@ChevdoveHi. Did you watch the World Track and Field Finals on NBC tonight? Weren't the relays thrilling! Our girls really did their thing, taking first place. The first person I thought about was you, wondering if you were checking this out. 😃

Won the weekend:) Happy for Peele https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1999&type=status

It was mentioned in another thread but here's my PSA.😁 As the pandemic tries to subside and many folks are comfortable with getting vaccinated, it looks like the WHO (World Health Organization) is throwing a new virus on us. Hot off the press...Monkeypox is becoming a growing health concern. Right now, there are close to 17,000 cases of monkeypox worldwide. Nevermind there are approximately 8 billion people on the planet. The US has ordered 2.5 million doses of monkeypox vaccine. As of today, there are approximately 2,500 cases in the US. i wonder what they know that we don't about this virus. It's been around …

Black people are not monolithic. There are political differences among us like anyone else. Moreover Conservative Black Republicans have become more visible and vocal since the Reagan Era in the 1980s. But I wonder if differences extend to dating and marriage among black people. Can two black people with very different political views have a relationship, and even be in love? I know from reading this is rare among white people who tend to date, marry, and socialize with those holding similar political views. What about us ?

Were our black women always this damn violent? Its really getting out of control and makes black women look very bad. Black women not only commit violent assaults but also murder and armed robbery MUCH MORE than any other race. Again, this is fact. One just needs to look at recent video footage and news articles, its absolutely insane. Black women are angry, scary, and vicious. Its the black culture and lack of family values, structure, and poor impulse contol.

Troy, it's funny how earlier this morning I was expressing my distrust of many online pay methods.....just a few minutes after I made my post THIS brutha (Rizza Islam) discussed a new Black owned online payment method that was getting ready to be launched. He briefly mentions it in this interview:

Do you think @Greg is a Black fool or a White racist?

I was lucky to see, hear and occasionally interact with Black Genius. I will shamelessly name bomb after I compile the list

Moses Was NOT the Only One to Prophecy the Slave Ship Trade Specifically, Moses and most of the major prophets did not only prophesy about slavery and the selling of human beings into slavery by ship, but they pinpointed the most critical time period that did not occur until thousands of years after the rise and fall of many great civilizations. Even though slavery and the sale of humans by means of shipping happened in the old world, the prophecy written down in the Bible was about one main epoch: the Transatlantic Slave Ship Trade. Why though? What was so critical to write about this event to the affect that the very first author of the Holy Bible wr…

While surfing Youtube I happened upon these two White men engaged in a surprisingly interesting discussion on Creativity and how it is often fostered or crushed in our society. Something tells me Mel would enjoy this and Del would find this video delightful, lol. Not terribly impressive but a nice way to spend an hour. (6) Lectures: Exploring the Psychology of Creativity - YouTube

What else is new. This is just how our black men act. It’s embarrassing .

We can at least solve a large part of our border crisis . Take our violent inner city thugs who live off the system ( tax payers) and commit violent crime and then TRADE THEM for some hard working central and South Americans who actually work. I will take that trade all day long ! We can send the thugs to Central America and they can live with the cartels and ms13. That will not only solve a large part of the crisis at the border but it will reduce our violent crime rate by about 75% and will help our black communities greatly . We still need a wall in order to prevent bad people from coming in and also need to know the identity of those that come here. …

Was King Tut Black? Did He Look African? This video showed up on my channel and whenever these topics about ancient Egypt are featured, as they usually are consistently today, I always tune in. I strongly believe that this aspect of ancient history about Africa and Ancient Egypt, would be a crucial aspect in understanding our human plight today. I remember about twenty years ago, when the subject of what King Tut really looked like came up and was featured in the National Geographic, how many Black people became outraged that the scientist at this time, revealed their findings in that King Tut was anything but Black. Oh! Black people …

Some folks are in a tizzy because POTUS PJB fist bumped the Saudi crown prince MBS. Those people are still salty because MBS ordered the execution of a journalist. It's a business trip for POTUS PJB. Saudi Arabia can open the spigot (OPEC) and flood the market with oil. I believe US national average gas prices will drop below $4 per gallon this fall right before the midterm elections. When gas is cheaper Americans will be wishing POTUS PJB hugged MBS. 🤣 Politcs is a dirty business. Then, there is a darker side. 😎

3 violent Black women attacked an innocent white woman who was coming home from work on a bus in New York. The black women said they hated white people and went into a typical vioent trance and attacked the white woman. https://nypost.com/2022/07/14/nyc-woman-attacked-on-bus-after-anti-white-sentiment/

2 teenage Black girls are being charged with murder after beating a 74 year old man to death. These thugs didnt need a gun. Just goes to show we need thug control NOT gun control. Hope they die in prison. Guarantee they were born to young mothers and there is no structure in their homes. This is all too common. More violent black teens and these were girls. Just stunning !!!!! https://www.fox29.com/news/james-lambert-death-girl-14-turns-herself-in-for-beating-death-of-73-year-old-in-north-philly-police-say

There may be a liquidity crunch that cascades through the industry. Celsius is in reorganisation.

