Freedom? Who said the struggle was over?

Holiday still only comes before Work & Reward in the Dictionary:
Just a word of caution… We have lived the Past and look forward to the Future, but for better or worse, all we have is here and now… Time moves on; Summer has arrived, Festive Season is here, and threats of Hurricanes are upon us, but before getting lost in sadness or celebrations, let us do the best we can while we can, in preparing as if another Hurricane Irma is on its way… Better we are safe than sorry.
Are we placing the right ladders on the wrong walls?

When the Beginning appears as Tragic as the End:
I am no Jesus, and why I do the things I do without expectations, may be hard to answer, but according to your story, Jesus healed ten lepers and only one bothered to say thanks... I may have been blocked in progress, fired from Government, and taken off Radio Stations for opposing corruption, but that never stopped me from bringing Truth to the Youth, because they are not to blame, and they are our Future.

Facing the Reality of Racism:
If Life is good but Racism is bad, then living in denial will not alter a grain of sand or blade of grass... Racism is real and must be exposed in order to be defeated… Those Persons who claim that speaking about it, makes it worse, are wrong, because all our present progress, has resulted from public Debate, and the Caribs, Arawaks, and American Indians, who were silent on their Displacement, suffered badly.

Messages from the Masters:
February, 2024, Black History Month… We can talk about anything, including how Ron DeSantis, a Ringleader for revoking our History with Anti-Woke Nonsense, has suffered a Presidential Nomination defeat... However, the threats are still growing, and we cannot risk the chance of their success, so we must work extra hard to ensure that this and generations to come will not be deprived of their Identity.
2024: A new year for tackling the same old problems

Needing to Look Backward so We can Move Forward:
Welcome to 2024... This is a leap year which means that with the expansion to 29 days in February, we will have the longest Black History Month within a seven year span... That is good, but even as we leave 2023, the after-effects still linger on... With all our Commentaries and New Year Resolutions, we should reflect and acknowledge whether or not things are getting better or worse, before our Memories fade.

It’s not Magic – It’s Basic:
We label ourselves the Information Generation, but the only things we were born knowing is how to eat and poop… All our knowledge was picked up from others, so if they are wrong then we are also wrong… Nonetheless, even as we follow their hand-me-down teaching, we still think we know more than they do, so we call ourselves special, and regard others, as fools and infidels, when we may really be the idiots.
Divorced from justice but not separated from the people

I am Forever Grateful, & Offer Thanks to you the People:
It may be flattering for persons to praise my last Articles as Master Pieces, but the truth is, the things I am saying now are what I have been saying all along… It’s merely a matter of speaking Truth to Power, in order to provide Truth for the Youth... It’s also okay for those who differ with me and call me a Hypocrite, because I promote the full employment of V-Islanders, even as I support the Rights of employed Non-Belongers.
