Why I Believe That Juneteenth Is Important

Today is Juneteenth and all day I’ve been debating some of my friends who say Juneteenth is not worth celebrating. Main reason being, that we should have never been enslaved in the first place. A point I used to have myself. I actually used to share the same opinions and views as the friends Ive been debating all morning. But now I see things differently and its not just because we have a Black president ( for real this time ).
I see things differently now because I now realize the power or information and knowledge. Speaking of which, if youre not all the way sure what Juneteenth is about, I invite you to educate your self http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juneteeth ...

I think what alot of people fail to realize, is that when Black people were enslaved in America, we were not only deprived of our freedom, in the sense that we had no rights, no options, forced to work, we had masters, we were considered sub-human. But the biggest thing our then masters wanted to deny us was education and information. The less you know as a person, the easier you are to control. Its been proven through out time. Also whats been proven through out time, is that information and knowledge is power. Juneteeth is a shining example of that fact. The Emancipation Proclamation was issued in sept 1862 and to take effect jan 1863. Except for the people of the “great” state of texas decided NOT TO TELL or recognize that slaves had been freed for two whole years. On this day, June 19th 1865, the Black people of texas were informed by Union troops that they had been freed two years previous. To put that into perspective. Imagine somebody got two years of free work from you. Not only free work, but it was ok to keep you in bondage against your will. Imagine if you were imprisoned for no reason and forced to work and you could have been released from that situation two years ago… only if you would have known. only if some body would have told you about the new law that was passed. Only if you would have known. Think about all the people that were whipped and didnt have to be. Think about all the work that was done that nobody was paid for. Think about wishing for freedom you really already had but you just didnt know it!

This is what keeps me from watching Jimmy Falon

This is The Most Blowed Thing Ive Ever Seen

Craig Ferguson is great for this. I was SOOO blowed when this popped on my tv. I was getting ready to go to bed… turning my computer off n shit and then out of no where… this shit:

I was STUCK… like what in the fuuuuuuck is this shit here?! I couldnt get over the nigga in the back in his draws and socks with the guitar. Then all of a sudden this lil muhfucka walks out in the gimp fit…. I was way too blowed for this shit right here. It just got worse and worse and worse.

This is why I dont watch Jimmy Falon. His show is shot in HD, he has the roots band playing live, he has the great looking set. I love the way his show looks. But he doesnt make shit for people who are higher than Giraffe ass! Craig Ferguson does! His show needs to be shot in HD! And he needs a super spiff LA Set!

Need further proof?

Niggas and Flies. Always on some shit

So this is whats hood in The Chi huh?

LOL I dont really think this shit. But the homie Max has confirmed that this was filmed on the south side of Chicago lol. I Think thats great. This shit might as well be an official commercial… well… they might have to redo it. And the main singer might have to try not to get TOO excited over what he is gonna eat and actually drop an actual product name or 8. I almost thought it was a real commercial, until this nigga didnt go down the ingredients of the Big Mac… because I just KNEW that was coming when he got all excited lol. Oh well. If youre gonna show your ass like this, you might as well get paid. I hope these niggas get a deal some where for their awesome display of niggatry. This was great.

I met Halle Berry once. She kinda touched me. I didnt get to touch her back. Sigh… and she didnt touch me like this.

Im not saying I hate Jamie Foxx, nor am I about to hate on him right now. Just maybe point out the fact that he isnt much taller than her, and she has on heels. Im just sayin lol….

Angry Man Soup!

Its a little know fact that Delonte West has an anger problem. When he was traded to the Cavs, I do believe he had to take sometime away from the team to handle his anger problem. Well my cousin and I know about his anger problem every since he was a punk ass boston celtic. Ive seen him on the bench way too pissed. Like more pissed than every other NBA player. I used to think it was hilarious. So every since then, his name has been Angry Man. And Angry Man has clearly has found new ways to take out his aggression in more productive ways that help his team.

THROW IT DOWN ANGRY MAN!!! I think that was Marvin Willians? he dunked on? LOL none the less, it was pretty vicious! And worthy of Soup Theater!
