Another wake up call for America!!!!!!!
We are going backward! We are heading right back to the days of Emmitt Teel, Medgar Evers, Martin Luther King Jr. Malcolm X and Black Wall Street! I try and keep the Jena 6 issue alive, but when I create a post about it it gets next to no attention. However, it just does not start there! There was an innocent elderly black lady killed in her home by police in Atlanta. Then there is a young black lady in West Virginia brutally tortured and held against her will. You have a young black man living a strip club the morning before his wedding in NYC, killed by police. These are just a few examples. Now this! Teens in Henry County Georgia painting a mannequin black, tie a noose around its neck and hang it over I-75. What is this world coming to?

Once again, this gets little coverage!

1. It's not what this "world is coming to"; it's what AMERICA is going back to.
The rest of the world continues to move forwards.

3. K&R
This needs to stay in front of our attention. Not to mention the situation in New Orleans continues to be really bad.
