So I don’t know when I will activate The Press but as of today it’s on the schedule!

Atlanta to Savannah Wrap Up!

2009 June 1
by FreeMan

765375_rawLet’s go! I really enjoyed my trip to Atlanta and actually it was more than I could imagine. Now my trip was about 5 days but I had 3 full days and I went everywhere people told me to go and some places where people told me not to. I stayed in Buckhead near Lenox Mall and I’m glad I did because I needed to be a bit away but a close drive in instead of being in the middle of it, afterall I am a Kali kid and we don’t stay on the street where shit is poppin we like to drive. I was probably happiest because I like being around Black people and being in Atlanta during the weekdays you get to see everyone working and that’s when you get to see the sheer amount of upwardly mobile folk on Peachtree.  I went to every mall you can think about, went to happy hour everyday I was there, went to the W hotel downtown and midtown, went to LA fitness and worked out, got some ghetto hotwings both off of Cascade Rd and on the backside of Stonescrest mall in Lithonia, ate some Crystal Burgers, was disappointed with Chick-Fil-A and didn’t mind the thunderstorms and rain it wasn’t that bad. So for the fluff part of my trip Atlanta it’s a great place to go and even live. Affordable and the crime that went down the week I was there was some ol bullshit robbery shit in Midtown.

Now I have to admit to you when I created the plan I was thinking pure topography just looking at the lay of the land thinking this shit should happen. Now that I have been there and walked around the city it’s even further along than I thought to bring my plan into being. Just on the other side of downtown as you get towards the Underground there is plenty of opportunity to start a whole other side of Atlanta on the Southside. The city doesn’t look like they are trying to help those folk on that side out at all, you want to see Neglect keep taking peachtree through downtown and to the otherside.  The folk out there didn’t seem violent as much as the bad side seemed to be poor and that’s a helluva difference than being violent. Maybe it’s the Compton in me but I didn’t feel too much fear of my surroundings even on the so called bad side of town. The infrastructure of the Southside to the Airport is actually very affordable, the fucking Marta stations are there to provide access, the cargo areas near the airport are set up, and for me all the people in Customs were black as I walked in and talked to them.  If you have never been to the South you would think it’s country but I have been around a bit and it wasn’t anything different from what I’ve seen in Norfolk, Tallahassee, Houston, or even Miami to tell you the truth.

So will the plan work? Hell Yes I even added some new ideas on to the plan after spending the majority of my morning crawling through a lot of streets on the southside and even sometimes in Decatur. My boy who is from my neighborhood has a nice house out in Lithonia confirmed all the shit I was thinking about. He told me compared to the violence we grew up with this is a vacation. He said you see all the brothers and sisters doing stuff and it kind of inspires you to get out there and hustle. He and I were laughing because he didn’t come up with a hustle yet and he said he kind of feels embarrassed that he doesn’t have one. He is a Kappa so he told me where all his frat brothers and young people lived around Midtown up to Buckhead. We did a lot of crawling through bad areas getting out actually touching the dirt to get the feel of the folk. He bottom lined me and said cats out here just are ignorant and he said their education is lacking down here as he volunteers at one of the High Schools off MLK by Morris Brown. He just looked at me and asked me when I was moving here and I told him Money First – Life Second but I told him I would definitely be down there more because I actually just like Atlanta.

Sorry back to the plan!

  1. Step 1 of the plan of a chicken place would work and Atlanta cats love some Chicken Shack hot wing shit. That’s the angle that will work on all sides of the A as I saw trailers in the middle of nowhere with lines of cats for hotwings.
  2. Step 2 – strategic jobs is unnecessary because alot of folk already have those jobs so that part of the plan can be skipped.
  3. Step3 – Radio & TV will fucking work there are a lot of black people on the news and hosting the shit already but since Atlanta is kind of by itself that TV station and radio station can be what KDAY was to LA back in the day kind of the real station for the people. You can go back to some Don Cheadle Talk to me movie stuff in Atlanta because the folk seem to be proud of the city so make something to be proud of.
  4. Step 4 – Black Banks can happen because you have SunTrust, B of A, and Chase with SunTrust seeming to be the most dominant. There are so many black suburbs and the lay of the land is so spread out you can easily make a community bank without actually making people come to it for black purposes. Also, the Southside is fucking wide open, when I say they didn’t do anything down there they seem like they make motherfuckers walk further for the bus.
  5. Step 5 – Boarding Schools – I think the city will fucking give you money to remove the eye sore of what’s going on the soutside. Shit you wouldn’t have to move the school that far out the city as there is plenty of land and truth be told the schools could probably be built in the community. The drug shit is heavy but it’s easily avoidable because of how much land is just laying barron.
  6. Step 6 – Distribution Logistics – Like I thought the southside even from the downtown area has the most old factories as that must’ve been the industrial side of the city. From the Airport Cargo area to the train tracks to I-20 running through that side of town it’s prime land to set up shop. Plus did I say the land is cheap!
  7. Step 7 – Farming and LiveStock – I went down MLK out towards that Cascade skate rink that you see on ATL and kept going. There is so much land surrounding Atlanta man you can cut the cows throat and still hear him mooo on how fresh food can be in Atlanta. I was shocked coming from LA to see so much land with nothing on it just like 10 miles outside of town. They built a lot of houses but they haven’t destroyed all the land.
  8. Step 8 – Healthcare Clinics – Look I’m so positive that this would work on the Southside of Atlanta because cats were literally walking miles to get to the fucking Krogers that you could set up a whole strip mall and make a killing. Like I said it’s spread out but there are black folk behind them trees and they need all kinds of services.

When I thought of my plan I thought shit Atlanta is big and it’s going to be a big fucking feat. Now that I have been there I’ll tell you that about half the city is doing just fucking fine. The educated folk are doing good for theirselves and I don’t think they need anything as they figured this shit out. The real opportunity for the plan to work will be with the Southside of Atlanta from downtown to the airport. A lot of that area is prime area with the right folk to help. Literally Atlanta provides a opportunity to create a Black owned part of the city. The rich areas look exactly like the poor I mean the same basic footprint. Anyone with a organized plan could easily go in and make that side of Atlanta better. Now of course it will cost a lot of money but I mean a directed focus by someone could make a hell of a difference and really control that part of Atlanta. I keep shaking my head back and forth thinking what they got nuclear waste on the Southside or something. That part reminds me so much of being in Compton when I was a kid that I know what a little bit of money can do. Real Talk you could probably create  another bus service on that side of town taking people to the Marta or anywhere because I saw a lot of cats walking.

