"The phenomenon of peer pressure and its impact on
academic achievement has reached catastrophic propor-
tions. It has now reached a point that to do well academical-
ly in school is to act white and risk being called a nerd ora
brainiac. For males, the peer pressure is so great, you may be
called a sissy. Can you imagine the ancestor’s children, who
built the first civilization and taught the ancient Greek
scholars, attributing academic achievement to being
White? Please do not discern this solely to integration.
There are schools that only African-American students at-
tend, there are no White students, and they still say to be
smart is to be white.
Our students go to many kinds of schools. Some attend
all-Black schools in low-income neighborhoods, others at-
tend all-Black schools in middle-income communities,
others attend integrated, elite, magnet high schools where
admission is based on a test, some attend integrated schools
in the suburbs, and lastly some attend coed, homogeneous,
private schools. This book is written for students in all five
circumstances. In Philadelphia, the audience described ex-
periences from all five settings. They were surprised that in
the latter three environments—magnet schools, integrated
suburban schools, and private schools—negative peer
pressure still existed for their children. Many parents work-
ed very hard to live in more affluent neighborhoods and pay
tuition so their children could be ‘‘inspired”’ by a positive
peer group. Other parents like Namorahor my wife and I
were able to have our children admitted into elite magnet
schools, only to find this silent killer there too."
Jawanza Kunjufu is the author of over 25 books including national bestsellers, Countering the Conspiracy to Destroy Black Boys, State of Emergency: We Must Save African American Males, Solutions for Black America, Keeping Black Boys Out of Special Education, Raising Black Boys and his most recent, 200 Plus Educational Strategies to Teach Children of Color.

📜 The Haitian Revolution: Fire and Freedom - The revolution kicks off with such strength and ferocity, the French leaders in charge couldn't believe that slaves had planned and executed the revolt. The Big Whites, Little Whites, and Free People of Color all began infighting. Meanwhile, Haiti's plantations and mills were quickly engulfed by flames as the uprising moved across the island. But as the Revolution began to claim lives and leaders, the formerly enslaved people found that they were not immune to infighting either. But amidst the swelling chaos, new leaders rose. Key figures like Toussaint Louverture. *

I've taking control over the things that matter to me. I control my land, water, energy, food and medicine. Let's talk power, once we lose our amnesia on who we are, where we are, what we must still be, and where we must still go, then we can become empower to be like our ancestors. But, we must learn our history told by us to know who our ancestors are.

Believe it or not, some parts of West Africa converted voluntarily to Islam long before the mass enslavement began across the Sahara and the Atlantic. A bit of a rehash from last week but we will detail what happened to cause it being embedded into society.
