Its quite annoying when one of our own expresses interest in changing his ways and he gets shut down because of his past.

Let the people cook and see if the person will go back to his or her old ways before you judge.

Is that so much to ask?

Maya Angelou was a stripper but then she changed and became great. Malcolm X even had a past before he changed and became great. :yeshrug:

People hated christ and still do. Just have to move forward.
Thats the thing. You gotta have followers or supporters to move forward.

If people like them dont get followers or supporters then they will stop.

Many great black people especially in the hood who never got to use their talents and ended up dying unsung and with nothing because nobody wanted to embrace their change and actually went against them for it.

Many unsung people reverted because nobody wanted to embrace their change.

Just saying.

In some respects people especially our people are so tired of being bamboozled. For every one or two refrence of successful change you mention which are great by the way. There's literally a million that are false or fake. Look at all the hopp skipping back and forth mase does from preacher to gangster rapper.

Are people are notoriously targeted because of our kindness and large hearts.
The best advice I could give is just do it! F*ck all that talking the proof is in the pudding. People respond more to actions as opposed to lip service.

Thats the thing. Did he really get much support as a pastor? Or did he lack enough support so he reverted?

Many greats push past the hate and resistance but for those who are unable to thanks to not enough support why fault them?

The sad reality is that in our current community being a G would get more support than someone trying to go a more respectable or peaceful route.

You have to stop worrying about others and live for yourself. You'll never be happy chasing approval. Surround yourself with positive people who are gonna build you up.

To thine own self, be true.
Sometimes I like to try to sway the outsiders on my free time.

I gotta at least try to spread the positivity sometimes.