Solution: I know some of you think this Kali motherfucker is Naive wait til he gets here and see the real Atlanta. Well you might be right but in order for growth to happen you need cats who only see what they can do instead of getting caught up in why they can’t. I was actually excited and encouraged when I left Atlanta. I was kind of in a state of shock because it was so much further along than I imagined. Atlanta has the chance to be the greatest city for Black people to live period in the United States. The housing is affordable, black people are upwardly mobile, black people are on TV, we own restaurants that don’t look like shit, we got money to front, we dress nice and have some class and the biggest thing is we are everywhere. I flew home early sunday morning only thinking to myself how can I get that snack company or chicken place started. Oh yeah I didn’t drive to Savannah I got caught up crawling Atlanta but it was only the cargo area so it wasn’t the main focus.

Look I know this plan seems far fetched because you already doubt that people will help. But, I never said I planned to ask any motherfuckers for help in the first place. I ain’t the Civil Rights kind of guy and I’d much rather we take over than march hand in hand.. There are enough customers aka middle class Black people to buy the product to fund me going out there on some straight businessman shit. There is a whole neglected area that is prime land to grow and anything I do on that side will help black folk because that’s all that is there. Since I ain’t from there all I see is opportunity and cheap land. I ain’t trying to bring LA with me (but I didn’t see too many taco places) but I am bringing the LA hustle with me. What a opportunity to actually build it instead of just hoping to be part of it!  My mission with putting this plan out is for us to see how if we focused on one area instead of being all over the place we can make a place for ourselves where we own everything. Atlanta is that place! I see it and I’m going to build it because I know most people are followers and they will notice things way after the leader has capitalized on it.

So when you see me I won’t be hard to find I’ll be the cat wearing the A from the Angels hat, I ain’t from the A but I can be part of the AA to build it for All of us!

Extra: If you haven’t been through Atlanta its worth the trip. I mean I don’t like that I didn’t see a beach but it’s worth buying a house there and living there. For all the black business people this place is still wide open especially all of us who come from the bottom because I see the opportunity on the poor side. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the black makeup of the city. Sure there are some ignorant folk but where isn’t it some ignorant folks. For all of you with money on the sidelines you have a chance to go to Atlanta and be a big fish in a small pond with a lot of room to grow.  The infrastructure is there to build legacy businesses not just a franchise. Take a trip for yourself and I’ll see you at the top!

Step 8. (Healthcare) Clinics

2009 May 25
by FreeMan

Bobby_Seale_Free_Health_ClinicA lot of the shit that effects us is because of poor health in the first place. We would be a hell of a lot stronger if someone really came and did some preventive care in our neighborhoods. From the Meats we eat to the sweets sold on the streets we are getting killed two ways. The first way is by our poor diet and the second is stress. Preventive medical care like checkups and shit will help us deal with a lot of the ills of this life. I know you think I am talking about motherfuckers coming around like Jehovah Witnesses but really its more simple than that.  See the infrastructure is there it’s just applying game in a more enterprising way….

I know you thought I was going into some STD clinics and handing out free condoms but I’m really talking about health not the health of your penis. Maybe Obama will pass the health care plan to get this shit taken care of but if not let’s plan for it. Sticking with the theme of the plan we need to create neighborhood health clinics. In the building of any Nation it requires us to take care of us. Right now you probably got your mom eating more calcium tablets but if you researched it most weak bone people are white or caucasian. So if we know they are dishing out medicine wiht a one size fits all but we know we have diseases that are specific to us why the fuck would we keep asking them for a diagnosis? We have to build our own health care clinics if we truly intend to address our concerns.

At the same spot where you have a barbershop can be a quick general practitioner who can perform check ups on our folk. If we put the shit in the same strip mall as the supermarket a woman can bring her kids and kill two birds with one stone. If we put a neighborhood dentist next door we can damn near provide all preventive maintenance in our neighborhoods. The good thing abou this is we can get a accurate diagnosis of the problem while you can do something about it before you are rushed to the hospital and they have to amputate your leg. The good thing about this is we can make suggestions for a better diet and insure our children are strong and healthy. The good thing about this is we will have a neighborhood doctor who knows everyone in the community they serve and knows the family history to be on the lookout for hereditary conditions that the big hospital might not see.

Realistically we need our own folks looking at us not from some bullshit medical books but from a true understanding of our diets and our culture. Every time I go in for a checkup I get into a argument with my Indian with a dot doctor who tells me I should weight 188. I keep telling him he must be fucking crazy because I am 6′4 and if I got that small I would have to contract AIDS. I told him I am not a little Indian dude nor a fucking white guy so all this shit that is based off of European body types and swallowed by the rest of the world as correct is bullshit. He asked me what I thought was a good weight and I told him 220 would be good considering I have been lifting weights for 5 years and can bench my current weight. He still told me I need to get under 200 pounds. As usual I asked him how’s my blood pressure and he said fine and my blood work came back without any issues so I considered it a good checkup. Now don’t get it twisted if I had a Black doctor grabbing my nuts telling me I need to get under 200 I would say why but would work harder to do it. Call me racist but I don’t believe these motherfuckers understand that the bullshit scale they go by is not a universal standard. How can a little Japanese dude be on the same scale with a big ass Samoan cat, that shit doesn’t make any sense.

Since I think the doctors are full of shit I started listening to more homeopathic medicine but am kind of weary about it because I don’t want my belly button to turn green. My grandma has some remedies of her own that are from the earth that seem to work also. But since I don’t have a doctor who is Black I am just fucked and keep telling myself to drink water and get lean. My family doesn’t have a history of heart disease or high blood pressure but when I was pushing myself when I opened my business I fainted a couple of times. I don’t know if that shit was from anxiety or a heart attack, but I lean towards anxiety. Either way I am on the job because I don’t want to die over something I could’ve prevented by just walking along the beach for a half hour everyday.

Solution: We can’t afford to keep letting motherfuckers who don’t want to help us diagnose us. They benefit from us not using real methods to cure our ills instead of medicating us with another fucking pill while we are on our last legs. This is the final step in the plan and believe it or not it’s very possible even if the doctors and dentist just worked part time and gave the technicians the heavy lifting to do. We need to get our own doctors to come up with true cures and nutritional guidelines based off of our Black body makeup and conditions. The clinics is the first step in getting things right but it’s not the end of the road for us medically. The goal is to be a self contained unit from the diagnosis to the supply of all the equipment and medicines.

