Ok. As young black men, we are in prison in very high numbers. Yes, there is a systematic plan in place to keep these numbers high. Yes, America needs to continue to build America on the backs of slaves and get free labor. Yes, America accepts and wants us in prison. Yes, America plants drugs in the community and give it to us freely so that we can get locked up and become a free prison worker to power corporate American greed.

NO, we don’t have to actively participate. We do not have to be inmates. We do not have to engage in activities that get you a one-way ticket to jail. We can change the situation and be better. Yes, we can. We don’t have to sell and deal drugs on the corner because we feel inferior and feel that we cannot go to college and make it the way other kids can.
Trust me when I tell you that just because someone gives you a brick on the avenue to sell it and make money, that this person is legit. Many times, this is an undercover agent working for the feds who plant drugs in the community in order to test people, let them sell it, and have a sting operation set up to watch the paper trail.
Fast money is the work of the devil. Slow money is the work of champions. You don’t have to make money today just to feel like you’re doing something major. And most times, young cats say that they need to take care of their baby mama and haven’t sent her a dime to take care of the child in years. Stop being a part of a designed plan to keep you handcuffed both physically and mentally.