More and more Latinos and Hispanics are moving to the Republicans. The reason why is because they don’t like illegal immigration, attacks on God and attempts to destroy the traditional family. When are Black people going to Wake Up and vote their interest and not follow the fraudulent Political class?

Gun terror in America This showed up on my channel. After watching, I thought about how other countries and peoples view us here in America. Just how does media influence the way other people think about America today? Is the gun violence really the way that this report portrays? I did not realize it was on this scale from the viewpoint of others outside of America until I watched this video.

Here are 3 thugs, or Black Karen’s aka ,” Sheniqua’s“. Look at the deplorable behavior by 3 black women against a defensless Asian in New York, its disgusting. After they destroy his business by breaking and throwing stuff and using very profane language, they then start to do some very strange tribal like dance. The one girl stands on a table and starts doing a strange dance and shaking her fat backside. This seems to be a growing problem with black women getting violent and extremely rude and beligerent. This is actually very disturbing behavior. https://sports.yahoo.com/wild-video-shows-three-women-120942928.html There is also another video from F…

Statistics clearly show that Blacks commit about 60% of all violent crime in America despite them being 14% of the population. Why is this? No family structure and a community that condones young girls having babies. Other minorities that come to this country without money and without speaking our language still surpass blacks. Its amazing !!!! Maybe black women need to find a moral compass and black men have to stop committing violent crime and serious drug offenses?? I think so ! Lets stop making excuses and start acting like mature adults. By the way, using some big words doesnt do anything either. We need to take personal responsibility. Lets stop blaming w…

Sometimes when I'm driving down the street and listening to Hiphop...especially old school Hiphop artists like Ice Cube, LL Cool J, Pete Rock And CL Smooth, ect....I have to marvel and shake my head at the creativity and wisdom involved in coming up with the lyrics they rhyme. Not just the lyrics but the flow. When you sit down and think about it, you have to say there's a Divine Spark in some of these brothers that allow them to not only come up with the words but to put them together in such a captivating and entertaining way. It's just a shame that it's often used negatively. Nobody can tell me that that same Creativity can't be used to build buildi…

If the premise the question is based on is illogical....then that makes the question illogical. Take Del's question for example.............. "What if you discovered that everything you believe is wrong" First of all, if you "discovered" something....you obviously BELIEVE that which you claim to have discovered. So that discovery is part of your BELIEFS. Now if you're gonna claim that "everything" you believe is wrong....then you would HAVE to acknowledge that your recent "discovery" was wrong too since it's a part of your beliefs. However that wouldn't make any sense because for that statement to be true.....you couldn't be correct about your …

There's something I've been noticing about White society and especially the "alternative" and "conspiracy" communties in White society, for some time now.... I've looked at this closely and it appears that the ONLY time they go against the grain, against the establishment, and reveal something "new" is AFTER a Black person reveals it. What do I mean? I'll give a few examples.............. Take Troy's thread on fake news and how so many people NOW acknowledge that the news is fake and manipulative. Well, prior to the 60s you didn't hear any talk. Back then and before it was assumed that everything reported in the mainstream media was "gospel trut…

Hey @Delano are you up on this: https://www.jovianarchive.com/get_your_chart? If you plug in your information can you make heads or tails of it? If so does it seem accurate to you? Here is my chart:

Inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate hikes are making more difficult for Black Americans to survive. Yet Democrats and the Black Leaders are failing to be truthful with the Black Community.

Interesting where the deadliest diseases originated in the past 30 years. Many people in our black community like to pull things from the sky and make up fake phrases such as white man disease when the Truth is that almost all of the diseases come from Africa, China, and South/ Central America. The American’s find the cures. Covid- originated in China bird flu- china ebola - africa HIV ( AIDS ) - africa Zika virus - africa swine flu - mexico

@Chevdove @Franchesca ((but obviously anyone can chime in)) Why did God allow it? Both of you seem to love quoting the Bible and the prophecies of the Bible and how it relates to the plight and destiny of Black people here in the United States. An often favorite prophecy pointed to is the one in Genesis where "Abraham's seed" is supposed to be oppressed for over 400 years and then rescued. But my question to you two is why did God ALLOW our people to go through that in the first place? I know it's prophecied in scripture, however did it HAVE TO go down that way? What was the purpose of allowing our people to suffer for hundreds …

A public service announcement from Truth Check, featuring Jenifer Lewis. Truth Check was created by The Center for Black Health & Equity

