From time to time I review the queries that drive traffic to the website. Once such query is for the term "PAWG." I was unfamiliar with the term and searched for it until I found my my site (an earlier version of Thumper's Corner) where I found this conversation: Black men do you ignore PAWGS? Cynique, I'd actually forgotten how wild y'all used to get I miss those days...before the corporate take over of the net. Can you image a conversation like that on, say, Facebook today? Assuming you got past the sensors and the prudes, it is still technically impossible because of the restrictions on what people are permitted to do social media. There is so much le…

Troy's Note: The Nubian network was one of the first substantial, in terms of content, Black websites that I was aware of. I'm talking 20 years ago. They were so different than anything that I had encountered anywhere, that they made an impression. They once used the tag line, "The Uncut Black Experience." Today you still won't find them on Facebook or Twitter.

pic of true Hebrews after h Pic of the Hebrews after ttey were taken in captivity by the Assyrians This was 3000 years ago and was etched into a wall. Winners always depicted their victories over enemies. And this was big and the King wanted to make sure that everyone knew that he had conquered the Hebrews. Why Not? These were God's People and they had just beaten them in war. That would gave them a big rep as being the ones who conquered the Hebrews. One thing fgor sure is that your enemies know what you look like and if thery are going to put youy on blast before the whole world, they gonna make sure they get your image right! the middle pic is an ad sho…

Who would ever think that people in Lake Tahoe and California would be devastated by the raging fires that seem to be unstoppable? It is reported that at least 15,000 fire fighters are working day and night to extinguish the deadly Caldor fire. There is no question that these brave fire fighters must have gas mask to protect themselves from smoke inhalation. But how many people know including these fire fighters that a Black inventor invented the gas mask which operates according to the same principles as the gas mask use today. This inventor's name is Garrett Morgan. He invented the gas mask during his day it was known as a smoke helmet to fight fires. The purpose of t…

https://apnews.com/article/college-football-sports-entertainment-business-arts-and-entertainment-110d82684a8599f35deb0dd8529d6acb Former 1970s star football player OJ Simpson has been paroled two months early. The Juice is on the loose as a free man. As a 74 year old, I doubt OJ can still run fast. He probably doesn't want any more drama. So, I hope he will be allowed to live the remainder of his life free of hassle. It would be something if OJ and Bill Cosby teamed up to do a comedic buddy movie. 😁😎

In today's super woke - hyper cancel culture - post-George Floyd era, blacks have suddenly and disproportionately been cast / inserted into nearly every facet of big and small screen entertainment, advertising, marketing and the like.

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:

Every blue eyed person on the planet is a descendant of one single person Story by Kate Plummer • Yesterday 3:41 AM Blue eyed people, listen up. Ever wondered why your eyes are the colour they are? Well wonder no more. Every blue eyed person is descended from a single European who lived around 6,000 to 10,000 years ago, according to scientists. How did they work it out? Originally, all humans had brown eyes in various shades until there was a specific mutation that made the change. The mutation is a gene called HERC2 and it switches off OCA2, the gene that determine…

I heard about White Robes and Broken Badges: Infiltrating the KKK and Exposing the Evil Among Us on the radio this morning where the author Joe Moore was being interviewed. Joe infiltrated the KKK and thwarted an assignation attempt on then, Democratic presidential candidate, Barack Obama. The most striking think to me was Joe describing the KKK members who are part of the police force and using their positions to help the KKK!

POTUS OJ has used Title X federal authority to bring in the National Guard to calm down the protests in LA. The Secretary of Defense has threatened to send in marines from the base in nearby Camp Pendleton. Of course, the governor of California doesn't appreciate his authority being overriden. LA mayor Karen Bass hasn't said much. This situation provides a glimpse into how this administration of the federal government will handle any uprisings under …

Sandra Bland is the latest casualty in the war between black motorists and white cops. Not surprising, a highway in Texas was the battle ground for a confrontation between a pesky black woman who bugged a white patrol officer, a face-off that eventually led to the arrested woman being found hanged in her jail cell under suspicious circumstance. The sad, stark lesson to be learned from this incident is that you have to humor cops, Carrying a gun does not sufficiently stroke their egos. They need submissiveness to reinforce their need for control. When you thwart their aggressiveness, you disarm them. In this battle of mind games, you triumph. The prize is your survival. J…

.....sincere questions Why do you habitually refer to members of the African/Black race with the archaic term "Negro"? I notice you don't refer to Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans collectively by THEIR archaic term "oriental" . Is Spanish your first language or something?

Why do we defend our convictions. When We haven't tested them, in addition some assumptions are not possible to verify.

...why Black celebritie's skin tones are often recorded much lighter than they really are.

