Black people are beginning to exercise our freedom.

People who exercise their embryonic freedom day after day, little by little, expand that freedom. People who do not will find that it withers until they are literally ''being lived'.' They are acting out scripts written by parents, associates and society.

It's time for a change and it needs to start right here in the (historically black colleges and universities). Yeah, my hair is low, but if I had locks or twists, I would still be the grade 'A' college student that I am.

Wearing dreads on my head is a part of who I am and I'm not changing because I wouldn't be true to myself.

The beginning of the Palestinian freedom is also a beginning of reconciliation between the two peoples, Palestinian and Israeli.

Many were keen to exercise their freedom of expression on this pressing issue, regardless if they were with or against it.
