Bush was still much better than Al "The Sky is Falling Climate Change Hoaxer" Gore would have been as the POTUS. I was stating that Barack Obama was an inconsequential blind pawn who was played by the white liberal power structure against the sheer ignorance of Black America, which it can count on to be dumb, stupid, ignorant and grossly uninformed all at the same time every day of the year. A little over a year and a half into his first term, it became more than obvious that he had absolutely no idea what he was doing as a POTUS. Not bad for community organizing orator, whom (Walmart Obama) Hakeem Jeffries gets his talking point cues from. The key lies in not trying to get others think and vote like you do, but to simply get them to pay attention, which is a basic fundamental concept that liberal Black America just can't seem to grasp.

An idiot's effort.

The older generation didn't think much of those rappers. C. Delores Tucker wasn't impressed with them. She lobbied to get that Parental Advisory sticker on tapes and CDs. Today's artists do far more interviews than their predecessors did 35 years ago. Many folks clowned Eazy-E's high pitched voice. Definitely had to respect his business acumen.

Right. There are movie theaters here with full service bar and a food menu. The seats recline and have tray tables attached. The vibe feels like watching a movie while sitting in a restaurant. It's not a cheap movie experience though. The tab will be no less than $100 for two people.

It's no different from people listening to preachers. The fact remains that those who do have a following could make things happen if they were inclined to change their grift into nation-building. The church building fund could become a school especially when the members are already sitting in a big azz church building. The sacrifice would be for the greater good of future generations of our people. Dr. MLK Jr. and brother Malcolm X had naysayers while they were alive. It didn't stop them from doing the work. Despite n8gglets all over the place, things have changed for FBA/AfroAmericans since the time those men were assassinated. It takes a special person who's willing to lay down their life for others. Especially knowing some are ungrateful and undeserving of the sacrifice. The Nigerians agreed with the strike. They didn't execute it themselves. Let another man fight the battles and rest assured that he'll take over the house, bed and women too. Exactly. The US will get rid of your terrorists and control the black gold too. That's why a handful of Nigerians are driving Bentleys and Benzes on dirt roads up to mansions in the middle of nothing. Black folks should own the entertainment they provide. Not just be employees. Eliminate the problem. Kill the abuser or have them killed. Nothing wrong with enjoying entertainment. Right. I can entertainment myself. I don't have to enrich white folks with it. We literally cannot afford to walk and chew gum at the same time in that regard. NF Jr. was referring to as it relates to dismantling the system of racism white supremacy and replacing it with a system of justice. It wasn't necessarily about building alliances with other Black folks. In fact, it was no contact until we had our own sh8t together. It's spread out over various factions and organizations. Other than religion, Black men usually do not follow other men who talk a lot and produce nothing. If there is an inkling or proof that a man is full of sh8t, another man definitely won't be following him. Some.Black men gave Dr. Umar Johnson a pass for a little over a decade before they cashed in their chips and left the table. If Dr. Umar Johnson had produced something tangible instead of grifting under the guise of building a school, he would potentially be a leader of men. Most dudes could see through Dr. Umar Johnson within 10 minutes of him talking and blinking and repeating himself.

