The Future of Black America

By: Allen Singleton

 Is it time? Black America is a term that is not often used by many speakers’ today. You may be wondering what is Black America? Black America’s definition is relative; however we can say that it is what you see and believe the role is of black people in the society of America. There is a term that I am sure that you are very familiar with, and that is “Globalization”. As humans we all have the power of free will. With the influence of technology, media, and constant innovation we often forget what creates these opportunities: the human mind. Globalization is the new buzz word and is the new focus on everybody’s mind.

The opportunity to create something to have an impact on the entire world is great. The opportunity to push the human race forward and make things better for everyone is amazing. However, there is duality in everything in life. The more that you remain focused on Globalization, the more you forget about your own people. It is important to note that as an individual you should take control of your own mind. You should realize that each race in America takes care of their own people. Jews support Jews. Asians support Asians. Europeans support Europeans. Hispanics support Hispanics. How about Blacks? Blacks support everyone else but themselves. It is a huge issue that has been prevalent for a long time. Blacks lack unity and harmony which is necessary for evolution to take place.

 Is it time? Black America is in trouble. The more that our young minds are focused on Globalization; the less we are focused on the unity and harmony among our own people. The challenge is for leadership to spark a revolution. The leaders of the past have all been taken out by America- MLK Jr., Malcolm X, Marcus Garvey, and anyone who represents true leadership. This puts Black America in a tough situation. Who will be courageous enough to be the leaders of the future of Black America? There are many solutions. The revolution is personal and takes place within the individual. How do you wake up your fellow brothers and sisters in Black America to the situation at hand if you are yourself -asleep? You must work to evolve and build your own consciousness and then go out and civilize others. Unlike the past, the future of Black America doesn't require one leader, but ALL people to become conscious and take control over their own minds. With control over your own mind you can control your thoughts and actions. With this new consciousness you can question things you have been taught as truth and search for your own truth. With this new consciousness you can search for your own understanding of your people’s origination in this world.

With this new consciousness you can take time to personally develop and work on your inner self. After you have developed yourself personally, you can focus on professional development and take advantage of opportunities in the world that you are naturally drawn too and create passion for. With this new consciousness you can spread love, unity, and harmony with your own people and eventually all people. With this new consciousness you can now make a significant impact on the world. With this new consciousness- IT IS TIME. Picture 1: Believe Nothing. Picture 2: Unlearn Picture 3: Insert Picture with these words: Ancient Temple in Egypt "Man Know Thyself" Video:
