Culture, Race & Economy

This board's purpose is to facilitate the exchange of opinions, ideas, facts, and information as it relates to Black people.

  1. Someone forwarded this to me today on Facebook with the instructions to "forward this every Black person you know." I have to admit I was a little excited because i thought now, finally, some Black leaders are getting together to take substantive action against the NFL since Colin Kaepernick has been neutralized. I dug a bit deeper into this effort and see that he video was created LAST YEAR! My hopes were dashed because obviously this effort had less than zero impact. Why didn't this effort go viral on the Web? The video has been posted several times on youtube. The one with the most views (that I could find) is shared below. It got less than…

    "What black folks need to do" is a mantra that has been chanted so long and so often, that you'd think by now the definitive solution would've transcended the droning and come into fruition. Doing what other ethnicities are doing is one thing some blacks think will be a magical solution. Let them tell it, Whites and Asians and Hispanics all do the right things. And they are rewarded for this by being above blacks on society's totem pole. Really? To me, the obvious answer to what black folks need to do, is overshadowed by a fixation on time-worn ideas which encompass the same ol imperatives. Black folks need to unite and be of one mind, they should diligen…

She was also trolled with an email similar to the ones I receive all the time. When an entity hacks into say Target's servers and steals passwords this is a VERY big deal. Many of us use the same passwords on multiple systems. So if your password is stolen from Target they may now also have your bank account's password. This data is freely available to the dark web and sophisticated scammers know how to exploit people beyond simple identity thief. I've included an example of a scam email below. Now I would NEVE…

  7. Obviously this thread is open to discussion from everyone..... Cynique said something in another thread that I've been meaning to question her on for weeks but when I log on I tend to get so involved in other topics that I forget to ask. She said: "All my female friends tended to be like me. Our tough bitchy facades were almost a litmus test. If a guy could hold his own with us, we'd let down our guards and be nice and sweet. Unfortunately, i think more flunked the test than passed it. We were in the vanguard of ball-bustin' black sistas.

    What's compelling about Internet Forums is what every contributor has in common. Although most preface their statements with an obligatory "IMO", let's face it, nobody enters a discussion with the idea that what they post is wrong . And when everybody feels this way, the stage is set for dissent. Who really believes that those who contradict you, know what they're talking about? No one thinks what their adversary calls facts, are that reliable. Everyone secretly places great significance on their anecdotal evidence. Meanwhile, coming up with a rebuttal takes priority over giving close attention to what is being claimed by your opponent. Plus, how people react or overre…

    I returned from a trip to SEA last year and I noticed a quite a few differences to where I come from (Vic, Australia). I spent a lot of time in bustling markets and walking around a couple of big cities during my stay overseas, and I actually had a great time there. People were always trying to sell me cheap food, drinks and cloths, everything was well priced and Asian people were always willing to help me. They often asked for a few baht to help them out for their trouble, but that is only a few aussie dollars anyway, so no problem. The sun was always out, it was always warm even in the winter and there was always something to do. There were many bars where the food and …

  28. It’s been approximately two years since Colin Kaepernick decided not to stand for the national anthem to bring awareness and to protest against police brutality. His peaceful protest has garnered support and criticism from people of all races and political affiliations around the world and it has definitely shined the light on the issue of race here in America. In an effort to keep NFL protesters from following in Colin’s footsteps, the NFL recently implemented a new policy that condemns players from protesting from the sidelines during the national anthem. The league will issue a fine to any player who they judge is “disrespecting” the flag by not stand…

So now, I hope to share it and by doing so, it may help me to get some peace. I am trying to get to a point that I can publish my findings but it is so challenging.
