Africans had towards cultivating Western Civilization?

Examining the percentage arguments that white supremacists use to criminalize blacks.
Posted by saye on Monday, August 15, 2016,

The percentage arguments that white supremacists use to criminalize blacks using crime data is old but powerful propaganda.
For Example, the 2014 FBI CRIME data says blacks are responsible for 58.9% of Gambling Crimes.
What the White nationalists and White supremacists fail to tell you is that there were ONLY 4,363 Gambling crimes listed, and that blacks were responsible for 2,568 of those crimes.
When you put into Context that Blacks represent around 38,929,319 of the total population (13%) a...

guilty of crimes or not. Black Lives Matter
Nathaniel
(the suspected white nationalist sympathizer):
Why don’t you care about the high black on black crime. Look at the high Chicago
crime rate. Also, blacks are dangerous. They are only 13% of the population,
yet they are responsible for 51% of the murders and violent crimes. Do...

What is Social Entrepreneurship
Posted by saye on Tuesday, July 26, 2016,
View Larger ImageI’m often asked why I advocate for social entrepreneurship
and why it is so important to me. I find social entrepreneurship important on
many levels because it has the potential to be the stepping-stone, which
convinces people to eventually start embracing the concept of a resource, based
economy, over the current monetary system. I see those who chose to become
social entrepreneurs as conscious minded people who care about humanity and who
are willing to break away from a...

Example of the 1up Entertainment business strategy, broken down into its simplest form

Five individuals live in the Washington D.C. area.
Mike has just opened a brand new restaurant and business is really slow. He does not have money to launch a marketing campaign, and he knows he needs some form of revenue to start paying the rent on his new building. He’s contacted a web designer, but the cost of the website digs into his electric bill, which is more important for now. The web designer is also responsible for doing the first wave of promotional print materials. He needs to ...

Martin Luther King Jr. Message to White America (Laws vs Sacrifices)
Posted by saye on Friday, July 4, 2014,

Why is equality so assiduously avoided? Why does white America
delude itself, and how does it rationalize the evil it retains?
The majority of white Americans consider themselves
sincerely committed to justice for the Negro. They believe that American
society is essentially hospitable to fair play and to steady growth toward a
middle-class Utopia embodying racial harmony. But unfortunately this is a
fantasy of self-deception and comfortable vanity. Overwhelmingly America is
still struggling ...

Martin Luther King Jr. Views of America's Forefathers
Posted by saye on Monday, June 30, 2014,

Virtually all of the Founding Fathers of our nation, even those who rose to the heights of the presidency, those whom we cherish as our authentic heroes, were so enmeshed in the ethos of slavery and white supremacy that not one ever emerged with a clear, unambiguous stand on Negro rights. No human being is perfect. In our individual and collective lives every expression of greatness is followed, not by a period symbolizing completeness, but by a comma implying partialness. Following every ... Continue reading ...
Martin Luther King Jr. made a great argument for Black Americans to gain reparations from America in his final literary work
Posted by saye on Tuesday, May 27, 2014,
Martin Luther King Jr. made a great argument for Black
Americans to gain reparations from America in his final literary work.

“But underneath, the ambivalence of white America toward the
Negro still lurked with painful persistence.
With all the beautiful promise that Douglass saw in the Emancipation
Proclamation, he too found that it left the Negro with only abstract
freedom. Four million newly liberated
slaves found themselves with no bread to eat, no land to cultivate, no shelter
to co...

Alberta and Alfred King, Taking MLK's Consciousness Further
Posted by saye on Tuesday, December 10, 2013,

Over the years, the study of Dr. Martin Luther King’s life has been very influential as to how I view the world in which I live. I will not bore you with the general history of what people are usually taught about Dr. King and his struggle for human and civil rights, but I would like to reveal some very important information that will forever change how you look at the world in which we live. In my quest for seeking truth, and consciousness, I came across some information that further enlig...

Dr. Martin Luther Kings Speech, Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence
Posted by saye on Tuesday, December 10, 2013,

Many of you are familiar with Dr. Kings Speech "I have A Dream." As a person who likes to think critically, I often find myself researching and looking for information to evaluate and o learn from. Inspired by the "I have A Dream" speech, I became interested in what else he had said in his other speeches, so I began my quest to find and listen to as many of his old speeches as possible. During my research, I came across a speech that was delivered years after the "I have A Dream Speech". This...

