came to mind when reading this. This sentiment is unfortunately in equal footing, I know many a brother who live by and attempt to spread the ideas of Malcom, Martin, Marcus, Amiri and such...but act like straight dogs (and this is not personal, i'm talking about college buddies, co-workers etc.) when it comes to women. It can be quite perplexing to deal with at times, expecially when this type of behavior comes from generally good men.
As I said before, Dead Prez groupies come to mind because this behavior is found amongst women as well. I know quite a few sistas that get down just as dirty as some men behind closed doors, yet claim to be as righteous as the Virgin Mary herself.
just a thought.....
Yesterday I was thinking about the whole idea of genius and creative people, and the notion that if you create some magical art, somehow that exempts you from having to pay attention to the small things. – bell hooks
