Predisposition...

Predispose: to incline or influence beforehand; to make susceptible.


That word just sounds like something bad is about to happen. They say we are all time bombs walking, waiting for the boom. We are all predisposed to some disease and or condition from birth. Family histories of sed diseases/conditions give you a 50/50 chance of developing/contracting sed disease/condition.

Black people in general are predisposed to high blood pressure, testicular cancer, sickle cell, colon cancer, thyroid conditions, and diabetes among others. But we do nothing to stop the cycle. Myself included. I'm diabetic, I do as the doctors say, and yet it isnt improving. It has yet to get to a good place. Now they have to check to make sure my pancreas isn't malfunctioning. Oh Joy!

As strong as our familial histories may be we need to join the fight in finding cures and eradicating these disesases/conditions.

WAKE UP... WE ARE KILLING OURSELVES JUST AS FAST AS WE ARE KILLING EACH OTHER!
