EVENT ALERT EXTRA: REMEMBER TO BLACK OUT BLACK FRIDAY!!!

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson

Hello All:

Well, we are at ground zero for Thanksgiving 2015.  Today's the day - and the houses will be filled with wonderful aromas of baking turkey, rolls, collard greens, cornbread, sweet potato pies, mac and cheese the way only we can make it.

Today we put on our best and gather with our families and friends to give thanks.  

What a wonderful day this will be.  

I truly hope we all have something to be thankful for and express our appreciation fully.

I also hope that we remember that this is the beginning of the official boycott of Black Friday, and shopping in stores that commercialize Christmas.

By now most of you know that we are trying to make a break between being puppets to a meanstream society that has made  it clear that Black lives don't matter, while Black dollars do.  So we have to send the message that our Black dollars will stay in our pockets as long as we continue to be the main targets and victims of racism, police brutality, disenfranchisement, housing discrimination, medical discrimination, substandard educational practices.

We will no longer line their pockets with our hard earned money. 

Before  you forget - if you don't already have a poster, take a piece of paper and write on it in big bold black letters, I am not participating in Black Friday until Black Lives Really Matter in the US!!

There are thousands of Black merchants and business waiting to fulfill your shopping needs - just look them up.  This calls for discipline and determination.  They want to undermine our resolve, but we have a great deal to gain in the long run if we pull together.

I know that the meanstream media has been trying to squelch this - because it's a threat to the almighty dollar so many of their sponsors depend up on to pay them to keep us dumb - but I'm reminding  you that WE ARE BOYCOTTING BLACK FRIDAY 2015 - NOT ONE RED CENT OUT OF A BLACK POCKET SHOULD GO INTO THEIR POCKETS - WE SHOULD ACTIVELY STAY AT HOME AND REFUSE TO GET SUCKED INTO THE COMMERCIALISM OF PSEUDO BARGAINS FROM THE SAME PEOPLE WHO SPEND THE REST OF THE YEAR DEPRIVING US OF DECENT HOMES, EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE AND QUALITY OF LIFE.

We really need to do more about also distribution of Blessings among ourselves as well - so while we draw away from them, let's begin to draw nigh unto each other and consolidate this statistical wealth we are always talking about into some thing tangible - like buying a million acres to build Black homes and communities in certain neighborhoods. So, if we tie the money we are not going to spend on "Black Friday" and use it to buy ourselves our own communities, start our own stores, schools, police agencies, health centers, I will say we've really done something spectacular - in much the same way Marcus Garvey was able to lead Black people to do 90+ years ago.
That way, we're not just anti them, we are pro ourselves and our families.
Have a Blessed Day of Giving Thanks - Black out Black Friday - put it in the Bank.

Find a wonderful Black business to spend your dollars with.  

THE SAME AMOUNT OF SKILL AND STRATEGY USED TO SCOUT OUT SHOPS AND BARGAINS CAN BE USED TO IDENTIFY THESE BLACK BUSINESSES AND BEGIN TO PATRONIZE THEM.

THE SAME MEANS BY WHICH WE COME TOGETHER TO PARTY OR PUT TOGETHER A RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY CAN BE USED TO DEVELOP A WAY TO TRULY POOL OUR RESOURCES TO PURCHASE PROPERTIES, HOMES THAT CAN BE THE BEGINNING OF A NEW COMMUNITY. IT IS UP TO US - NO ONE ELSE TO MAKE THESE DOLLARS TRULY WORK FOR US.

SO HAVE A HAPPY THANKS GIVING - BE SURE AND GIVE THANKS FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE AND WILL HAVE IF YOU TAKE THE TIME, INTEREST, ENERGY AND INTELLIGENCE TO GET IT TOGETHER.

STAY BLESSED  & 

ECLECTICALLY BLACK
