I Had A Dream...I dont think this was the kind of dream Rev. Martin Luther King Jr fought and died for. I dont think this was the rights their fore fathers struggled and suffered for. And I dont think this was why hundreds of thousands of men, women and children walked, sang, were bathed, got beat, brutalized and bruised for. Seeing blacks killing blacks, doing drugs, living rough, swearing and promoting violence in their hoods. Martin Luther King didnt shed those tears so that a black man can indulge in drug/substance abuse, be more 'white' than the whites or drop out of college to be a gangster. See how prison yards are being filled daily with blacks, who are so happy and eager to do time, forgeting the blood that was shed so that they may have a future. I shed tears each time I think of the pain many black folks suffered in the past, so that every black man and woman would be liberated, seeing what blacks have turned into in America today. Now so deep in strange culture, doctrines and lifestyles. Their brutality and segregation couldn't destroy you, but see how easily you're being destroyed systematically via assimilation under the guise of civilization. Where is the Church of yore. That sang those sweet melodious and soul lifting songs. Christlike in nature and blessed with a Congregation that loved God. He had a dream, but not this kind of dream...

nice dream joseph
