4 days in April

Our generation has no identity. Our identity is marketed to us. That angers me. I will change this. I am our generation's unsought propoaganda.

I am working on a play about the 1968 DC riots.

I have been doing research at MLK Library and reviewing old Evening Star and Post papers from April of 1968. This play will strike a cord here and across the country.

We have forgot. We have turned a blind eye and we have put our hands over our ears. The screams are coming from the streets. America eats its babies. We can not forget this.

I will stand alone until the world begins to join me and act and clean up this mess that has been made by the complacent fat cats who thinks its all good in the neighborhood. Its raw out here and this play will be raw.

If it does not go to Broadway, it will be their lose and continue to showcase the elitism that rules this country and imposes their cultural imperialism on our society

I have recently discovered some audio from WPGC from the days of the riots. These are important discoveries.

Also, I will begin reading books that deal with the DC riots.

Also, I found out about the Kerner Commission. I will have to do more research.
