Not every industry is regulated. Small businesses, film production companies, internet start ups, are not forced to hire with a conscience regarding minorities.  It takes conscientious effort on the part of the business owner, producer, PM, and anyone who is in a position to hire, to be on the side of equal rights and positive social change.  It isn't that women and other minorities are not developing the skills, possessing the talent, the drive or eagerness to perform a job well, as a matter of fact, we tend to work harder to prove ourselves.  We do not have membership in the white boys club that hires, and greenlights so many jobs, careers and projects.  If you are choosing to be conscious in this lifetime and have a positive lasting effect, consider women and other minorities when creating opportunities.

That Reverend Wright reminds me of Detroit.

It is a fine line between Afrocentric knowledge and Afrovictim conspiracy theory.

That Reverend reminds me that not everyone is aware that we all learn uniquely.  Yes culture can have it's affect.  Yes some cultures are more out loud and some are quiet.  We must remember that in every culture their are introverts and extroverts, people who learn in a visual, kinetic, audio and every combination known and unknown way. 

Obama cutting loose from his church must have triggered something.

I watched a Greek funeral scene in a film and started crying for my loss.  I left the church because of what they said and did.  I left their sexism knowing that was not the way for me to honor god.  But, that meant I sacrificed a lot of what I loved on this earth.  Thankfully that sacrifice made room for other cherished blessings.

yes we are all one.
no there is not just one way.
