 Does
putting youth in prisons with adults make sense? What are the options?
WASHINGTON�It makes no
sense to try youth offenders in adult courts, a new report has
determined, suggesting that experts find new ways to reduce juvenile
crime and its spiraling costs.
The report also alarmingly cites the disproportional confinement of
Black youth between the ages of 10-17, a group that comprises 15 percent
of the U.S. population in that age group. 
Reparations battle is the

 The
Serious of our word
by Minister Louis Farrakhan
To look at marriage as
only the legalization of the sex act is to put our minds on a level
that will not bring the best out of the experience. To become extreme
in our view that the sex act is only for procreation and not meant by
Allah (God) to give pleasure to married couples is a view that is not
in accord with the Will, Plan and Purpose of Allah (God).
