Hey Folks,

You know, they say it's not good to talk about politics or religion at a party.

I'm trying to figure out who "they" are.

Y'see, instead of getting angry, if we had normalized and civilized discussions about political and religious issues in relaxed and convivial settings, such as at parties or at work, then we could probably figure a few things out. Like others I have on occasion, and found them to be some of the most passionate and engaging exchanges of the day.

In our busy and worried world, it seems we each learn a half-dozen important things per-week to trade with each other. If we traded our tiny fragments of the perpetual puzzle often enough, and respected our interest and intent in doing so, then maybe, just maybe, we'd figure it out.

I have the lyrics to the attached songs (side A and B) below my signature, and they're dedicated to all the activists out there who are active for - you guessed it - us.

They give us the information and inspiration to find the dedication to improve our situation; and on the anniversary of our great nation it makes sense to admire their persuasion. They don't get enough love, and without them we wouldn't have equal rights, civil rights, property rights, labor laws, environmental laws, freedom of speech, etc. And because they're not getting enough love, we're losing our equal rights, civil rights, property rights, labor laws, environmental laws, freedom of speech, etc.

Feel free to pass them on, and If you want to use them to help Save The World in any way at all, please let us know.

We believe in the "big tent" party approach, so you don't have to be exclusively "conscious" or "politically conscious" in many of the ways that are "sold" (i.e. given major credibility and publicity) to divide and conquor us. There is no Right and Left; only right and wrong. We all have our own situations and desires and needs and interests and ways of letting our own uniqueness shine through as a bright light exposing the flaws of conformity. So, that'll do.

About 10,000 people trying to screw the rest of us 6 billion, so the issues of "taste" many arguments boil down to are just a trap to keep us as tribal and distrustful as possible. You can have these songs and others for your movies, shows, websites, events, rallies, videogames, conferences, tupperware parties, comic conventions, slumber parties, strip-clubs, seances, orgies... whatever.

Just let us know your freedom of expression and we'll flip you permission.

It's cool, if we work on it we'll get a solid global course correction soon enough, I mean really, all we have to do is aim for "Star Trek" and we'll be fine...

(Personally I can't wait to go "pop" and then retire, so I'm in a bit of a hurry...)

Have a great long weekend everybody! ;-)

Cheers,
BK

Congress is pushing a law that would abandon the Internet's First Amendment -- a principle called Network Neutrality that prevents companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast from deciding which Web sites work best for you -- based on what site pays them the most. If the public doesn't speak up now, our elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying campaign.

"The Most Dangerous Man In The World Is A Brown Guy With A Backpack - Coming Soon To A Theatre Of War For Your Mind Near You!"


...Activist Street Single Sneak Preview...



(...)



SIDE A:



(Intro)


Yo...

It's on...

Yeah...


(flip it up)


C'mon everybody!

It's time to celebrate!

We know what's going on!

And we ain't gonna let it last long!

Yeah!

C'mon! C'mon! C'mon!

Black Krishna and TyGuy Productions!

C'mon! C'mon!

Yeah!

I see Nazi's, Nazi's, everywhere,
Don't tell me what to wear,
Or how to wear my hair,
If you don't dare share?
Or dare to stare and care?
Then you a Nazi,
You probably wasn't even aware!
I mean, how did you buy?
The Big Scare?
When most of the Middle-East?
Wants to send their kids here?
For a college education,
And a lifestyle change,
Coming back with blue jeans,
And a brand new Range,
So outta the way!
Ya slowin' down the fast lane of progress,
Keep gettin' it messed,
We'll never get to the projects!
My messianic complex,
Is coming back with context,
Now it's no contest,
I'm calm, they' stressed...


(chorus)

Nazi's, Nazi's, everywhere,
Don't tell me what to wear,
Or how to wear my hair,
If you don't dare share?
Or dare to stare and care?
Then you a Nazi,
You probably wasn't even aware!

(x2)


Ohhh...

I'll never say that again...

Ohhh...


Then again...

Why not?


See, back in the day,
When they thought, we had a way,
They spent all day,
Pointing us, the other way,
And everyone who say,
That it's gotta be this way,
Has gotta be dismayed,
When they see who's gettin' paid,
Who's lurkin' in the shade,
As "The Money Masters" made,
A killing off the Nazi's'n'Commies'n'weapons grade,
Now we steppin' to the plate with weapons home-made,
And we reppin' it for freedom in every single way,
And every single day we gotta say we're okay,
A mother-sister-father-brother tryin' to make it their way...

You's a mother-sister-father-brother tryin' to make it yo' way...


(chorus)

Nazi's, Nazi's, everywhere,
Don't tell me what to wear,
Or how to wear my hair,
If you don't dare share?
Or dare to stare and care?
Then you a Nazi,
You probably wasn't even aware!

(x2)


Nazi's....

Nazi's...

Beware...


Nazi's...

Nazi's...

Beware...


