Yesterday Twitter announced they are permanently banning President Trump's Twitter account. After a "close review," Twitter concluded that 45 violated their, "Glorification of Violence policy." Twitter is full of shit. I don't even follow 45 on Twitter, but the stuff I've seen him Tweet over the years has been just as inflammatory. Twitter more than any other social media platform is responsible for the rise of 45, as they provided the platform to amplify his lies and rhetoric. Just how much more money did Twitter make as a direct result of being 45's megaphone? Billions I'm sure. In order to maximize revenue Twitter has taken hands off approac…

Over 20 years ago I moved back to my old neighborhood, with my family. In many ways it was a completely different neighbor. There was far less crime and no vacant lots. Banks, grocery stores, and other businesses one would expect in a community were now present. @Delano has been to this place. The generified Harlem. Technically, I was a "gentrifier," someone coming into an impoverished neighborhood with contrasting middle class values. Having come from the very neighborhood, I knew better than to come in with guns blazing trying to impose bougie middle class values on the people already there. This is a mistake my white counterpart often made. …

What in the World is Going on In SUDAN! Should we as African Americans and Americans, in general, be concerned? Even though I was completely captivated about the celestial wonders going on in the middle of the month of April 2023, however, I was amazed at what I was hearing and reading about the conlfict in Sudan too, but at first, I didn't believe it was significant. I initially heard casual reports about many European and American officials being rushed out of Sudan and flown safely back to their European countries of origins but then, the news reports continued until finally, they became reported as NEWSBREAKS! Subconciously, I so…

Psyche! This thread is Rated: EB (for every body) If I want to address ProfD alone, I'll PM him.....lol. He MAY be best able to answer this question since he resides in the DMV area, but anybody is welcomed to chime in. With all of this talk about Trump sending in Federal officers and national guardsmen into D.C. and now I read where the state of West Virginia is deploying troops there as well. I'm curious as to WHERE all of this security will be concentrated. I don't know TOO much about D.C. but I've heard that the South East quadrant was the most dangerous and heard stories from people including relatives about Anacostia …

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/house-vote-full-epstein-files-release-move-speaker/story?id=127593181 It didn't take long for Bill Cosby, R. Kelly and Diddy to be charged and convicted and punished for crimes against women whether they were guilty or not. For whatever reason, white folks are having a hard time releasing the files on pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Apparently, the file contains the names of powerful people who supposedly weren't guilty of getting down with underage girls but they hung out with Epstein. The talking point is these powerful people shouldn't be exposed and/or have their lives ruined because they were…

“I believe in the one-drop theory,” Halle Berry says in the latest issue of Ebony. She makes that statement to explain why she considers her daughter, who has three white grandparents, to be black. "I want Black people to know that I haven’t abandoned them because I’ve had a child with a man outside of my race and I’m dating someone now outside my race who is Spanish and French." A few thoughts: "Spanish" and "French" are not races but nationalities. White is not "outside my race" for someone who is half white. The concept of "outside" presumes race as a boundary for human interaction. When Berry was born, the one-drop rule was still the law of th…

Chris Rock’s comment about white people’s day creates an angry buzz The Examiner Marci Stone Friday, comedian Chris Rock experienced quite a bit of backlash after his “white people’s day” comment on July 4th; Rock, who thought he was being funny tweeted a joke to followers, but his comment has stirred controversy.

The Fall of Indie Discussion Forums I'm not sharing this here because I expect a lot of people to read it, or find it particularly interesting. When I saw the level of engagement, overtime, and the variety of opinions expressed, it reminded me of these forums back in their heyday, so that is why I shared it. I always prefered Youtube as a social media network over Facebook. You can make money on Youtube, when you post content. As far as I know they are they only major social network that does that. The quality of youtube content (videos) is simply better overall and Youtube doesn't censor content and exert so much control over what people get to see. The differences c…

A PHOTO~ THE ORIGINAL BLACK AFRICANS & JEWS IN THE EAST & NORTHEAST: ABKHAZIA There is so much HIDDEN HISTORY that has not been a part of our Western Civilization Educational System and this information about the ABKHAZIA would be just one of many missing pieces. At once, I thought that this term did not apply to the Original Jews or Israel [ie the Ten Tribes; Joseph] but I stumbled across some information recently, that causes me to have to do some more research. I thought the term KHAZITE, and KHAZIA referred to ethnic people of the MEDIEVAL time in the east and northeast world that marked a distinct kind of people that later became associated with J…