Step 7. (Food) Farming and Livestock

2009 May 18

2I know, I know whenever you see a Black man on a farm you think someone is coming with the whip. I know you think who in their right mind would want to do that kind of work! Ain’t that the reason why we have all those Mexican day laborers because Black folk ain’t pickin shit. I mean if you hear the word pickin you have a slavery flashback and you have now boycotted cotton. Nahhh we don’t have to actually do the labor after we get it set up but we need to take this part of the plan head on. In this game there will always be someone we can buy peaches from but at any time they can raise prices, lock us out, snitch to our competition and STARVE US! Yes, it’s that real as you take for granted a lot of shit just being there and when it’s not you probably just think it ain’t in season. Don’t get it twisted this is a vital part of the plan but it sure is a money maker.

Game recognize game if you grow the food you are going to be well off. I know you see these hippies at your farmer’s market and you think they aren’t making any money trying to make their own jams and shit. But think about it for a second food doesn’t cost that much to grow. I mean some water and some pesticide and just a lot of sweat labor and you’ll have something essential and easily reproducible. The hustle of food is that it’s easily reproducible, it requires no real formal schooling, and if you pick the right crop you will never go out of business. Shit, the government might even pay you to let the shit go foul so it won’t raise the market price. There are a lot of NBA players like Scottie Pippen and Karl Malone who have ranches getting farm subsidies from the US government. It’s a hustle revealed but in the context of the plan it’s vital so fuck a hustle.

If we succeed at Step 1.of Starting a regional snack or fast food company then we need to think about how we are going to control our pricing. First of course we need to buy the land where we locate our franchises or operate our manufacturing plan. Second we need to get our own avenues for the distribution of our product without the hands of others limiting us. Finally we need to get our hands in the dirt and grow the crop ourselves. So if it’s pork rinds you want to mass produce then we need our own pig farms, if it’s chicken then we need our own chicken farm, if it’s walnuts we need our own walnut processing plant, shit if we want to make our own clothes it might be a good idea to grow our own cotton!  Shit we set up the businesses that need this product it only makes sense that we go and buy or create the company that supplies our business (aka vertical integration). I know you think fucking FreeMan is crazy this motherfucker wants to make sure no one gets any money but us, well you’re right. You got to get this lets be fair civil rights thinking out of your fucking head becuase they aren’t sharing with us!

In the beginning it’s cool to use other companies and I’m sure they would love to supply us shit but in the long run we are at the mercy of the chicken supplier. Let’s say Tyson foods who supplies KFC with chicken says FreeMan our price for grain to feed the chickens have gone up and so we are raising our prices. Then FreeMan being a solid businessman has to recoup this money someway so he says ok raise the prices over christmas on the price of chicken by the same margin. Now in all things in this country the price goes up so this ain’t going to be the last time Tyson makes up some bullshit that I can do nothing about. Now lets say FreeMan farms existed and supplied FreeMan foods or FreeMan Chicken it’s own chickens then if the price of grain went up what the fuck do I care since I never paid the premium from buying it from Tyson in the first place. At FreeMan farms we employ Blacks to do all of the jobs not some diversity bullshit you see at Tyson where the plant is in a all black city but only 5% of the workforce is black. At FreeMan farms we not only supply FreeMan Chicken and Food but supply Popeyes their fucking chickens in the A. At FreeMan farms we grow our own special kind of chicken that is not pumped up with hormones and can control quality just like the Jews do with their hot dogs (Check their process out they are way more humane and healthy with their handling of their meats) So from FreeMan foods or Chicken we created FreeMan farms with the focus to supply our own with our own workers. Now as a business FreeMan Farms are creating and enabling it’s own customers to purchase our own products. When Henry Ford started Ford he made the cars affordable not just for the public but mainly for his workers because who best to buy the product than the motherfuckers making it. This way Ford got a direct return on his money he sent out because the workers bought his cars and thus HE CREATED HIS OWN FUCKING MARKET!

I know this topic can be too heady for some cats but let me break it down to you. If you sold peanuts for 1 buck  but bought them from planters for 50 cent you make 50 cent profit. Now let’s say you sold peanuts for 1 buck but you made them yourself your cost is probably only 10 cent so you make 90 cent profit. Also, since you grow your own peanuts you can sell them to other peanut sellers for 40 cents undercutting planters and moving fucking units. To the cats on the street think of it as moving weight and going wholesale. This is what having your own home grown is really about. See most cats think the money is in retail but truth be told the money is in wholesale.

Bigger picture wise if we open FreeMan Farms then we can supply supermarkets, restaurants, school districts, prisons, boarding schools, other countries, other cities, dogs, cats, birds and bats with the shit we make on our farm. Overall we aren’t asking anyone to feed us and that is the fucking goal of building a self sustaining system. So when Tyson food chickens get bird flu ours won’t, when Hatfield pigs start giving swine flu ours won’t, when cattle farms have mad cow disease guess what ours won’t. We CONTROL our production, health, and price of our own food without worrying about being locked out of a market.

Solution: Now most motherfuckers will start ass backwards on this hustle. They will say FreeMan we should start our own farms right now and guess what I’ll be seeing their bitch ass selling kumquats at the farmers’ market and wasting fucking time. The plan has to be followed to the T and we need to create the need for the farms not play that dumbass game of selling shit to motherfuckers who don’t want to buy it from us. So to repeat build KFC first then go and build the farms because we already have the company to buy it any other way would just be asshole stupid.

We are getting into the takeover stage so don’t get mad when you see I am not saying this shit so we can be fucking good citizens. Don’t get mad when I don’t give a fuck when we aren’t listed on the Black Enterprise top 100 companies. Don’t get mad when I am not on the television acting like a white boy benefactor looking like a motherfucker who wants to be part of the world community. This whole plan is for us not for the world. You have to get that civil rights lets prove ourselves and join the world community shit out of your head. We have enough to do for self, we have the buying power, we have the knowledge, we have everything we need to do for self. The only thing we are missing is you not believing in yourself!

P.S. Don’t worry I already thought about you not believing in yourself, we’ll get around it until you are proud to be Black and finally think we can do for self!


Step 6. (Distribution) Logistics and Delivery

2009 May 11

CBR003565Congratulations if/WHEN we have gotten to Step 6 we are already a force to be reckoned with, so why wouldn’t we go in for the kill huh? In all that we hope to build the ability to disseminate information and our products to our folk uninhibited by others is of primary importance. Now don’t think so big as it will get big but right now it’ll start small. Did you know supermarkets, convenience stores and even Wal Mart are just distribution centers. I know you think they are stores for you to shop but more than anything they are strategically located to make sure you can get the fucken snuggie for christmas. So many products depend on this network of stores and warehousing that brings you a fresh coca cola in Mobile Alabama. I know you don’t see it huh because they have the big ass warehouse 15 miles outside of town and it looks like a fucking truck depot. Up to this point I have been talking about creating industries and getting jobs but we need access.

