Hey @Delano are you aware of this Brother? @Pioneer1 before you say anything I already know Randolph does meet you criteria of being Black. I'm publishing a fictionalized account of his life:

I just read Cynique's lamenting I also watched the last few minutes of the Knicks win over his royal majesty Lebron James' Miami heat. Spike Lee was in the audience giving birth over the games -- sitting in a seat worth a mortgage payment. The Knick's game was close and kept the injury prone team from breaking their own record 13 straight playoff losses and a 0-7 season spanking by the Heat. But other than those observations the game really meant nothing for me. Sure there were some great shots and moves made, but the game could have been played by two completely different teams and I would have been just as unmoved. I did not care who won or lost -- the only …

In my mailbox today. I don't see how calling yourself a "New Afrikan" describes and describes you as a citizen of both the Republic of New Afrika and the United States of America. Anywho, here is the original email: --------------- The term African-American is disparaging if Black People use it to indicate they are citizens of the United States. Citizens of the United States are called Americans; a hyphen indicates you are not all the way there. Over the years people have used a lot of terms that did not properly represent who We are. African American is as much one of them as Afro-American, Negro and Colored. Recognizing yourself as a N…

Barack Hussein Obama might be considered a "synthetic" black American by some, but his wife, Michelle, is the real deal. Below are excerpts from an article about this subject written by Dawn Turner Trice, a black columnist for The Chicago Tribune. Many Americans are fascinated by the family history of Michelle Obama, a descendant of slaves who is the nation's first African-American first lady. Now, add to that a new book due out Tuesday, "American Tapestry: The Story of the Black, White, and Multiracial Ancestors of Michelle Obama." Dawn Turner Trice: I recently talked to author Rachel L. Swarns, 44, a Washington, D.C.-based reporter for the New York T…

Kam calls DuVernay's latest film a "...a cinematic masterpiece reminiscent of those rare treasures that have managed to capture an authentic slice of African-American life, ala such black classics as Love Jones (1997), The Best Man (1999), The Visit (2000) and Brown Sugar (2002)."

This came up on my feed a few hours ago...... Spain Loses All Power for 23 Hours | Watch Correct me if I'm wrong but this power outage in Spain and Portugal happened WEEKS ago. So why are they reporting this like it just happened today? As if it's breaking news? I've been noticing this lately. Events that happened days ago and even weeks ago are just repeated over and over again as if they're "breaking" news stories. Reporting major Earthquakes that happened weeks ago as if it just happened minutes ago. Talk about causing confusion...... The ceasefire between India and Pakistan was announced days ago. But this morning I'm read…

In a recent dialog with the good ProfD, we went back and forth over the differences in our "realities". I maintained that what he was speaking of wasn't a different reality but actually a different perspective of the SAME Reality. I had another disagreement with a brother at work over the same concept today which made me think of this again. Actually, it was ongoing because whenever we'd disagree over something he'd say that wasn't HIS "Reality" and then we'd start going back and forth over Realities....lol. If I said something he thought was outrageous or ridiculous, he'll usually say "Only in YOUR Reality"...lol. I'd constantly remind him that s…

The video below had the title, Monique says 'Girls Trip' was a low budget movie & Will Power Packer is a low budget producer. Since I just posted information about the success of Girls Trip. If was surprising to learn that these actresses will not earn what they deserve. "Make 'em famous, not rich." These are the earnings reported by Forbes Magazine for actress from June 2016 to June 2017. #10 - Amy Adams ($11.5 Million) #9 - Julia Roberts ($12 Million) #8 - Cate Blanchett ($12 Million) #7 - Charllize Theron ($14 Million) #6 - Emma Watson ($14 Million) #5 - Mila Kunis ($15.5 Million) #4 - Melissa McCarthy ($18 Million) #3 - Jenn…

Bro Troy stated: “But I will not blame the victims for the root cause of the problem, which stems from an economic system entrenched with white racism.” Really? And that’s the problem. Instead of holding people accountable for their personal poor decisions making and the consequences of those poor decisions –you will give them a free pass and blame their reckless self-destructive behavior on history and past grievances. Trust me –I am more than aware of the historical injustices and race based violence that black people in America labored under. But the uber dysfunction and hyper-violence that is pandemic with Negroes today has nothing to do with slavery, segregatio…

I can’t believe what I‘m hearing on the news! It’s not bad enough that whooping cough and head lice have resurfaced, now bed bugs have made a come back, their infestation reaching epidemic proportions. “Good night, sleep tight,” has taken on a whole new meaning. Yikes! Oh well, this is something to take my mind off Obama having to rely on the Republicans to get his bill for more billions to fund the war in Afghanistan after his fellow Democrats refused to support this folly. No wonder his hair is turning gray. Add to that the irritation caused by all the hoopla involved in keeping the details of Chelsea Clinton’s multi-million dollar wedding a secret, and my chagri…