1up Black History of Freedom Fighters, Part I
Posted by saye on Thursday, February 21, 2013,
As
a freedom fighter who promotes the importance of social entrepreneurship and
critical thinking, it has come to my attention that many young black men and
women living in America are limited in their knowledge of the struggles of
their forefathers, whom fought, and put their lives on the line, for freedom
and liberation. I am inspired to write a literary work, which provides
information about organizations and individuals often overlooked, despite their
struggles and contribution towards t...

As a

misinformation, useless information, contradictions, and baseless opinions on
the television, in the newspapers, and the classroom books. No elders held my
hands and taught me the value of thinking critically, and other techniques, in
which to improve how I examined the world around me. There was no knowledge ...

What is the 1up Movement, and 1up Entertainment?
Posted by saye on Tuesday, November 22, 2011,
The idea of the 1up movement is for individuals and organizations, to
collaborate, to enhance economic and social conditions, using a process of
social entrepreneurship, while maximizing critical thinking techniques. The 1up movement only exists when there is a
conscious effort, or collaboration, of organizations and individuals putting
words into action. Its very essence stems from the combining and sharing of
knowledge and resources, all used in a positive way to enhance the economic and...

Ten Alarming Issues Within Society
Posted by saye on Tuesday, November 22, 2011,
Below is a list of ten alarming issues that I feel society needs to address and take more seriously. This list by no means eliminates many of the other serious issues going on in society, it just happens to be the ones that have caught my attention for some time now.
1) It’s more expensive to purchase food and gas in low income, and urban communities, compared to wealthier, suburban locations. The idea that people can set up shop in low income communities, knowing that there are lim...

whom are interested in being involved with the 1up Movement.

There is absolutely no room for fear

Trust has to be earned

Let's Redefine Who's The Best Rapper

With
all due respect to the children, and mother, of the late Christopher Wallace,
why are we embracing or celebrating the fact that many agree with the idea that
Biggie was one of the best, or most influential rappers ever. If this is true, then the message of
MLK, Malcolm X, and the Original Black Panther Party has been lost. This is no attack against the late
Wallace, as a person, but most of his music spoke of selling drugs, violence,

Don’t pledge allegiance to a flag, a flag is but a cloth to me.
You tell me that the flag I see, means freedom, one in unity.
You tell me no place will I find, the liberty with which I seek.
Say if I can’t salute this flag, then find another place to sleep.
But listen closely to my words, and heed the message I reveal.
Allegiance that I pledge is real, no symbolism gives me thrill.
A country is but made of men, and mostly men will disagree.

Six Simple Solutions To American Politics
Posted by saye on Wednesday, September 28, 2011,

Over Population of American Jails
Jails should only be owned, and run, by the state. No state, or individual should be able
to make a profit from the creation of a jail or prison. Wages earned by inmates should be the
same as the minimum wage rendered within the state in which the jail , or
prison, is located. If inmates
have children, some of the monies, earned from their labor, should go to their
children to aid for their living expenses.
For individuals who will be released in the f...

Rap Music Manifesto
Posted by saye on Sunday, September 25, 2011,

Overview
We respectfully demand more from those artists who claim to represent our communities, while they promote violence, guns, sex, drugs and alcohol consumption. As an artist, I also was guilty of sometimes rhyming about such issues, so I am not just pointing the finger, trying to bad-mouth others. Let’s make no mistakes here: I am sure some artists give back to their communities annually, and many of their efforts are never highlighted by the media. Despite all of that, many artists st...

Dedication To Critical Thinking
by Saye Taryor
In your constant search for knowledge, many claims will cross
your path. Critical thinking involves how you decide which claims to be
true, false, or if you should suspend judgment on the claim. Critical
thinkers understand the difference between facts and opinions and are more
likely to focus on a specific issue, as a result, coming to a most reasonable
conclusion based on all the available information.
Critical thinkers understan...

The Idea Of Examining Our Own Views
Posted by Saye Taryor on Saturday, April 17, 2010,
"The fool who knows his foolishness is wise at least so far. But a fool who thinks himself wise, he is called a fool indeed." I admit, there is much I do not know. See, most individuals see the world in either Black or white. They rarely accept the fact that gray areas may exist, meaning that sometimes there is no clear-cut solution, or that both conflicting explanations may be true. The concept of accepting two realities, or multiple explanations that may sound conflictual in nature is neve... Continue reading ...
