A traditional Islamic funeral service was held for Malcolm Shabazz in Oakland, Calif. on May 17th. The service was scheduled to begin 10am PST at the Islamic Cultural Center of Northern California and was followed on Tuesday by a private burial in Hartsdale, New York, where Shabazz’s grandparents are buried. Another memorial service is currently being planned to take place in New York City.
scrolling on a Huffington Post and came across this tragedy, it shocked me . Like I almost cried, it was very sad. R.I.P. Malcolm Shabazz :(
Shabazz, the 28-year-old grandson of Malcolm X, was beaten to death in Mexico City. After a widely publicized troubled youth, Shabazz had recently gained prominence as an outspoken activist.
Two suspects have been arrested in his slaying.

Hair Diary 5/20/13
Soooooooo i fixed my hair somewhat. I finally deep conditioned this african bush on the top of my head lol I used Hollywood Beauty deep conditioner , it was $3 at the beauty supply. It worked really well, it brought my curl pattern back and softened my ends. Then I blew my hair out and twisted my hair with Organics Hair Mayonnaise. It was this good smelling orange cream with herbs in it ughhhh !!! It was $4 and it works wonders no lie. My hair looks and feels way better than 2 days ago. The african bush is tamed hahaha
Morning Thoughts (9:43 a.m.)
No work today, thank jesus !!!! Idk what im doing today maybe sketching maybe my hair later. I wish i could stay home all day and sketch and paint, listen to music . My jobs consist of the most close minded individuals you could possibly meet. Close at one store and open in 5 hours at my second job. I wish I could be a full time artist and designer but for now work has me slaving for $7.75 an hour. Being able to create art and sketch up a 25 peice collection is the only thing that keeps me from losing my fckn mind, without that and God idk what kind of person id be. It allows me unstress and relax, once i pick up a pencil or marker its like blunt. It gives me a high and a good one. Everything that I feel all the pain and depression goes onto an 11x14 sheet of sketchbook paper and when im done the pain is gone.
