SELF-HELP MAGNET

SELF-HELP IS A PROVEN MAGNET I never cease to be amazed by media online outlets and by individuals, who complain about what white media does not depict about blacks or black history; or, who complain about what they were not taught in school about blacks and their history. These are specious complaints and excuses for willful ignorance. No one owes a duty to inform you about yourself, particularly if to do so will come at the expense of themselves. Not everyone is so stupid as to believe that the wolf will liberate the lamb, other than down its own gullet! Self-help, and self-education is your "responsibility"--a bad word meaning "work"--among those who prefer indolent irresponsibility to: self-exertion, to self-help; who prefer to complain and cry "woe is me!" ; Or "how wretched I am;" or to just wait ! Self-responsibility or self-help is the proven magnet that attracts the aid and the empathy of others, not self-pity, not lack of vision or effort! All known knowledge now exists online. Free public libraries are overflowing with books. There are simply no more excuses for wanton ignorance and for abject stupidity, if there ever was, considering that many slaves learned to read, write, cipher, and figure out how to be free from slavery, when to do so was illegal;while the rest of this nation was preoccupied with itself and not them, whom they considered to be mere chattel, dumb mutes, animals! Get up! Get on up and help yourself !
