Come on People

Come on People: On the Path from Victims to Victors

By Bill Cosby and Alvin F. Poussant
published by Thomas Nelson
Nashville, TN
copyright 1994

Read this book.
This book begins with vintage Cosby discussing whether or not he is black enough to talk about this topic. Most of the book is pretty good. There is however no discussion of the topic of abortion.
This is an important topic in relation to the subject covered due to several factors. First in 2005 there were more black babies aborted than born. Second, many of the health risks that Cosby talks about are also linked to women who have had abortions.
Many of Cosby's solutions are good and at least desire a look and some serious thought.

America and the World

America and the World

By Zbignew Brzezinski, Brent Scowcroft, and David Ignatius
published by Basic Books
New York, NY
copyright 2008

This is a What to Read if you want insight into why our foreign policy is messed and why we are losing our sovereignty.


This book is an interesting discussion between a Republican and a Democrat national security adviser. The key to the fact that they are both anti-American scumbags is found on page 247. Sowcroft says, "Let the fact that we have to make some concessions on sovereignty sink in gradually. Don't put that our front." Brzezinski answers, "Absolutely." They are saying hide the fact that we must give up or sovereignty to accomplish what we are talking about. On page 250 Brzezinski says "it's dignity, not freedom, that people around the world...really seek. But I ask can you truly have dignity without being free?
