Why are we deaf, dumb and blind? Why is everyone making progress, and yet we lag so far behind? Why are we mistreated? Why are we in this condition, Strip of our name, our culture, our God and our religion? Here in America, all of our religious training has been gotten by the preacher. He has told of a heaven, way up in the sky. That we can’t enjoy now, but rather after we die, </strong></p> <p><strong>But all of the years, that we are living, for us; there is nothing but hell, pain, torture and misgiving. Yet the bible speaks of a heaven, filled with material luxuries; which the White man and the preacher have riht here, you see? So my friends, take life for what its worth; your heaven and hell, are right here on this earth.”~Ali</strong></p> </blockquote>http://ellisonline.tumblr.com/post/39132738539http://ellisonline.tumblr.com/post/39132738539Sat, 29 Dec 2012 11:26:35 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me464yiF961r9npb1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>My mommy & me… #mom #mother #me #thanksgiving #newyorkcity #newyork #nyc #holiday #happy #family (at Harlem)</p>http://ellisonline.tumblr.com/post/36612730861http://ellisonline.tumblr.com/post/36612730861Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:24:33 -0500menewyorkcityfamilynewyorkthanksgivingmommothernycholidayhappy<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/EVkfNUxRh7g?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Democracy Prep Citizen-Scholars: Vote For Somebody!