Depending on what part of the country you live in, interracial marriage can still be a very controversial issue. Although most people of all ethnic groups tend to stay within their race, there are those who still take issue with the matter. But some black/white marriages stand out more than others. For example, a very dark skinned black person who is with a blond, blue eyed pale skinned white person is going to draw the most fire from both the white and black communities (especially if it's a black man with a white woman). On the other hand, a racially ambiguous, white passing black with a Mediterranean white would be less noticeable because their…

Masada~ The Boston Tea Party of the Past Part I Masada And Ezekiel’s prophecy does agree with the other prophets in this regard but at the time that he wrote his book, who would ever think that Ezekiel knew what he was actually writing about!?

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/30/trump-trial-verdict-hush-money.html Former POTUS Orange Julius was found guilty on all 34 counts in hush money trial. Yet, Truth Social website crashed because it was flooded with campaign donations for his reelection bid. Remains to be seen whether or not he gets jail time. Doesn't stop him from running for POTUS. Let's see if the American people are silly enough to re-elect a clown with so many cases that he's running for POTUS with hands tied behind his back.😁😎

Like old man Junior Sopranos said about little "tough guy" Richie Aprile, when he was trying to decide who should be his successor as head of the Soprano Crime Family. "He couldn't "sell it. He couldn't fuckin' sell it. ....he's not respected." Kamala Harris simply couldn't sell herself or her message to the American people as effectively as Trump. She wasn't RESPECTED as much as he was nor was he admired or even "liked" by as many people. For over a year I've seen TEENAGERS in the mall right out of highschool singing about and praising Trump. He's a household name. His "brand" sells. The message is fucked up, racist, sexist, and backwa…

Al Green (D-TX) has filed articles of impeachment against POTUS OJ with regard to the Gaza Strip. Members of Congress have already stated the US stands with Israel. The Israelis have top cover to wipe Gaza off the map. Rep. Al Green and the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) should be working on a reparations bill. Especially since Democrats are dead in the water on any other legislation over the next 4 years. They have plenty time on their hands. Make it productive.😎

EDITORS NOTE (June 2017): As of March 2016, after a 5 year run, Huria Search’s run as a standalone site ended. I could not longer justify the additional expense. I found the search engine useful so transferred it here: https://aalbc.com/huria/ so that I and a few others could continue to use it. About a year ago Google announced that they are discontinuing the underlying service which drives Hura Search, so i'm note sure how much longer it will continue to operate.

Well, guess everybody has run out of things to say. Not surprising. The discussions here always evolve into debates, and few of us are swayed by the arguments of others. Anecdotal evidence, sociological studies, and scientific proof all muddy the picture and we end up with a negative that isn't developed. We all embrace our truths and distrust the source of rebuttals to them. What goes on here is kind of a reflection of the world-at-large and the reason why this country is in disarray. I find myself withdrawing from what is happening all around me, pondering if intelligent design is involved in the Universe, it needs to go back to the drawing board because hum…

I don't know where I've been. But I was not aware of this film until my wife suggested to check it out. Am I the only one? Now I know I'm not completely out of the pop culture loop because I was totally aware of Girls Trip. The crazy thing is that I would really like to see a film like Detroit and have less than zero interest in seeing Girls Trip, which looks like a Black female version of The Hangover part III. I wonder what the respective marketing budgets are for these films are and where they advertise. At any rate here is Kam's Review. I have not published anything by him lately.

...something for @harry brown Harry L. Thomas, founder of the Creation Festival and senior pastor of Come Alive New Testament Church in Medford, New Jersey, has been accused of sexually assaulting four children over a 16-year period between 1999 and 2015. (as reported by Christianity Today). This is not a problem with the Church, per se, but a problem with powerful degenerates abusing their power. We've seen a rash of revelations coming from Hollyweird, politicians, media, and obviously the Church. What puzzles me is the complete lack of sexual abuse revelations coming from Wall Street. I guess those cats have enough power than to pre…

Two and a half years, Americans were left toiling, unlawfully – like slaves. 30 months in a timeless zone of what they knew; what they were. Extracted and uprooted by the thousands, for this very purpose, to Western Texas, far from justice and away from humanity. But for now, forget the ones that survived, for some died not knowing they were free, not knowing their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren have survived their plight.
