DONT BE FOOLED BY THE HYPE WE ARE HERE TO STAY AND WILLING TO FIGHT FOR THOSE WHO CANT KEEP YOUR HEAD UP MY BLACK PEOPLE WE WILL PREVALE ONE WAY OR ANOTHER… LOVE PEACE … SAUCEYEYEZ2

@21 ,

I was thinking the same thing. However, I believe these entertainers care more about their ratings, sales etc…. If they stand strong on this issue what would White America say. This is not a race issue this is about justice for everyone. As soon as something is done to them (”entertainers”) they would want us to rally and fight the cause for them as well. They do not see how this effects them as well, they have to work twice as hard to be where they are now, and still is not paid the same…. Now I have seen so many people go and perform at so many benefits that’s really nonsense and you mean to tell me they could not put together a benefit at Jena? Some of these entertainers are not real they have their publicist making decisions for them. And now they need to raise so much money to assist these kids and you mean to tell me all these rappers that have long criminal records that may have been unrightfully accused of, can not donate their time and money? We have people giving their last (money) to help these young boys and these rappers/Celebes buying out the bars, making it rain in the club, buying $3,000 dollar pair of jeans. We are going to have to get our priorities together. Ask Michael Jackson once they have deemed you a target you are going to want the same “Black”community to rally for you!

I luv to see my black people stick together on a situation like this. They need to free those young men it was just a fight not murder!! Children, teens get into fights all the time. I mean come on i guess we all are going to face 22 years to life in prison for a fight.

EVERYBODY LOOKS NICE

REPPIN VERY WELL- I WORE MY BLACK TODAY

WTF-

Why are some people using this comments section as a date request for pics submitted. Thats crazy!!!!!!!! *****cricketts***** I’m duumb-founded!

Shot out to Bun B! For taking the time to show his support!

I just wanted to say that I am at work and there are so many people wearing all black including me!

It really brought tears to my eyes yesterday while listening to the michael baisden show and hearing the love and support from our people on the JENA G case…I feel that we have came a long way from our past sistahs and brothas who fought for our rights and our freedom, which we are doing now…we must continue to have our voice be heard in a society in which tries to regard us as the minority… I believe that this JENA 6 case has shown us that we are a powerful people who have the strength to rise up against injustice… I think this marks a monumental day in history and that we will continue to fight against inequality and racism, and this situation was a perfect example to this…and yes I am at work with my BLACK on from head to toe!!!!

i wore black and I am so proud (not only of black people for getting it and taking a stand….but mainly for the people who are not black supporting the Jena 6)…..becasue many of them simply do not have to care…..but in reality, this situation is not a black thing this could effect ANYONE of ANYRACE, background, sex, sexual preference, religion, culture……………I wish I could have rallied….do ya’ll know were to you can get those Jena 6 shirts

Such an amazing thing to see - it really is. I fought back tears in my cublicle this morning reading all the coverage on this. We have come so far and our strength and verility is an amazing thing. Perhaps this can help bridge a few gaps that the media has tried to widen. Perhaps this can help restore our faith and love in each other. I love black people so very much and I hope more of you start to love yourselves and eachother.

In EVERYONE of these pictures… EVERYBODY is beautiful…~Butta

…and they say we can’t stick together - THE DEVIL IS A LIAR!!!!!

Got my Black on. Landover, MD is in the Building, Stand up!!!!
I’m proud that people (of all races and ethnic backgrounds) are stading up for Justice and Equality.

Martin Luther King would be Proud.

This is SOOO touching to me. I’m mad I didn’t go on the bus but to see all these people supporting this is beyond amazement. It makes me tear up….I’m not gonna cry though.

God bless my state, the Jena Six, and all the people of this country!!!

NO PIC BUT I AM SUPPORTING ALONG WITH MY DAUGHTER AND 21 FRIENDS.

Got mine on! I’m so glad to see people of all colors supporting this cause.

@Val…. You are welcome!!!!!!!

Im wearing black, woohoo!

CL- this is so cute! I time for everyone supporting this cause. Trust-TALLAHASSEE, FLA IS WEARING BLACK! 1 TIME FOR FAMU and the churches that sent buses to Jena for this cause.

# 13 Could u add the word “some” in front of white because as a white female I would just like to say that honestly NOT ALL white people are as ignorant,uneducated,disgusting,and selfish as the white people handling this situation in jena! I know alot of white people who are appauld at the way this situation was handled! It all starts with teaching our children to be loving and caring to everybody! I don’t speak to my own mother and she won’t let me see my sisters because my boyfriend is black our son is bi racial so my mother says she doesn’t “agree” with it! Because she grew up in a small town mostly whites she was told like many others from my parents generations that black people are “bad”. Im just glad I became my own person! People of different races & cultures & religion we all just have the same goals in life! Its my mothers loss because what she doesn’t realize is that im the happiest ive ever been I have my own family now and I get alot more love fom them them than from my own mother! Its just sad that my son has to grow up in such a hate filled world!

yes i did notice that everybody is at work even the non-colored showed supports….which is very nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I look dapper in my Black today. Down to my black flip flops. I will be uplading my pics when I get home!

rocked my black, felt good too, because I saw so many other people wearing black

Thank you F2! I live in NYC where wearing black is a everyday thing. I wore it yesterday and I’ll probably be wearing it tomorrow. Does that mean that I don’t support the Jena 6? Hell no! I would probably take this post more serious if half the pictures weren’t of smiling happy go lucky looking people and if more people commenting knew more FACTS about the case.

