"Man improves himself as he follows his path; is he stands still, waiting to improve before he makes a decision, he'll never move." -Paulo Coelho
Born August 17, 1887. In the 1920's the organization he founded had over 10 million dues paying members all over the world, it was the largest Black membership organization in our story. The UNIA-ACL was able to Build Black Businesses like stores, factories, farms, professional businesses, schools, and even purchase BIG Ships, not to take Blacks to Africa, like we where taught to believe, but so that we could build our own global economic infrastructure, in order to take care of your own. The UNIA-ACL membership grow without the use of the Internet, TV, or cell phones, the organization used its own newspaper to reach millions, even though it was band in some countries. Marcus Mosiah Garvey's vision was for us to become a free and self-determining people by teaching knowledge of self, do for self and love for self. Can we do greater things? I say YES WE CAN!

New Movie
Looks like the Tulia movie is slowly moving forward, but here's another that comes out April 17, 2009
American Violet
Director: Tim Disney
Writer: Bill Haney
Cast: Alfre Woodard, Michael O’Keefe, Tim Blake Nelson, Will Patton, Charles S. Dutton, Xzibit, Nicole Beharie
Plot: Based on real events and set in a small Texas town in the midst of the 2000 Bush/Gore Presidential election, "American Violet" tells the astonishing story of Dee Roberts, a 24 year old African-American single mother of four who is wrongfully swept up in a drug raid. Despite the urgings of her mother, and with her freedom and the custody of her children at stake, she chooses to fight the powerful district attorney and the unyielding criminal justice system he represents.
The film is based on the true story of Regina Kelly, who lived in Hearne, TX, the town where she was falsely accused of felony drug-trafficking charges based on the uncorroborated testimony of a single informant.
Kelly successfully fought the charges with the help of the ACLU. Her case resulted in changes to Texas law.

Marcus Garvey lives
Every Student of Political Science, every student of Economics knows that the race can only be saved through a solid industrial foundation, that the raced can only be saved through political independence. Take away industry from a race take away political freedom from a race and you have a group of slaves. -Marcus Garvey. Let us learn from the past so that we can save our future. Do for self. Think black ,live black, buy black, lift up the bar think, think. Then do something! What do we control in our own communities. We need to understand our position on the world stage as a people and realize that now more then ever we must be united. Ras Kwame
