs for one sec, stop sagging for half a day, no excuses, buy a suit that fits, and lets storm the boardroom, this is Black Corporate takeover! Black men are back and here to stay!
