Farrakhan and the FOI hit the streets......
The Honorable Louis Farrakhan made kowledge born about hitting the streets with the FOI (Fruit of Islam) to show an united front, support, and down right disapproval of the senseless violence perpetrated throughout the ghetto's of North America (in particular, Chicago/C-Medina.)http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/National_News_2/article_9019.shtml 135 cities to be exact. Yesterday they (FOI) hit the streets running! I'll admit I didn't hear the Minister speak upon the event nor what it entails and for how long or was this a one shot deal? B.u.t I know the preception was profound. For the average Joe/Jane to see civilized, well groomed, well dressed, well disciplined men walking thru their neighborhood building with men, women and children to shine light on the knowledge of self and unity amongst other valuable topics as well had to leave a positive impression. In the grand scheme of things will this make a difference? Right now, this very moment, I would yes on a minute level. No negative connotations, just my fair, reality driven assessment. Out of hundreds of people yesterday who was involved in some capacity, observing, walking, or whatever, somebody will become better, spread the word, make a change and grow. So in this capacity, it was not in vain. However on the larger scale? This didn't scratch the surface. B.U.T THIS IS AN EXCELLENT DISPLAY OF TALKING THE TALK AND WALKING THE WALK, knowledge and wisdom being manifest. The answer to solving this genocidal problem has yet to be discovered. Just this past 4th of July a young teenage girl was returned back to the essecne out here in Love Allah and she was a friend of my daugther's. (SMH) http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2012/07/two-cousins-die-in-july-4-shooting-in-south-los-angeles.html This story is so prevalent, redundant and depressing that it's clear to see why the 85%er's have no hope and live for the moment with no regard about the next day. As adults our knowledge and wisdom must manifest maturity, focus, discipline and striving for love, peace and happiness. Without true examples what light do the youth reflect? Leave it up to entertainers? EMPHATICALLY NOW CIPHER!!! There's nothing wrong with entertainer's being role models b.u.t that shouldn't be the only avenue when the youth rarly get any interaction with these people. With the FIO hitting streets I see that as saying we (adults) have to do more then just talk. Nor is it up to the NOI to solely carry the load. Whether you agree or not, we all (adults) have a responsibility as well.