First, we can use mom and pop distribution. Usually the big distributors want you to barely make any money on your product because they tell you to add up the pennies to become a millionaire. Now us, you and me, we got something already in place that we know hits directly our own folk. I know you are going to laugh when I say it but Barber Shops and Beauty Salons litter our neighborhoods just as much as the other God given distribution center the Black Church. If you have any product that caters towards us you would get your product out by making sure everyone who does hair has a display in their shop showcasing your goods.  You can usually make deals with one of the barbers to sell your shit on consignment. I mean how many times have you gotten your hair done and they are trying to upsale you some Black Soap or some Shea Butter? This alone will help spread your product word of mouth and if it’s a great product then it’ll be a local hit.

Second, we can use the internet. As more and more people get online you won’t even need to make a consignment deal. You can go to OUR local black bank set up a online merchant account and sell everything your hearts desire. Shit we can even make house calls for our services if you want. The future looks extremely bright with us just making deals with Amazon to showcase our products and then we can send it out from home. As usual I want us to make our own Amazon so if you’re a Black entrepreneur think about it! Ok now let’s go read how Jeff Bezos started Amazon and build our own!

Third, think UPS! All these products are going to be bought in a new way and they require delivery. If we are only catering towards our own area how big do we really have to be. See look around next time and check how many messengers are doing local delivery next to Fedex and UPS. They are making enough money to out pace the big guys because they only operate in a small radius. Just think when people start getting their groceries delivered as they aren’t going to order fish from the next fucking state. So if you start small doing small shit lets say in downtown with documents when the time comes you’ll be able to expand out with your small cars and refrigerated vans.

Fourth, distribution warehousing. All these companies don’t want and need a warehouse in each state and they hire this shit out to whomever has warehouse space and can deliver it to their customers. In what I do right now the truckers just pick shit up from the port and take it to the warehouse straight from china. Some of my customers even get the warehouses to send it out UPS to their customers around the country. As the amount of products that service our area increases we need a local hub near town to distribute the goods. Think Coca Cola Bottling as they have one near every area to service people with fresh soda.

Fifth, trucking. All this shit has to be delivered whether that be to the door, to the dock or to their customer. We can let the Black local UPS we create do the small packages but we need someone to bring in all those shirts from the docks. We need someone to haul grain to the farms. We need someone to haul garlic to the supermarkets. We need someone to haul steel to the construction site. We need someone to bring in that big ass tractor to plow the road for asphalt. Trucking is in everything we do and if we get into that industry you’ll see when the others come they’ll hire you. Think Coca Cola bottling as they have trucks dropping off fresh coke to small corner stores.

Sixth, local corner stores. HUH? Yes, the world is actually returning to the local dairy on the street. In the past you only went to the big places every once in a while but since the advent of the internet this too will pass. So the local corner store will actually make a resurgence and this is key. The key to our distribution is to make sure we don’t have ao ask WalMart to carry our products as we can strategically build 7-11 convenience stores near our barbershops  and that will create local access that the malls can only dream of. If you needed a coke and it was late you aren’t going to go to the supermarket you are going to the corner store and they know this that’s why they charge you more.  Strategically this should be step 1 of our distribution efforts, as we need to have our own places to sell our goods.

Solution: Now that we built it how are we going to get it to our folk. In the beginning this isn’t a issue because a distribution system set up by other folk is already up and ready to make money off of your ass. It’s just the natural progression of things that we decide to build our own distribution network and make it catered towards our folk. Now all of this will create a shitload of jobs for our folk, as these are the jobs that will be available. From the cat who drives it in to the kid who bags the groceries they are all part of logistics and delivery. Once we have this distribution network set up even other groups will ask us to distribute their goods through our system. Now Whola we make money off of their shit!

Don’t be the guy on the picture up top be the guy who employs the guy on the picture up top! We can hire our own children to  distribute and get a handle on the lay of the land. These are not great jobs at the delivery level but at the distribution level we are making money just by getting the product out of our hands. Remember WALMART is the biggest distributor in the USA, their whole way of making money is taking money off of the top of all the products they carry in their Stragecially located stores. They don’t make shit at all, they just make money selling you other people’s shit. SO WILL WE!

Step 5. (Education) Boarding Schools

2009 May 4
by FreeMan

senessiedm2409_468x321You think it’s going to happen because we pay all the taxes and that equals we run the schools right? You think if we get really educated teachers who love our kids, shit lets get black teachers to teach everyone; then that will be enough. You think if we just got more funding from the state, Obama sends in more teachers, the business community gets involved or more parents involvement we won’t need to create our own. You think once why build our own when it’s just too many fucking kids to educate we are going to need a army with tasers to control our kids. You think there are so many problems with our children that shit FreeMan you need to hire psychiatrists and preachers to exorcise the demons out of their minds. Well of course you are wrong and when we build it please stay your bitch ass, pessimistic, we need help ass off of the school board.

First, it has to be private so we won’t have to play the game with the state.  We can’t play that charter shit because it’s still state mandated. All we need is to know their requirements and put them into the school but we sure as hell don’t want them involved in our schools. See right now you send your kids to schools and the teachers are unmotivated and overwhelmed. The teachers have accepted failure when they see a black face and even if your kid is just struggling in one subject they might be labeled a loser and get treated that way forever. There is no check and balance, no firing, no best practices and really no fucking organization in the schools. When you drop your kid off at school in the morning it’s like rolling the dice because most are getting a inferior education so even if your kid is top of the class he is the smartest of the dumbasses. There are so many people who are promoted that can’t even spell Fabulous because they think of the rapper Fabolous that they fuck up. Real talk they tried this shit on the radio out here and no one spelled it right because they spelled it like the rapper spelled his name.

Second, it has to be boarding school so we can control our kids environment. We can’t play that oasis in the ghetto shit that so many places are trying to create. It’s not that motherfuckers were unwilling to learn in the first place it’s when they got home they were eating corn flakes with water. It wasn’t that little Tamika was sexual at a young age it’s she was copying off of what she saw on the street or in her own house. It wasn’t little Cory was disrespectful it’s just he saw other people he respected cursing and grabbing their nuts that made him become a problem. We will have to put the school at least 15 to 30 miles outside of the city and only bring up the parents on the weekend to visit. We have to create a new environment with new rules and safe surroundings if we want to cure the ills of walking around the Black Gaza strip for the majority of their life.

