Cyril Neville Article Speaks Truth

RECEIVED Fri., April 28, 2006

Robert Gabriel:
   Mr. Gabriel, your article speaks truth ["Cyril Neville Tells It Like It Is," April 28]. I don't think many folks are ready (or willing) to wrap their heads around the issues of which you speak. Folks would rather put more energy into talking about anything but the realness. Thanks for being "that guy." Most folks won't discuss race issues and gentrification on that level. Not only did you discuss it; it's published on the cover. Thanks for holding it down for all people. Maybe your article (and Mr. Neville) will encourage folks to have more constructive discussions about the fascist regime that terrorizes all of us, not just black folks.
