Colin Kaepernick is an American patriot. We all should be sick of these ignorant individuals, right-wing anti-liberal propagandists. Manipulating the patriotic efforts of our young people to educate the people and make our country a better place. White America must open its eyes. Your heroes are not our heroes. George Washington did not end slavery,…

Published in: SF Bay View, April 29, 2013 Young people… to start you must acknowledge for everything you think you know, there is a great deal you don’t know. That the first pursuit of a man is to acquire knowledge. But until you can discern the real from the fake, true knowledge and the…
Published in: SF Bay View, February 17, 2012 Everywhere I go young people are dying of thirst, starving for truth and guidance, something real they can relate to.

You asked me to tell you what it´s like here. Nothing has changed from the last time I was here, except to get worse. Food There is no such thing as a hot meal here. None of the established laws or rules governing the preparation, etc. are observed, leaving much of the food inedible, unless…