I've noticed these discussions seem to get stuck on etymology, connotation, and or denotation of words that we use. I find it fascinating that our conversations continue to take this turn especially on this is literary website. Maybe there's a message in our musings. I'm not sure what is but like earth wind and fire sings: "Watch for the signs That lead in the right direction Not to heed them is a bad reflection They'll show you the way Into what you have been seeking To ignore them you're only cheating..."

Interested in hearing who is Black or what does it mean to say someone isn't Black.

How did you determine they were smarter than you, and how did you feel?

After decades and decades of experiencing and observing this society, I've come to the conclusion that AfroAmericans have 2 major problems that we MUST overcome and try to solve: 1. White Supremacy 2. Black stupidity I focus a lot of my time talking about White Supremacy, but not AS much discussing Black stupidity. First, what IS "stupidity"? Being stupid is more than just lacking education or knowledge. That's simply being IGNORANT and it can be corrected by being provided with proper information if your intelligence is NORMAL. Stupidity is LOW INTELLIGENCE.....meaning you have a low ABILITY TO EVEN LEARN. Even when information is presented to you,…

What the general public is unaware of and needs to come to terms with is that there is no room for information which cannot be proven in the world of historical research. History is a science. And for those who conduct historical research seriously and treat it as a science, gather historical documents, news articles, journals, court cases, diaries, letters, and reference sources all of which their conclusions are based. It is this method which I used for determining the character of Christopher Columbus and charging him with crimes against the Indian people of the West Indies. This article is the product of records which will clearly point out, that from the very beginni…

can you believe this totally rewrite of history? It’s scary.

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.

I have to raise a Black Power fist to @Lee Vining for hipping me to ex-enslaved Black folks who left the South to settle in Colorado and formed entire communities! I had no idea of this! I knew we left the Soutn and went west to places like California, Texas and Arizona but cold ass Colorado? Man...I come to find out Black folks ran up into them mountains and TORE THEM UP looking for gold. This is one of the reasons I call myself the "Pioneer". Because I look at those early Black Pioneers who decided to get the hell out of the old corrupt system, travel to a NEW land, and establish their OWN communities as my role models! This is so inspiring …

Conversations with ProfD and frankster have made me think about the times in my life when I've took leaps of faith and the rewards I've gotten were much greater than I even asked for or even imagined. Even at what I considered "low" points in my life, this has happened. I remember when I was homeless and living in a shelter. They only gave us coffee in the mornings and pushed us out of the door by 7am. It reached a breaking point when one young man who was a diabetic who went into sugar shock one morning because he couldn't get any carbohydrates to balance his chemistry. We said they need to give us some donuts or toast or something....not just coffee and …

Looks like Robert Kennedy Jr. being appointed as Health Secretary is ALREADY having an impact in the nation and opening up discussions on subject that were once considered not even up FOR discussion. Look at the article I just saw on mainstream NBC New's website: Fluoride in drinking water once again scrutinized for possible effect on kids' IQ I remember not too long ago most so-called professionals weren't even willing to DISCUSS whether or not we should be putting flouride in our drinking water. Any talk of the damage it may be doing to the brains of those who ingest it was regulated to "conspiracy theorist" talk and readily dismissed. Oh but now..…

One of the things I like about running this site is the stuff I learn. Someone ordered the book Negro with Guns yesterday; I was not really familiar with the book nor was I familiar with Robert F. Williams, the author of the book. Negro with Guns is considered "the most important intellectual influence on the Black Pather Party." He also helped found Radio Free Dixie which was broadcast out of Cuba, where he lived in exile for e time, and could be heard all over the south, NY and LA. During the Vietnam War it was it was rebroadcast in Vietnam. Now I appreciate Williams was probably popular in his day, but I'm disappointed I was not familiar with…

President Obama just recently returned to Chicago to attend the 50th birthday party that doubled as a fund raiser. 3 million dollars was the take and it will go toward a re-election campaign with the goal of giving him another 4 years to extricate himself from the failure that came with the territory he inherited. In other words he's becoming preoccupied with winning another 4 years to chase his tail. The claim is constantly being made that racism is what is thwarting Obama's effectiveness as President. I most certainly agree. Which is why he shouldn't run for a second term. It'll just be more of the same. If he truly cares about change, he should take on a differen…

Technology and Falling Literacy Rates Are Writing an End to Black-Owned Bookstores by Frederick H. Lowe The number of African-American-owned bookstores has dropped significantly since the late 1970s and 1980s due to a variety of factors, including corporate control of the Internet, waning literacy and fiscal mismanagement. In the 1970s and 1980s, more than 1,000 black-owned bookstores were in business in the United States. Now only slightly more than 100, possibly 116 to 117, if that many, remain open, according to Troy Johnson, founder of the African American Literature Book Club (AALBC.com), which is based in New York. Read the whole article I'm gla…
