Dr. Umar, Amos Wilson & Black Liberation Psychology
when it comes to what people now call "consciousness", i was lucky to be exposed to the teachings at an early age. for that, i am so thankful. but i remember going back to some of my early teachers and having them tell me, quite candidly, what was missing from their own development. we have the chance to redress some of those deficiencies in this generation. dr.umar is, without question, a bright individual. he truly is.
as brothers, we should NEVER allow anybody to slander him. EVER. we should be comfortable with saying I RESPECT UMAR JOHNSON without having to give a bunch of disclaimers and qualifying statements. we should be glad to see him succeed. we should learn from his example and avoid whatever pitfalls he has fallen into. who among us has not been caught up in this system, which targets black men from birth??? who doesn't remember what they did to black boys in elementary school, in high school, at the mall, walking the street? i respect umar johnson.
his work is valuable.