Third, it has to pull from the worst areas of the city first. We can’t keep ignoring the people who are in the worst way by playing this talented 10th shit. As we pull these kids out of the schools then your kids should probably get a better education out of your public school because the kids with real problems just aren’t enrolling. We have to help the kids who need not only a great education, but those who need to break the cycle of poverty in their life. We cannot leave it up to their parents to somehow have an epiphany of knowledge to do the right thing. We have to admit that the reason why people often stay in their situation is because they just don’t know any better, so we have to make sure their kids know better so they will do differently. If we want to transform things we need to transform the ghetto so that it finally dies off because everyone knows how to get out of it. It’s the same process as the NFL draft the worst teams get the best players year after year after year until 10 years later the Arizona Cardinals get to the fucking Super Bowl. This has to be the focus of the whole school otherwise we are not solving the problem of poverty and ignorance which sabotages our growth.

Fourth, it has to be about results. We can’t be playing this well rounded good person shit as that will come from discipline and confidence. It has to be about teaching kids if you don’t know then we will keep trying until we do know. They have to realize in all that they do, it’s not that anything in this life is hard; it’s really about repetition until you finally get it right. We have to create tinkerers and curious kids who have the wherewithal to stick through very tedious processes. Despite all that they learn if they master that pattern then no matter what they do in life they will gut it out. We want to teach them to be builders not supporters, let the church teach them that shit.

Fifth, it has to teach our history. We need to come up with a systematic teaching of our history. From Africa to the Diaspora as the history and triumphs of every Black person is our history. If the whites can act like Napolean is part of their history then I don’t see why we can’t make King Tut part of ours. We need to teach in a fashion that makes us see the oneness of all of us not the separation. This will create in their minds the comfort level to walk into any Black neighborhood from Harlem to Cuba with the belief that they belong. It will give them the defense against the shit they see on TV where we only see ourselves as complete ignorant transvestite ni99as or tokens on a show with no real power.

Sixth, it has to feed into our universities. We need it to be a funnel for our own black colleges. We are letting others benefit from our own children through athletics and intellect. If we got all the young black men in the ghetto to play basketball for lets say Howard that team would be in the top 10 of the NCAA every year. Same with Football, baseball, and any other fucking sport. We are College Football and Basketball, it’s about damn time we benefit from it instead of sending them to becomes million dollar dumbasses with whites saying they are getting a good education. We have our intelligent folk all over the country not being able to create their own business with the knowledge gained because they think they have to go work where the other people tell them is opportunity. We need to keep our intelligent people reproducing for a black return and that means we need to funnel them back into our communities to expand our own with that knowledge. Let Microsoft build their plant in Atlanta to get our programmers fuck Palo Alto. Why can’t we build our own BlackSoft company and compete with the world but have a constant supply of qualified engineers and software people bringing innovation to our people.

Seventh, we need to give them a sense of responsibility of our own. This way you won’t be the only motherfucker out there trying to organize the community. You will have someone who is born and raised in that area returning to get another generation out of their predicament, and you can’t buy that kind of dedication. Also, this responsibility will make the next set of entrepreneurs who will not be scared to hire people they know even if they have a record from jail. This will also create familiar people in trusted positions around the city that will control the devilish tendencies of others to come into our community and exploit the ignorant.

Of course there are more to the 7 listed. I wanted to give you a vision of the type of strong people this kind of focused school will build. No matter what happens and if the public schools turn out to be the greatest in the land we should never put our kids back in because they will never teach responsibility. They will never teach love of ourselves and they will never teach your kid to be a responsible capable adult. The school system now is set up to teach your kids just enough to be a good employee not to be a able bodied competent nation building adult. I know you think the school will crank out robots but you’ll be wrong. It’ll crank out prepared, confident, strong individuals who do not need others to validate who they are as they know they have what it takes to take on this world. They have the tools and they know they are part of something bigger than a fucking bullshit certificate from a white school.

Solution: Atlanta already has Black colleges and they do a great job graduating able bodied brothers and sisters. Building on the already existing infrastructure we can get the local kids to attend the schools and transform the native Atlanta folk into the feeder for the beacon which will be Atlanta. We cannot have all the transplants as the only people who prosper in Atlanta as that will build a certain amount of animosity between our own. We can’t have this rich vs poor, smart vs dumb shit and this school will address that head on. In about 20 years whatever was the ghetto should naturally disappear because we went to get those kids to end the cycle of poverty. These same kids can now come back to their community and buy their houses and live and take care of their family. In 30 years the type of person who lives in Atlanta and runs the city will change and have a certain focus that will yield a black return. Finally we will have the school system to accommodate the new arrivals who will naturally come to Atlanta to partake in the prosperity. This school has to remain up because there will always be kids whose parents will not allow them to go to our school. As a result their kids will have to be taught and never forget if it works the way it’s planned there will be more people immigrating to Atlanta for the opportunities.

There is no way in hell we can let our kids go into public schools. Let’s end that shit in this generation! If we can’t control it then we shouldn’t let our kids enroll in it.

Step 4. (Black Money Holdings) Community Black Banks

2009 April 27

kenya_banknote_11540I know you see a couple but there isn’t a plan. They are all operating independently for their own reasons. Some are backed by white banks if you read the fine print. Most are not convenient in any way and ask their customers to come into the middle of the hood to deposit a check! I have deposits at a couple one in LA and another in NY. Probably like most of you I put my money in there because I support the theory of what they hope to accomplish. BUT, nope I don’t use them for my business as they aren’t close for me to make deposits, nope I don’t use them for personal account as they are not close to where I live and nope I don’t think they offer anything superior in product or interest rate for me to entertain the thought. I shop around just like you and if it don’t make dollars it don’t make sense!

If we are to build a bank system for ourselves it can’t be in the typical white way. It can’t be all over the fucking place or all in one place either, now follow me. Most people barely use the brick and mortar banks anymore as they just want to deposit their check and that can be done at the ATM. Now I’m not minimalizing the fact that most people don’t let their money sit in the bank to long plus the fuckers hold your money for deposit purposes so they’d rather get it all in cash. The issue is us looking at what the bank is actually needed for nowadays and seeing if we can find a way to service our folk even better. Now if most people are coming in the bank to cash or deposit a check or they are coming to open a account how big does the actual bank have to be. I mean it can be the same size of a check cashing spot can’t it? If that’s the case this allows us to put banks in strip malls in very convenient locations.  Next, the ATMS should be as many places as possible and I’m not talking about the big ass ones you see sometimes I’m talking about monopolizing the 7-11 with those small ass ones that everyone can see. Now we will still have big ATMS all over the heavily trafficked areas like a downtown or in a mall but overall who needs the big ass bank anymore.

