Ok, so this will be the introduction for my blog. I know it wont really matter because after a while no one will even see this post. Unless they just want to see everything that I've written. I opened this blog because i feel as though I need an outlet for my everyday thoughts. Especially considering that i talk about the same things all the time. I really have to find an outlet because everyone that I talk to is getting sick of hearing me talk about them. So the solution, new audience = new topics well at least for you.
So please forgive me if I tend to talk about the same topic, but I don't think you'll really care. Its just something to read, but hey maybe you'll find it interesting while everyone near me finds it dull and tiring.
Enough about that. The topics that I'll talk about will be based on Detroit, African and African American History, Transitioning to go Natural, Natural Hair Care, and the challenges of being an intelligent African American female in an urban city. Trust me its not easy.
These are the things that I tend to talk about all the time. My bf thinks I'm trying to become completely Afrocentric with the Dashiki and all. Which is not true. I find an interest in learning about the history of people as a whole. There's something inspiring in knowing what and who was once here before now.
My very first rant. Umm, I hope this doesn't go too long because I know once I get started its kind of hard to stop or either I'll stop at the most awkward time where its actually hard to wrap. Well here it goes:
What was Mayor Kwame thinking???? He makes it so hard to try to support him during these trying times. Especially when he does something so stupid like going to Canada without permission. WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!!???!!!! I mean really did you think no one was going to notice you? You know these people out here hate you and want to see you out of office. Did you forget you were out on a bond? Or do you just think that the rules don't apply to you? Okay, maybe that's what it is, but unfortunately you have to learn the hard way that a lot of people out here don't care who yo daddy is. All they know is that your a young black mayor of a major city and they don't like that because you stand for hope for a lot of young black men especially in this city. And your really putting a lot of them down. Your really becoming a negative idol for them and me.
I have to admit I was a strong supporter of Kwame even after the new trucks, the hiring of family members and getting paid under the table, even after Christine Beatty, but this one really has me questioning things. All I can do is shake my head in disgust and wonder what the hell is really going on. In this world when we do questionable things there are always consequences that will come eventually. I know it all stimulated from something that happened in like 2002 or 2003 and here it is nearly the fall of 2008. Well I can say that Kwame taught me one thing if nothing at all, always keep your noes clean. LOL.
Well, that's all for today til next time.
Love, Peace, and Please No Hair Grease (do you know what's in that stuff),
