U grčkoj mitologiji postoji priča o tri sestre Gorgone,strašnim čudovištima sa zmijama umjesto kose,krilima i opasnim kandžama te očima koje pretvaraju u kamen svakoga tko bi ih ugledao.Te sestre zvale su se Stena,Eurijala i -Meduza.

Le Bron James
Le Bron James: The $90 Million Man No one can protest the good fortune of another, but it may be wise to look again at the Le Bron James contract of some $90 million with Nike. This $90 million is just the start; he has to be signed by an NBA team for another fortune, and already he has a contract with Upper Deck, one of the leading sports memorabilia companies in the world, for at least $1 million per year and $1 million signing bonus. How will this huge sum of money affect him, and more importantly, how will it affect other young Black males of high school age or graduating from high school? This may be the central question that needs to be looked at. Of young Black males in America at the age of Le Bron James to the age of about 24-years old, more of that age group fill our prison and court system than our colleges and universities. This is a tragic reality, but Blacks need to sell education more than sports as the elevator to greater heights; we need to extol the virtues of an education more than the virtues of basketball; we need to guard against our young relying on false balances and clay feet. It is hard to tell young, unthinking Black boys their route out of the ghetto is through education beyond high school and not basketball when they see Le Bron James coming out of high school and becoming a multimillionaire almost instantly. They only see an 18-years old Black boy, financially set for life through basketball, without the need for further education because in the USA money is the sine qua non for all things. But the Black community of thinkers whose task it is to soberly assess national and international issues and trends should help our young step back from Le Bron James's reality and see their own. Their reality has a vast expanse between a Michael Jordan, Le Bron James and their possibilities and probabilities. We need to help them see, as Dr. Valeau has ably stated, that the surest way for any people to advance themselves is through education. The Culture of Ignorance that is passed from generation to generation among too many poor Blacks blinds the minds of our young to the reality that to set their hopes on basketball or a criminal enterprise (I am not equating the two) as a deliverance method is to stand on feet of clay. Michael Jordan, Le Bron James, Venus and Serena Williams, et al., are phenoms, and that makes them unique. They are not models for healthy thinking young Black males to pattern themselves after. This nation needs educated Black males--they are our warrior class, and we need that class expanded and prepared to carry on; 90% of those Black males in prison is uneducated. We must stress that sports, music, and other entertainments are just that; entertainment is always optional and can be dispensed with at any time. We need educated minds; they cannot be dispensed with easily. We salute and congratulate Le Bron James for his multimillionaire contracts, but he needs to ask himself, what is he to do with this money? Thinking parents cannot allow Le Bron James's lottery to become the active dreams and aspirations of our young warrior class; this class must be pointed, pulled, and shoved in the way of college level education and the life of the mind. Not only is that needed for the good of this Black and white nation, it is needed for our children to become fully actualized and for them to recognize their full potential and development into adulthood and personhood. BET and Rap videos have shown us too many young, wealthy Black males who have no sense of who they are, only that they can buy, and buy they do, showing themselves to be undeveloped human beings with no sense of the dignity of their being.