Now I know you are saying Freeman it sounds cool and shit but people like to go in the banks and they don’t want the ATM’s. Well sorry to say this but your old ass mom and grandmom who wants crisp 2 dollar bills won’t be around too much longer so why are we catering towards them. Everyone 35 and younger are very comfortable with paying bills online, debit cards and even handling everything they need over the phone. A generation of people are going to die soon and with them will go their old ass ways, again no disrespect to your grandmoms as I liked crisp 2 dollar bills from my gmom too. Technology has pretty much taken over the banking industry and the mark of the beast prophecy is coming towards us where they will scan your barcode on your forehead. So since we know it’s coming why don’t we take the next step in our planning.

We are losing tons of money in our own communities by not paying attention to the cons. You and your grandmom turn in this big ass water jug of pennies and shit that you have collected for years. You go to the supermarket and turn them in for a voucher and the devil takes the 10% and you think its alright because the machine counted it but you act like that’s a fucking service. This con works because you’d rather be embarrassed at Walmart with jugs of coins or at the supermarket than at the banks where they are supposed to count the shit. I know the bank charges if you don’t have it in order but that’s because you punk’d out by not saying it’s your fucking job. Con 2 is by executed by the POS point of sale machines that alot of vendors have when they accept credit cards when you go into their beauty salon. Now these motherfuckers are making 2% (just like paypal) off of every swipe of the card and the merchant accepts it. You just didn’t know they have added the shit back into your price.

Now you are saying so what Freeman, well lookey here. If there was a smarter person running the banks they would go out to all the merchants and provide the same services. All the black businesses could have a merchant POS machine directly tied into their account at the bank and for a smaller fee lets say .5% and then the money is returned to our businesses and thus more money is in our banks. The same thing goes for putting the damn coin counter in the bank so you gmom can get her 200 bucks from her Indian pennies from the civil war.  If the person running the bank set up it’s own PayPal service online through the bank people would buy your shit from Timbuktu and it would return to our banks. The game is all money has to be recaptured not just some all. All of our businesses have to be connected to these black banks so that your buying of Tyler Perry transvestite video on DVD creates revenue for us collectively. If we have a bank that fucking caters it’s business model towards the spending habits of our own people then we will not have our money leaving our areas.

The banks have a responsibility too and that is to be proactive.  The banks have to stop being the come and get money from us place to the this is how you make money places. Most bank managers know the cats in the banks who have money and know the people in there who could benefit from a loan. Now the banks can’t make loans like they are handing out money but they can connect you with the cats that will. In this way the bank is actually encouraging loans with the money that’s already there without violating the strict bank laws that they have to abide by. The money never really actually leaves the bank at all because it’s shifting from one account holder to the other. This will now allow the person who receives the loan to increase their credit line because the bank can see the money and thus the new company has money and increased credit without the bank losing a GOD DAMN thing. Yes, it sounds like a hustle and it is but it’s legal and I have done that with my bank manager all the time to increase his numbers as he gave me higher interest rates.

Now we have damn near made a collective to help our businesses with the bank manager acting as the organizer between parties who may never meet.  The bank manager can now offer the POS machines to go into the new business. The bank manager now causes this new business to hire someone from the neighborhood. The bank manager now can do some free word of mouth for the new company by putting a sign on the window that says a new company that banks with OUR BANK has opened on so and so street. The Bank manager can set up a deal with the new business to offer discounts to people who patronize the bank. And Guess what? All the money is just circulating through Black hands without any whitey bank involved. This is the leverage we need to create because as long as Citibank, Chase and Wells Fargo run shit they will never allow their penguin suited managers the freedom to create. Instead they want to offer you bullshit services that don’t make money for anyone but the bank.

Solution: So the bank is key in all of our transactions. See most people who don’t understand money say the money should recycle like 4 times in our neighborhoods like it’s a magical thing. NO it’s the collection and retention at the end by the bank that fucking makes the community grow. We are giving money to motherfuckers who won’t loan it to us at all. So why try to find a million black businesses when we can own the banks and return the favor to all the devils. If we take over the area then even the Koreans, Whites and Martians will bank with our bank. The difference is we hold the money in the end and that’s the POWER!

So far we have covered the entrepreneurs, civil servants and mass media. The Bank is the cornerstone industry that will make the above survive and thrive. We cannot afford to hope that they hire enough blacks at your local bank to make you feel like they will help. They can’t because the Italians, Jews and Rich White Families think your black ass is a bad risk so they will take your hard earned money and fund the next white guy they see coming down the road with a degree, dream and a mousse in his hair. Don’t forsake this rule as everything we build has to return to US!

Extra: I know you can’t believe we can do it because the idea of a Bank is overwhelming but we have an example right in front of us. Bank of America was originally the Bank of Italy and it was started by Italians to cater towards Italians. It just so happens to be one of the biggest banks in the USA now.  Check the link. http://www.beardbooks.com/beardbooks/the_story_of_bank_of_america.html

“We Never Wanted to Be Equal at All, We  just Wanted to Have the Opportunity!”

Step 3. Unfiltered Communication – Radio,Local TV & Internet

2009 April 20
by FreeMan

radio_towerThe reason why all these artsy people complain is because we don’t have any medium that is not owned by other groups. The reason why we don’t have our own images of Black beauty is because other groups don’t see beauty in us. The reason why all these parents complain about the television shows is because other groups are determining what our kids should be exposed to. The reason why you only hear buffoons on your morning drive is because other people are appealing to the most ignorant of our population and making money from it. The reason why you don’t know what’s going on in the Carribean, Africa, South America and Central America is because another group doesn’t give a fuck about them and thus you don’t get to see them on their TV station. The reason why we never hear the black side of the story, the true motherfuckers who saw when the guy got shot by the police and never seem to hear when a little black kid is missing is because another group doesn’t give a fuck to broadcast it. The reason why our actors are still acting as crack heads is because someone else is determining where they think our race should be in this world. You just don’t know how much you are missing but they claim they keep you informed, informed of their lives!

You’ve seen Public Access television and I bet you think GOD DAMN FreeMan you want us to watch another commercial about male enhancement. You want us to watch some weird religion broadcast with some interpretation of Yahweh. No, we can do better than that I mean we got the talent. If you’ve ever been to your local TV station it’s just a building with a couple of studios and it doesn’t really look that great.  If you really look at your local station nothing comes on that shit but the news 5 times a day and some fucking reruns, don’t you think we can at least do that? I mean if we really start broadcasting all the local shit plus throw in some news from around the diaspora we will have damn near a network news channel. If you ever watch the Spanish channels they are importing soap operas from other latin american television stations for dirt cheap for programming. They also show some old ass mexican movies that still have them walking around like cowboys. Now I know you don’t want to see fucking Steve Urkel again but we can do better than that.

