W.E.B Du Bois say
"Now is the accepted time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season. It is today that our best work can be done and not some future day or future year. It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow. Today is the seed time, now are the hours of work, and tomorrow comes the harvest and the playtime."
Speak

Speak
Everybody rise up, Everybody raise up
Speak
Everybody rise up and break the chain

Booker T Washington says
I shall allow no man to belittle my soul by making me hate him.
I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him. No race can prosper till it learns there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem. Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life, as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.
Speak
Everybody rise up and speak your mind
Speak
Everybody rise up and be heal, not blind
Speak
Everybody rise up cuzz now is the time
Speak
Everybody rise up, Everybody raise up
Speak
Everybody rise up and break the chain
Speak
Everybody rise up if you're sick of the pain
Speak
Everybody rise up cuzz this is the way!
Malcolm X says,
You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who says it
"Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery."
"We declare our right on this earth to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary."
Speak
Everybody rise up and speak your mind
Speak
Everybody rise up and be heal, not blind
Speak
Everybody rise up cuzz now is the time
Speak
Everybody rise up, Everybody raise up
Speak
Everybody rise up and break the chain
Speak
Everybody rise up if you're sick of the pain
Speak
Everybody rise up cuzz this is the way!
Martin Luther the King Jr Say,
A right delayed is a right denied.
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.
Speak your voice now for now is the time to reach your dream, you know you can and we need to educate each other so we all can reach our dream, yes we can.

OAKLAND DEAF CHRUCH!
Last Sunday I thought I had school and had to work but I DIDNT! A friend of mine said well come to church with me today. Few weeks ago I was at my friend house and she look on line and said, "OHHH there's a deaf church in Oakland!" I was like oh really that’s nice.. She said look-see. I was thinking hmm deaf church in Oakland I never heard of this one I remember hearing churches in Fremont, Ca for different deaf church but here in Oakland hmmm so I was a bit curious but really I wasn’t in the mood trying to go to any church. I know every church is different and each church fit for different people if All but again some church had things you need. Some church don't allow praise dance and that ok but I need to do praise dance sometime. I need to dance in praise sometime - I need to shout for joy sometime. I remember when I was little people used to called people who were dancing in joy, "shouting"! He ain't shouting or yelling or speaking he is dancing. BOOOOYY let me tell you something when I think about how my GOD been good to me -............ "I can dance,dance,dance,dance,dance,dance all night!!!!"
Anyway hahahaha!!! OH MAN! I almost jump from this computer started dancing!! I was trying talk about something else hahaha! WHOA! The minute I started thinking about HOW GOD BEEN GOOD TO ME!!! MY GOD BEEN GOOD TO ME! SEE there I go again! .
HOLD a minute! Let me praise GOD for a minute! I gotta say thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you yes yes yes yes yes yes! Thank you.
Sunday I wasn't really into go last Sunday but I made a promise I would go with my friend since it’s her first time too. We trying to look for how to get there since no one is driving that day so we said ok let meet and catch the bus. Service start at 3pm so let get on bus on around 2 something P.M. We look on line 511.org to find out how to get there. It turn out the bus number we were looking for didn't run at all until late night. My Good friend hates being late for anything. I told her "I grew up in a church there such thing as really being late for church until you miss the whole service, Unless you missing part you want to see in church other than that you ain't late." I'm sure other might disagree but I felt we aint late. We saw another bus and asked how do we get to 42nd and Telegraph. Te bus driver look at me crazy ad said Gotta go there, then get off there, then go there, then you get on this bus, then u should be there." I was like ok no problem. Here I am trying clam my friend down we wont be late- Get got to the other stop and then about 15 mins later the bus came it was already pass 3pm getting to the point where my friend was getting really up set. I thinking LORD she gotta go to church and get her to church soon before she blow! 10 mins later the bus came, 10 mins later we arrive at the street, took a while but I think 10 or 15 mins ride. Then later we look for the street it was more far than we thought we were on the other side of where we should be lucky I KNOW OAKLAND... so we walked talked and walked in a good mood - I THANK GOD FOR THAT, then I saw the build like the one she show me on line I said that the church right there!!! I THANK GOD FOR THAT!, then as soon as we walk out an old friend "E" saw me and he was like !!HEY!!! I knew him over 15 years we grew up together and he is deaf and hard of hearing! He welcomes us in I THANK GOD FOR THAT!! I saw other friends I grew up with and knew, about maybe 11 people! wave at them. I THANK GOD FOR THAT, then we my friend and I sat down and notice Church hadn't started yet because they were fixing a few things before they get started so we are NOT LATE!!! AT ALLL LIKE I SAID !! I THANK GOD FOR THAT I'M SURE MY FRIEND WAS SUPER HAPPY ABOUT THAT PART!!
Started off with opening prayer, and that day was for everyone in the church to pray, sing, share story, etc and the pastor sit down and watch. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL services.! So many beautiful song, so many people sharing how GOD been good to them, and yes many were deaf and hard of hearing and yes there were little kids everywhere and yes there were translator, and yes there music playing, and yes there people from Robhert Park who drove all the way just to have church in Oakland with other deaf church and I talk to her after church as she love the church and it was her 1st time too there and it was worth the drive and she said she even got lost but someone told her stop here a church they went in they stay for the whole service. She had a whole big family with her too. At the end of church everyone I mean everyone sang " We have the Victory!!!" For me yes it was Victory for me I was in AWE! We stay for 3 hrs service after church my friend and me went to go EAT!
We talked about how good and beautiful church was that day!! I told the pastor I sure many deaf people don’t realize there a good church here in OAKLAND for deaf people to go to.. I asked if he don’t mind if I tell people on face book- he said GO for it, yes please do for everyone is welcome!!!"
