Leave Us Alone.

from Elijah Gatewood -

U.S. Army veteran condems American
journalist, Juan Williams in
America for profiting off of plight
of Blacks in U.S.

Reporting from Washington.


Early this year, Juan Williams
wrote a book, "Enough". This
publication summarizes putting
an end to the "phony leaders" of
the United States with their
"dead end movements, and culture
of failure that are undermining
Black America". In the end,
Williams makes a plea as to
what Blacks "can do about it".
But the bottom line to it all,
he is really trying to sell this
book, priced at $25.00, but found
at other outlets for $16.50.

My advice to the American public
and people of the Middle East on
purchasing this book---save your
money.

I have not read "Enough", because
only the cover of it is sufficient.
Iam also an American, familiar with
the ways of some U.S. citizens who
profit off of the plight of people.
And I, like Juan Williams, am a
Black man, but only ten years
younger than him. In addition to
this, Iam also a U.S. Army veteran,
something Williams never was nor
ever will be. In such a profession
as the military, you have to be
quick in action and obediant when
it comes to rules. I may not be all
that fast, though, I can tell you
no one needs to skim though the
countless pages of Juan Williams'
book to know, enough of even this.
You can find that out from reading
just the cover of the publication.


For the life of me, I do not
understand why are there people out
there still trying to make a living
off of things we Blacks already know
how to do. We Blacks in the United
States know what to do.

Blacks must be mindful that, just
like our founding fathers sold us into
slavery and brought us here to America,
the same is happening here with Juan
Williams, and others like him. The
premise is under the guise of,
"claiming' to care about Blacks, when
it is actually the opposite. With no
exception to Juan Williams. This
information is coming free to the
public, unlike Mr. Williams, who wants
to make a killing off of his book at
the sad expense of Black Americans.

In a newslettter put out by the Oxon Hill
Public Library in Oxon Hill, Maryland,
"Current", it hosted an event to meet
Juan Williams about his book on September
2006. Mentioning that, "Half a century
after brave Americans took to the streets
during the civil rights era, Williams
writes that too many blacks Americans are
in crises". That is speaking of today.
But the book does Blacks no justice, since
it explores a common sense issue. There
is evil in all colors. It is not just
about race. Over and over again, the
bottom line is, as it proves, with
"Enough", that it is all about money with
these so-called heroes.

Juan Williams, leave us alone. Stop
making it a rush. We Blacks know what to
do.
