May 19, 1925 – February 21, 1965


Malcolm X lived half his life advocating the idealism of Divide & Rule, upon visiting Mecca his eyes were opened to the concept of All Men Being Equal; for speaking of this revelation he was murdered!

UK Irony!


The government have shown us who the real criminals are, the cause of the moral collapse of our society & the reason the banking system has failed us; it’s the disabled collecting benefits and the elderly for having an extra bedroom.

I blame the immigrants, only 88% of them are willing to work & the muslims, they have come to the UK to steal our natural recourses & rebuild our infrastructure.

The elderly deserve to get their pensions cut!

If we attack Syria we will draw Iran into a war.
Iran will back Syria. 
Iran has the worlds 3rd biggest oil supply.

1973 An Angel In A Red Polka Dot Dress





I was exited; my friend Marcia was taking me to see the new Wattstax movie in Leicester Square. The main attraction was Rufus Thomas performing “The Funky Chicken”; it would be my first time seeing the various the American soul artists, which I had been listening to, in action. The movie was great, the music funky and the dancing mesmerising; then there she was, the girl in the red polka dot dress dancing for 35 glorious seconds, an angel with smooth black thighs, dress so short that you momentarily glimpsed her white panties, but most of all she danced like a funky dream. I have loved the girl in the red polka dot dress ever since that moment.

Manassah’s 1st real life club experience...


Whilst I was cooking of Friday night my son showed me a dance he learnt from youtube & asked me to show him the moves properly which I happily did; he was very exited that I could do it with such ease & then elaborate the style incorporating some different footwork that he had never seen before; he was very impressed. He filmed it & went to his room; he shuffled around all night; he has never shown interest in dance.

On Saturday night he went to Club Fabric his first adults nightclub, but not with his whole crew; only 2 of them went. He returned home on Sunday at midday having danced for 12 hours; his friend said he has a big crowd around him cheering him on.

He couldn’t wait to show me his new skills; the arm movements are his own improvisation.

St Tropez 1981

I don’t know where to start or what I’m willing to reveal about this episode in my life; a crazy time with many incidents. I will be out of sequence with the timing of events but will tell as I remember. I hung out with pimps, prostitutes, hells angels, deserters from the foreign legion, defectors from British justice, and anyone else who would buy me a meal. I begged, stole, borrowed, burgled, dealt drugs, committed fraud, pimped and prostituted myself. I worked on building sites, on a boat, in a casino and washed dishes. 

Stop Paying Fines, Taxes & Hyped Up Utility Bills & A Change Will Come




We all know that a change is coming, not just in politics, but in the world; our governments are clinging to the old regime.

We’re in an economic system where banks and large corporations effectively run governments. The governments can’t challenge them because they need the taxes to keep the failed system going. A system that no one has the imagination to change, least of all the politicians.

I pulled up at a set of red traffic lights; there was a sickening skidding and then crashing sound, my whole world span out of control with twisting screeching metal and flashing blue lights. The police who witnessed the crash assumed I was dead; I had been hit from the rear by a juggernaut, the driver had not seen the red lights or me, so it would seem.

To be continued...

War represents the supreme failure of man to resolve our differences; it is a hefty price to pay for our failings.

True Originals And Instigators (Jan Kincaid - Diana Brown and the brothers and the Brand New Heavies)




I remember Jay Strongman was playing "Think" by Lyn Collins, it must have been only the second or third time we had heard it, the hardness of the groove drove us wild. Suddenly, as if on cue, in strolled Barrie with Lascelle’s cousin, Garry Russell, they both started seriously getting down on the dance floor. They made a strong impression on us, wide eyed youngsters, the passion and confidence in their dancing and the way they dressed; they were both wearing blue blazers, John Smedleys, dark cropped Levi’s and Bass Weejuns penny loafers, with no socks. It was the best advert for a club I had ever seen; when they later approached us with a flyer for The Cat in the Hat club, we knew there was no way that we were not going to go to this event. 

When In doubt I refer to this message


Barrie Sharpe - The mere need that they think they must attack you illustrates that you and your intelligence has ignited a fear that they have vested within them, an intelligent individual who is willing to share his wisdom amongst the masses. Keep doing what you do and how you do it, you'll always have back up. Your words and diction lure, but on closer inspection the content is the lethal weapon.

Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner


October 31st 1993 - My son Manassah was born. Time to grow up and participate in the real world, to progress I would have to change. In my teens I watched a movie called “Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner”, starring Sydney Poitier, a film regarding the politics of interracial marriage in 1960’s America. I remember this movie due to a very meaningful speech that Sydney Poitier expressed to his father. His father was telling of the many sacrifices he and his wife had made to put their son through college, he talked of the 75,000 miles he had walked as a postman carrying a heavy post-bag, to secure his son’s future; he was a man who put his son before everything. The son replies, “Let me tell you something, I owe you nothing, you did what you were supposed to do because you brought me into this world and from that day you owed me everything that you will ever do for me. You don’t own me, you can’t tell me when or where I’m out of line or try to get me to live my life according to your rules”. As a father I followed this principle, my son owes me nothing no matter the sacrifices I would have to make, it was my choice.
