Talking to the Wind?

My 18,000 word thesis earned me a Masters of Biblical Studies degree (a wholistic plan to empower low-income black America). I'm here to network for publication and to seek out like-minded African Americans (curtis.hervey@yahoo.com). As a Distinguished Graduate of OCS, I seek to apply battle-tested military principles to solving black pathology by issuing a national warning order. I'm an iconoclast, my doctrine is Washingtonian (as in Booker T.) and my role is that of Socratic Gadfly.
I am not here at www.aframnews.com to do no other thing than to connect with like-minded African American Christians who, like me, are sick and tired of the staus quo and are ready to get their hands dirty.
But it feels like I've been talking to the wind. This partially explains my hiatus.
I need to know I am not wasting my time and energy here. Am I the only sane black man? Does anybody else besides myself think that a 70% illegitimacy rate is shocking?
I've already gone through all the normal phases. I evoled past my self-centeredness and began to care about things much larger than myself. I conlcuded that blacks, as a people group, had low self-esteem and reasoned that that explained our bad behavior and poor performance.
Consequently, I conlcuded that "knowledge of self" would deprogram our nation that has been brainwashed with a steady diet of eurocentric and anglocentric propaganda since birth. And I naturally became an apologist for the balck cause and advocated re-education.
But, I eventually realized that, no mater how many debates I won against white racists,sellouts and Uncle Toms, the facts remained unchanged, the statistics were never improved.
So, now I am a seeker of truth, no matter how unpopular or ugly it may be. I know that making excuses for balcks does us more harm than good and a true patirot corrects those he claims to love.
If I seem harsh and angry, I assure you it is because I love black people. In fact, my rage is in direct proportion to my love for you because I know what we are capable of and it breaks my heart to see us not reaching our potential.
A noble, good, and decent people group should not suffer for as long as we have. And I aim to see that change by any LEGAL and peaceful means necessary.
Is anyone out there? or am i all alone? am I just talking to the wind?
