BAJITOBLOG

BajitoBlog is a collection of writings from within my personal life and my work to build a better underground society for all members of the community who do not necessarily fit in with mainstream standards, lifestyles, behavior, etc. I believe we can be our own person, a good and peaceful person without having to conform to mainstream society. In the words of Albert Einstein, my cerebral hero, 'Del you are on the right track' - don't ever let nobody get you down...'

Some people think i live a fascinating life although i strive to be as humble as i can. but i found that if i ever give it all up - many people would be let down and many people would give up their own personal struggle if they ever see me give up or quit. believe me i have wanted to quit my work a million times and secretly i did. i would say 'no more of this' i'm going to sneak away and start myself a new life like other people have in the real world. then i would get a letter from a kid i never even met or an inmate somewhere i didn't even know and they would tell me how wonderful it was that i was doing so much for others and because of my struggle they had turned their lives around. man i hated those letters i would say to myself MAN! I hate it! i have not gotten five minutes into my new free from the struggle life and yet if i ever did leave it - these two lives may not have ever felt some love in their lives. life is so good when you let go and let God. it took me so many years of fighting to let go and let God rule in my world. Now i just follow Him and my life is so simple i can actually say i enjoy it! :)

BAJITO ONDA AFRICA FOUNDATION

My sons Mao and Amidu as well Alex and Maz of Rwanda - Gathech in Kenya and Kanelli in Tanzania are all doing great jobs in establishing and running BO in African countries. We are now working and closing our network tighter with the United Nations which is really doing a great job around the world.

Mao, my dear son in Senegal writes to me in English - but yesterday he called me and his spoken english kept us from totally understanding each other - since i do not speak French. however we are managing to continue to grow the foundation no matter what obstacles we are encountering.

Amidu i hear is this week in France meeting with the UN - while son Antonio Melin in Mexico is meeting with UN officials from NY in assisting us with funding in the future via the UN Youth Caucus and other assists from UNICEF - UNESCO and other UN branches.

We are the voices of the oppressed - but we are not ignorant so therefore we have sought out each other - and banded together to change the world one country at a time - with my own being the hardest to even gain support from - the USA -

i was so surprised to hear members of the UN when i met with them in Mexico 2004 that they felt the USA had no social problems - at least they had not heard of them - because we have so much money - they thought money had fixed all our problems. HA!

Now they know the truth of America and how horrible our inner city crime is - how horrible our prisons are - and how dangerous it is to even try to live here.

I am ashamed when africans come here and i have to tell them that they cannot smile at strangers or they may become victimized. they are horrified.

They do not know what racisim is and my dear son Amidu when he was here - had never heard of Elvis. Well i didn't even go into who Elvis was. it was mute point.

I just wanted to say hi and sorry for my long absence - i will try to do better.

but with our org growing so much so fast - it is hard on me to keep everyone posted all the time.

God Bless Us all and please help us where and when and how you can.

PROGRESS AT LAST!

I as usual have not time to write but i sure want to let the readers know what is going on at BO GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS as it seems we are becoming after many forgotten years in the trenches - well not forgotten but ignored. so stay tuned because this week we are coming out in WORLD MAGAZINE and next week NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO will be here at Bajito Onda - then I will be a featured panelist at the International Hispanic Journalists Conference in Ft. Worth. What an honor after all these years of struggle. Mandalit del Barco of Los Angeles from NPR invited me to be a panelist. That is going to be so great. Last year was the U.N. and this year we have already been featured in NEWSWEEK. last year was NY TIMES MAGAZINE. so we are climbing folks. heading for that goal post in the sky! Keep us always in your prayers!
