Television + Univision are not latin american owned\, in the same BET which is owned by Skydance is not Black american owned. I could ask why a black person in modern tim es\, seeks to create a false impotency in speaking on the black populace i n the usa compared to other non white european populaces. but i will not. The USA is white european owned circa ninety percent. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n In February 2020\, Searchlight Capital Partners and ForgeLight acquired a 64% majority stake in Univision\, with Televisa keeping their 36% minor ity stake.\n\n\n\n Searchlight was founded by Eric Zinterhofer \, Oliver Haarmann \, Erol Uzumeri \n\n\n\n Forgelight I don't know who they are\, but they do not sound latin american.\n\n\n\n NBCUniversal owns Telemundo completely\, NBCUniversal is not latino. \n\n\n\n So your decision to kn ock down the black populace using another non white european populace is f alse.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n @ProfD \n\n\n\n OWN \, the oprah winfrey network is not black owned. \n\n\n\n Warner Bros. Discovery Global Linear Networ ks (95%)\n\n Harpo Productions (5%)\n\n\n\n Skydance owns Warner Bros. \ , Skydance is not black. Oprah WInfrey owns five percent of the OWN Networ k.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Bounce TV is owned by the Scripps Network\, Scripps is white. Jonathan KAtz founded Bounce\, he is white. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I knew Magic Johnson didn't own magic johnson theaters anymore\, why didn 't you profd? \n\n\n\n While the chain still bears Johnson's name\, he is no longer actively involved in the management committee\, strategic plann ing\, operations\, or public relations.\n\n\n\n It is part of the Lows cin eplex entertainment company. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Now TVOne is black owned \, from a black woman in the washington DC area I think.\n\n\n\n Originall y launched as a joint venture with Comcast\, Urban One would acquire the former's stake in 2015. So it started as a joint venture like OWN but is c ompletely black owned now. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n SO\, of the media enterpri ses mentioned in this post only one is black owned. only one is not white european owned. \n\n\n\n Now\, can TV One do better?  all firms can\, fr om a raw accounting perspective. But\, TV One is doing great in my view. C onsidering the entertainment industry in the USA is very conglomerated now . The existence of TV One is really against the grain. That is why magic j ohnson \, oprah and others all sold their shares to big firms gobbling. \ n\n\n\n As I said\, Netflix was given a favor by Skydance\, who now owns p aramount + warner bros + discovery and whatever else those firms gobbled b efore. \n\n\n\n NEtflix wanted globally known intellectual properties\, b ut I argue adding all that debt would had been a mistake and skydance will have a lot of internal manipulation with all they own now. \n\n\n\n  \n \n\n\n @admin \n\n\n\n so many people are tired of commercials\, but here is the big problem\, subscription is a terrible business model for public ly traded entertainment firms. the problem with subscription as nassr al k haleefi\, ceo of beinsports said\, I paraphrase\, the only way to make con tinual monetary growth  is to add on subscribers but the global economy h as a limit on how much growth can exist in that way\, while a free app wit h commercials\, the same like network television but with apps\, can grow continually because with quality content you can raise the advertising fee s overtime. But trying to do both is going to lose out over time\, no one wants to pay for a service with commercials. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n REFERRAL \n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-netflix-the-new-segregation-in-e ntertainment/#findComment-80870\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n POST URL\n\n\n\n  \n\n \n\n PRIOR EDITION\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/676-economic- corner-38-03102026/\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n NEXT EDITION\n\n\n\n ?\n\n\n\n  \n \n\n\n COMMENTARY\n\n\n\n @Pioneer1 \n\n\n\n I comprehend your frustratio n\, like james Forten 250 years ago\, you have embraced the usa and both o f you show a desire to compete side the other people in the usa financiall y\, while in the legal confines. Thus your desire to suggest impotency \, not to stymie but to inspire through negative critique. I get it. but be e asy. patience is a virtue. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n 03242026\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\ n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-netflix-the-new-segregation-in-entertai nment/#findComment-80874\n\n\n\n osted just now\n\n\n\n @ProfD \n\n\n\n I have never underestimated\, you said and I quote \n\n\n\n   On 3/23/2 026 at 6:02 AM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n if Magic Johnson is still in that b usiness. \n\n\n\n you used the word IF right\, that means you don't know or are unsure... that isn't me underestimating and I think anyone would ev enly ask\, why didn't you know. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   1 hour ago\, Pr ofD said:\n\n\n\n The point I was making is that Black folks do have outl ets &\;/or some level of influence over them.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I didn 't refute that point\, which also was pioneer's point\, but I cleared up t he falsities that either one of you alluded. \n\n\n\n   1 hour ago\, P rofD said:\n\n\n\n There's nothing to prevent Black folks from investing in more platforms if there is a real desire to do so.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n T here's nothing\, that isn't true. Most black people in the usa are still n ear the financial level their enslaved forebears were\, which is by design by whites\, not an accident by white planning and an honest financial pos ition not an excuse. White people didn't get rich absent criminal activiti es\, so it is a financial insult to suggest black people can blossom in ma jority with less opportunity and yes\, taking land and enslaving other and cheating others are financial opportunities that matter. \n\n\n\n Fiscal poverty is powerful. What does desire have to do with anything? \n\n\n\n I go back to James Forten\, again\, black man\, living at the time of geo rge washington\, business owner. \n\n\n\n Yes\, Profd\, business owner\, white people certified. But\, the larger black populace\, has always been a different financia reality than the blacks with money. And as this commu nity has already made established\, blacks with money couldn't even push t o make sure they only sent people to historical black colleges so... \n\n \n\n are blacks with money not investing in the black populace to their ut most? yes. \n\n\n\n But\, the gap between the black 1% and the black 99% has always been the widest fiscal gap of any populace in the usa. \n\n\n\ n to restate\, the gap between the nonblack 1%(whether female/latino/chris tian / other) and the non black 99% is smaller than the gap between the bl ack 1% and the black 99%. \n\n\n\n   1 hour ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n TV One is but one an example. Tyler Perry owns a whole movie production s et-up in Georgia.\n\n\n\n yes and he sold his prior studio to a white lati no. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   1 hour ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n I'm never going to be defeated into believing Black folks cannot afford to establish anything of benefit &\;/or importance to us.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I am g lad\, in my own mind\, I am not trying to bring down any black person's ho pe BUT when it comes to money \, when it comes to the USA \, the reality i s\, we blacks have a lying problem. this very post started with a false fi nancial evaluation pioneer\, which you didn't even point out. \n\n\n\n Ar e black people in the usa today\, circa 2026\, financially  better than a nytime in the past\, on average or the whole? the answer is yes. \n\n\n\n But\, black people have always been limited to legal civil financial grow th by the non blacks. Again NYC\, irish/italians/white jews/chinese/white latinos all to this day each not only commit more financial crimes  than black people but have protection from law enforcement for said crimes.  B lack people are the penultimate\, nearest above the least\,  criminal plu s least illegal actors in the usa\, the first is the native american whose financial position is the worst of any group in the usa. \n\n\n\n White jews and italians burned down the entire bronx\, to get insurance money an d yet\, to this day\, you still have black people talking about how\, blac k people can't  Where was the cops while the bronx was burning? oh right\ , the cops are the cousins to the italian and white jewish landowners. \n \n\n\n the biggest financial crime black people had was the numbers and we had to give the italian mob a cut of that. \n\n\n\n the italian mob whic h financed the golden gate bridge\, through the bank of america\, formerly the bank of italy\, was able to earn financial fortunes over crimes cover ing the entire shipping industry/construction industry/gambling industry.. .  the irish/ the white jews/the white latino/ the white asian  ala chin ese all did and do likewise. \n\n\n\n I never see the NYPD who always see m interested in hording around congregations of unarmed black children fin d their way to stopping any crimes from the non black so... that is how no nblack populaces financially grow. \n\n\n\n They don't admit it. But it i s the truth\, it is the truth to how the usa works. \n\n\n\n Black people will never get law enforcement in the usa which is not black and moreover has tons of self hating blacks in it in modernity \, to cover for any fin ancial crimes. That cover is how others have afforded the ability to truly grow financially. \n\n\n\n   1 hour ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Black development in any industry is a  matter of desire &\; will. The resou rces exist.\n\n\n\n no profd\, in the usa \, white development in any indu stry has always been a matter of financial growth through criminal means. White people didnt just desire and will\, they were allowed to act crimina lly\, which is a big deal in a country that purports to be against illegal activity.  \n\n\n\n Black people can't will or desire through phenotypi cal bias. That is the point of phenotypical bias. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n 032 52026\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-netflix-the-new-segregation -in-entertainment/#findComment-80884\n\n\n\n osted just now\n\n\n\n @Prof D \n\n\n\n   16 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n FBA/AfroAmericans hav e come a long way between slavery &\; the present. Especially compared to Black folks who have lived in their own countries over the same period of time.\n\n\n\n That is a large suggestion... I don't know... 100% your c orrect that the condition of 99% of black people in the usa 1865 who were completely enslaved\, which means financially whites made sure said black percentage had\, no money\, no bank account\, no inheritance\, no knowledg e of fiscal concerns like a contract or ledger \; educationally means [not through laziness but white power]\, no ability to read\, no ability to wr ite\, no knowledge of their forebears\, no knowledge of their populaces in tricacies[enslaved black people were born enslaved\, they didn't know abou t haiti a land made by DOSers\, abyssinia the only part of africa not a eu ropean colony\, the larger DOS populaces in south america\, knowledge of m onrovia or freetown\, in modernity yes\, a black person can say what we kn ow but 1865 most black people in the usa didn't have any knowledge of blac k people outside of their slave quarter\, they didn't know of the gens de colour of new orleans unless they were actually from new orleans which was n't most black people by a large distance in the usa] \; Culturally\, what we grow or are growing to\,  means [ through white power again]: no dire ction[and this is huge\, again in modernity black people talk about americ an alot\, but in 1865 our forebears weren't american. they wanted to be fr ee yes\, but they didn't associate freedom with the usa. this is something we tend to miss today. Our forebears in 1865 didn't want to be president\ , didn't want fight with whites\, didn't want to live with whites\, so the fact that a majority of us in the usa do now\, means black people made ch oices BUT they made choices absent all the things in this paragraph i wrot e\, which are influential. Hell\, I argue\, most black people at the end o f the war between the states\, when the usa's modern midwestern/western st ates were all still territories should had moved en mass to canada. And I know that Frederick Douglass opposed Harriet Tubman because tubman wanted black people to go all the way up north to canada but frederick douglass\, very statian\, was looking to his individual benefit and knew that whites in the usa have always disliked the idea of Black DOSers leaving this cou ntry with hateful hearts in mass for obvious reasons. But Tubman was corre ct\, the better culture for black people circa 1865 was in canada rather t han the usa\, canada 1865 isn't the canada of today. Canada in 1865 is ver y much a country place\, hard to live but a place black dosers from the us a could had made a home\, yes nothing is easy\, but it was the better choi ce and absent all the things mentioned we were able to be manipulated by b lack individuals or the white populist to make foolish/dysfunctional choic es]\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n So\, yes\, the Black DOS populace today has definit ely grown from the conditions of 1865\, look at this very forum. Modern Bl ack people are like Common's character in the movie Alice and Alice in the film Alice is like black people of 1865. They would be shocked at us on a lot of levels based on their life experiences. \n\n\n\n BUT\, the way or style of growth of DOSers has a lot of negative aspects that don't come fr om DOSers but the environment. \n\n\n\n I argue\, that black DOSers lost more than we ever gained from 1865 to today. Rosewood the black financial capitol of florida\, white people commited crimes\, no one white to jail o r a court room\, black people in florida have never recovered. Greenwood\, the black financial capitol of oklahoma\, white people committed crimes\, no one white to jail or a court room\, black people in oklahoma never rec overed. Faubourg treme\, an educational capitol of black people in the usa \, was assaulted by whites cut up\, burned down\, never recovered. Madame CJ Walker yes\, fiscally wealthy but NYC did everything in its power to d iminish black financial growth \, including burning harlem\, driving black people into prison with made up charges... I think black people today lov e to look on the bright side but the honest side is the better place. This goes back to frederick douglass side harriet tubman. Douglass felt that g oing through all these hurdles was a positive and Tubman was correct\, let s get away from this place\, so we can live in peace. from 1865 to 2026 we as a people have daily\, not yearly or monthly but daily had to deal with white abuse\, what is so valuable about that? \n\n\n\n That white abuse. .. the white men who killed malcolm's father never went to jail\, no one k nows who they are... going through these white hurdles from 1865 in the us a makes Black DOSers fools. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n So... yes Black DOSers ha ve come a long way\, but was it a wise way\, was it an honest way\, was it a black way... or was it a liars way\, was it a fool's way\, was it the w hite mans chosen way for us?\n\n\n\n And is the path the white man laid fo r us better in comparison to a path we laid for ourselves. \n\n\n\n Many black people will argue that the immigration to the usa is a sign of usa g reatness\, but I always counter with a simple truth\, the usa makes the re st of the world poor. \n\n\n\n The usa had stolen/kidnapped/murdered many leaders of haiti from toussaint louverture to a recent president\, acts t hat the usa would call an act of war but somehow when the usa does it\, it isn't an act of war... stole haiti's gold which again\, the usa would cal l an act of war but... the hit list of countries the usa has done similar too: killed/stole/destroyed is very long\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Mexico/Nicarag ua/China/Japan/Vietnam/Korea/Afghanistan/Libya/Iraq/Iran/Congo/Germany/Arg entina/Brasil/Chile/Phillipines/Cuba/The palestinean protectorate of the b ritish empire/Uganda/Ghana/Canada\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Building from the gro und up is easy when you have land you can steal like First peoples of the american continet\, when you have enslaved other human beings\, like Black DOSer forebears... when you have the country who destroyed yours complete ly\, provide the rich people who led the wars against said country so that you and the rest of the poor don't oppose said country\, like Germany/Jap an/France/Italy.....I can't think of any government in modern human histor y that actually built from the ground up and became a world leader or fisc ally potent. \n\n\n\n USA had stolen land and enslaved labor\, the best o f everything to grow. \n\n\n\n China got the entire global manufacturing industry as a gift by the usa to separate them from russia in the cold war \n\n\n\n Russia as the Union of Soviet Socialist republics used the end of the second european imperial war to grow their influence and control\, th e usa had aided them at he begining of said war cause the usa couldn't bea t germany+ japan alone. And the USSR was trying to reclaim the lands of th e russian empire which were larger. \n\n\n\n Japan made to rubble by the usa was given a legendary welfare check by the usa so they wouldn't join t he ussr. \n\n\n\n Germany\,made to rubble by the usa completely\,  in it s west side\, was given a legendary welfare check by the usa so they would n't join the ussr. \n\n\n\n France made to rubble by war\, all sides\, wa s given a legendary welfare check by the usa so they wouldn't join the uss r. \n\n\n\n India was given money by the usa + ussr to picka side \, in t he end\, india didn't pick either and still hasn't\, and still does busine ss with both. thus india didn't get what china got from the usa for distan cing from