The school did try to suspend the white students as well as the black students. Barack Obama has spoken on the issue. And while Oprah is cool and shit, shes an entertainer, not a politician or God like some of yall seem to think.

Im supporting the jena six.. Today my school gathered around the schools flag pole to show support for the trial today. Milford Mill Academy, But i hope all goes well. my prayer goes out to the young men.

Baltimore showed alot of love today and support to the young men facing these charges down in jena. My highschool was on the news today for protesting and standing up for what we believe is right . I was suprised that half the school well the whole school was wearing black. My prayers once again goes out to the young men and i hope that justice is served and their set free.

thank you Angel….WE ALL MADE A WONDERFUL DIFFERENCE TODAY

Hey CL…where my photo of me reppin’ Jena 6? I emailed yall about 3 hrs. ago!!

good work angel la……it’s great to go on a gossip site and see this kind of solidarity as well as the information. you wuz robbed at the weblog awards….can’t understand how YBF won….

THIS IS SOMETHING TO KEEP EVERYONE’S HEAD UP.
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow–
You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out–
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit–
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.”

AMEN

GOTS MY BLACK ON!!!!!

FREE JENA 6

I wore mines today also, I felt good today doing it…. Free The Jena 6…

i wore black 2 day as well as the majority of my school.. Clark Atlanta University.. as well as Morehouse N Spelman…there was a crazy amount of support out there 2day..

TODAY MARKS ANOTHER DAY IN HISTORY THAT BLACKS DEMAND A CHANGE. WE ARE STILL FIGHTING FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT WE BELIEVE IN. YOUNG AND OLD TODAY WE UNITED AS ONE IN THE FACES OF THE SAME WHITE GUYS WHO PERFORMED THESE ACTS, THE ONES THAT STILL WILL NEVER LET RACISM GO, AND THE REST OF OUR AMERICANS WATCHING US. WE ARE STILL PRAYING FOR EQUAL RIGHTS AND A CHANGE IN OUR COUNTRY. WE ARE STILL GETTING VIVID IMAGES OF OUR PAST AROUND OUR CHILDREN IN THERE SCHOOLS AND AROUND OUR COUNTRY. LETS CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR CHANGE. NOT ONLY IN ORSELVES BUT THE HEARTS OF OUR CHILDREN OUR COUNTRY OUR CULTURE AND OUR CAUCASIANS ACROSS THE WORLD. LETS BE BLESSED. TIMES BRING ABOUT A CHANGE AND FOR EVERY DARKSIDE IN THE MOUNTAIN A LITTLE SUNSHINE WILL SOON TOUCH IT. GOD BLESS. DILLARD UNIVESITY NEW ORLEANS LA WE SHOW OUR SUPPORT.

DANG, ALL OF MY BLACK SHIRTS ARE DIRTY, BUT ANYWAY, I A SUPPORT THE JENA 6 STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART. JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL.

Oh my gosh, this so heartwarming. Well done to everyone involved for making a stand! Not just the Black community but all the other races who are contributing to let people know they won’t stand for injustice.

I’m glad/proud that so many us realize that this racism ish has been boiling just beneath the surface for awhile now.

It ain’t nothing nice, what’s going on against us in the legal, political, media, and corporate structures all across America.

What’re we going to tackle next, after we win this cause?

I WORE MY BLACK TODAY!!! FREE JENA 6

it’s a joy to see black people united for something beneficial as things.

106&Park’s reppin 4 the Jena6 w/their black on today!

Out of the 4000+ people who have read or skimmed through the Jena 6 article on MSNBC, the average rating for the story and other articles relating to this is a 2.5. This is indicative of the fact that the majority of people in America do not care about this story what so ever. Since we are not in the majority…. I wonder who could have been giving this story low ratings gee I wonder (note the facetious tone)…

No doubt I got my black on!!! I love my people and how we can get together. We need to do it more often to let peolpe know that it’s 2007 and this sh*t will no longer be tolerated. Why do we have to have people speak for us…we need to speak up and speak out! Let it be known, YOU WILL NOT JUST DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT TO US ANYMORE.

WE SHALL OVERCOME….F*CK THAT, WE HAVE AND WILL CONTINUE TO OVERCOME THE BULLSH*T THAT WE ARE FACED WITH EVERYDAY.

This is not a “I want my 40 acres and mule” type of thing. This is a call to my people to get off our asses and DO SOMETHING!!! DO SOMETHING!!!

STAND FOR SOMETHING OR YOU’LL FALL FOR ANYTHING! PLEASE BELIEVE!

I got on my black.. with a little red

I wore my black, but can’t send pics from my phone…Much love tho to everyone else who supported

I just love being BLACK!!!!!! I have on my black and so do alot of people here at NIH in Bethesda MD!!!!!!
