My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I want to meet the 1st man, Adam. I wanna know what Eve said to that fool to make him eat the fruit.I want to meet Malcolm X and find out what he thinks of where black ppl are today.I want to meet my Great grandfather so that I can get to know myself better.I want to meet YOU if you have a mind and spirit worthy of being known.

Music:


Movies:

I like movies that show me a view of things I don't normally see. With that in mind I really enjoyed both Syriana and Memoirs of a Geisha.Of course there are some movies I will ALWAYS go see: anything with Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, Don Cheadle, Alfre Woodard or Angela Basset.

Television:

TV generally sucks, but there's have been some good things on this year: House, Supernatural, BattleStar Galactica, Monk, and The Boondocks. I hate to admit it, but I liked Flavor of Love despite the fact that it was a shitty show that made black women look like gold diggin hoes.

Books:

I enjoy the writings of Neil Gaiman, Isaac Asimov, Langston Hughes, Stephen King, and Octavia Butler. I'm a fan of science fiction, fantasy, horror, and science fact. I like reading things that change my view of the universe and the people in it. After all, isn't reading supposed to expand your mind?

Heroes:

Who do I admire? A lot of people, but just to give you something to think about, one of them is the Egyptian King Ahknaton. If you don't know who he is and why he's to be admired, READ A BOOK!