Almost all the reality shows are just someone taping everything and editing it into a show. We can do Survivor Compton if you want just to fuck with people’s brains LOL! You don’t think we can do children’s shows in the morning? You don’t think we can create basic sitcoms like Tyler Perry? You don’t think we can tape beauty contests, do shows on our restaurants, make cooking shows, tape a comedy store, talk about stocks, tape a local car garage that pimps out cars, do a dating game and put a camera at the city council votes on shit that effects us.  Oh yeah don’t think I forgot about taping the sermon from our mega church misleaders whether that be Christianity or Islam, because we can make that happen too. I mean I’m not in film but it looks like all we need to hire are a lot of camera people and a super editing bay. I mean you forget sometimes that we are the source of so much entertainment that all we have to do is give the Damn film to our own stations. I know some of you think fuck the TV we should do it on the internet but truth be told TV is never going to fade away no matter how many fucking movies you get on demand.

The Radio station is also a major key because as long as we have people driving into work in the morning. Radio is often the first line of whistle blowers and first hand knowledge. Radio is also the passers of gossip like wildfire now while I don’t see any value in that shit the delivery mechanism is of vital importance. You might not get everyone to watch TV but a good chunk of our folk are listening to Steve Harvey in the morning if he said anything of importance he would reach a lot more than me and you breaking into Urkel. Now we don’t have to build a radio station we can just occupy the same studios as our tv stations so we can share information right away between both mediums.

I know this is the age of the internet and people will get their media information in other ways than old ass TV and radio. The part to recognize is this medium will have easier access, be cheaper to organize and for a small region like Atlanta to Savannah be local information at it’s best. What’s disappearing is having 100 news stations telling you about Iraq but nothing about what’s happening in Midtown Atlanta. If we want we can get a news feed story from the BBC if we want to know what the fuck is going on with everyone else. The actual news can be the news if we would expand it past the opening of a roller rink named after a old white lady who had 30 cats.

Solution: The dissemination of information and the control of it is of primary imporatance. So much of why we are this way is because of misinformation. We need to lay claim to the airwaves, internet and broadcast televisions to inform, entertain, educate and provide for our own images, our own interpretation, and for our own people. By the way the TV station will make money regionally because we can get local advertising on there along with national brands. Just remember what BET was and how long it lasted as just running utter bullshit out of rat infested studios in DC. Just imagine if we tried to do something which actually had a plan than showing girls shake their ass and a whole day of Gospel Fest.

This step is important to not only inform our own but to inform our own of what we own and operate. We now have our entrepreneurs in place looking for customers, created a customer base with the civil servants and now have a TV station to not only inform them of what’s going with us but where to buy from us.

Step 2 – Strategic Jobs & Stability

2009 April 13

pwo2955I know some of you political types are going to argue we should be running for office and shit like that. We already run the majority of our cities and still Black people are getting dragged behind trucks, potholes are not fixed and you can’t send your kids to the school so go ahead with that ol bullshit. I know you have a dream but it ain’t mine so keep going bloodsucker as you don’t have any power just a fucking title and that’s why shit doesn’t change! For the past two generations our elders have been telling us to jump into the system. We thought if we start delivering the fucking mail, cleaning the sewer, helping their fucking brats go to school, and making sure they got the right tags on their VW bug we would gain respect. Well surprise Bitches you don’t have anything but some dreams and Obama…..

Police – I don’t like those motherfuckers either but this is where we have start. We got to start schools and training courses to get our folk into the police academy. Even if we have to create our own fucking police academy this has to be priority one. We get picked off and put in jail because motherfuckers are terrified of us. We have this constant driving while black issue pop up every fucking day because they can’t identify who is doing bad so they might as well go fish on any black man. We don’t get the benefit of the doubt when we get stopped. All our people have fucking lost hope that they can’t do anything to better it. It’s like we have fucking accepted a occupying force in our communities.  I don’t give a fuck what anyone says we got to get the power they have and it starts with the motherfuckers with the guns. Now I’m not saying we do this in any coop attempt way as much as we need to let the judge be our color.

Now some of you sitting in other places like Baltimore will say we  have Black cops already and I’ve seen them so you do. Shit, the majority of us are law abiding citizens but if you know motherfuckers are slanging drugs they got to do their job. We have to admit a significant part of our race is out committing crimes and they have to pay for it. Watch how much you want a robber to get off when he robs your ass. The issue I am trying to address here is not so we can enable criminals as much as we need to disable the bigots.

Fire Department – I don’t know how many white people there are in the country but the fact that they seem to have the fire department on lock is of some concern. This is another area we can just take over by sheer number in Atlanta by getting our young men and women ready to take and pass all requirements. The real reason we need this position is from our own History with Black Wall St. The GOD DAMN fire department didn’t even come to put out the fires until all of what Black People built was turned to rubble.  I know you think I’m fucking paranoid but be aware that these motherfuckers are sore losers and will come up with 50 new laws just to get you to lose your money. The game is rigged but at least this time we’ll be spraying their bitch assess with waterhoses.

Jury Duty - Yes, motherfucker you should attend it becuase someone in our race is depending on you. If they are guilty they should pay but if they are not don’t let the rest of those motherfuckers send him to jail becuase they think they are doing what’s WHITE I mean right! I know someone will say we need to be lawyers and the judge but that will take entirely to long in the beginning and most judges are apointed so let the rest of the blacks in the system get there.

Water and Power – Most of these jobs do not require too much in the education field as they are on the job training. Certifications and licenses will need to be found out about so we can set up schools. Most likely Georgia Gas will love to sponsor it so they can have a influx of qualiifed applicants. The key to this field is it’s fucking essential no matter how bad the economy gets they will not shut this down.

Public Works – The city is a city so it’s going to break down. The potholes have to be fixed, lights have to be replaced, holes have to be dug, sewers have to be cleaned, trash has to be picked up. Along with the bare essentials this is probably the next thing the city will have to pay for with our taxes. So why not take over this shit too. Again like any of the things listed above we can make schools to have our folk pass these exams in a very easy and strategic way. Most motherfuckers think this kind of work is below them but it’s good pay and it will raise a family.

I know someone is going to say why can’t we be teachers too. Yeah go ahead and be a teacher but don’t send your fucking kids into that system. Do you see little Arab kids at your local public school but they live down the street right? You think by sending us all in there we will be able to dictate what is being taught but that shit comes down from the state so they are just going to work. You already know a lot of black teachers don’t you? So think of it the same as politics they just put a black face on top a failing system. This way you hold back from complaining that things are fucked up because they know you won’t say anything against someone black. You’ll just keep electing the same motherfucker who attends your church like you usually do.

Solution: Business first, Strategic Jobs and Stability second because we need to build a solid base. People with money do not let their children go to bad schools they rather get them all mixed up with Catholicism instead. Now at least your kid won’t get shot by some cop who is scared of a 17 year old 6 foot black kid, because he’ll be the same height and color himself!

