GHETTOLOGY

OK lets dive into this Ghettology study..... I know your probably thinking what in the world is Ghettology...... Well let me break it down for you.... Ghettology is something I made up, it's not an official scientific study, however it's based on real facts, truths, and beliefs of the inner-city population.... Ghettology is the study of the mentality of the inhabitants of the ghetto.... OK, let me break it down a little further.... Ghetto- (noun) A part of a city, esp. a slum area, occupied by a minority group or groups.... WOW right, I bet you never knew that and if you did you probably have asked this question, Why is 75% of the the 11% population of blacks in America in prison?.... Well if you haven't asked that question then you probably have asked this one, Why does the suburban area of a city look so plush, peaceful, and polite, and the inner-city look so violent, vile, and vain? Well why?.... Look at your government, how come they won't tell you why? Or how come preachers aren't preaching this, how come it's not in schools? Speaking of schools, why does the schools in suburban communities have state of the art technology and cutting edge teaching while the inner-city or the public schools have 3rd class books and technology from the 80's?.... All of these things made me wonder why I wasn't doing what I thought should be done.... So i took my experience of being a product of the ghetto, history, culture, music, and my family tree to study and reveal this mentality, not just for black America but to spark minds to do the same all over the globe.... I believe we have too many intelligent people talking about hip-hop, when hip-hop is the outwardly signs to a inwardly problem, in other words why would a doctor from Harvard give botox treatments to a Aids patient.... So stay tuned for this 4pt. series it's going to be a bumpy ride.... The first part is going to be called " THE GREED OF THE BEAST "....... BE HEARD!!!!

BEATING THE ODDS

Thank God for another year, I am so blessed to be alive. Yes I turned 23 oct.6th..... If that doesnt mean anything to you let me tell you why I'm so excited.... The statistics say that I should be dead, in jail, dead beat dad with multiple women, selling drugs, not a high school grad, not a college grad or attendent, all by the age of 21 and thats just to name a few..... I'm still alive, I'm not in jail, I'm not anyones biological father, however I help with my nieces, I'm not selling drugs, I graduated from high school in 2003, I graduated from ITT TECH in 2005, I'm graduating from the International College Of Broadcasting in Nov...... Thank God for that, however I not stopping there I wanna teach others how they can beat those same odds too, it's hard work but it starts with a dream and begins with God, you will get weary and there will be storms, you will be challenged and tried, BUT IT'S WORTH EVERY BIT OF THE STRUGGLE!!!..... Stay tuned for my next blog, I want to discuss the new scientific study called "Ghettology" or "Ghet-tology"...... This is the study of the ghetto mentality specifically for African Americans but not subject to any one race but for all who go through this way of life..... It's going to be a wild ride...... I'm gonna deal with a whole spectrum of things..... I mean why not? This is why blogging was designed.
