So famram posted the video about citizenship.... and laws.

For some reason when I'm around black youth they don't know shyt about shyt. It's confusing because so much info has been lost even since I was a kid. Older black adults and black elites are just lost for the most part - almost as if they've given up on most 'nikkas'

Furthermore there are those on this very site that have simple and naïve comments about the situation of black Americans, why we are here, and how we fix it.

So I suggest we post it in videos, because most people don't like to read comments. I read all of your comments, but most people like videos..... I don't do videos like that - have books n shyt.. but I want some videos that explain our journey.

This thread is bringing a tear to my eye. I have several GIGs of videos, audio, speeches, and writings from Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey and other Africans from back in the day. The amazing thing is that a lot of the answers that we are seeking today were already revealed back then. I'm going to upload my collection over the next few weeks and share it with the brothers on the coli that are interested.

I started collecting this stuff mostly for my newborn son. I want to make sure that I do a good job of educating him and equipping with the information and knowledge that will be vital for his survival as an African (in) America.

About the same time that Hampton was successfully organizing young African Americans for the NAACP, the Black Panther Party (BPP) started rising to national prominence. Hampton was quickly attracted to the Black Panthers' approach, which was based on a ten-point program of a mix of black self-determination and certain elements of Maoism. Hampton joined the Party and relocated to downtown Chicago, and in November 1968 he joined the Party's nascent Illinois chapter — founded by Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) organizer Bob Brown in late 1967.
Over the next year, Hampton and his associates made a number of significant achievements in Chicago. Perhaps his most important accomplishment was his brokering of a nonaggression pact between Chicago's most powerful street gangs. Emphasizing that racial and ethnic conflict between gangs would only keep its members entrenched in poverty, Hampton strove to forge a class-conscious, multi-racial alliance between the BPP, the Young Patriots Organization and the National Young Lords under the leadership of Jose Cha Cha Jimenez. Later they were joined by the Students for a Democratic Society, the Blackstone Rangers, the Brown Berets and the Red Guard Party.[3][4] In May 1969, Hampton called a press conference to announce that a truce had been declared among this "rainbow coalition," a phrase coined by Hampton and made popular over the years by Rev. Jesse Jackson, who eventually appropriated the name in forming his own unrelated coalition, Rainbow/PUSH.
Hampton's organizing skills, substantial oratorical gifts, and personal charisma allowed him to rise quickly in the Black Panthers. Once he became leader of the Chicago chapter, he organized weekly rallies, worked closely with the BPP's local People's Clinic, taught political education classes every morning at 6am, and launched a project for community supervision of the police. Hampton was also instrumental in the BPP's Free Breakfast Program. When Brown left the Party with Stokely Carmichael in the FBI-fomented SNCC/Panther split, Hampton assumed chairmanship of the Illinois state BPP, automatically making him a national BPP deputy chairman. As the Panther leadership across the country began to be decimated by the impact of the FBI's COINTELPRO, Hampton's prominence in the national hierarchy increased rapidly and dramatically. Eventually, Hampton was in line to be appointed to the Party's Central Committee's Chief of Staff. He would have achieved this position had it not been for his assassination on the morning of December 4, 1969.[3][4]
FBI investigation
While Hampton impressed many of the people with whom he came into contact as an effective leader and talented communicator, those very qualities marked him as a major threat in the eyes of the FBI.

One fundamental problem with black people is that you do not have a strong "Powerful Elitist Afro-centric Racist" [PEAR] group guiding and profiting from the development of black culture through the ages...

All the successful races and ethnicities have such groups...

Black people are letting entertainers (musicians, athletes and actors) , many who have no real education, decide the fate of black culture...The majority of these people DON"T even represent an ideology that is necessary to build a strong community...

Chief Keef has had a bigger cultural impact on the up-coming black youth then most educated black people you can name...This would be fine, if black people had already a strong and firm cultural foundation..

i made the young black genius thread and i really hope people were trolling because some of the posts looked like people could not digest or relate to the concept of a black genius that isnt related to sports or music