NY Governor Under Fire: Calls For Paterson Meeting Updated: Thursday, 04 Mar 2010, 2:39 PM EST Published : Thursday, 04 Mar 2010, 6:23 AM EST MYFOXNY/AP - The Reverend Al Sharpton is hosting an emergency meeting with minority leaders in Harlem on Thursday night to discuss whether Governor David Paterson should resign. Pressure is mounting for Paterson to step down following several recent scandals. The NY Post reports Sharpton- who has been a supporter of the embattled governor- may be rethinking his position. A Democratic party adviser tells the Associated Press the meeting will take place at a restaurant. Paterson was accused Wednesday…

Remember when Oscar Grant was executed by that BART cop (Oakland) on New Year's Eve 2008-09? The cop served only 11 months in prison. Three months later, March 2009, Lovelle Mixon of Oakland killed four cops with an AK-47 (and shot another cop that survived). Fast forward 17 months to August 2010. Omar Thornton said (paraphrasing) in the 911 call, "this place is racist, so I handled the problem myself." He was referring to a beer company he did deliveries for. He pulled out two pistols and shot like eight white people at work. At least seven were killed if I remember right. He deliberately did not shoot any black people working there.

Apparently some crazy young "sista" tried to burn down Dr. Martin Luther King's childhood home down in Atlanta. MLK house vandalism: Woman tried pouring gasoline on childhood home (usatoday.com) I haven't looked much into the story yet but I'm telling people right now, I BET it's going to come out that she was influenced by some crazy shit she heard and read over the internet about MLK being a "communist" or working with the "illuminati". I'm willing to bet MONEY that this is what sent her over the edge. For a couple of years now I've gotten into it with other Black folks over the internet who sat up and listened to some of these ri…

Who remembers being told black folk don't read or if you want to hide information from black people, put it in a book? Lately, I found several articles that disprove those notions in addition to learning that the Pew Research Group stumbled upon the fact that college-educated black women read the most books. And it made me wonder about black women's reading habits. If you're an AA woman, please click on the link and take this 2-minute survey. When 100 respondents are recorded, everyone will be entered into a drawing for a $50 Target gift card. Thanks!! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FNGGNPB

Nowadays the economical crisis in European countries is the top and the highest discussed issue in mass media. Greece, Italy, Portugal… who is the next one? However, in such situation, the European elite is considering ability to give a chance to some different countries. The matter is about EU – Ukraine trade negotiations. For Ukraine it is new levels of trade, investment and growth and new kinds of economic freedom. So, what benefits will Europe receive? First of all it needs to draw attention that joining Free Trade Area is a part of the Association Agreement: the Association Agreement could be the first of its kind under the European Neighborhood Policy.

Hey @Pioneer1 I decided to ban Magnetic. There were a variety of red flags. I printed out and read one of the 3,000+ word posts. Despite the misleading subject line dealing with Cleveland transportation the post was laden with conspiracy theories including anti-Covid-19 vaccination, contrails, and illuminati stuff. Posting this however is not enough for me to ban someone. I randomly pulled a couple of sentences and found that they were copied verbatim from the Scientific American. This whole ideal of wrapping conspiracy theories with text from reputable sources points to a clear intent to deceive. The tactic however was so clumsy that I figured…

Has anyone noticed the virtual absence of light(er) complexioned black men and multi-cultural / multi-ethnic black men in media and entertainment? There seems to be no shortage of women on-air and on-screen who are in those categories, but men in those categories are almost non-existent, with the exception of journalism and news reporting. Looks like there's a lot of bias out there against the LSBM community from casting directors, advertisers, etc. They're still stuck in yesteryear and using old stereotypical depictions of black men in America, frequently relegating them to burger commercials and doofus roles - poor grammar, diction and all. Dark complexioned black m…

Lastly this. Here is scientific proof that supports unequivocally that we, the so-called black man and black woman in Amerikkka, are the folks in the Bible. So far, nothing has been able to refute DNA. It is universally accepted that DNA proof is ironclad. DNA markers are accurate when they pinpoint West Africa as the place of residence for most of us who are presently here in this country because it is true enough that we did emerge out of the West Coast of Africa, but that is not where we were from. Israel is our ancestral homeland. Luckily for us, a science called haplotype picks up where DNA leaves off. Accordingly, the E1b1A haplogroup is known to be most commo…

I'm curious as to what most people think of the last 15 minutes or so of Dr. Johnson's interview on The Breakfast Club last week and how him and Charlemagne were going at it hard with their different opinions on various topics. Take a look: I personally enjoyed the VERY spirited debate, however I can see how many would take exception to Charlemagne's constant passive-aggressive poking and prodding the doctor over issues they clearly disagreed on and I can definitely see how some could take exception to Dr. Umar raising his voice for an extended period of time, pointing his finger aggressively, and getting so emotionally stirred up.

