The Honesty Project/365

I am educated, articulate, black and broke in Florida. How did I get to this position, in country where I was born, where my forefathers were slaves and help to build this country?

This is a project that I have decided to undergo for the love of all, especially Black people. I have decided that I can be silent no longer so I am compelled to share my most itimate thoughts of what I witness as "Black people's condition in my life and community at large. I am a Black female who is not proud of my race at all, and I need to share why with you. I was not sure who I should share my thoughts with because I felf like I did not want to offend anyone. But Black people are offended daily. I did not want to embarras anyone but I am embarrassed of what the Black people as a whole have become. Embarrassed by what you may ask? This blog is an attempt to answer this and other poignant questions and share my most detailed and intimate thoughts. I will share with you how a black educated female, with "degrees", behind my name, came to this position. I will not withhold any truths. But instead I share my heart with you.

I encourage feedback. Please feel free to be as open and honest with me as I am with you. The time is now for what I have labelled "The Honesty Project". Will you take this journey with me? I will blog daily for one year (365) giving you keen insight into black life, "emperor with no clothes", as I like to refer to it.
