Ok @richardmurray let me see if I got this straight...... Among Black people, you say there are 2 main "tribes" here in the U.S. : -The Black "DOSers" -The Black "Statians" Or are there more? Lol.....and which tribe does Cynique aka The Contrarian fit in to?

Any Africans or West Indians or AfroLatinos out there who have a desire to come in and sit down with their AfroAmerican family? As you can see @frankster.......... Nobody is stopping other Black people from the Diaspora from coming among us and dialoging and connecting....if that's what they WANT to do. This is a free forum. There's no charge to join it. Infact, a lot of Africans and West Indians are authors of books and this site would be a good place for them to promote their books. Who's holding them back? What has held them back?

For you Bible believers out there (and you know who you are...lol), when you read about someone being called a "son of man" in the Old Testament. When you read that term in the original Hebrew or Aramaic....it literally means the "son of Adam". Why is this important? The Hebrew word for man (mature male) is "ish" The Hebrew word for humanity is "inoshut" Adam doesn't mean "man" nor does it man "humanity".....it's a SPECIFIC TYPE of person.

The USA government has been on a bombing & killing campaign since last year. Fishing boats accused of narco-terrorism have been blown up. Operation Midnight Hammer destroyed Iranian nuclear capabilities supposedly. Venezuelan President Maduro was captured & extradited to the US. Right now, Operation Epic Fury, another joint effort with Israel is underway in Iran. Then, there's ICE rounding up & deporting innocent people & shooting white folks who get in their way. Hundreds if not a thousand people have been unalived by way of the US government over the past 12 months or so. …

This fella went on a shooting spree down in Texas in wake of the US & Israeli airstrikes on Iran. The shooter killed 3 & injured a dozen or so before law enforcement laid him down. For the most part, Black folks have done a great job in minding their own bizness & staying out of these conflicts. There will be a few stray Black folks who decide to drink the Kool-Aid & ride with the BS. They do not represent the rest of us.😎

*Well now, isn’t this interesting. It seems as though Rainbow Push Coalition founder and former Democratic presidential candidate Jesse Jackson is in the hot seat. Karin Stanford, who was Jackson’s mistress and fathered a child with the civil rights leader, is slapping Jackson with court papers claiming that the former Democratic presidential candidate owes $11,64.50 in child support for their 12-year-old daughter Ashley. The National Enquirer exposed the long-term extramarital affair in an exclusive in January 2001. Jackson, who is still married to his wife, Jackie, admitted paternity. He paid court-ordered support and regularly visited Ashley in Stockton, Calif.…

Russia, Ukraine, China and US debt are messing with the economic future of this technological planet? Spaceship Earth is a Mess! Believing in ideologies is nonsense. The people who claim to be Capitalists want the workers kept ignorant. Adam Smith: Download Wealth of Nations, it has been in the public domain, and free on the internet, since 2001. Search it for "and account", you will find multiple instances of "read, write and account". Why doesn't the right or the left advocate mandatory accounting/finance in the schools?

Race, Technology, and Algorithmic Bias | Vision & Justice || Radcliffe Institute Artificial intelligence has become woven into the fabric of modern life. From recommendation systems and voice assistants to hiring algorithms and medical diagnostics, AI now influences how we work, communicate, and make decisions. Yet as the power and presence of AI expand, so too does awareness of one of its most complex and troubling characteristics—bias. Bias in AI is not merely a technical flaw; it is a mirror reflecting the imperfections of human society. It arises when systems trained to be “objective” inherit the prejudices, inequities, and blind spo…

Chicago and the nation are mourning the passing of legendary civil rights activist, Jesse Jackson. Although the family's request for him to lie in state at the Capitol rotunda was denied, his casket will be trotted out at 4 different venues in Chi-Town and DC, and his South Carolina birthplace. In embellishing his acquaintance with Jesse, Trump called him "a piece of work". Take's one to know one... RIP Jesse.

This is the origin of the Theory Of Evolution Charlese Darwin.....a notorious racist.....is widely considered one of the founding fathers of this Theory that White archeologists and other scientists promote in their institutions and that so many silly Black folks support for it's "out of Africa" claims. Notice the term "the preservation of FAVOURED races" in the subtitle? In a nutshell, the Theory of Evolution states that apes OR an ape like species evolved into Africans....and then the Africans evolved into other races. In other word, Africans are LESS EVOLVED and CLOSER TO APES! That's the theory! Do any of you support that? If you sup…

Award shows make money by promoting fashions or selling advertising/sponsorship space, the giving of awards is only the teaser to the profit, giving awards don't make money on their own. Money making can not coincide with everything else. To restate, if you want an civil thoughtful courteousnes/place of a court, that can not occur alongside fiscal capitalistic profiteering. Sooner or later, or inevitably, fiscal capitalistic profiteering will lead to a lack of civlity or a lack of thoughtfulness, from some human actors. https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/658-economic-corner-35-02232026/

The following was written by Arthur Rickydoc Flowers and is an excerpt from his substack post. ---------- So recently on Substack I was made aware of the FBA (Foundational Black Americans) and ABOS (American Descents of Slavery) movements, etc, and expressed my contempt for this latest expression of Black insecurity boosting itself with petty bullshit cutting us off from the Diaspora. I was responding to an informative piece (link below) on the phenom and I was like whats FBA and boy did I get impassioned responses, including from my sister, Elise, who apparently been in contention with them for years, I am truly out of the loop, I don’t really d…

https://www.cnn.com/sport/live-news/nba-fbi-sports-betting-probe-10-23-25 The FBI seems to be on a mission to crackdown on sports betting. No surprise the 1st people they arrested were a Black coach and player. These dudes were not ringleaders by any stretch of the imagination. The mafia and other rich people are the driving forces behind sports betting. Remains to be seen how many of them will be indicted. The issue I have is why milionaire Black athletes and coaches jeopardize their bag for chump change. It is possible that gangsters could lean on them to cooperate. However, there are recourses if they need pr…

What is Zipf's Law? "Zip's Law is a statistical observation that describes the frequency distribution of words in a language. It states that the frequency of a word is inversely proportional to its rank in the frequency table. In simpler terms, the most common word in a language appears roughly twice as often as the second most common word, three times as often as the third most common word, and so on. This law applies to many languages and even to other phenomena like city populations, income distributions, and website traffic. It's a fascinating observation that has sparked research into its underlying causes, with potential explanations ranging from cognitive…
