I am not one to gossip or to issue conjecture or to surmise or to spout prophecy but maybe the spirit communication of richard allen is reminding us that we must watch were we swim and who and what we worship, maybe the sacrifice of crispus attucks and the power of his soul still sends messages that freedom is not here until we all are free, maybe john russwurm and the vibration of laying print type still burns in our collective memory that we must speak for ourselves.
Recent events in the philadelphia area , nyc, and boston area in this dawning age of obama perhaps have stirred philadelphia richard into action to remind us that we do not have to beg or pay to swim any longer where we are not wanted.... maybe the obama dictate of no excuses during the naacp NYC convention was riled by russworm's creation of the first black newspaper in 1827 near the african burial ground reminding us that we can control our media, we are no longer victims, yes we can.... maybe crispus attucks, part black part indian had to step up once again in the hometown of paul revere and to spirit shout, to proclaim from the porch steps in cambridge,our foes are coming, our foes are coming, do not follow that policeman out of your house, but follow your people, believe in the power of your people and not your degree........
