Emancipation Now. Wake up from the dream!
You may be dreaming that your DEITY looks nothing like you. You may dreaming that the HAIR your DNA provides isn't for you. You may be dreaming that life would be better if you had more MONEY. You may be dreaming that you have to mimic what's in, what's popular, or what EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING for acceptance. You may be dreaming that you can't have HEAVEN ON EARTH. You may be dreaming that you have to attend COLLEGE to be SUCCESSFUL. You may be be dreaming that you're not BEAUTIFUL and that you're not already perfect.
Well ... it's time to WAKE UP! FREE your mind. Emancipate NOW!

Day 8: The Immortal Goddess of Medicine; Henrietta Lacks
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells—taken without her knowledge in 1951—became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, in vitro fertilization, and more. Henrietta’s cells have been bought and sold by the billions, yet she remains virtually unknown, and her family can’t afford health insurance.
