					<description>Russle, 
 My name is Edi, for some crazy reason I was up at 2:30 am and caught the A&#38;E school house class? Here is a project I designed while studing Psychology in college I named it C.H.E.E.C.A(CHILDRENS HIGHER EDUCATION CULTURE AWARENESS) I named it for that was the favorite choiced word our Psychology Teacher Ms. Maria E.Lopez Moreno called the female students. This woman has the heart of the people buy she led me on a journey of recovery. While under going the treatment for Hep-C I was able to carry a full 12 units (B  average) work 20 as a outreach cordinator for a non-profit org. and be in a wheel chair due to a ruptured achilies tendon. The important part here is this woman who was mentored under Cizar Chavez' was the inspiration of the program. This program brings the "elderly" of the communities, with their much needed cultural understanding to all the underprivilaged children(welfare resicipients are manditory after school help programs) to utilize the culture differences for every day living. The value of our elderly is going to waste our history is destined to be repeated if we don't know what we are about, but to incorporate your history into mine will be a wonderful change . Heck I don't know what I am other than a character who loves people old young alike we NEED them all of every ethnic and sosial economical back grounds I just don't have the resources for it I sort of like the back ground any way. Unless I'm clowning it up but thanks for every thing you're family is doing . Edi if the spellings way off forgive me it's like 5am</description>

					<description>I fully support the decision to cancell the show.  Its about time we clean up our own back yard before we demand others clean up theirs or ours.

Russell Simmons always mention rappers rap about what they see.  Well now they can rap about how good people are taking a stand about decency. (hopefully the rappers see this).  Do rappers have tunnel vision, is all they see is crime and all they hear is filth.  What happen to their mothers', didn't they raise these rappers with bettter morals, or really, are they just blind to decency.???</description>

					<description>I hope that the churches kicked in to raise the money for these kids who were trying to go to Africa, and I hope that the next step these "morality vigilante's" take is to march on Prince or the Artist formerly known as Prince for his "lyrics" you will find his lyrics to be less than "clean". 

He has used the "N" word and called women bitches and whores...but that's okay right??? It's even okay that he dedicated a song completely to incest and doing his sister, it's okay that he has more than one song about oral sex...

Oh, but he doesn't sing those songs anymore....oh really? well not in public anyways! And we certainly gave him over 20 years to grow and mature beyond humping the stage!!!

Bush knew what he was doing when he created "Faith based" funding to churches, they are all on his payroll now and willing to attack their own youth instead of building a bridge of understanding.

This is really getting ridiculous!!!!</description>

					<description>Well after 20 plus years of tolerating the nonsense of rappers poisoning the minds of our black youth with imageries of gangsterism, violence, denigration of women, etc. its good to see that church people can do more than just sit back, do nothing except benefit from the efforts of others who roll up their sleeves and are always fighting for the self-respect, pride, dignity and honor of black Americans.

For far too long your silence and activity concerning the fate and destiny of our youth and community has been stuck on doing nothing.  For far too long we have allowed the antics of rappers to poison the minds of our youth and not say a single solitary thing about it.  Kudos to Jere Eaton, for standing up taking control of your own destiny, instead of hiding behind the cloak of God as an excuse to sit back and be sycophants, watching and saying nothing as the likes of some rappers drags our community down the gutter.

WELL DONE Jere Eaton and the rest of you church members for finally taking a stand against indecency and self-debasement.</description>

					<description>This is a "self-destruct" move by political opportunists, whom we call politicians or our representatives.
Noone has sufficient funds to supprot this effort. Therefore, it is a diliberate act of treason, in my view. There must be a better answer to help Mexico without stealing from the U.S. taxpayers.</description>

					<description>Liberals are a bunch of morons. I don't believe Google for one minute, either.  They are as bias as they come.  For the idiot, Benedict, who posted that Clinton was a "good" president, but maybe not the "best" man:  Your mentality is typical of an ignorant boob who has no capacity to follow logic. You are victim of TV and probably don't get out or read much.  A good president is also a man of character, you stupid ass.  Of course everyone has failures in judgement and nobody is perfect.  It's how you REACT to those failures that shows your inner being.  Clinton is a scum bag.  Period.  He showed the world that is own ass is more important than his own family or country.  His reckless behavior put us all in danger because there's an opportunity for him to be BLACK MAILED.  This puts our security in jeopardy you stupid idiot.  This is not a good president.</description>

					<description>Russle Simmons, as many others have stated, is pretencious and self serving.  Hip-Hop started as a voice for the underdog, it was a raw form, a folk art, taking little resourse and turning into gold. intellectual gold that is, not this bling, bling garbage that being peddled. hip hop is now a slap in the face of poor people, throwing money in the air and hawking clothing thats rediculusly over priced.  Russle Simmons embraces all that is shamefull about Eurocentric culture including the phony "it's all love" defense. An "Uncle Tom" is not a black man who doesn't speak ebonics or wears clothing that fit him, but one who sells out his own people for a buck.</description>
