False Prophets by George Cook www.letstalkhonestly.com
In my opinion many claiming to be black leaders whether on a national level or on a local level are nothing more than false prophets. They have no one's interest in mind but their own.
You see many of these so called leaders would have no following, no power, and in some cases no source of income if black people would "Wake Up" and see them for what they are. They are people who looked around them and saw a bad situation but instead of thinking of how to fix the problems they though of ways to personally and financially capitalize on these problems.
These false prophets want lower income black people to stay ignorant and poor. When I say ignorant I mean just not knowing about all the resources available to them because educated people ask questions and don't need leaders to find the answers.
False prophets will blame America and slavery for ALL of our problems saying that this country has beaten us down until we are defeated but then turn around and say that this country should help us. That's like asking a man who just mugged you for $2 to catch the taxi home.
False prophets will tell you not to vote because your vote will not be counted because they know if we vote as we should we would gain political power and vote more of our own in taking power from the false prophet.
False prophets will tell you that you will never own a house because the white run financial institutions wont give you a loan but they will not mention HUD programs such as FHA or first time buyer. You see home owners make up the tax base and once you own a home your voice is heard more by politicians. Again if you are listing to your elected officials to see what's going on you are now tuning out the false prophet. Again he loses power.
False prophets will tell you that you can never have a business again because of the white run financial institutions but not tell you about small business loans, especially those set aside for minorities or about coming into the loan office with an actual business plan not just an idea. They will not tell you that last year most minority businesses were started by black women of all economic and educational levels.
False prophets will tell you that going to college will do you no good because they still won't give you a job when you graduate. What he wont tell you is that college graduates have more of a chance of finding employment than a high school graduate or dropout and make more than double the money. Because again money equals power. If we start making more money and rising up from the ghettos the false prophet loses his constituency base. Not a good thing for a false prophet.
Now how do we stop a False Prophet? That's easy people.
Get Educated, Read every thing you can, learn everything you can you are never to old to learn. You see a False Prophets worst enemy is not the white man but an educated BLACK MAN OR WOMAN.