Cynique sounds ridiculous. For whatever reason she pretends to refuse to accept all the freedoms and luxuries our flag has afforded both her and her family. Her crude and spoiled remark about our Flag shows how ignorant she is. She called our flag a rag. Was her birth certificate written on a rag? Was the 13th and 14th amendments to abolish slavery written on one of your rags Cynique? You are classless and I wonder what your dad thinks about your spoiled brat behavior. He is probably mortified.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jayland-walker-death-protest-breonna-taylor-jacob-blake-relatives-arrested/ Adding insult to injury, Akron police arrest protesters. They weren't being destructive or violent. Akron police have enough questions to answer considering how they mowed that young man down. Yet, they show no empathy. The police should be handing out bottled water and doing whatever it takes to make peace with the community they've sworn to protect and serve. 😎

Spoiled entitled brat Brittney Griner show boats by kneeling for our flag. Im sure she is regretting it big time now. I guess she is loving all the freedoms our beautiful flag represents after seeing what real injustice is all about opposed to fake injustice. This is what happens when a bunch of spoiled thugs protest issues they have absolutely no clue about. Maybe the brat thug gets released soon and she could be more respectful. In an ironic twist, Brittney who was trying to play the victim role is now an actual victim. Be careful for what you wish for.

Embattled UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is set to resign at some point. Maybe PM Johnson will finally get to the barbershop for a decent hair cut. He also needs to see a tailor to get fitted for suits. After 60 members of his government quit, PM Johnson has lost the confidence of his party. The citizens are ready to see his circus leave town too. I hope the US will be fortunate enough to keep its former clown in chief from bringing his big top back to Washington. All it takes is for the GOP to close ranks and shut him out. Unfortunately, power and greed are intoxicating. 😎

I don't have an answer... yet.

Brittney Griner, a Black female basketball player just plead guilty to drug charges in Russia and now faces up to 10 years in prison. Totally ridiculous. That being said, what the heck was she thinking bringing that into Russia! Absolutely stunning !!! Just dumb ! I guess the American Justice System is looking pretty darn good ! The United States has the best justice system in the world. Maybe BLM should go to Russia and start protesting but that would be too much work. BLM goes for the low hanging fruit and they only protest and riot when it can make them money and they can line their greedy pockets. Hopefully they let her go home to her family, its wro…

I didnt leave the black community, the black community left me. Yep, that just about sums it up. When i was growing up, my parents ( BOTH ) taught me to take responsibility for my actions, respect my elders, respect my teachers, respects the police, work hard, and most of all , they taught me that Im not owed anything from anyone. They also told me to treat everyone the way I wanted to be treated. I was friends with both blacks and whites as were my parents. We acknowledged our past and our past struggles but we never let the past block our future. My dad was MR. ANTI EXCUSE ! All three of us : my sister, brother and myself all did very well for ourselvew and have 3 …

There are literally mass shootings every day in our Black communities. Blacks murdering other Blacks. Its absolutely insane ! No one wants to talk about it even though everyone knows its happening. My god, Chicago alone has about 30 shootings in just one weekend and Im not including this weekend. Im not going to even mention baltimore, detroit, NYC, new orleans, memphis, philadelphia, and other black area’s. This doesnt include violent home invasions, armed robberies, car jackings, and other violent crimes. The common denomonator is that almost every single suspect in these violent crimes are Black males and even Black females. Many are BLM supporters but wh…

Another mass shooting yesterday in Philadelphia at a 4th of July parade. The shooters were black men and 2 are now in custody and being charged with murder. At least 3 people were murdered and 2 police officers were injured. .At least 14 people were shot. The city mayor is calling the mass shooting outrageous, heartless, and brazen.

I keep telling people that the hateful rhetoric and targeted violence mostly comes from ONE side of political divide. But some folks just don't wanna believe ... Meet the newest darling of the mass shooter spectrum. And who does he love? Trump of course. "America, America, the vile aim their guns at thee ..." https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1544084461276368896

Whenever a black person gets shot by law enforcement its because they dont comply. Police are trained to tell a suspect of any kind to show their hands, dont move, and to comply. You know why? So a suspect doesnt make any sudden/ suspicious movements that can be construed as putting a police officer at risk. Grabbing a cell phone can look like a gun. Grabbing something under a seat or the glove compartment when the police order you not to can get you shot ( black or white ). fleeing from the police in a vehicle can get you shot. Running from the cops and making a sudden turn towards the cops when the police order you to put up your hands can get you shot. Duante …

For one thing he actually signed up and joined the site. Perhaps Troy found that slightly commendable since most so-called conscious Black folks won't even make that commitment and would rather just drop a few posts as guest before dropping off the scene and not even bothering to stick around for the response! But another sad fact is........ Racist or not, there are so few of OUR OWN people who are willing to (or capable of) engage in intelligent discussions on boards like this that sometimes even dialog with a TROLL is welcomed...lol. It's an extreme analogy but, think of a person who has been in solitary confinement for years. There only contact is with …

And what would you guess his racial mix is?