I agree with a fellow FaceBooker when she asks "Does it strike you as odd that the disgraceful slaughter of a lion in Africa causes far more outrage in America than the daily lynchings of Americans of color?" Ironically, had this lion killed the hunter, excuses would've been made blaming the man for encroaching on the lion's turf, while explaining that this was just a case of a lion being a lion. Or is anybody ever outraged when lions kill each other, committing fur-on-fur crime. Too bad there's no such universal lamenting among human beings when a black person is murdered by a white cop - during the course of a racist just being a racist when he kills a black motorist…

Title: Who IZ the Boulé?: The History of America's First Black Fraternity and the Derailment Toward Afrikan Self-Reliance Written by M'Bwebe Ishangi January 2019 Paperback, 6 x 9 inches 282 pages ISBN: 978-0-578-21516-7 This book is a cumulation of over 20 years research that started with the question, "how far back does systemic global white supremacy go and more importantly, how have they been able to sustain it?" These two loaded questions sparked the origin of my journey that hit home when I zeroed in on “how” they sustained it. I learned to succeed, there had to be a vigilant effort to contro…

If you really think about it there was a time where people used the word brother and sister, now people address themselves as nig***, and address young black women as b's or thots(whore). i even see some young females address there own self as a bit**, it's ridiculous, is there anyone who feel the same as i do. because like i said there was once a time where we were Brothers and Sisters and kings and queens, and i'm not being judgmental but you actually seen women in dresses or pants or something where there not exposing themselves, or fighting and carrying on, and getting drunk and young men not calling females out there name, I'm not saying it's totally demolished but …

Battle lines have been drawn within certain enclaves of the black community, and conflict is swirling around 2 high-profile men, - a couple of guys who controversy seems to follow. Kanye West and LeBron James? Nope. The males in question, although the subject of different debates, have a certain thing in common. Who are they? What are their names? None other than - Barack Obama and Tyler Perry! The rueful President just recently admitted that he had taken a “shellacking” courtesy of the Republican mid-term election landslide. And, although film-maker Tyler hasn’t publicly acknowledged it, he is being raked over the coals by irate critics of his latest movie, “For C…

The problem of change of a climate, so called as a global warming, has already coated with a gamble, “sensational” publications and numerous myths. Thus, not everybody understands a true nature of new threats and even less society knows about mechanisms of their prevention and elimination. Let’s try to improve a situation, providing correct and a brief information on this issue. The Climate First of all, we will define with concepts. So, the climate is a long-term mode of weather in a certain territory.

Your twice-impeached heroic dude just growled that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "was always causing trouble." Yeah, well, that's what one does when they believe in Free and Fair Elections and of course, Democracy. They defend such things. Good thing you're not in charge, Trump. And it's becoming clear that more and more voters are finally beginning to recognize you're nothing but a liar and a fraud. So, you can go back to playing bad golf with your conscience-less pals and whispering to any Russian agent within earshot to send WNBA star to Siberia because "she's spoiled and makes a lot of money." By the way, Lord Dampnut, what do you think of Paul Whelan? …

This first time I saw this flag it was quite striking, blowing in the wind fully extended. It can be seen most easily on I-95 South near mile marker 134 or so, about 40 miles south of the Mason-Dixon Line. This Confederate Flag welcomes drivers on I-95 to the American South. The "flaggers" feel that our politically correct culture has falsely demonized this flag. That may be true. Today however the flag is not only a symbol of what was wrong with the South 150 years ago; it also symbolizes what is wrong with America today. I'm sure white supremacists are beaming with pride every time they see it.

There was a time when Frank Sinatra had the ladies swooning and Nat Cole elicited sighs, but back then there were those of us who also appreciated the vocalizing of chitlin-circuit singer best known for his rendition of a raunchy song entitled “I want a bow-legged woman”. Like his contemporaries Arthur Prysock, and Billy Eckstein, a guy named Bull Moose Jackson could also wrap his pipes around love ballads and make female hearts flutter. Yes, Ella’s fans considered her the best, and blond blue-eyed Doris Day was everybody’s favorite girl next door but, with her soaring range and luscious tone, Sarah Vaughn could hold her own.

Here's a few things to daydream over if you're enjoying a nice quiet Sunday afternoon....... If Malik Shabazz hadn't been assassinated in 1965 there would have been no Black Panther Party. The Black Panther Party was formed in 1966 because of the VOID left after his armed OAAU organization disintegrated following his death a year earlier. Had he lived, IT would have been the premiere armed Black organization and there probably wouldn't have been a need for the Panthers. If there had been no Black Panther party there would have been no Bloods and Crips. You had a lot of small neighborhood gangs around the nation but none as massive b…

Hello everyone, My name is Joan, I just registered on this site as I was reading the bible and wanted to view a map where Ephesus is located and came across aalbc.com. I am so pleased because I just want to learn and learn about my black history especially when I read the bible as I am a Born Again Believer in Jesus but always want to know of the black presence in the scriptures. For example reading about Troy's piece on Sorghatani - I was blown away as I have always suspected that Chinese, Hungarian, Romanian etc. are black but its never acknowledged as such. Any way please let me know how I can read more material on my black heritage. My parents were born in…

DA Fani Willis is being accused of having an improper relationship with lead prosecutor Nathan Wade: https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/12/politics/nathan-wade-fani-willis-da-georgia-election-subversion-case/index.html I know these two people didn't waste their time going to law school and getting degrees only to be dumb enough to have an affair and take trips at taxpayer expense. They wouldn't have done that and taken on a high profile care. 🤣 Hopefully, none of these allegations are true and this is just an attempt to affect the case against former POTUS.😎
