Who Should Young African-Americans Vote For locally?

Comming This Thursday: KMT's Poitical Picks For Young African-Americans Who Want To Empower Grassroots Efforts!

All Poor Blacks Left Behind Act 2002

KMT is concerned whether or not schools are blocking tutors for the poor. I'm no Roy Ann Moore but I do know that under law, free help supposed to be available for kids. Furthermore; we don't have to be advocates to see what's going on. Low-income parents are supposed to get a free tutor for any child who goes to a school that gets federal poverty aid but has not made steady progress for three straight years. KMT would like to see teachers and politicians stop talking about education and provide some figures. Many times speeches, reports and pleas about education is made with no stats to let us know where we stand. Many local parents would be shocked to learn that they also get to pick the tutor they want-even a private on from a state list. Maybe giving the parents this much decision making is too much for some educators to stomach. This is wrong because only 11% of eligible children, or 226,000 out of nearly 2 million that qualify received tutoring in the 2004 school year. Because data collection is not always strong we must be concerned with the local effort to tutor the poor. Millions of eligible students aren't getting the services and this is wrong. The central pledge of the 2002 No Child Left Behind Act is a joke and empty words in the form of pledges. The low numbers of tutored students are not because of lack of interest but because some schools make getting help nearly impossible for these poor families. We should look the these three things: 1. Publicity that is so filled with jargon that parents don't understand it. 2. Registration held in the middle of the work day when most poor parents are working. 3. Difficulties for tutors to get some space inside schools, or even for them to talk directly to teachers. Let's see how we can how we can uplift our the poor by using all educational tools available.

Grassroots Martyrdom

We search for grassroots martydom. It is our destiny to make a great sacrifice to advance the grassroots cause. The grassroots cause is for the common man. This is the man who doesn't have someone who will lift them out of despair. In this race to the finish line we accept nothing less than a full disclosure of what the people without a voice want to say. If you don't know what they have to say then you have got beside yourself yourself. Since you've gotten beside yourself KMT demands that you tell yourself to get out of your on way! It's totally ridiculous for us to be holding onto leadership that we know is past its course. In this last day and age KMT refuses to deny, smile in the face of, white wash, uphold and speak for failed leadership! This is a mad dash for the political finish line and we've outpaced the competition. It's GRASSROOTS FOR LIFE!

Even If It Kills Me

Coming from the grassroots we feel threatened at all times. We shrug off all types of threats. We know some people have been enjoying their status without criticism. Well all that is over as we race to the finish line. As we approach the finish line we can tell you that We've seen it all. We've got family and friends in the state pen that's never going to see the light of day. My people and their people would've got them the Cochran Firm if our money was right. Don't worry KMT is going to hold them down and teach a new generation. KMT is serious, focused and it's way over due that we speak up. We're all trying to be here to see our seeds when they have their seeds. As long as KMT is out there the movement still breathes! KMT knows that there's in the world that they can't be. Many years we as a people slipped up and didn't cast our vote. Our grassroots work is an art and we're better than smart. The reason is that we uplift with a style that wasn't taught by some uncle tom. KMT goes after evil corrupt people. Albert Einstein whose teachers had written him off as a failure said it best: "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil but because of the people who fail to do anything about it." KMT vows to do something about it and the something we do is unstoppable. Even if it kills us we're going to write or die. On this course we're set for a collision with sellouts. The empowering we do threatens their way of making under the table deals to sell poor people out. We're qualified to analyze and trained ourselves as relentless grassroots activists racing toward the finish line. When we mention helping the grassroots some say that it's dangerous and say that we should be trying to get any seat at the table. KMT is about sit the grassroots at the head of the table or there's going to be a political food fight unless we're at the head of the table. The movement that KMT has started will not be easily terminated and it's foolish to think or try it! These unlce toms and racist will only move on you if they know what your weaknesses is and KMT has NONE!

The Truth That BRAC Should Know.

With all the city of Huntsville officials talking up Huntsville's good qualities blacks have got to wonder. The mayor Lorretta Spencer is the head of this dangerous snake of prejudice and unfairness. Newcommers especially blacks should note the comments the mayor made about a so called black leader. The mayor of Huntsville is an example of what's wrong with this state. The problem is that racism still exits and we as blacks and also the incoming blacks should remember what the mayor said about a black person who stood up to her. It should also be noted that this isn't the first racial outburst from her. I know that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover but when I see her in person or on T.V. I see a racist plain and simple. All Richard Showers did was make that boil to the surface. Blacks have dealt with racism for a long time and we know a racist when we see one! You see it in her face. Racial hate is hard to hide in ones face. The souls of black folks can detect the facial expressions of white racism and I think that most whites don't realize it's so obvious to us. When she made her statement and it became public and it was an out cry she did what all racist do, she ran to our churches. That attempt was a failure for two reasons: 1. She did it to win support from these uncle tom pastors 2. God knows her heart.

Commissioner Robert "Bob" Harrison Should Step Down

The current Commissioner should step down from his position since he has used it to fatten his and others pocket. He should be forced to pay back the public that he swindled out of thousands of dollars. When will African-American leaders in Huntsville wake the hell up and take a stand? They seem to all be in circle of power elite who want to control the black masses. Yes the have controlled the black masses in Huntsville, Alabama. The know nothing about inspiring leaders because they want to the only one who deals with the white power structure. Our people have become so power hungry that they seem to be nothing but information hogs. I see this with Richard Showers and Bob Harrison. It was really bad under Prince Preyer. Once again Laura Hall was unchallenged. This was a tragedy because her leadership in Montgomery. Alabama is a laughing stock and she has no real issues. The only reason she is down there making an ass of herself is because we as African-Americans can't see beyond the same ole tired leadership. This is hurting the future of children. It's time for Huntsville to go through a political revolution. In this revolution we must decide to move on these ineffective leaders and empower new young African-Americans and stop the practice of smothering out new voices. The old power structure feels threatened because they're nothing but tokens of the system. I challenge any of these politicians to debate the true facts concerning their leadership. These token leaders settle for token gains because they themselves are nothing but token leaders themselves!
