New Leadership Into The 21St Century

In today's society, we are lead to think that all accomplishments have to be material. With this kind of thinking, we can easily see how a person can become so limited in terms of growth, and development, and a non-contributor to the positive development of human society as a whole. Many are influenced by the all-pervasiveness of the media, which contrary to what those in media would have us believe, media is not art mimicking life, but rather it helps to set the trends of life. We see many people with lots of money, especially those in the field of entertainment, with little or no vision, reach their peak in the early stages of their development, and then suddenly crash as a result of the trials of life. Still, others who desire to have these material accomplishments, although never rise to that level, still see it as their life's goal, and in their quest for it, they use illegal methods, which eventually leaves them dead in the streets, or locked up behind bars for a good deal of their young lives. Then there are those who continue to struggle to make ends meet and those who do manage to make it up the higher end of the economic ladder. Too many of these tend to lose their identity because they have been led to believe that the goal for the African American community is voting rights or integration, and once these goals are achieved, then the struggle is over. As a consequence of this kind of thinking, as African Americans, we still see ourselves at the bottom of American society. Not only here in America, but around the world as well.It is unfortunate.