I can see you over there/over here,
I overhear convos,
Overhear-fear, like-you-facin' Shaq and Alonzo,
My flow is so Gonzo,
Like Hunter S. Thom, so fear is what I loath,
I'd rather know, who bombed those,
Towers, that fell, so easily,
While the government, acted, so sleazily,
What's keepin' it real to me,
Is having the guts to admit:
Since they torture people,
We're in some deep...
Sit back and relax,
The media's got the facts,
But they're ignoring the Left,
Like they're ignoring the Blacks,
That's why I write my little raps,
To get us out of Iraq,
So don't act like a Nazi,
'Cause they're already back...


(chorus)

Nazi's, Nazi's, everywhere,
Don't tell me what to wear,
Or how to wear my hair,
If you don't dare share?
Or dare to stare and care?
Then you a Nazi,
You probably wasn't even aware!

(x2)


Outro:


"But if I talk about Nazi's?
My record won't get played?
Huh???
Well, if this take away from my spins,
Which will probably take away from my ends,
Then I hope this take away from my sins,
And bring the day,
That I'm dreaming 'bout,
Next time I'm in the club,
Everybody screaming out -- "

SIDE B:



I was just a -

(beat drops)

Bayou Boy,
Raised as soldier,
Had to get colder,
Dad was barely older,
Bolder than my brother,
So clever, joined the Guard,
Wasn't really that hard,
But it's that, or the yard,
Now a weekend's turned to weeks,
Now New Orlean's reeks,
Now normal people are lookin' like freaks,
Play hide and seek with the bodies,
Politicians, paparazzi,
Was a Superdome Nazi,
Tried to play it like it's Yahtzee,
They say we need peace,
But they fired the police,
Now soldiers say desist, and cease,
Or get deceased,
I'm on my knees,
Every night,
I wanna fight for what's right,
But I'm staring at my city,
Underwater every night,
And Blackwater rises,
When a crackhead in sight,
Pop-pop!
From over there,
He was puttin' up a fight,
I ain't shuttin' up tonite,
Gotta knuckle-up and fight,
But if I stick my neck out,
They'll pull a Tech out tonite,
I put my check out of sight,
Can't stand the Blood Money,
Can't stand to see my blood run from me,
A Bayou Boy, now a Bayou Man,

I need to take a stand,

And that's why I ran...


(chorus)

Prayer for New Orleans,
The fallen, the calling,
Prayer,
For the Chocolate City,
To start balling,

Prayer for the Devil's,
Dreamin' of the next date,
With fate, we relate,
Can we say police state?

(x2)

Say a prayer for New Orleans...

(x2)


I'm on the run now,,
Having fun now,,
Got a gun now,,
Let's see who run now...
But they' grabbin' guns,
Left, Right, and Center,
Homeowners and renters,
Store owners, dissenters,
My score only a slender,
Glock-9, all mine,
Feelin' fine,
If I gotta jack a bread line,
I gotta get mine,
Get food,
Get a home, get shelter,
The world's helter skelter,
The cards that were dealt were,
A four-leaf clover,
In a Range Rover,
Soldiers sayin': "Chill out man - the war is over!"
Hope I'm sober,
I'm on my own, and I'm scared,
'Cause Uncle Sam, really seems mad, when he stared,

I Dared to Dream, like Martin once said,

Now I'm scared to dream, or I'll wind up dead...


(chorus)

Prayer for New Orleans,
The fallen, the calling,
Prayer,
For the Chocolate City,
To start balling,

Prayer for the Devil's,
Dreamin' of the next date,
With fate, we relate,
Can we say police state?

(x2)

Say a prayer for New Orleans...

(x2)


Ah, found me a toolshed, a place to nap,
I guess this is where, I should check out my map,
Let's see, Checkpoint A, and Checkpoint B,
And I seem to recall, Checkpoints C and D,
Looks like nowhere's free, and I'm'a die in hell,
And New Orleans, is one big jail...


(chorus)

Prayer for New Orleans,
The fallen, the calling,
Prayer,
For the Chocolate City,
To start balling,

Prayer for the Devil's,
Dreamin' of the next date,
With fate, we relate,
Can we say police state?

(x2)

Say a prayer for New Orleans...

(x2)

A biography of the life of Frederick Douglass by Sandra Thomas

Frederick Douglass was one of the foremost leaders of the abolitionist movement, which fought to end slavery within the United States in the decades prior to the Civil War.

A brilliant speaker, Douglass was asked by the American Anti-Slavery Society to engage in a tour of lectures, and so became recognized as one of America's first great black speakers. He won world fame when his autobiography was publicized in 1845. Two years later he bagan publishing an antislavery paper called the North Star.

Douglass served as an adviser to President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War and fought for the adoption of constitutional amendments that guaranteed voting rights and other civil liberties for blacks. Douglass provided a powerful voice for human rights during this period of American history and is still revered today for his contributions against racial injustice.
