Blog-Mama: You Asked For the Info & Here It is


Pardon me family,
I was so caught up in exposing the butcherfied Dr. Jan Adams, I overlooked posting funeral details for
Dr. Donda West.
The info is as follows
(drum beat for allhiphop.com):


**Note: plans are tentative and may change w/o notice**

...The family of superstar rapper Kanye West are making funeral arrangements for Dr. Donda Williams-West in Oklahoma City, who passed away on Saturday.

A spokesperson for Howard-Harris Funeral home told KOCO Channel 5 in Oklahoma City that the family had contacted them in preparation for Dr. West’s funeral.

Kanye West released the following statement:

"Kanye West, his family and friends would like to thank everyone for the outpouring of support and kind words that have come in from across the country since the death of his mother, Dr. Donda West."

"After working in higher education for 31 years, Dr. Donda West and Kanye West co-founded the Kanye West Foundation with the mission of helping to combat the severe dropout problem in high schools across the country. The first and signature initiative of the Kanye West Foundation is Loop Dreams. Designed to capitalize on students' existing interest in hip-hop, Loop Dreams challenges students to learn more about what's behind hip-hop culture in order to help them develop skills, express themselves creatively and be empowered."

Instead of flowers, Kanye West and his family request that donations be made in Dr. West's name to Kanye West Foundation/Loop Dreams Teacher Training Institute at 8560 W. Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, CA 90069. Donations may also be made at www.kanyewestfoundation.org.

***
Class act, just as I've said about Dr. West.
May she rest in peace.
And in the name of Jesus' I pray that the blood of Christ covers Kanye's mind, and may God's perfect way provide peace and serenity to Kanye in due time.

MEDIA ADVISORY

WARREN BALLENTINE "THE PEOPLE’S ATTORNEY" IS CALLING FOR ALL AFRICAN AMERICANS TO PARTICIPATE IN A NATIONAL BLACKOUT"

WHO: Warren Ballentine "The People’s Attorney" and radio Truth Fighter is calling for National Blackout throughout America.

WHAT: Warren is calling for a National Blackout that is necessary for African Americans, and is long over due. Especially with all the present injustices that are being allowed and accepted in America right now. From the situation with Mychal Bell and the Jena 6, Genarlow Wilson, Megan Williams, and all of the nooses being hung all of America lately. Until we have federal legislation regarding hate crimes as African Americans we need to band together to show our "Economic Power" by refusing to spend ANY money from fast food restaurants to gas.

WHY: As African Americans we spend an estimated 715 billion dollars a year, and if we were to stop spending for one day that is 2 billion dollar that will not in the system. However we ask that you don’t make a mad dash to the stores days prior or the days following. If the stores have a major increase in sales right before or right after the Blackout than we will create the impact we need.

WHEN: Friday, November 2, 2007

WHERE: Nationwide Blackout for ALL African Americans
****
America, for those of us who couldn't participate directly with Jena6...here's another chance. We want to put a dent in retailers' pockets. One thing i've noticed people are QUICK TO COMPLAIN, but slow to act. Here's your chance to be counted. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING ON NOV 2ND. It's one day. SHOP BEFORE, AFTER, OR BOTH.
Parents...please teach your children about history.
We have some of the clueless (i.e., dumb) children walking around here, because PARENTS, GUARDIAN ETC do not TALK TO THEIR CHILDREN.
Spread the word...DO NOT MAKE PURCHASES ON NOV 2ND.
Stop talking...and start walking. Be counted.
