Sorry for the delay on this update!!! Here is the newest info about the Jena 6.

After thousands rallied yesterday in Jena, Louisiana in the defense of the Jena 6, many hoped that the hearing for Mychal Bell today would result in him being released on bail. But that was not the case.

Mychal Bell, the sole defendant who remains behind bars from the group of teens known as the “Jena 6,” will not be released Friday, a court decided.

Bell, 17, has been in jail since his arrest more than nine months ago.

It was not immediately clear what happened in court Friday, where Bell’s attorneys had planned to push for his release.

“It is our understanding that the judge refused to give bond or bail to Mychal Bell today,” the Rev. Al Sharpton, a civil rights activist who traveled to Jena for Thursday’s rally, said in a written statement. [ READ MORE ]

Don’t let this dishearten you. Did you see all the support the Jena 6 received yesterday? This is not over.

An adult and a minor were arrested in Alexandria, Louisiana after police saw two nooses hanging from a red pickup truck.

Petty Officer 2nd class Casanova Love of the U.S. Navy was the person who sent a photo to CNN’s I-Report. Love was in town from his station in Hawaii to visit family. He and some friends were standing outside a club when the truck drove by and passed a large group of Jena 6 protesters. That is when the police pulled them over.

When asked why he sent the photo in he responded to CNN with, “People need to see this. It’s 2007, and we still have fools acting like it’s 1960.”\

Tired Of Being Stepped On

Sunday, September 23, 2007 /

Wow. Idk what it will take for “massa loving and protecting” coons to sever the misplaced lines of loyalty to the white mindset and seek retreat from their institutionalized state of mind enslavement. We have tried to preach, march, cry, plead, boycott, defend and befriend our way into the conscience of white minds for centuries with very little or virtually no retribution at all. Do we actually think that silent marches and fight the power rallies will breach the disposition of our oppressors?

So Judah, What is Christ’s message when it comes to race relations?

I invoke the name of MLK because I really believe that his view of the way the world should be was spot on. Institutionalized mind enslavement?!? Wow…I’d rather call it common sense and being grounded in reality. I don’t turn to “white America” for help, nor do I turn to “black America” for that matter. I lean on myself and develop my own points of view on issues. What I’ve found is that both whites and blacks tend to have an extreme view of almost everything, and that the truth usually lies somewhere in the middle.

My husband and I like to play a little game when we discuss having children - basically what will we name them and whether it’s better to have a little boy or a little girl. After seeing things like this and the consequences, I’m inclinded to say, I don’t want to bring a child into this world.

I’m afraid that no matter what I would teach my black son - that if he makes a mistake or if someone just has it in for him because of his beautiful skin - it won’t matter if he has morals, God and common sense. He’s still a n***er and that’s the only way they will see him.

I’m afraid my black daughter won’t have a black man around to marry and have a life with.

I am just afraid for our youth period. I will continue to pray for the families and donate what I can when I can do their defense funds.

See this is the reason Blacks need to stick together. We tear down our own race so much (gang violence, rape, drug dealing, ect.) and especially calling each others nigga. How can we expect other races to take us seriously. We want the ones in power or who have a voice to speak intelligently and all they want to do is make a dollar off of our oppression yes ( RAPPERS) when we should educate and bind together. This is why White folks do have a problem with their hatred towards us because we hate ourselves. Wake up Black People don’t nobody owe us anything we have the power to rise up. Look at our History we done it before but there was unity. Stop thinking of a way out of the Hood build up the Hood. Encourage your neighbors to do something more than have babies and receive a welfare check. Encourgage your sons to do more than create a new rap song. Stop being Consumers and start being Creative. You don’t need to buy everything you see on T.V we (Black People) need the Station, the rights to be on wallstreet in the White House and developing more than clothing lines to create more Consumers. GET IT TOGETHER BLACK PEOPLE OR YOU HAVN’T SEEN THE LAST OF MORE RACISM.

Whites are getting crazy again…on the news last night their was a couple in LI (guy,black- girl, white). He was jumped by an all white gang. And the guy gets assault bought against him….wow. Another crime- a couple of days ago after a basketball game here in the city- a couch and a couple of players were jumped and had racial slurs yelled at them and once again the whites were not charged. I really don’t feel bad about not caring or contributing to what happened in Sep 2001. There are 5 things I would never do such as:

Spit on a white person, if they were on fire…
call the cops if they were bleeding to death…
help them out in any giving situation….
take them in if they were homeless….
pray for them…..

LMFAOOOO! And co-sign 100%

@SouthernBelle, I just don’t want to believe that you are black but I have this sad and disgusted feeling that you are. I just wanted to remind you that after u finish sucking YT nuts make sure you wipe your chin off. You and a couple of others on this post are a disgrace to our race. Don’t you know YT don’t give a f^k about you? I guess seeing is believing for you. Uncle Toms like you need to be hung by nooses to bring you back to reality. And the reality is whether you hate or not, YT STILL CONSIDERS YOUR ASS BLACK!

You also said: “I KNOW BEATING UP A PERSON BECAUSE HE CALLED YOU A N WORD IS UNEXCEPTABLE. DO YOU KNOW HOW IT FEEL TO GET JUMP BY MORE THEN TWO PEOPLE.”
Now I see why you are upset. Because the white boy was jumped on. Seems like you done got your a$$ willy-womped a couple of times before. Maybe a group of people beat the brakes off you? Just judging by your ignorance on this post I am not the least bit surprised. Your wanna be cracka a$$ probably deserved.

