Listening to a popular radio station here in Atlanta, mostly hip-hop based, I understand the degradation of our children's standards in themselves and society.
Every other word I heard was a profanity, or the "N" word or some disgusting reference to violence or women or drugs.
It is not cool to break the law or treat young women as sex objects and curse.
I yearn for the days when positive standards of respecting ourselves first so that we can respect others returns as "cool" and it becomes totally "uncool" to curse, refer to young ladies as "b*tches" or strong black youth as "N*".
I commit to bringing about positive change in our world
anything less is unacceptable.
