Cursing Was Never the Problem. Respectability Was
Most curse words don't come from some evil place. They started plain. They were made 'bad' by whoever got to decide what counted as proper. Most elders in the Black village I grew up in cursed. The grandma, the auntie, the same women who cursed like sailors were often the ones making sure the neighborhood kids' bellies stayed full. In Black culture, cursing has never automatically meant disrespect. It's culture. Yes, culture.

Revolution vs. Popularity
We live in a digital age. Numbers matter. But when your business is people, it has to be more than numbers. Every person is human. They can’t be seen as a commodity.
The revolution and pursuit of justice do need numbers. However, it needs integrity, humility, passion, morals, and ethics.
So dear Brother… dear Sister… why are you here?
