The Blowoff

So I just got blown off by Tayo because she's been "looking forward to this vp debate for weeks". Maybe HD is right, maybe I do just be talking to the wrong people. Maybe I need a new circle of friends. Wow, i'm stunned everyday by the level of political consciousness we at. Maybe I shouldn't be though. Capitalism is a helluva drug. Most of us been sippin this kool-aid since birth and even some so called Revolutionaries is like "i'm scared of Mccain". Dam, this is deep. It's still bigger than Hip-hop. It's still bigger than Mccain or Obama. It's still bigger than just being a good person. We need good Revolutionaries. Yea that means reading. That mean studying political systems and learning the ideologies at play. That mean being organized!! You part of an organization, i might disagree with you, but at least you making an honest attempt and I could respect that. Do that and we'll figure out what works. But if you aint, and you just kool with your little spot on the plantation, at least be honest about it. Don't front like you about something and you really aint about nothing. You can't tell me nothing if you aint never did nothing cuz you don't know nothin. You aint in no position to criticize me until you've put in some work for your people. People, there's a science to everything. There's a science to growing plants and there's a science to growing consciousness. We'll be scientific about every single thing except for the most important thing: our Liberation. I'm telling you this is deep. I'm real aggy right now, but that's kool, that just make me know we got a lot more work to do.

Hasta La Victoria!!
