On January 12, 2012, bloggers, journalist, students, professors, some of DC’s most influential people, 7 panelist, and a moderator took part in one of the most important conversations in 2012, thus far. Broadcasting live on C-SPAN, the internet, and a few radio stations, Americans got the opportunity to listen in first-hand on the opinion on how poverty in America can be reduced, if not removed. Tavis Smiley, as moderator of this great event at George Washington University, asked some of the questions that has been hovering over most Americans heads.

The Obama administration finally made it public that they have passed the fucked up bill and that we are NOW under MARTIAL LAW! That means the government can bust in yo shit, kidnap you for whatever reason and do whatever they want to you without giving you trial nor providing reason for your imprisonment. Hope you Greedmont Guerillas will be ready when the time to rage against the machine comes.

The basic interaction between society and our peers do not match how we are taught to react, and interact, with the world around us. For example, with Christianity being strong and preferred in America, the selling of sex isn’t decreasing with the increasing support of Christianity’s idea of good values and morals. I have a hard time understanding true forgiveness. In Christianity, you are told God will forgive you for your sins, if you repent.
Once a “sin” is completed, I believe it is hard to show true remorse without actions. I believe a person’s actions, plus their new found level of understanding, or awareness, should be fairly obvious. The irony of transformation, and rebirth, is that if the change is too obvious, some of your observers may remain skeptical. These are the type of contradictions that we live with daily. (more…)

So today I was on my way to Fabolous’ crib to shoot an interview when I crossed through Times Square to find a group of Egyptian-Americans protesting President Mubarak and Cairo unrest in Times Square. Shocked, I instantly took it as a sign because our Greedmont TV staff is currently raising money so we can head to Egypt document the situation out there. FREE EGYPT!