ProfD It starts with looking in the mirror. Build strategic alliances with folks who think similarly. For example, the influencers and podcasters do have a following. Grow from there. Most of their following is as a result of sensationalism and friction....not productivity, facts, and building. Most people who support them and give money do so to hear them gossiping and criticizing and fighting against other Black people. If they start talking about let's build a hospital or school or so something positive...their subscribers would drop like hot rocks...lol. They love the drama. I stay on the bumper of non-FBA folks in my clan. They understand both sides of it. I can't say the same. Although I'm intimate with a few, I don't have any Africans or West Indians that I know of in my family. There's always something to be done about it. People don't want to sacrifice anything especially their freedom or life. Can you really blame them? Especially when you look at the type of "thanks" they often get for making that sacrifice. Look at many of the sacrifices the Civil Rights generation made, and look at how some of these young dudes come on social media with nappy beards dogging them and claiming how they didn't do anything for the community and didn't leave a legacy. It used to be sacrilegious to criticize the Civil Rights generation......not anymore. Who wants to sacrifice for a people as ungrateful and obnoxious as that? The Nigerians should have eliminated Isis if they were a problem in their country. Maybe they didn't see them as a problem. About half if not more of Nigeria is Muslim. The West sees them as a problem, but maybe Nigeria didn't. On top of that.....that's Nigeria's problem to deal with, not the West's That's like China launching strikes into Los Angeles and killing people they called "Crips" while claiming they were doing it to save the lives of the Bloods who were being slaughtered through gang warfare. That's none of China's business...lol. Countries should fight their own battles first. I understand. But it wasn't a sincere fight....Trump was just flexing. Some even say it's really about oil and trying to take Nigeria's resources. There's plenty black folks can do to break the system of racism white supremacy. The main thing is we could stop enriching them in everything from providing entertainment to shopping in their establishments. While you're right...this entertainment is the only thing that keeps some of our people from going crazy UNDER the system. It's like taking the drugs away from a drug addict who is being sexually abused. The reason they started using drugs was because of the sexual abuse. Take the drugs away and they'll have no other way to deal with it and may go stone crazy. Entertainment (and drugs) are often OUTLETS for Black people living in an oppressive system they feel they can't escape. Take that entertainment/escape away from them and that may launch them into a feeling of hopelessness. Even YOU say that you are uplifted and motivated by your music and it gets you high. FBA/AfroAmericans won't benefit from an alliance with them. The Somalis have fled a whole country. Also, they're still fighting among themselves over there. Yesterday, it was announced that Somaliland, an enclave within Somalia, has been recognized by Israel as sovereign. They are cozy with the devil as always. I agree, you can't trust them. Even if they DID connect with Black Americans initially....because of their racial confusion and considering themselves closer to Arab than African you couldn't be sure where their loyalty lays. We don't have anything to do with the injustices they're facing. Our focus should be reparations. I agree that our focus should be Reparations, however there are connections between what we go through and what Africans go through that should be recognized. It's part of being well rounded and what Neely Fuller Jr. called: UNIVERSAL MAN and UNIVERSAL WOMAN There's no singular person in charge among most groups of people. Gotta sit down with the heads of various factions within the group. Besides Minister Farrakhan and the Hebrew Israelites, where is the leadership? You know how independent minded so many of our people are. They claim they don't need a leader and don't want anybody telling them what to do. Say what you will about him but Dr. Umar Johnson is one of the most dynamic conscious speakers in our community today and he doesn't even have 10 men following him...lol. Oh they'll listen to him all day, but wouldn't FOLLOW him to the corner store to buy a bag of chips...lol.

quite right

I would say they are the only folks who can legitimately check the other box on forms.

I agree with most of what you said... There is some among us whom are lucky enough to be born both male and female based on genitalia.... Biologically some are chromosomal xx and xy or xxy, or xo. The following is pure conjecture and no science just fun... 1. Now those that are xx and xy.... I would consider true hermaphrodites. 2. xxy i would consider intersex 3. xo are some thing new 4. lastly they are some chromosomal xx that have a penis and some chromosomal xy that have a vagina what say ye?

It starts with looking in the mirror. Build strategic alliances with folks who think similarly. For example, the influencers and podcasters do have a following. Grow from there. Sure we do. Nope. Conversations with our folks will keep that from happening. I stay on the bumper of non-FBA folks in my clan. They understand both sides of it. Exactly. Some of these people don't even claim being Black. No reason to cape for them any more than we would for Ukrainians. There's always something to be done about it. People don't want to sacrifice anything especially their freedom or life. Again, I'm not suggesting Nigeria should have prevented or confronted the US about the strikes. The Nigerians should have eliminated Isis if they were a problem in their country. Again, that's not the point I'm making here. Countries should fight their own battles first. This was never about stepping to America. It's about getting rid of terrorists in their homeland. The Black folks in positions of power aren't in the game to uplift or help our people. They have accepted a comfortable spot and a paycheck within the system of racism white supremacy. There's plenty black folks can do to break the system of racism white supremacy. The main thing is we could stop enriching them in everything from providing entertainment to shopping in their establishments. FBA/AfroAmericans won't benefit from an alliance with them. The Somalis have fled a whole country. Also, they're still fighting among themselves over there. Yesterday, it was announced that Somaliland, an enclave within Somalia, has been recognized by Israel as sovereign. They are cozy with the devil as always. We don't have anything to do with the injustices they're facing. Our focus should be reparations. We definitely don't have any business trying to help another group of people when our sh8t ain't straight over here. Class clowns in effect. Nothing we can do about them. There's no singular person in charge among most groups of people. Gotta sit down with the heads of various factions within the group. Think of it in terms of how the United States is constructed from 50 states to their representatives at the federal and state levels. Minister Farrakhan oversees one faction among FBA/AfroAmericans. I'm not so sure that he actively runs NOI nowadays. There's someone who's built tough enough to talk to them. No shortage of intelligent gangstas among us. Africans are brainwashed into delineating from FBA/AfroAmericans long before they come to the USA. Again, Africans are tribal within their own countries. The only people they really trust and admire are white folks and other non-Blacks.