russia but still gets some with russia+ china as neighbors and t he usa afraid of having three public opponents of the usa representing hal f of humanities populace together as neighbors. \n\n\n\n Brasil like the usa had stolen land + enslaved labor\, the best of everything to grow and did all the immigration patterns of the usa as well. \n\n\n\n England... do I have to say this was the country that once boasted the sun never set on its empire\, extracting all sorts of wealth from everywhere. \n\n\n\n ISrael\, stole the land from england lived in by the palestinean\, the pal estinean protectore\, but were financed militarilly and governmentally by the usa in perpetuity. \n\n\n\n Not one government mentioned above built from the ground up on their own\, with no massive criminal activity. \n\n \n\n  \n\n\n\n So\, yeah \, Nigeria/Haiti/Jamaica/Guyana/Ghana/Ethiopia/ Sri lanka/ Madagascar many countries full of black people immigrate to the usa but the usa has committed successful acts of war against those countr ies... What would the usa be if its leaders were constantly removed/killed \, it resources constantly ripped\, if other countries were vulturing. \n \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n So Black DOSers whose forebears were literally enslaved to the whites of the european colonies and then the usa made from them\,  are living in the country as allies to the whites who have literally unde rmined every single black country in humanity... \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n So.. . I don't know. I think hundreds of years from now\, someone will be able to look back and truly compare black populaces around the world and see wh o has grown more or less. But currently\, Brasil/USA/South Africa/India/Ni geria all have black one percents\, very wealthy\, all have a majority fis cally poor black 99%. All have been enslaved in one form or another to whi tes in said country. The only variance I can think of is that in the USA's /Brasil's/India's of the world \, unlike the Nigeria's/HAiti's/South Afric a's the black populaces have hurt themselves to settle non blacks in usa/b rasil/india are all the same\, have been terrible to black people but blac ks in each country has made a choice to coexist to whites who to be blunt\ , have never stopped terrorizing them... who is the fool\, the terrorist o r the one who keeps living next to the terrorist?\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   1 6 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n The fact that Tyler Perry  who wasn't born wealthy has been able to amass a fortune significant enough to buy s tudios is an accomplishment.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I concur\, it is a financi al accomplishment\, For the record I never said he didn't accomplish\, i s tated to whom he sold his prior stuido\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   16 hours ag o\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n I'm glad so many FBA/AfroAmericans who were not born wealthy have been able to make a lot of money here in the USA.\n\n\n\ n yeah me too\, could had been way better... what would greenville in tuls a be\, rosewood in florida be\, and so many other places if white people d idn't burn whole black communities down to the ground and kill black peopl e who had committed no crime whatsoever. \n\n\n\n Black people are always free to let the revenge go... BUT financially\, the past can not be let g o because financially\, the past matters. \n\n\n\n When whites like the n ypd round up black people inequally per the law\, that is a financial atta ck on the black populace. \n\n\n\n Let's be blunt\, a show once existed a bout a white woman selling marijuana in some town outside a city\, commonl y called a suburb \, more correctly an exourb. it is n't under but outside .. Anyway\, while in nyc the nypd is rounding up marijuana dealers while n ever seeming able to find cocaine dealers\, the nypd finds cocaine but no cocaine dealers.  These are financial attacks. Black people talk about mo ney so much but don't calculate the financial loss/hit/negative black peop le go through with white interactions. \n\n\n\n When white states in the south placed trash bin areas next to black towns making black people sick with its fumes\, that is a financial cost. Not just healthcost. \n\n\n\n I am happy for black folk who financially get through white terror\, but w hite terror is still here and it has a huge financial cost that we blacks need to start admitting.\n\n\n\n 03/26/2026\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/t opic/12614-netflix-the-new-segregation-in-entertainment/#findComment-80907 \n\n\n\n osted just now\n\n\n\n @ProfD \n\n\n\n   23 hours ago\, Pro fD said:\n\n\n\n FBA/ADO/AfroAmericans do not have an ancestral homeland to which we can return. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n FBA/ADO/AfroAmericans were b orn here in the USA. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Over 400 years\, FBA/ADO/AfroAm ericans have made the *best of* a bad situation\, America's original si n *slavery* .\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n In the present\, when FBA/ADO/AfroAmer icans look back over the past couple hundred years\, we have made progres s in our homeland\, the country that enslaved our forebearers.\n\n\n\n Ex pand  \n\n\n\n what determines an ancestral homeland? \n\n\n\n I am not saying your wrong\, or I am not saying a black person whose forebears were enslaved from africa by whites can't say a locale whites shipped them to can't be considered a homeland if they choose\, but the choices are still open\n\n\n\n I give three examples\n\n\n\n 1) all black peoples enslaved f rom africa whether they went to the american continent or the asian contin ent or the european continent have one thing in common\, their african anc estry is continental. I have said in this forum before\, if anywhere in af rica is my hmeland it is the literal continent itself because my forebears who were enslaved come from all over. Often when people immigrate freely\ , they may call themselves\, european/asian/african/south american\, but i n truth they mean a specific local in a continent. right? but fr DOSers we have to mean\, by way of how enslavement worked\, the continent of africa itself and considering descended of enslaved people were sent everywhere outside africa\, not merely the american continent\, a continental ancestr y suits all of us whatever countries our forebears were enslaved in.  Bla ck People like you or me exist in brasil in india \, what shared history h eritage/what we carry do we have? that our forebears were all enslaved fro m africa by whites/ various whites. so I think a continental ancestry \, n ot a local in a continent is historically unquestionable\, even if it is a lso unique among human groups. But\, that is fate for you\n\n\n\n 2)I do t hink the seas itself is a valid homeland in its own way. the one thing tha t unites all descneded of enslaved people from africa is that most of our forebears died on the ships to wherever\, again not just the usa but all t he places\, so the sea is where most of our forebears... or at least where most of mine are buried. You have said in the past that because those who died on the boat didn't have issue they are not but I oppose that view. b ecause many black dos lineages have died through the centuries because of white terror anywhere\, it is uneven to not include all the people enslave d on the boat \, some of whom were definitely genetically related to those who survived. Again\, not an common place but the DOS experience is not c ommon . Yes\, slavery is throughout all human history\, but the mechanics of pan white enslavement to pan blacks in the period of the continental sl ave trades had unique forms. that were never seen before or since. \n\n\n \n 3) this is two queries to your position.\n\n\n\n I)I want clarification to where you stand to places outside the usa that have black dosers. Bras il has to be first on the list as no place in the american continent has m ore black DOSers than brasil. Brasil had dosers before the usa\, so what y ou are saying is black dosers in brasil's homeland is brasil? what about b lack dosers in india\, india had DOSers before Brasil did by white muslims \, so what you are saying is black dosers in india's homeland is india? \ n\n\n\n II) concerning the time\, you mention the centuries black dosers h ave been in a country\, in this case usa\,  as  warranting its labeling as a homeland\, but is your position that it applies to all DOSers in a pa rticular country whether they view it or not  or is it optional? For me\, and many other dosers\, i want to be the first in my bloodline to choose a homeland\, i think that had value. I don't care how long my bloodline ha s been in the usa\, this for me is not my choice or the choice of my foreb ears. I think having the choice of making a homeland for yourself is one o f the gifts DOS forebears gave all DOSers \, we don't have to have any all egiance to any of these countries: usa/brasil/india because our forebears never did. It is the freedom to choose. As long as me or any in my bloodli ne is in the usa\, it is a continuation of white peoples desires\, not the desires of my own people. I can't call my homeland on what whites desired .

