PROFESSOR MANNING MARRABLE DEAD AT AGE 60

The voice of Manning Marable was a strong one against injustice in America. He will be missed; not in the "trenches" of the liberation struggle where, we for the most part, serve By Choice; and it is not that he used his considerable journalistic skills to cover us who operate Near the Frontline [how else could we cover the battlefield to lend whatever journalistic support possible] to our Frontline (Revolutionary) Workers]: it is that Manning Marable's Voice could be depended on to give a sincere assessment, from his Black Marxist perspective about our battles, within the bastions of the power slots where he chose to serve - slanted, or bent enough to the "right" that allowed him to maintain his good standing in his company.

His transition should also be a wake up call to the "Conscious" Amongst us, who have survived Oppression in the United States of America to get near the Eldership plateau of 60: 60 to 70 is a tough decade to get through. If you are still in your 50's, start preparing to do battle NOW! [if it is not good for you, DON'T EAT IT!); treat your Spiritual Self at least as well as you do your physical body; and above everything else, share with some young people how you were able to survive and still be relevant from the time you because conscious (if i have to spell out what i mean by "conscious" - unfortunately you are beyond words at my command to explain (partly facieous).