No. Although this episode aired during the early to mid stages of the Women's Movement, I believe they didn't go after them for 2 major reasons: 1. Nichel was a Black woman and since the Women's Movement was primarily led by White women, they didn't concern themselves much with the image of Black women 2. The Women's Movement's initial focus was women getting proper pay and not being abused and killed by their husband and fathers with impunity as was the case for centuries in Western society. They weren't too focused on the sexual objectification of women. If you watched Star Trek on the regular like I used to do, you'd notice that MOST of the women were dressed in skimpy sexy clothes and super short skirts. It wasn't really until the mid-70s that the sexual objectification of women turned from being playful and liberating to being demonized by the Women's Movement. I believe it happened when Lesbians started infiltrating the Women's struggle. Many lesbians are jealous of straight feminine women because men and society in general naturally find them more attractive and pleasant and offer them more benefits and show them more attention. They figure taking the sexual factor away from women will "even" the playing field in the eyes of society.

That how it is now. Kool No never said you were off topic..... Just that you were in error about there being only two types of melanin in the Human Body If you live in the West.....White Supremacy is constant for about the last 500 yrs. Never said it was off topic It is never my intention to cause harm.....please do not take it personal - I am not assaulting you I am attacking the ideas you entertain and share. Whenever you see the Truth as an offense.....it means long held beliefs or ideas are being challenge - defend or accept Do not make it personal I cited you so as not to create confusion..."with a third type of melanin in their whole body". Now if you meant to type "covering" then I can accept that...and move on from there - in the spirit of discovery and sharing. It sounds to me like you are saying that are not Black African I am still confused....the following statements is utterly confusing to me I quote: White Europeans did not come from Black Africans, but all modern humans, whether White Europeans or Black Africans come from one anatomically straight YDNA African male out of Africa; You are saying that both white europeans and black Africans come from"anatomically straight YDNA African male out of Africa;". It sounds to me like you are saying"anatomically straight YDNA African male out of Africa;" are not Black Africans? So my question to you then is what is the anthropological name of "anatomically straight YDNA African male out of Africa;"? Yes we agree that light skin is due to a mutation.....mutated from what - white skin or black skin? I Am doing it.... It is exactly the opposite.....you are the one promulgating the ideology of(socalled) White Supremacy... The idea of distinct races is straight out of (socalled) white supremacist playbook.. The idea of One Human Race is not only scientific but morally sound and Pan-Africanist(Robert Sobukwe) Yes White Racist has created and fostered a false ideology of distinction and difference so as to oppress and abuse through the auspices of Social and Political Manipulation to accomplish Economic Ends and Positions of Power Any one who believes or support the idea of a multiplicity of Races is in actuality further the goals of (socalled)White supremacy and aiding racist and Racism to grow and strengthen. I think I understood that..... Coat color is hair color....in which the Skin can be black or white while the hair can be black gray red blonde or white Am i accurate in my assessment? Hence the reason we ended up discussing Neuromelanin... As some OCA1A Albino are reputed to have no Melanin to which I specified no eu/pheomelanin Then you rebutted with their eye color....I said some thing about light refraction and then later neuromelanin Yep....words and their meaning change.. When in a life and death struggle all rules and roles goes out the window....All is fair in love and war. Playing the role of a husband (and daddy to an adopted child) No....it will revert The biology will not change... Maybe they social constructs will....as they can and has. Your are confusing Linguistics and Biology... Linguistically Words and their meanings and usage can change and differ over time and from place to place. These changes takes place on the whim and wishes of its users Biology can only mutate....meaning that it will carry 99.9% of what it is with it where every it goes Then 1% is whenever it survives where it is and passes on those changes. In other words a flower by another name is still a flower.....but house is not a home. Then we will just have to disagree On the idea of skin color having anything to do with original sin...i disagree I also disagree gender issues is a main issue that has plagued this world. I agree that colorism in all its facets is an issue. Okay let me share with you my belief....not what the science as i understand it is saying The following is my personal belief and i have no modern western science to back it up....that i will present. hence it is a belief not a fact of science as we know it. I believe that we socalled modern human has always been here....all those hominins and hominids are mutation of socalled modern humans that failed to thrive or were subsumed back into socalled modern humans... Yes..... it can be so done Yes