And the english who came were from the poor parts of england\, t hey weren't the relatives of the queen fand kings of england. so... outsid e the native american\, who was murdered by immigrants\, all other peoples in the usa are immigrants\, but only DOSers are immigrants who were force d here\, all other immigrants ran from poverty \, did they not? You say gi ving up and running to the colonizers house but lets be more pure\, giving up and running away in general \, does that make sense? \n\n\n\n cause t he original white european immigrants ran away from their poverty in europ e and didn't choose to make any european country better...\n\n\n\n The who le usa outside two peoples is built on people who were fiscally poor and r an away from it.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   23 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n \n Where else can or should FBA/ADO/AfroAmericans go to live if the USA is their birthplace?\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n I have said it before\, DOSers anywh ere are free to choose. that is the gift\, we are not bound\, until we cho ose to be and present that truth to the next generation\, each has to make their choice a heritage\,  And I feel most black DOSers have never done that\, and it isn't up to black dosers to apply our desires to each other\ , i argue\, we should honor each other by leaving it open. \n\n\n\n But\, to DOSers born in the USA\, specifically\, the only place I can think of that we all should consider based on heritage\, our history\, is Monrovia\ , not liberia\, but monrovia.  yes\, black DOSers born in the usa settled in many places outside the usa\, black dosers leave the usa every year\, for many other lands\, to become their homelands\,  even though we don't seem to know that as a people. But\, I think we have a responsibility to M onrovia \, as it was started by Black DOSers specifically from the USA. No w can all black dosers born in the usa move to monrovia:) no\, but i do th ink we owe it to ourselves to do better there in some fashion. \n\n\n\n   23 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n IMO\, it does not take that lon g.  We can see the progress or lack thereof around the planet.  We know the reasons for it too. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Those who are willing to go t o war\; kill &\; destroy ultimately enjoy the rewards of it.\n\n\n\n ev en enough\, for me it isn't about wealth or wars\, but the condition of fr eedom. Black groups in every country in humanity have a fiscally wealthy p erson\, but that isn't enough for me to rank or relate the various black g roups\, the condition of freedom is what i am looking for and i see little variance in that in any country. I can't think of any black populace in a country that isn't a wealthy black 1% aside a fiscally poor black 99%\, u sa/brasil/india/south africa/jamaica\, what differs the black populaces in any of the countries. in terms of collective freedom.

Our personal histories tend to face financial obstacl es\, which I feel need to be said \, I argue we DOSers have spent far too long being quiet. \n\n\n\n Again\, Pioneer talks about the law alot\, but lets call it like it is\, the quantity of financial crimes against black people that has gne to court int he usa is less than one percent per year\ , that is a lot money taken from us.

I rather it said than not. \n\n\n\n   23 hours ago\, ProfD said :\n\n\n\n Many Black folks have figured out how to navigate white terror i n order to win.  Easy...no.  Doable...absolutely.\n\n\n\n You are 100% c orrect\, but the absolute truth requires an addition \, winning is based o n how they define winning and black DOSers don't define winning the same w ay.

I see\, \n\n\n\n When you speak about leaving an un der developed home country to struggle in another country\, i think of the conquistador i think of the white european imperial era through france/sp ain/portugal/netherlands\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Of the european powers\, the o nly one that built countries as you said were the english\, it wasn't real ly the common way. all the others only wanted to extract resources and lea ve a set of mixed breeds to manage things to funnel money into whatever eu ropean center country. Spain and france and portugal famously had to pay w hite women to go while the english... was able to et whole communities to go. \n\n\n\n In the end of the day\, the english didn't do it for the bui lding of countries. The english pushed their colonies to be pan white\, mu ltiwhite\, individualist\, not to become the usa or canada or austrailia o ne day\, but to be a haven to make money. Remember the english colonies we re not profitable in the international market compared to any of the other s. the money in the english colonies was actually in the english colonies spending money. \n\n\n\n BEcause the english colonies actually invited ho rdes of white europeans they were given a financial status\, that the non white european majority populaces in the non english colonies couldn't get \, so the first industry of the usa was as a market place\, not because it was special but because it became the first true white european country o utsdie europe. Essentailly english goods had a controlled marketplace for tea/furniture and other english content. That was the financial purpose of the usa. its external traffic was not its main finanial agenda. for engla nd. \n\n\n\n   5 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n What is preventing B lack folks from either building up their home countries &\;/or taking o ver other lands?\n\n\n\n well first\, for DOSers if you don't view a count ry as your home country then their is nothing to build up. Again some blac ks liek james forten\, start business fight and die \, having chose the us a as ther home but then they ask questions like you to other black people who havent decided the usa is their home. \n\n\n\n You use the word preve ntion but you have to first view the usa as your home\, brasil as you rhom e\, india as your home... before you can act like it is . \n\n\n\n Black pople are descended of enslaved folk\, i argue in our heart\, we aren't in terested in being black versions of white europeans.  yes\, cases exist b ut on average\, we have a vengeanful desire but not a enslavement desire.\ n\n\n\n   5 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Jamaica was Black before w hite folks showed up &\; colonized it.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n yes the carib s are black native americans\, like the negrito black asians.\n\n\n\n    5 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n What are Black folks willing to do the se things other than cry\, grumble &\; complain?\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n As a very young person\, I was taught that as a male being weak (cry\, gru mble\, complain\, lack of self-defense\, etc.) doesn't solve anything.  B eing able to take action &\; handle bizness is everything.  It works .\n\n\n\n Non verbal action always speaks louder than words. But I get the logic\, if you focus on building no matter how many times another burns y our house down\, you may never realize that you need to stop building wher e you are cause the place you are is crap. \n\n\n\n   5 hours ago\, P rofD said:\n\n\n\n No need to go into a history lesson.  We know what pr oduces winners &\; losers.  The question is what is one willing to d o in order to *win*.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n no the first question s what is the definition of winning because the definition of winning dictates what is needed to win\, and not all definitions of winning are the same\, espec ially for DOSer.  One black person can say they have won and mean nothing to another black person cause they dont share the same meaning of winning . \n\n\n\n   5 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n This Black man was a d rug addict &\; homeless at one point in his life.  He's rich now.  An ything is possible.\n\n\n\n I didn't question possibility\, i said the pwo er of will and desire\, this one instance doesnt prove will and desire\, i t proves circumstance\, \n\n\n\n @Pioneer1\n\n\n\n   18 minutes ago\,  Pioneer1 said:\n\n\n\n Do you suggest that we compete with others\, illeg ally?\n\n\n\n I suggest we\, meaning black people anywhere on earth\, each discover or learn who we are as individuals and who we want to be as part of black groups and then relate that to wherever we live.

