By choosing to be a part of Flash/Black, you're add your voice to the growing collective that demands proper representation & accountability in all aspects of daily living. Too often have I personally bemoaned the news and entertainment directed at me (and people that look like me) as trivial, insulting, and damaging to the fabric and perception of the people it’s supposed to represent, inform, or

entertain. It has been my feeling that “Reality Television” too often depicts black women as shallow, angry, combative, conniving and loud, while it in turn depicts black men as violent, dishonest, disloyal (to their women and children), and unreliable. Meanwhile, many in the Hispanic and Asian communities find little to no representation, and much of what they do find tends to lack dimension, often playing to tired stereotypes. By choosing to be a part of Flash/Black, you can add your voice to the growing collective that demands better representation and accountability from the content providers they choose. We are flawed because we are human, but, we choose to acknowledge and celebrate the beauty of our people in as many facets of life as humanly possible. There is a power in recognizing that you do have a choice. There is power in you. There is power in the recognition that we are all minorities in some regard, and accepting that rather than considering ourselves as such, empowers us to choose to become a multicolored majority. We all are a part of the human race, and we all come from one place and one source. Let’s Flash/Black to a remembrance of this, and embrace each other. Sincerely,

H. Lee Bennett, III AKA DaVinci Parks
Founder/CEO, Flash/Black

National Day of Mourning - The Suppressed Speech of Wamsutta (Frank B.) James, Wampamoag
To have been delivered at Plymouth, Massachusetts, 1970
ABOUT THE DOCUMENT: Three hundred fifty years after the Pilgrims began their invasion of the land of the Wampanoag, their "American" descendants planned an anniversary celebration. Still clinging to the white schoolbook myth of friendly relations between their forefathers and the Wampanoag, the anniversary planners thought it would be nice to have an Indian make an appreciative and complimentary speech at their state dinner. Frank James was asked to speak at the celebration. He accepted. The planners, however , asked to see his speech in advance of the occasion, and it turned out that Frank James' views — based on history rather than mythology — were not what the Pilgrims' descendants wanted to hear. Frank James refused to deliver a speech written by a public relations person. Frank James did not speak at the anniversary celebration. If he had spoken, this is what he would have said: ...