When she showed that Black female magnificence, I wonder if the feminazis came out with pitchforks back when that episode aired.

Oh yes...lol. When I was a teenager people were sneaking bottles of liquor into the theaters anyway, so I guess they figured they might as well legalize it and start making money off of it. If it weren't for the indoor smoking ban....they probably would have legalized the use of Marijuana in movie theaters too, lol. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't get around it by allowing gummies and other edible forms of Marijuana in theaters. Anything to make a quick buck off the people.

ProfD Just like welfare recipients, more white folks are obese than other groups of people. There are more obese White folks because there are just more White folks in the nation in sheer numbers. But the PERCENTAGE of them that are obese aren't the same as the percentages in the AfroAmerican and Latino communities. However what's interesting is that I'm starting to see a reversal in obesity in the AfroAmerican community lately. For the past 10 years or so there seems to be more and more skinny and lanky bruthaz bouncing up and down the street, lol. Black folks created the Western diet. We were just fine when raising, growing and cooking our own food. That diet high in starch and animal fat wasn't good for our people even then, but our people did more physical labor it balanced itself out. Most of our people were burning a lot of calories and getting a lot of exercise laboring in the fields and later on in the factories and that kept the fat and cholesterol down. Black folks and Latinos outside the US are still eating a ton of starch in the form of rice and potatoes. They are consuming the other stuff as well. Can't speak about the Latinos but as far as Africans go..... Most of the rice they eat is whole grain rice so it's more fibrous and healthy and most of the potatoes they eat are the yellow "sweet" potatoes and yams as well as cassava which is more healthy than those Irish potatoes niggaz love to mash together and make potato salad with. The difference is foods are processed differently in other countries. In the capitalistic USA, food is processed in such a way to 1) feed a lot of people and 2) make a lot of money. True dat.

When I look at those videos, it just reminds me of how far the youth have degenerated intellectually. That news conference was done in 1990 back when all of them were in their early 20s. Those bruthaz clearly weren't the smartest members of the community but they were much smarter and clearly more articulate than most of the rappers out there today. Infact, I don't think you could get most rappers today to SIT STILL long enough to do a press conference of that magnitude. I also believe Eazy E's charisma was under estimated. I've seen many of his interviews and when you listened to the dude and how he moved, you couldn't help BUT to like him...lol.