He flat out said\, his goal was to get in the usa... s o for many immigrants\, not all\, but many they win by merely being in the usa\, as the accomplishment\, even if they are only squatting. And that i s their choice but there you have it\, to answer the question of accomplis hment. \n\n\n\n This is why comparing wins is hard\, because one person's win is not another person's win. \n\n\n\n   27 minutes ago\, ProfD s aid:\n\n\n\n Right. Those individuals need to find a country that will acc ept them &\; to which they can relocate to produce &\; contribute to building &\; making it better.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Yes... with the addi tion that again\, some people leave with no need to make the destination c ountry better\, as muc has the destination country has what they are looki ng for. When you look at israel\, many jews go to israel to simply be amon g jews\, it is not to be rich or produce as you say or \"make it better\" as much as the environment is satisfactory for them\, the win is the move \, but moving takes time\, it isn't magic. And you can't force it through hard work. my forebears worked very hard and often got nothing of what the y wanted because hard work still requires opportunity and if you don't opp ortunity\, you don't. and without violence\, peace blockades some forms of opportunity. \n\n\n\n   27 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n There's no shortage of successful Black people who have overcome seemingly insurm ountable hurdles in order to *win*.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n yes with the addit ion that the quantity of black people getting what they want\, I will call that successful\, is far less based on non black potency because blacks a re abused at no fault of their own by whites. When competition isn't even\ , when it has criminal actions that is highly manipulative\, especially in the financial realm. \n\n\n\n I know you see the USA as a place that all ows any individual to succeed but I don't think that is financially true. To rephrase\, negative unmerited blockades or abuses are applied to people in the usa which means individuals don't have the ability to succeed. Ath letes are the best examples. A black baseball played \, playing today admi tted in the players journal\, if it wasn't for my community in some area o f florida\, placing themselves in debt he wouldn't had made it as a baseba ll player. That is not an environment for all to succeed\, that is called an environment of failure. \n\n\n\n   27 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\ n\n\n Not sure what that has to do with putting in the effort to *win*.  It has been done several times over already past to present.\n\n\n\n and this is the key variance\, in your mind\, effort overcomes environment. Th e numbers show\, effort never overcomes environment. A negative financial environment  defined as an environment designed to hinder financial posit ive movement\, succeeds in majority in the usa historically\, all phenotyp es. IT isn't that effort overcame environment as much as environment\, whi ch in the financial sense is a human construct can not be designed perfect ly/a complete work\, and the environment ALLOWS a percentage of those in i t to succeed which happens. You and others think it is effort overcoming t he negativities of the environment when in truth it is the system merely a llowing success for a minority. Which is the USA way. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n 0327/2026\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-netflix-the-new-segreg ation-in-entertainment/#findComment-80943\n\n\n\n osted just now\n\n\n\n @ProfD\n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Those types of i mmigrants are making it worse for others as these white folks are trying t o kick them out of the USA.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n but the issue we are discus sing is what people deem as wins\, what is accomplishment? is accomplishme nt what you say it \, what i say it is? I argue the definition to wins or accomplishments changes twixt individuals or groups and so it is challengi ng to apply standards of wins/accomplishment between individuals or groups . \n\n\n\n and to the point you raised\, not all white folks are trying t o kick them out... this goes back to Monrovia ... many whites did support blacks leaving but most supported blacks staying in the usa in perpetuity as enslaved\, so much so making the happy slave myth to make themselves fe el better\n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Seems selfish to go somewhere else &\; offer nothing. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n In the sa me way that you do not like liars\, I'm not fond of *takers* i.e. peop le who do not add &\;/or offer nothing to the situation &\;/or envir onment.\n\n\n\n even point. I comprehend your viewpoint 100% the problem f or the usa is it was founded by takers\, if you consider the native americ an heritages and cultures\, the usa was founded by takers\, who adding not hing positive to what was in existence.. so the usa has a heritage of will ing immigrants mostly adding nothing except negativities\, with only a min ority adding positives to the current situation. Chaos starters\n\n\n\n   \n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n I doubt those people m erely show up to drain the resources &\; live off the sweat equity of o thers.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n if you look at the settlers in palestinean lands \, that is all they do... they don't grow anything\, they definitely don't add to peace so... \n\n\n\n When israel first started it had a huge zion ist movement\, but I argue\, that the majority of white jews or even jews in humanity where anti zionist from a personal level\, meaning they suppor t the existence of israel but never want to live there. I shared in this f orum somewhere the reform jewish numbers. most jews are not orthodox are n ot looking to go to israel. but many give money/ support to keep it afloat . so... the people who tend to go there ... are a rarer type. \n\n\n\n Is rael has many issues but again\, it was started chaotically\, so I don't s ee why it having  a chaotic life isn't expected. \n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Anything can be accomplished through desire & amp\; will &\; effort.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n nature says nothing is ever t otally true\n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Clearly\, w e live in different parts of the USA.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n true and to that end\, that is also the problem \, the usa isn't a small town\, it is a cou ntry of three hundred and fifty million people who are in dissimilar envir onments. \n\n\n\n A solid thirty percent of black people in the usa and I argue fifty percent of Black DOSers live in small black towns where their financial life is very challenging from non black influences. I don't liv e in that exact environment and yet their are the financially affluent bla ck regions of Los Angeles or NYC or Atlanta where everyone black is millio naire or better. so... yes\, the us has different places \, different fina ncial environments \, always has\, and they don't relate. \n\n\n\n So whe n the usa is spoken of in one way\, because a person lives in one particul ar place is that reflective of the usa? no\, it is reflective of a particu lar place in the usa. That is not the same.\n\n\n\n   44 minutes ago\,  ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Many of us taught to accept the fact that life is no t fair.  However\, despite the negative obstacles that life will put in y our way\, do not allow it to impede the effort of pressing towards the m ark of the high calling. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Again\, I do not see anythin g positive coming out of those who cry/grumble/complain about how life is not fair in one way or several. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n These conditions exis ted before we were born. Especially for those of you who believe in procre ation regardless of the circumstances. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n So\, here we a re born into an unfair existence &\; left to figure this sh8t out durin g our time on the planet. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Some people find a way to  *win* while others wallow in pond of misery or despair or hopelessness.\n \n\n\n Expand  \n\n\n\n Ahh yes and that is a very statian turn of phrase . \n\n\n\n you see\, life is even\, life is beautiful. nature is even\, n ature is beautiful. \n\n\n\n And\, life isn't fair/white nor is it schart z/black\, nature as well isn't fair or schwartz. \n\n\n\n Human beings ma nipulate life into uneveness. manipulate life into being fair or schwartz.  \n\n\n\n IT isn't life that brings negative or positive obstacles in hum ans lives\, it is other humans. \n\n\n\n Those who confuse human actions as life is the great dysfunction\, this goes back to NAt Turner\, Jean JAc ques Dessalines\, the IRA\, what they are saying is Blacks folks problems aren't life but whites or Irish peoples problems aren't life but English.  \n\n\n\n Kill the whites\, kill the english and life becomes its natural neutral state. \n\n\n\n The problem is humans are not fools inside\, the y can tell themselves that life isn't even\, but they know the truth is li fe is even\, it is other humans making their lives uneven that they need t o change and the best way to do that isn't to play games with the humans t hat are making their lives uneven but to kill those humans making their li ves uneven \, and in face with that truth\, many humans lament\, the lie t hey were raised with. \n\n\n\n I have seen this \, as a tutor\, I have se en black parents say such things with my own eyes and I have refuted them to black children in their presence. \n\n\n\n It isn't life that is hard\ , your not broke/you don't have opportunities or resources because nature/ earth/life used ocean water and made a huge tide and grabbed our forebears off the land and carried our forebears in a bubble to other lands. Your c hallenges are white made\, not life made. \n\n\n\n Existence is always ev en\, always beautiful and never white/fair nor black/schwartz \n\n\n\n So admit the humans that are truly behind your woes which your parents know is true\, but are lying to you because they themselves have never faced th e true source of their own woes\, which is whites.