An Open Letter

An open letter to the Rev. Jesse Jackson

We, the members of the Mojo family
Feel that your actions and retoric as a self professed leader
Of the black community are in fact detrimental to the very
People you claim to represent

We also feel that as a result you do much to undermind the well-being
And harmony of the United States as a whole

You kind of work for
The advancement of the black community

And you speak from a position
That the black population cannot advance it self socialy, politically or economically
Because an immovable object, the white establishment
Forever blocks it's path

Yet you preach further support such as welfare and affirmative action
That put members of the population in a position of dependancy and
Reliance on the establishment
You bask in the glow of the media spot light

You passionately decree that racism and prejudice
Are alive today as they were four hundred years ago

But does this do anything to reverse it's effect?

No one with the intellegence will deny
That a great atrocity was commited
Against the black race at the hands of white settlers of this country

But a wound cannot heal if it is continuously re-opened

That is to say, that it will heal but it will take much longer

And the scar it leaves will be grotesque and raise high on the skin

A true leader leads by example
And the example you have shown is not one of stregnth of character Self-reliance
Commentment to excellence or personal accountability

It's these traits that are necessary to advace oneself as an individual

It is only as strong curagous and moral individuals
That any race can live the quality of life that it chooses
We give our deepest respect to the true leaders

Alan Keys, J.C. Watts, Tony Brown, and Dr. Walter Williams
Men who never deny their heritege
But are proud to be first and
Foremost a part of the human race
