The Revolutionist

Currently Reading at the Moment, so far so good. "The man with the Missing Hands"

"I Know it! I know it!
If I get out of here the river swallows me...It is my destiny:
Today I must Die!
But no, willpower can overcome everything there are the obstacles, I admit it
I don't want to come out. If I have to die, it will be in this cave.

The Bullets, what can the bullets do to me if my desitny is to die by drowning.
But I am going to overcome destiny. Destiny can be achieved by willpower.

Die, Yes, but riddled with bullets,
Destroyed by the bayonets, if not, no. Drowned, no a memory more lasting than my name
Is to fight, to die fighting."
-Ernesto Guevara (pg43-44)

N!GG@$ With Attitude (NWA)

Do not let the derogatory "N" word fool you, these brothers stirred up the entire nation with their organic yet explicit lyrics. Beyond their lyrics they were inspirational factors to many aspects of society: Music & Arts, Politics, Culture, and even Language. Though the group no longer remains, you can still find a hint of NWA in 2010. Read up to see a cool video featuring Ice Cube (bottom left).

"Bob Marley was born in the small village of Nine Mile in Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica as Nesta Robert Marley A Jamaican passport official would later swap his first and middle names. His father, Norval Sinclair Marley, was a Jamaican of English descent, whose family came from Essex, England. Norval was a captain in the Royal Marines, as well as a plantation overseer, when he married Cedella Booker, an Afro-Jamaican then 18 years old.

Bob Marley was a hero figure, in the classic mythological sense. His departure from this planet came at a point when his vision of One World, One Love -- inspired by his belief in Rastafari -- was beginning to be heard and felt.

Dr. Carter G. Woodson (1875-1950)

Dr. Woodson served humanity a countless number of achievements, most notable as the

“Father of Black History.” Woodson (1875-1950) was the son of former slaves, and understood how important gaining a proper education is when striving to secure and make the most out of one’s divine right of freedom. Although he did not begin his formal education until he was 20 years old, his dedication to study enabled him to earn a high school diploma in West Virginia and bachelor and master’s degrees from the University African American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard University (the first was W. E. B. DuBois). Dr. Woodson began teaching black students in the District of Columbia’s public schools and at Howard University. What started as a week long recognition of African Americans in History, Dr. Woodson transformed this week into a month.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

January 15, 1929 - April 4, 1968
One of the many great African American pioneers. A humble prophet who had
a dream of peace, may his prophecy live on long after I am gone. We need more
fearless men like this in the world. Dr. King....THANK YOU.
