Dear

I believe with the democraticized access to media, where more people are speaking out for themselves,
the Black community and leaders will connect directly with each other instead of letting parties keep dividing them.
Once they fully unite, they can demand and lead solutions that represent their community
partnerships, talents and business development, schools and nonprofit outreach.
They won't need to rely on this system of dividing the poor "field slaves"
from the better off "house slaves" but will develop and own their own economic system
of banks and education/training to uplift their own family and community networks.
That will stop the flood of poor disenfranchised minorities filling the prisons,
and will turn that whole population around by investing in schools and jobs,
starting with medical care to treat the sick instead of punishing and exploiting social ills.
It's just a matter of time before the Black leadership, especially Black church and nonprofit
and media leaders, team up and quit letting the political games divide and oppress them.
I'd say people like Diamond and Silk, Kanye West and Cornel West, and the
progressive Black leaders I know with the Green Party and Public Radio
could start pulling this coalition work together that started with Occupy but got derailed.
Occupy the Dream was the first attempt to call for Black athletes, entertainers, and
business leaders to call for Federal Reserve reforms to equalize access and participation
in economic investment and ownership. But that got divided and silenced.
Now with loudmouths like Trump, Cortez, and everyone else fighting for time on the Mic,
ANYONE can speak out. Both pro and anti Kaepernick, and people going rogue like
Diamond and Silk. So this environment of free speech lends itself to more people coming
together, representing and speaking for themselves, and using that to come together as equals.
I believe this will help more people rise above party politics and start talking real solutions and reforms.
And the solutions are all about people investing in their own ownership and community development,
from business plans to campus development, taking back prisons and creating more jobs in
medical services and education to foster ownership of their own property and programs they
can govern directly themselves. Instead of relying on govt, and party politics as the middle man.