\n\n\n\n And I will defe nd the pond of helplessness. It is no accident that the IRA was only three hundred people \, it is no accident that Black DOSers in what became Hait i alone made a country for DOSers in the American continent. \n\n\n\n The helpness comes because of another truth\, all humans know humans are the ones that make life imabalnced\, it is never life itself\, life is always trying to reach balance. Life is never trying to be white or black or unev en in any way. So that means some humans have to be taken out but most don 't have the courage for that. And this is what Zen meant. People think Zen means the person who does nothing amidst the chaos but misses that isn't Zen\, what Zen says is that any action is acceptible in nature. What this means isn't that one must exist within chaos\, what it means is any action \, no matter how violent isn't a sin\, isn't a negative\, isn't anything t o be afraid of. \n\n\n\n And that wisdom is what most parents\,\,\, sadfu lly\, don't convey to their children or are too afraid to face themselves.  \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n 03272026\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-ne tflix-the-new-segregation-in-entertainment/#findComment-80945\n\n\n\n oste d just now\n\n\n\n @ProfD\n\n\n\n   4 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Do you believe the takers improved the country or merely lived off that which was already developed? \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n The USA has undergone a major transformation over these past several hundred years &\; countin g.\n\n\n\n based on the first peoples heritage\, lifestyle \, the answer i s no. but white europeans publicly admitted they came to destroy the nativ e american no to improve anything concerning the native american so... lif e is balance\,  a country started by takers is itself took. \n\n\n\n Whi te immigration is older than the usa\, like so many things about the usa \ , the usa's birth didn't start any oof it. that immigration heritage didn' t start in 1776 but started in 1492. The blood feud between whites and bla cks didn't start in 1776 but started in 1492. \n\n\n\n Yes the usa has te chnology had many eras from 1776 to 2026. But\, in terms of the people\, t he heritage\, the culture\, the usa is in my mind\, only a little differen t than the white european colonies. Again JAmes Forten was a black man who owned a business in the english colonies and afterward with the creation of the usa but the black 1% has always existed. So... the meat and potatoe s of the usa are older than the usa.\n\n\n\n   4 hours ago\, ProfD sai d:\n\n\n\n All types of buildings &\; businesses will spring up once th e investors get a foothold.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n a foothold\, what stopped t hem these past fifty odd years\, what defines a foothold? \n\n\n\n and wh o are these investors exactly? \n\n\n\n   4 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n \n\n\n what are you going to about it?\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n How are you goin g to deal with the humans responsible for the unfair conditions?\n\n\n\n w ell\, did one white man enslave black people or did white people enslave b lack people. \n\n\n\n From my reading of history this was group activitie s not singular individuals so... The question is what are blacks going to do and if very few blacks are willing to come together and do then their r esides the reason for the \, pool or negativity. Not all problems are indi vidual based. One person can't handle the humans responsible. \n\n\n\n An d for the record\, just to make sure in case any read this\, i never said my plans to the future include mass genocide. My point is that many black people want that\, but they don't have the courage for that. And I will no t criminalize them because many people don't have the stomach for killing. And soldiers will tell you\, with all the training and sergeants yelling and speeches\, many soldiers are cowards. In movie land\, every soldier is looking to fight but anyone who knows anything about war knows all armies are full of cowards\, masquerading behind a gun. So\, I will not chagrin unarmed black people from not having the courage to be violent\, again the ira was only 300 people in an island with millions of irish\, i am not ex pecting a mass violent uprising from black dosers in the usa\, nor do I pl an for that\, but I am also honest enogh to admit many black people quietl y\, hate whites and this country \, and it is a strong heritage\, which le ads to a desire to not involve in this country or with its whites. And sad ly\, it also leads to a potent place of despair. \n\n\n\n   4 hours ag o\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Exactly.  What is the alternative if one is too cowardly to take out the enemy?\n\n\n\n many alternatives or other paths\ , as DOSers are the proof\n\n\n\n 1) Not all DOSers view whites of the usa as the enemy\, again James forten. So your question misses the blacks who don't view whites as the enemy in the first place\, and infinite paths co me from this. \n\n\n\n 2) To those too cowardly\, for whatever reason [an d many reasons exists for not killing\, not merely fear of killing] infini te paths exist\, the following are some. \n\n\n\n I) live peacefully with the enemy. and this takes many forms\, as DOSers show. \n\n\n\n II) find a land absent the enemy\, and this can take you anywhere\, as DOSers show . \n\n\n\n   4 hours ago\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n As humans\, parents do whatever it take to shield/protect their children from the realities of t his existence while also encouraging them to overcome it.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n \n Humans have been dancing this tango for thousands of years.  Nothing n ew under the sun.\n\n\n\n Well \, some parents care for their children wis ely\, not all. and some parents don't care for their children wisely. As a n artists\, someone in an art community one said that Disney is needed for kids to have something positive. We were discussing the lack of complex r elations in disney stories. and\, thinking on a thought i had communicatin g with you about the USA having only two aspects of itself 1) splitting fr om the english empire 2) the perception of usa eternity. I realize thinkin g on parents in the usa\, I was incorrect. 2 ) is media weapons. The USA h as a level of media unlike any country. The declaration of independence is an advertisement to a fake product. But when I extend beyond that I see\, the firms or peoples of the USA are also heavy media folk. \n\n\n\n The daughters of the american revolution worked to get a fals emedia narrative as truth\, to this day\, many people of all phenotypes still adhere to th e pfaux history that the daughters of the american revolution created. But it extends to many. \n\n\n\n Immigrant parents. How many immigrant paren ts have i heard say\, they love the usa. A lie. They don't love the usa\, they were desperate for financial betterment and went to the best place to get it with the least effort. \n\n\n\n Black DOSers\, if I hear one more black doser talk about forebears wanting to be Statian of the usa\, i wil l eat my own gizzard. Another lie. And the funny thing is \, any research into black art 1865 proves black people were very anti usa + white . but h eaded by the damn black church\, this myth of desired americanism came abo ut so much so that most black people in the usa today\, act in concert to that lie. \n\n\n\n And thus to Disney\, Disney comprehended the majority of people in the usa\, the customers\,  like to lie and lie to others and be lied to\, and the internet proves this. the internet as it is today is a usa creation and it proves the character of the majority in the usa gar dless of phenotype/gender or any racial category. \n\n\n\n The fables tha t disney took came from germany\, a country that has its many biases but t ends to actually be more honest. From martin luther who couldn't stand the commercialization of the medici popes\, the nazis who never said they wer e interested in world peace or making peace\, the nazis for all of their v iolence or criminal behavior never lied about their intentions to others. they lied to themselves about their own infallicy\, and it is interesting how the whites of the usa was the nazis primary mimick of style\, learn li es from the biggest liar\, but the nazi's still retained a level of german honesty. \n\n\n\n So yeah\, thank you profd\, the usa has two elements f rom itself\n\n\n\n 1) breaking away from england \n\n\n\n 2) media weapon ry culture\n\n\n\n but the individualism/fiscal capitalism/multiracialism/ immigration/regional infighting heritages or cultures were actually starte d by the english in the colonial era\, not of the usa. and I argue haven't changed much since then. \n\n\n\n Technology changing is a human thing\, that has nothing to do with any country\, that is human. \n\n\n\n  \n\n \n\n 03/29/2026\n\n\n\n https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12614-netflix-the-new-s egregation-in-entertainment/#findComment-81010\n\n\n\n osted just now\n\n \n\n @ProfD \n\n\n\n   On 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n As it relates to Palestine &\; more specifically the Gaza Strip\, I bel ieve it will look like Dubai in the future. