22. I had known it for some time
and remained in denial in order to function. In '92 Clora Bryant and Dorothy Donegan cornered me at a functon at Local 47. They both "impressed upon me" the importance of getting my "skinny black ass" as Aunty D put it, outta there. I protested that my kids were young and I would not be able to take them with if I did so. Early in '94, Jan.17 4:00am to be exact, I heard a LOUDER demand. At that point my boys said, "Go for it" and I will NEVER regret having done so.

I live in the land where the seriously funky fascist shit went down. I watch the land of my birth from afar through DU, so often shaking my head while holding it in my hands...

TODAY I am energized. As goes the U.S. so goes the world. It's been pretty outrageous, but today I'm confident. JOB ONE is the *dauphin frontman's mask gets ripped off. He's a slimy-smirking-shirking-slacker who thinks the "rules" don't apply to him. He may be about to discover otherwise.

He can only get a pass THIS time if y'all give it to him. Do me a favor... DON'T. The ROTW realizes what they're dealing with and there's already hell to pay...
