FTP MOVEMENT

FOR THE PEOPLE * MAMA'S ARMY * MOTHERS OF BLACK & BROWN BABIES

WHAT IS THE FTP MOVEMENT?


The FTP Movement is a machine and what makes the machine work is the belief in family ties, trust, loyalty, integrity, discipline and punctuality.

The FTP Movement is an innovative community whirlwind and recognized organizational conglomerate. A bright vivid picture of the changing of the guards, the Movement’s primary focus is to serve as an activator of the community. The FTP Movement is a strong advocate of building institutions and providing practical solutions for the people. We believe in putting theory into practice by implementing viable programs that actually benefit those who need them most.

The FTP Movement deals with a plethora of issues including (but not limited to); Education, hunger, homelessness, police brutality, political prisoners, health, youth development and gang intervention.

FTP is an acronym that means For The People, Feed The People, Fruition Through Persistence, Free The Prisoners or whatever else you can think of in any given situation.

Taking on the mantra “Elders for counsel, Youth for war”, FTP has a proven magnetic attraction amongst the youth. FTP has been able to maintain it’s stay along the vein of youth culture, because we keep our finger on the pulse. We are successful amongst the youth, because we are constantly surrounded by the youth. When we say youth we are generally speaking about people under 40. We seek advice from those who came before us, and we modernize our methods to organize more effectively.

The Pendulum Effect

Mumia Abu-Jamal
[col. writ. 11/1/09] (c)

A lot of psychological, emotional, social and economic energy goes into this political business.

Billions of dollars fill campaign coffers, and friendships, not to mention marriages, are severely tried by conflicting allegiances to competing parties.

But, if you look at this thing close enough -- or long enough -- a funny thing emerges -- it's what I call 'the pendulum effect.'

It's the tendency of politics to shift from one position to and opposite o… Continue

Sacramento County Declares H1N1 Emergency, Health Alert Metallic Metals Found In Enriched Foods!!!!

SOME OBSERVATIONS ON "ENRICHED" FOOD PRODUCTS
OVERVIEW


In today's modern supermarket, it is very difficult to avoid packaged foods that are labeled as being "enriched." Indeed, just about the only sure way to avoid such adulterated food products is to purchase just fresh fruits and produce. To be fair, modern food processing has made a significant contribution to the wide dissemination of foods to populations that would otherwise have a great deal of difficulty in feeding themselves. How… Continue

THE TRUTH AND ITS CONSEQUENCES, WHY MUSLIM SPOKESPERSON SOFT SELL RACIST POLITICAL REPRESSION

This is so familiar. The Media-Police two-step is tight. Muslims are
afraid to say anything sounding "militant" so they act bewildered and
put upon - rather than talk about the history of racist repression they act as if
a distinction between "criminal and political" is relevant in the
murder of an African-American Imam, as if criminalization of Black
peoples political and religious organizations is unusual, or that
there are no politics involved in criminal law enforcement in the
Black communit… Continue
