(ThyBlackMan.com) I was a bit taken back by this article. In my pondering over the points of the psychological diagnosis spewed by this brother, it resonated with me, that the seemingly endless depth of sickness we suffer, as a people, infects the root at an even deeper layer. It infects our community at the core, and it affects our daily lives in regards to our relationships to one another, and the effects of this rotting root controls what we choose not to see around us presently, but moreover, our refusal to acknowledge our role as silent contributors in the cycle of generational genocide.

As one of history’s greatest writers, James Baldwin, would describe the role of a writer worth their weight; is their contributing their gift to our world via The Arts. He compared the writer to the painter: The painter has the responsibility of creating a painting, one brush stroke at a time, until the blank canvas reveals the image the painter imagined in his mind. But, as a writer, we have the responsibility of penning words, syllable-by-syllable, to blank pages, until we have created a story which, hopefully, makes a point, or causes a thought, or, most importantly, moves the audience. As writers, our words are gifts to society.

Now with this great gift, and the responsibility of carrying this gift, we must pause from time to time and ask ourselves, what message are we relaying to our people through our penning?

I authored the article, “” on this site. For those who read it, hopefully, you understood my point to be, as sisters, we need to stand up for our brothers, try to understand their struggles, become their helpmates, and to tame our tongues against negativity towards our brothers. It’s a part of our responsibility to our community, and we must heed in taking on this role for the sake of our children and our future.