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n The archi tects have already drawn up the blueprints.  Investors are lining up to g et a piece of the action. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n The USA &\; Israel are w orking out the deals.\n\n\n\n Well... in the future if you go far ahead en ough all places have another golden time plus a feces time\, that is why o f life. \n\n\n\n If you mean within fifty years \, I don't think so. \n\ n\n\n But I am glad you have this insider information that seems to be unk nown to many people black or non black\, so use it to gain fiscal wealth.\ n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n   On 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n i j ust don't see too much energy poured into mission either in action or rhet oric. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n There have been a few instances where groups of Black folks have attacked white folks but historically\, past to present\ , far more Black folks have been killed by white folks than vice versa.\n\ n\n\n well yes\, especially in the last five hundred years\, again\, human ity has been around a while\, so I resist speaking on all of human history \, i prefer some temporal domains on any issue\n\n\n\n   On 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n White people do.  They are human killing machines directly &\; indirectly.  History proves it.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\ n\n Right now\, the USA &\; Israel are dropping bombs on Iran.  What i s the death toll?\n\n\n\n in my read of history most whites don't either. most humans simply do not\,at least in my read of human history. \n\n\n\n I don't know the number of iranians murdered by usa +israel  in the last two years\, i know it is high\, and i know that the seeds of great negati vity are being born of it that will become something one day\n\n\n\n   O n 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Black people can buy weapon s &\; learn how to use them if they have the desire &\; will to do s o.\n\n\n\n i repeat many soldiers on battlefields\, with the most deadly w eapons\, trained every day\, being shot at\, are unable to use weapons\, t he presence of a weapon in your hands plus daily training plus your person al life threatened still doesn't equal automatic will to use weapons.\n\n\ n\n   On 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said:\n\n\n\n Similar to the per son in an abusive relationship.  They *h8te* being mistreated but won't f ight back or kill the abuser.  They stick around for 1) any benefits & \; 2) hoping &\; praying the abuse will stop.\n\n\n\n the biggest probl em in your allusion is the dysfunctional relationship between individuals and groups. \n\n\n\n The individual in an abusive relationship side anoth er individual has a great difference between a group in an abusive relatio nship side another group. \n\n\n\n When George Stinney was unevenly incar cerated by white law enforcers\, chaoticly and violently mobbed by white c itizens\, George Stinney's parents couldn't simply raise an army from the black populace. \n\n\n\n The black populace as a group isn't getting bene fits\, nor is the black populace as a group hoping and praying the abuse w ill stop\, the black populace as a group doesn't have a group mechanism.  \n\n\n\n A woman running from a man is not the same as a group of people r unning from another. Remember\, in any two groups interaction you have ind ividual interactions in all ways. During the time of George Stinney some b lack killed whites. It is about the mechanics of the group. \n\n\n\n And to that end\, the black populace of the usa has had various internal mecha nics\, but at the moment\, the black populace of the usa has arguably the weakest internal mechanics\, but based on black individuals who have chose n to influence the larger group that way.\n\n\n\n And the non black\, spec ifically old white populace has the same problem today. The reality is\, i n the 1900s the white populace in the usa became internally multiracial\, like the black. So the 2026 white populace has a more complex internal mec hanics than in 1960s\, or mid nineteen hundreds or earlier and many whites in the usa\, especially the old whites\, are having problems comprehendin g the change in internal mechanics of the white populace\, cause it was ne ver like this before. \n\n\n\n   On 3/27/2026 at 8:03 PM\, ProfD said :\n\n\n\n Over the past 200 years  counting\, the USA has produced the mo st innovation &\; technological changes that have been replicated aroun d the planet.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n the usa produced the most innovation \, I don't know about that. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n the first satellite was russi an/soviet\n\n\n\n the first system to have a human being in space was russ ian soviet\n\n\n\n the first integrated computer was english\n\n\n\n the f astest submarine is russian/soviet \, using liquid metal heated by the eng ine\n\n\n\n the fastest torpedo is soviet using supercavitation\n\n\n\n th e only domestic use of nuclear power engines is russian/soviet- these are ships that break ice circa north pole\n\n\n\n the first rockets or jet fig hters are german\n\n\n\n the earliest airships or dirigibles are french/ge rman\n\n\n\n the best dam building is from russia/soviets\n\n\n\n the mapp ing of the genome was an international effort\, it wasn't one country\n\n\ n\n first printed circuit boards  were german\n\n\n\n first electronic wa tch was swiss\n\n\n\n the first electronic watch with peizoelectric was ni ppon/japan\n\n\n\n we all know about benz from germany and the single stro ke engine\, his poor wife.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Everyone knows the usa never produced better weapons than germany during the second white european imp erial war\, but the usa \, like china  which is interesting historically \, are both big copiers and mass producers. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Innovatio n\, new things\, the usa isn't a big new things country.Other countries te nd to do that more during the usa's two hundred and fifty years.  Most te chnologies their source isn't the usa. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n The usa did ma ke the television. But the one innovation the usa did make that truly war rants note\, through ford\, was the assembly line.  And it is interesting cause the concept of the assembly line is about the goal of mass producti on. An assembly line can have a bunch of human beings with torches\, but t he key to technological changes\, polishings\, is the assembly line pushes mass production which is truly usa and something that china has grabbed o nto as a concept in light of the usa. Crafting from ancient times was neve r a mass produced idea\, the idea is to make something efficient\, long la sting\, but the assembly line idea busted through that concept.   In par allel\, when I look at soviet russia\, arguably the problem with soviet ru ssia is that it truly adopted the german technological heritage from the w eimar district of efficient innovation\, the ancient human heritage of qua lity craft. The usa created the modern culture of hype schools\, the ivy l eagues. In the usa you say you go to a school or work for a firm and the h ype of that is superior to the quality of a place. In germany \, demerit i s real\, failure leads to demerit. but in the usa\, one can exist above de merit. You see this with Schrumpft\, he epitomizes that statian heritage i n government. Wheras in germany in weimar\, the idea was effectiveness. As I said to you before\, the usa's greatest two aspects is : one break away from the british and two\, the culture of advertisement from the declarat ion of independence through the radio\, the usa didn't create radio\, thro ugh television\, through the internet [the usa did create the protocols us ed by most today\, but not the internet itself\, the internet is really a web of webs of various protocols made by various groups or organizations\, the usa through its advertising skill got most to fall in line to it]  t he usa is a master of selling ideas\, not the truth\, but selling ideas\, getting people to buy into them\, prosyletization [ which I can't stand bu t there you have it] .  \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n If you look deep alot of tec hnologies were not from the usa but the usa mass manufactured\, that fisca l capitalistic power made sure the usa profited financially from it\, but that ins't innovation. Just because someone makes money off a thing doesn' t mean they thought of it. \n\n\n\n And to black folks\, people will say george washington carver was american but Percy Julian proves black engine ers in days past didn't see themselves as american\, not honestly. You say things in public\, but do you really believe. As james baldwin said\, ver y honestly\, which is rare for most in the public eye\, I paraphrase\, his father never hurt whites one bit\, but his father hated whites to the pit of his soul. \n\n\n\n We talk about black parenting and why it was so ha rsh but black parents weren't happy. I think we as descendents of black pa rents of mid to late eighteen hundreds to mid nineteen hundreds \, as per the usa's influence\, have created an advertisement campaign to ourselves\ , lying about our forebears to make our choices seem better. \n\n\n\n  \ n\n\n\n @Pioneer1\n\n\n\n   On 3/28/2026 at 11:19 AM\, Pioneer1 said:\ n\n\n\n Hmmmm.......\n\n Interesting exchange between you two.\n\n \n\n So metimes it's pleasant to just sit back and READ the points of view of othe rs.\n\n\n\n glad you are enjoying yourself\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n @Mel Hopkins \n\n\n\n   On 3/28/2026 at 11:44 AM\, Mel Hopkins said:\n\n\n\n We  h ave black owned radio stations  and cathy hughes' urbanone network.

