What can I say? My taste in music is just as heterogenous as my personality. :o)
The Great Debaters, Why Did I Get Married, Malcolm X, Panther, Crash, Rosewood, American Gangster, Enough, Madagascar, Akeelah and the Bee... I tend to gravitate toward documentaries, dramas based on true stories, kiddie movies (I've 6 year old brother and cousins between 4 and 9 years of age), movies that involve supernatural events, and Black dramas.
The Boondocks TV series, Robot Chicken, The Style Network, HGTV, The Weather Channel, CNN, MSNBC, BBC. NPR--though not television--is handy, too.
The Holy Quran, The Holy Bible (I've a special place in my heart for Psalms, Proverbs, and--of course--the Injeel), Ma'at the 11 Laws of God, The Boondocks, Sacred Woman, Islam and the Blackamerican, How to Eat & Live Longer, Assata, Naked, Juice Fasting and Detoxification, Hair Story, The Divine Nine...in short, I enjoy texts, research papers, comic books/strips, and periodicals that manage to fill my spiritual belly, open my 3rd eye, educate me in some form, and allow me an occasional hearty laugh.
Imhotep, ALL of The Ancestors, people unjustly imprisoned becase they rebelled against an oppressive state (I mean, wouldn't you rebel, too???), my mother, my grandparents, my 5 year old brother, my Brothers and Sisters all over the world who manage(d) to live under oppression and still keep their heads up when times were at their worst.
