Eye From the Eastnew
Coming to the States was a necessity for me to be able to think clearly without facing the aggressive power of the Arab culture. I am like a survivor from a wreck, but I do not want to run, leaving others stuck there, alone. I want to cure my past wounds, to help myself be stronger in order to stretch my hands out to my own country.

Blame It On Hip-Hop ... Againnew
It's embarrassingly easy to blame hip-hop or a "street" mentality for today's "urban holocaust." But do you really think these events are happening because black kids are listening to Soulja Boy? Hell no! It's simple: M-O-N-E-Y and the lack of it.