The Reason – Once we get this second group up it creates the market for the middle class growth that this country depends on. We need this base of money makers to support our businesses and create the demand for more services from our own entreprenuers. If we get this done don’t be surprised to see all the white folks move back in and your property value go up. The scavengers can identify suckers so it’s important that in our schools even for passing these civil exams have a hint of what’s to come.

Step 1 – Start a Regional Snack Company or Fast Food Company.

2009 April 6
by FreeMan

utz_crabNo matter what happens in this world people do two things EAT & SHIT! So if you don’t want to start a food company maybe you can do the end result and perfect wiping assess. Truth be told I have been working on a new kind of toilet paper delivery system instead of the basic roll that you normally get. Me and my friends have been thinking about creating a butt glove that was disposable so you can get as much as possible then throw away the glove. Yeah, it sounds gross but wiping your ass with dry paper is fucking weird too. Anything dealing with freshening someone’s ass instead of having them wash deeply will work just as well. So now you see why I am sticking to food I think it’s easier to get you to eat food than change your wiping habits….

Did you know in Philadelphia the people there eat 5 times as much pretzels and potato chips than any other place in the country? Did you know UTZ potato chip has that area on lock doing better than Frito Lay, and another regional pretzel producer is kicking any major producers ass. Do these pretzels or potato chips taste any fucking better than your Doritos? Hell NO!, it’s just UTZ has catered it’s flavors toward their market. Cats in Philadelphia like salt and vinegar chips a hell of a lot and Frito Lay is not going to take a chance on seeing if that shit will work. They are so big they are just going to keep hoping you eat the same Nacho Cheese, Cool Ranch or Fritos. UTZ doesn’t travel too far out of Philadelphia proper because they know who they serve and they are making millions doing it. UTZ is now a family favorite and you have generations of people eating those chips for no other reason except they feel comfortable.

We can do this! Atlanta is a isolated region that I’m very confident has it’s own unique tastes. In Baltimore they love Lake Trout, in Los Angeles we love hamburgers, in NY they love pizza, in Atlanta they love????? Either way whatever the hell it is we should make a regional food franchise catering towards these unique tastes. I don’t give a fuck if they love pickled pigs feet we need to be making some fucking crippled pigs! Finding out what the tastes of your region’s customers is step 1 in making sure the damn business survives. Most people make the mistake of thinking everyone wants your fucking grandmas recipe for barbecue chicken but fucking fail. Only your crazy family loves that much cayenne pepper on their shit everyone else thinks it nasty but won’t tell you.

Scenario 1, we need the snack food to be small and easily reproducible. To me I’d start off with candy, peanuts, and maybe even fucking popcorn as all of these can be created rather cheaply. Let’s go with Sunflower seeds because instead of it being a like it can become a habit. If we do it right people will just eat them without knowing. Sunflower seeds rather regularly salted, barbecued, or onion and vinegar depending on the likes of the region are easy to package, transport and reproduce. The physical plant needed to produce this snack will not be that big and can employ a small amount of labor for cheap wages. As the demand for our unique product grows we will increase the plant and expand our region from just a local snack to a city snack to a snack of Georgia and finally to a snack of the South East.

Scenario 2, we need a fast food company. To me I’d start off with fried chicken as this place will work well wherever we happen to be. From higher class to lower class to no fucking class at all our folk love good fried chicken. Now we would have to change it up a bit because most of us have a place and a time for fried chicken. No one has innovated it and as such we think of buckets full of it. In Chicago there is this fried chicken place called Harolds! For those who have seen it you know how good it is. On Kanye West through the wire video he taped part of it inside Harolds. What makes Harolds so great is they make fried chicken with barbecue sauce on it. It’s a unique and great tasting twist on chicken. Of course Harold is suffering from the Mom and Pop syndrome as if you type it in on Google you will see white people are mad they have to go to the hood to get it. Harold’s is a great black owned, black serving franchise to start but they do not have what will make it great.

Mistakes of Mom and Pops are that they don’t have a standard look, a standard menu and a unique product. Harold’s has a unique product but when you walk in depending on the franchisee it can look like a hole in the wall or it can look like it is part of a mall. In order for us to fully capitalize on our unique product we have to standardize the tastes, the presentation (plates, buckets, and napkins), the marketing (combos and coupons), create a brand identity (example Ronald Mc Donald), the side menu items (honey biscuits aka honey bees, macaroni, fries and the like) and strategically locate them within a certain driving distance from each other. With this we can start small and grow a franchise by dominating a small area of Atlanta. Don’t worry about Kentucky Fried Chicken or Popeyes they would rather buy us out (but we won’t sell) instead of fucking up their original recipe and their current customer base. As the demand for our unique product grows we will create the need to find/create our own chicken supplier (another black owned company), expand our region from just a local chicken place to a city chicken place to a chicken place of Georgia and finally to the best chicken of the South East. (The real hustle is for us to own the land we put the franchise so we can control costs aka McDonalds model)

Both of these models will employ our own folk and service our own folk. We don’t have to go out and try to make people buy Black Power Peanuts and Snacks and we definitely don’t have to make our own folk by Fried Chicken. This is food the most basic of basic shit that doesn’t require us to go to college and fucking get a electrical engineer degree, the shit is basically recession proof if we stay disciplined of putting a franchise per so many people, and we standardize our offering to make sure it is the same no matter where they are. Of course someone will say you know our people don’t do customer service well! Well I’ll say if we fire everyone until we get the right kind of person then I guarantee it will. Lets not ever forget we want the money for reasons I’ll get into when I explain the other steps.

Solution: This is the most basic thing we can do that cannot be duplicated by anyone else. Most people love to make sure everyone loves their product but in an area that is dominantly one race or group that is a fucking mistake. In China they serve fucking Chinese food and that is the dominant food of course there are american foods there but that’s because they want something new. Our folk are under served we have everything else that is out there like subway, mcdonalds, and KFC but we drive all the way to the other side of town for some SOUL FOOD. That is the niche! Not in creating the Black Subway, but in creating food that our folk will eat. If other people want to eat it so be it more money for us RIGHT?

Extra: Don’t worry about other groups trying to copy we don’ t have to boycott it. Real usually recognize real. Just like all the hispanics don’t go to El Pollo Loco we won’t go to Cracker Bobs chicken shack if we have a viable alternative. I know I know I hear the capitalists say we should be everywhere but you are forgetting what we are trying to build here. If we ever, like we do right now; depend on other people for our money and well being then we will fold faster than a piece of paper.

Stay tuned to the rest of the steps as I will breakdown all 8 every Monday!
