Genarlow Wilson… Who knew sex could be so devastating

GENARLOW WILSON … Read it for yourself, I have no words …

There’s a JENA in every state…sadly, the saga continues

You would think that after the Jena 6 case FINALLY reached the media lens and after the injustices were FINALLY put out in the forefront, the subtle and blatant white vs. black, reminiscent of circa 1960s incidents would subside.  The opposite has seemed to happen.  Everywhere you look now there is an incident of some racial inequity or questionable injustice.  It’s 2007, and it floors me to see how all of these isolated events have bubbled to the surface.  One can not help but entertain the thought that they have always been there, and now they have exploded as Jenas in every state, city, neighborhood … Check out this detailed article of Post-Jena “Jena-like” events:

Nothing’s Black and White, Everything’s Grey

Everything is open to interpretation, black and white are not so cut and dry
what once was accepted as just and truth have now imploded with hows and whys
Perception has maximized, and minimized reality – don’t believe everything ink bleeds
You must produce the ultimate plant of life … information has only planted a seed
Cherish each moment, relish each relationship, for nothing lasts forevermore
enjoy or discuss for even this too shall pass, but the memories will ever be stored
