..Choose programming carefully.
A few cable programs I like to watch:
Howard University TV | Fairfax County Public School Channels | CSPAN | TVOne | Travel Channel | Discovery Channel's 'How It's Made (that show is awesome) But quite noticeably, none of those items made ever show being made in China. Isn't everything made in China? | Ha!
Books
The Bible | Claude Anderson's 'Black Labor, White Wealth' | Dr. Ben Carson's 'Take The Risk' | Those Featured In the DC Urban LifeStyle Magazine Book Club - http://www.dculs.com/authors.html (check it OUT!)
