\"Martian<\/div>\n


\nCrack is the looming unearthly invader in my life as someone raised in a the inner city BC ( Before Crack ).<\/strong>
\nCrack transformed my neighborhood into a ” Hood ” with all that entails. We devolved from a Southern-fried version of the Cosby Show to an all Black real life production of Escape From New York, which cast me in the improbable role\u00a0 of Snake Plissken ( LOL ).
\n
\nI can’t forgive crack dealers for the humanity they stole from my neighborhood. Like literal scenes from a George Romero zombie movie furniture began vanishing from porches so frequently they had to either be brought in or with my grand parents chained to the porch railing.<\/strong>
\n\"Diary<\/a>
\nCrack heads began wondering the streets like the famed director’s undead nit looking for people to eat but rocks to smoke with equal vigor.<\/strong>
\nAll the horror and science fiction movies I watched with my grandfather were prequels to this bleak new reality for Inner City America.
\nI compare the roll call of cities hit by Soviet missiles in the movie Damnation Alley to those crack ravaged from the 80s forward.<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nThe Martians and nameless aliens in Independence Day were more merciful: they offered extinction level death ray assault with explanation or mercy.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nCrack dealers prefer slow motion attrition so they can profit for decades off addicts\u00a0 hungry for what’s destroying them.
\nMutants in the original Planet of The Apes series at least got telekinetic powers in exchange for radiation deformed bodies.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n
\nIn real life crack heads only got whatever flights of fancy each hit lauches inside brains and bodies wasting away before their wide glassy eyes.<\/strong>
\nI’m one of those who watched this erupt around him- just like in a Romero zombie. I fought it back home and anywhere else!
\n\"Dawn<\/a>
\n
\nOne day life proceeds as normal until an invisible\u00a0 point of no return is crossed without warning… or mercy!!!<\/strong>
\nSo far, the War of the Worlds within Inner City America has the invaders and zombies winning.
\nI am legend perhaps?
\n\"A<\/a>
\n
\nNot hardy.<\/strong>
\nLike Enoch the intelligent lizard man from the original Land of The Lost TV series,
\n\"Land
\n
\nI’m cursed\/blessed ( take your pick ) to remember what the Hood was like before a real life war of The World hit it.<\/strong>
\nAs a caretaker of a lost culture of dignity and hope all I can do is fight the Good Fight; champion these values and find others who practice the same.
\nThat’s my report as a remnant of the Hood before a literal War of the Worlds conquered it!

\nWe owe the Freedom Riders; Dr King:\u00a0 Malcolm X and our generations an apology if we let crack dealers; crack heads; thug culture i.e. chocolate Klansmen erase all we fought to institute.
\nIn the TV series ” V” mankind took up arms against their invaders.<\/p>\n