ProfD When have Black folks been united? As a collective mass? ....it's been a while, lol. As an entire community, FBA's ain't really been united since we came together to vote Obama in office. Tribalism still exists. it is heavy among Black folks in other countries. Even within the country, the people are sub-divided. Much of it is fueled by self hatred. I was at a school today and saw how much Black kids went out of their way to try to get along with the White and Latino kids while clowning on eachother. FBA/AfroAmericans do not have any friends/allies outside the USA. Lol...well shit....how many friends/allies do we have INSIDE the USA???? I think individually, there are plenty of AfroAmericans with friends and connections. Not on the level we'd like, but it exists. A lot of FBA are doing good business in Africa and with Africans both here and abroad. My concern is that the rhetoric I'm hearing from a lot of FBA influencers will tarnish that and in some cases ruin the relationship as people are forced to take sides in a petty squabble. Sure, our people could be more mature and not giggle and laugh at other Blacks for getting the racist treatment. However, when Black people bring the BS on themselves especially after delineating from and throwing shade at us, they are going to get clowned. Somalis never delineated....lol....because they didn't consider themselves part of us anyway. I certainly was not advocating that Black folks fight among themselves. I know that. Most of what I'm posting isn't directed at any comments YOU have made but the comments I'm seeing from a lot of other Black influencers and commentators on social media lately....because I know for a fact that many of them read my posts on this site. How long should victimhood be accepted and/or tolerated? For as long as you can't do anything about it. I'm going to allow someone to get their azz whupped especially if they are not fighting back. Presuming Nigeria was just fronting and the leadership really DID resent the strikes Trump performed on their nation, what would you have had them do in response? What would YOU do if you were the leader of Nigeria and Trump sent missiles into the nation? At a certain point, when it is clear that they are powerless and/or cannot win, I will step in and break it up. But, I have to see effort first. Oh.... So you want to play the role of Renaldo Rey in Friday, huh? When they step to America and end up getting knocked the fuck out, you want to come running to their rescue to "break it up" only for America to flex on YOU TOO and force you to go scampering back to whatever sand pile or mud hut you hailed from...lol. "Sorry to bother you. Come on fool, and get up and pick your teeth up off the ground. Why you come down here fucking with these people?" Ain't no "stepping in" to help somebody fight America or break it up and keep America off of them. America is CLEARLY the dominant force on the planet as far as nations go and for the time being will do as she pleases. I'm not saying it's right....I'm saying that appears to be the way it is right now. Other countries KNOW this, and they aren't going to put themselves in a position to be made an example of. Nigeria did the right thing based on where they are currently. .....which is sit there and TAKE that shit with a smile and HOPE America doesn't take further action. For whatever reason, you choose not to accept the fact that these n8gglets are powerless. Because they're not, that's the reason. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said that our unity is powerful. We have changed the course of this nation both inside and out when we stood together as a people. AfroAmericans aren't powerless....it's that we aren't USING our power as a community and it's laying dormant. I was referring to ALL Black folks allowing racism white supremacy to continue buck-breaking them. What other choice do they have right now, brutha PD? Do you know of a secret weapon Black folks can whip out and defeat the System of Racism with? You don't have to say what it is on a public forum....lol....just confirm that one exists that YOU know of. FBA/AfroAmericans clowning the Somalis and any other group getting the bizness from racists is par for the course. Remember...those Black folks delineated from and have been throwing shade at us for a long time now. As I said before, the Somalis weren't with our community to begin with and the foolishness I'm seeing from both sides online certainly isn't going to bring the two communities any closer together, lol. As for the rest of the non-FBA Africans.....some were down with us, some were not. We can't throw them all under the bus or use THAT as an excuse not to speak up for the injustices that they face. It goes back to the point that I'm making about trying to justify mistreatment to hide one's powerlessness. If we as Black Americans can't help Africans when they are being mistreated we should either admit that and offer our condolences OR just shut the fuck up about it and focus on our own business. But these niggaz ain't doing that. They're JOINING with the racists to attack and humiliate other Black folks. At some point, I might petition FBA/AfroAmericans to stall out the non-FBA Black folks. In the meantime, you might want to tell those non-FBA Black folks to rethink their strategic alliances too. If they decided to, who's the "head nigga in charge"? With the state of "unity" in our (FBA) community today, where or who is the "leader" that they could actually sit down with and have a conversation with to unite the communities? ...other than Minister Farrakhan, maybe. But some of these weed smoking purple lipped niggaz are so delinquent and rebellious that they can't even get along with or unite with their own family members, let alone be trusted enough to unite with Black people from other cultures. Reminds me of something Neely Fuller Jr. said when somebody called up and asked why don't Africans talk to Black folks when they come to America and see them out on the street? Mr. Fuller responded in that deep baritone voice of his: "Why they don't talk to the Black folks? Talk to the Black folks for what? What would they get out of it? ....besides....maybe..... chased DOWN the street if they stopped and tried to talk to the WRONG Black folks!" ....that line still has me laughing when I think about it, LMBAO.

Lol........she ain't Black, IMO.

I do...lol. I remember as a child watching the episode where she and some other crew members left the ship and came back as barbarian versions of themselves and when I saw her body in that outfit I INSTANTLY fell in love. She even looked great well up into old age. I don't mean just "great for your age".....great. I mean "take you somewhere and slobber you down".....great, lol.

A Supreme Being is supposed to be omnipotent (all power) and omniscient (all knowing). I don't know that caring ranks on the radar.

I don't have any positive memories of her. I just remember she was on Star Trek.

So! The issue is not forgets, the issue is what He/She/It cares about. If there is a God then He/She/It cannot be stupid.

@ProfD Cool, what is your most positive memory of Nichelle Nichols?