The Plan of Salvation

: Please, please, please give your life over too Jesus Christ today, right now!

We want to share with you how you can be saved and know you are going to Heaven. This is the most important decision you will ever make.

Jesus said to Nicodemus in John 3:3, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

God tells us in the book of Romans, (and throughout the Bible) that there are four things a person needs to know to be saved.

1. All have sinned, and are separated from God. That means if you consider yourself a “good” person before God, you aren’t ready to be saved. Everyone of us has broken at least one of God’s ten commandments. Therefore, we are all sinners.

Romans 3:10, “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.”
Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”
Isaiah 64:6, “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteous nesses are as filthy rags.”

2. The price for sin is death and hell. The consequence of our sin is eternal separation from a righteous and holy God.

Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death.”
Revelation 21:8, “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

3. The good news is: Jesus paid the sin debt for all who will place the trust in Him as Savior. Notice in Revelation 21:8 above it refers to the unbelieving. The greatest sin of all is rejecting Christ, the blameless, Lamb of God Who suffered on a cross to pay our sin debt that we could not pay.

Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans 5:8-10, “But God commend His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.”

4. Call upon the name of the Lord to be saved. Do you see yourself as a sinner? Do you understand how a sinless One could take the place of the one (you and me) condemned because of our guilt? Are you willing to make Jesus the Lord (boss) of your life, and do you desire to live for Him? That doesn’t mean you have to be perfect now, but it does mean you have to be willing to do what He tells you. It is the most important and wonderful decision you can make.

Romans 10:9-10, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
Romans 10:13, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Ephesians 2:8-9, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Since Jesus is willing to take you right now, just as you are, and forgive you your sins and come into your heart to save you, would you be willing to bow your head right now, and ask Jesus to be the Lord and Savior of your life? Only then will you find true peace, true completeness, true hope, true joy.

Pray something like this:
Dear Jesus, I confess I am a sinner deserving death and hell. I believe You rose from the dead on the third day and that the sacrifice You made with Your own blood on the cross was the only acceptable payment for my sin. Please come into my heart, and be my Lord and Savior from this day forward. Lead, guide, and direct my steps daily. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

The words you say do not save, Jesus does. Put your faith in him. Then get yourself a Bible and read the book of John. If you have trusted Christ as your personal Lord and Savior as a result of reading this, please e-mail us and let us know - bishopwinfree057@aol.com

“All my life long I had panted
For a draught, from some clear spring,
That I hope would quench the burning
Of the thirst I felt within.
Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings
Thru His blood I now am saved.”

Jimmy Russell speaks from his soul to his loving true friends here online: It’s God’s will that everyone comes to Jesus Christ and give their lives too Him, Please, will you come to Jesus today, yes right now make Christ Lord of your life and home this I beg you with tears in my eyes, PLEASE, Don’t let it be said it’s too late and you leave this world without making Christ your Lord.

When will Black/African-American people step up to the plate? The crime was done, and now we want to pull the race card. Come on! Wake up! We will never “overcome” if we keep acting the way we do. MX, Dr. King, R.Parks and many more would be ashamed. I know I am.

The fact Bell is still in jail and he has no way of posting bond shows me just how unprepared black america is for anything negative to come its way. We can protest but we can’t come together and raise money? We fight so damn hard to be in white neighborhoods, white corporations, white schools, and even white stores but we don’t have any black businesses where we can depend on our own. Does anyone else see how fucked up we are? We can keep marching and shouting, but just who are we doing it for and why? This is not the 60’s. This is 2008. A new damn year, and yet we keep using the same tactics to fight racism that rosa and mlk did. Are we crazy? There are people out there wanting to kill us, wanting to take our lively hood and this is how we fight back? No we aren’t prepared. We aren’t even prepared mentally so how the hell are we going to fight back? Amazing.

I have signed the damn petitions, and I even wore black but then I asked myself is this really going to make a difference? I had hopes that it would, but then I realized that we have been doing the same shit for years and nothing has changed. You want to know how I really felt? I kind of felt stupid, because the end result is Bell is still in jail and the other boys’ lives are screwed until they are six feet under. I get annoyed when I see black folks fighting so hard to gain a piece of whatever others have instead of working together to do for themselves. We are so much more than marching, begging, and whining. We are leaders. We are strong. We are intelligent. We could have all came together and bailed Bell out, and flipped the justice system the bird while doing so. We can be self-sufficient where we don’t have to depend on anyone but ourselves. If you think for a damn minute that mlk solely wanted blacks to hold hands with whites and sing sweet loves songs while pining for integration you were sadly mistaken. Yes he hoped for a day where all people could be judged solely on the basis of their character, but that day isn’t here. What a lot of people don’t know is that he also wanted black people to be knowledgable about investing their money, building up their communities, ya know doing for themselves so when they are shunned out of certain places they still have their areas to go home to. Looking up to only what made king half the man he was is setting us up for failure. King was a smart and compassionate man full of fire. He wanted better not only for all people but for black people especially. We have got to do better. Bell and others like him are depending on us to do better. We have just have to you all.
