Things aren't always as bad as they appear to be. The grass only "appears" to be greener on the other side. Take a closer look.

Cherish and appreciate what you already have.

As I was sitting at my desk at work today listening to a new song being performed by one of my favorite Old School Hip-Hop groups called A Tribe Called Quest ( also known as ATCQ), I had a flashback of the 90's; which was a great era for music. Then I got to thinking about other groups in the 90's, such as Goodie Mob , Outkast , The Fugees ,& Jodeci , which then sent me deeper into a Flashback mode. I started asking myself the following questions: Since it appears as though a lot of great music was released in 1998, where were you that year? What were you doing?

Immediately, I had opened "Pandora's Box", if you will; because all types of memories started flowing through my head, but the affect wasn't as strong as it used to be.

Effects of Repetitive Racial Injustice in America Amongst Black People

     With everything going on in our country lately, I truly believe that many of my Sisters and Brothers are dealing with PTSD , Paranoia , or have become casualties of war . I'm going to break down what I mean by focusing on one at a time, providing examples. I'll first start by explaining what all 3 of these ailments are, and NO I do not believe they are mental illnesses. I believe they are consequences or effects of some sort of traumatic incident or event.      According to the American Psychological Association , PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) is an anxiety problem that develops in some people after extremely traumatic events, such as combat, crime, an accident, or natural disaster. Visit the website for the behavior or symptoms of people with PTSD, and you will see how some of it matches the behavior or fear that many Black people have developed from being stopped by the police.      Based on the American Psychological Association's definition
