Yep, It's Possible

A great question was brought up today. By who? That isnt important. Anyway the question brought up was "Why do blacks always have to click up?" At school...parties...in the work field...everywhere. This is a very good question because I have always noticed this. From elementary...to middle school...to high school...even college! Isnt this sad? We've developed these means of separation as though its innate. There has always been talks about how we need peace and harmony...why cant we get along...why are blacks most judged by other blacks...without really knowing the person...many many negative connotations. Which is actually really frustrating. To try to break free of these we form clubs and organizations to bring blacks together. Does this work? Um...sometimes im sure...but I have yet to see this at its full potential. At these meetings little groups of friends sit together and as a whole...discussing unity...bettering the community...or smaller steps like bettering the schools in which they attend. Although they all agree on the problems and what the solutions for these problems should be...they still remain in those clicks... come as clicks...leave as clicks..not one person more or one person less. How contradicting huh? Yes there are your friends you stick with because you are closest to them but do you not even have room for associates? Is it hard to show some acceptance to people outside of your click? Especially when you are in fact a member of one of these African American associations and what not. These can be people you just chat with...say hello to...get to know at least. Because maybe if we all get to know each other a little better there will be less hate and shit talking...maybe...lol. Especially if you are in a club or organization together. Why promote unity and togetherness when there are individual clicks all around talking shit here and there about how they dont like him or her ...and how him or her thinks they are all that...and how him or her is blah blah blah. Quit talking shit. If you do not know even one single fact about a person who are you to judge? How are we going to make it anywhere? We have to take one step at a time....but all I see is 2 steps backwards ...everyday.

To be honest...some clubs even become clicks. Everyone in that club or organization hang together and if you are not in the club then you either are hated because members of the club think that you think you are better than them or judgment is placed on any action made or word spoken by you because there are just miserable people in the world. So there are clicks within clubs which is a click in itself. How many times can we all be divided? Hate doesnt work...lets try love. It's possible to break the clicks. Ive seen it happen...and I've seen some of the greatest friendships bloom because of it. That person in that other click in elementary is now your best friend in college...or watch...that person in that other click in college will become one of your career field partners or even your boss! haha. Imagine that. There just needs to be action. Obviously talk does make much progress. We can become more unite. It's possible.