If you look at most wealthy people today in the black po pulace for example\, it is like whites\, mostly inheritors. In the 1960s b lack people with money were mostly people born financially poor who made i t rich but now\, inheritors is ninety percent like with all demographics o r peoples in the usa\, \n\n\n\n What is my point? \n\n\n\n The people wi th money in a community are always the financial leaders and in absence it is tough. \n\n\n\n I can take nyc\, the financial center of white jews/i rish/italians and all three have their mobs to thank for everything. what are mobs ? financially wealthy organizations involved in illegal activitie s\, run by people mostly grew up poor. When the italians/white jews/irish folk wanted to go legal they still used illegal money to make it happen.  \n\n\n\n So\, you need the big money folk. To that end\, everyday I see bl ack millionaires and billionaires investing in white enterprises. they are not blind\, they know the black populace has needs\, so if they are unwil ling to use their money to support he black populace\, then they simply ar e. \n\n\n\n Again\, how many black people from the 1960s to today paid fo r a black person to go to a non historical black college? \n\n\n\n that i s arguably billions of dollars mostly given to non black colleges? black c olleges are arguably the oldest non religious /secular black organizations in the united states of america\, so... no excuse for lack of heritage.  \n\n\n\n I comprehend your greater point but you need to really eye the bl ack fiscal wealthy for that lacking. And if for no other reason\, fiscal h onesty. \n\n\n\n that jewish art gallery\, where you get your money from\ , the loans\, the local bank? feces\,you had some rich white jew help you\ , through the synagoge. \n\n\n\n that italian construction company\, wher e you get the commissions? on merit\, feces\, you had connections with you r cousin in the mob. \n\n\n\n I don't think any shame exist getting help\ , but for some reason\, maybe @ProfD can answer\, people in the usa have a huge problem being honest when it comes to who helped them out financia lly. They seem ashamed to say it is a mob or a financial friend in some fo rm? why be ashamed? the usa has never been place where the public way lead s to anything. \n\n\n\n Women in the usa who have big houses and sent all their kids to school talk about how they worked hard... you got a financi al stipend from a man who abused you worth millions of dollars. You marrie d a billionaire forty years your senior. I am not criminalizing\, but too many in the usa who have wealth are very ashamed of their history of finan cial transactions. \n\n\n\n How many black people started businesses with fbi/cia money? when they gave them cash to sell out black people and they used that to start businesses\, support their kids? why can't they say? w hat are they ashamed of? \n\n\n\n whites in the usa who got money from th eir great uncle who runs a private prison which has been in operation sinc e the late 1800s\, a family treasure. not paying encarcerated people while they took all the money and skimmed for road building. \n\n\n\n If more people in the usa would admit the truth of their financial transactions es pecially in financing\, that would push people to embrace fiscally wealthy people being responsible for not investing in things. Stop telling fiscal ly poor people about their pennies. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n @Mel Hopkins \n\ n\n\n   On 3/28/2026 at 12:15 PM\, Mel Hopkins said:\n\n\n\n We can to o! That is still our medium. But I get your point\, we don't have the othe r media.  Heck we barely have newspapers!\n\n\n\n every group barely has newspapers\, should black people be that financially other? again\, in NYC \, i see lot of newspaper gravesites.  is it up to blacks to go against f inancial trends in a country where we are not the majority populace?\n\n\n \n  \n\n\n\n @Pioneer1\n\n\n\n   On 3/28/2026 at 12:20 PM\, Pioneer1  said:\n\n\n\n Which is crazy because back in the 50s and 60s not only did every Black community have it's own paper but nearly every Black highschoo l had it's own Black newspaper.\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n You didn't need a Scrip ts Howard back then.\n\n  \n\n\n\n Black students were learning journalis m (among other skills and trades) BEFORE they graduated from Highschool.\n \n  \n\n\n\n Expand  \n\n\n\n It isn't crazy\, why do you say it is craz y? \n\n\n\n every fiscal firm has numerical realities. paper cost money\, reporters cost money [cost of living/extra wage/competitive wage influenc e]\, shipping newspapers cost money. Can you get advertising for your news paper? the village voice is gone\, that was a public newspaper\, the reaso n was simple\, it was unaffordable\, even with adveritisng the adult /erot ic/similar stuff\, they couldn't afford their cost of operation. \n\n\n\n Your saying its crazy black people don't have newspapers like clearly if I started a newspaper right now in debt\, the debt would be covered in a m onth. \n\n\n\n I think newspapers are a negative business. \n\n\n\n Firs t\,the two methods of getting money are thin now: subscriptions + advertis ements. \n\n\n\n Subscriptions are tough cause across the demographic boa rd in the usa\, so not just black people\, people don't read long form. or paper based communication. many newspapers have tried online but again\, a website isn't free to host\, a website cost money to maintain and overti me only increase. \n\n\n\n Advertising is tough cause advertisers have me trics\, in the past or today\, they know what people aren't viewing/being influenced by\, so why should a firm advertise. \n\n\n\n Look at the amst erdam news in NYC. it is fortunate. It has a black wealthy populace in NYC \, specifically manhattan that is old\, has a heritage of support for the amsterdam news. Most black newspapers don't have a fiscally wealthy black minority in the black populace of the city they are in like the Amsterdam News. \n\n\n\n And I know you well enough that you always want to fall on the fiscally poor only using black newspapers to keep them alive but... I can't tell what would reading the amsterdam news really give back to the fiscal black poor of nyc if they were to each invest per month or two week s into the amsterdam news. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n \n\n DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260324 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
