Once, I was told man was an object of hate...religion and state laws based on the existence of a God(or gods) were put forth from the beginning of time to put societies in check.
However, man with time has so intelligently twisted the hate to counter its opponents...legislation, religious preachings, family upbringings, the media, the educational system, all and all have been used to fuel man's hate for a certain set of people.
It's shameful that men would treat savage animals like humans and vice-versa in some parts of the world.
This blog is not to account myself as a person who does not hate. Hate (in the more serious sense of things) is innate. The ability to rise above hatred is what defines the great ones among us.
This blog is basically to reflect on the inconsistencies of the human society as we see it now especially hate as we see it.
I truly believe in MLK's dream of seeing people beyond their appearance but on their character. I learned that the hard way as a young naive 17 year old arriving the shores of the United States who had to learn the ways of the world alone but refused to be changed by the world but reflect and do something about it.
Hatred in itself is illogical, as human beings with brains, I believe we should all open our minds and examine ourselves and rise above the evil and hate that is bred within us.
Now, it's OK for you to disagree with some of the ideas I have or some of the things I have to say...but one thing I might not tolerate is prideful ignorance and utter disrespect. I can be a very verbal person, and frankly I couldn't give two hoots and a (pardon my dutch) f**k if you decide to hate me. Walk on the street and when you see me, act like you don't know me, and I personally would not care.
Oh...the other contributor to this blog is the Mastermind aka Desta Anyiwo, he's a Nigerian-American based in Maryland. If you wish to contribute to this blog as well, try and get in contact with me. I am trying to de-monopolise this blog and give everyone a chance to air their own views constructively.
Thanks for reading this and I hope you enjoy this blog.

The Dream, The Seed.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."~MLK Jr.
"Dreams are the seeds of change. Nothing ever grows without a seed, and nothing ever changes without a dream."~Debby Boone
