True...the number one thing that gets to me is I WANT this country to be better. I believe in what the people before us wanted for our generation...it saddens me that we're constantly fighting against those who don't want things to change.
I have many great memories here, but the thing that gets to me is what type of environment do I want my kids to live in? And that's where I stand still next to myself.
The Malcolm Xs, MLKs, WEB Dubois, Marcus Garveys, etc...they wanted better for us...are we there? Are we willing to work to better that, or are we just complacent?
That's the reason I don't care about the older generation...they gave up on us. I care about the youth cause they still have a passion for this country and for change that they abandoned or didn't have....that's what tears me up about these conversations. These kids don't know. I rather care about them and reach out to them nowadays.
