  1. Here I am, setting the record straight again, doing so, not because I think anybody cares, but rather because some may be curious as to why a 92-year- old-senior citizen wastes what little time she has left, hangin' out on an online discussion forum, engaging in verbal fisticuffs with a pioneer who has never blazed a trail anywhere except up his own butt. My answer: since the cyber space universe enables one to adopt an alter-ego, and take on a user name and lead a secret existence, quite a while ago I decided why not do this? What the heck. Might be fun. And it has been. In the real world, I am a widowed mother of 5, grandmother of 7, great grandmotherk of 8, family members of whom know very little about Nana's on-line activity; too wrapped up in their own pursuits. They just know she surfs the internet, amusing herself by engaging in various activities, and they remain clueless about the extent of my involvement on this forum since they don't come to this site. Nor do any of my associates. And, rest assured that my "Contrarian" persona is different from how I am in real life among polite company. However, because I can come here and hide behind an avatar, all bets are off and I can express myself anyway I please, Since I'm no longer a single young woman "out-to-catch", I feel no need to tread lightly and act sweet and feminine. I'm off the grid, and favorably impressing men is no longer a priority of mine. Who needs 'em? Welcome to Super Bitch land. Anyway, I say all this to say that, contrary to what some seem to think, I do not expect others to ward off my detractors or take my side. I can fend for myself. Now you know. What we don't know is how much longer I'll be around? Who cares. I don't. But until my time is up, Nana aka Contrarian will just keep poppin in and out, doin' her thing competing with others who jam the board with long self-indulgent posts full of useless information.

  2. For those who have rolled into 2026, let's hope that it is a year filled with Love, Joy, Peace, Prosperity, Health and Happiness. In the meantime, I will continue calling balls & strikes i.e. offering my opinions/perspectives on whatever comes up around here. I enjoy the easy chair I've taken up. As always, many thanks to brotha @Troy for providing & maintaining this platform. Much appreciated.

  3. This video popped up when I brought up YouTube today. On some level it feels like Google knows I was talking about this subject Neil describes 13 of things you should consider when evaluating information online. Some of this is common sense. @Pioneer1, for what it is worth, you should check out this video. Perhaps it will help you think about information you pull from the web and how you use it to form opinions.

  4. For anybody who is curious as to why I no longer use my original user name on this forum, why I, who was once known as "Cynique", am now known as "aka Contrarian", this is the explanation. I have been contributing to this discussion forum off and on for over 20 years. Back in the day, as a retiree who was an aspiring author, its "African American Literary Book Club" title drew me to this site. And having always considered myself to be somewhat of an "iconoclast", I decided I wanted my avatar to reflect my personality, so I came up with what was a combination of "cynical" and "unique". And the "Cynique" moniker was born, replete with a somewhat devil's advocate persona; always skeptical and a tad sarcastic, - (something which contributed to my ongoing feud with the notorious Kola Boof, a semi-famous drama queen). Otherwise, with a few innocuous exceptions, over the years, I formed several cherished friendships with people I encountered here and with whom I still keep in touch with on FaceBook. Anyway, with the passage of time, while others came and went, I remained a long standing member of AALBC, and Troy rewarded my loyalty by naming this site "Cynique's Corner". As more time passed, however, I eventually became burnt out and, contrary to the insinuations of some people, I voluntarily decided to go on hiatus, subsequently telling Troy he could drop the "Cynique's Corner title; which he did. With the passage of more time, I finally decided to check back in, but I couldn't log on because I'd forgotten my pass word. When I tried to log on with a new password word, I was unsuccessful, the reason given by the computer being that somebody already had that user name. The fact that the "somebody" was me made things more entangled, and after I contacted Troy, he assigned me a special password to use. That, along with adopting a different user name, enabled me to log back on to the discussion forum, at which time I explained that "aka Contrarian" was the poster formerly known as "Cynique". Obviously, the word "contrarian" preserves the cynical essence I originally wanted to convey. Only one person ever found this to be a problem. Whatever. As Shakespeare once said: "What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." It is what it is... And, don't be surprised if that "one person" chimes in with a stream of pictures along with references to flowers and bees and wasps and Cynique this and Dolemita that, yada,yada,yada. zzzzzzzzzzzzz

  6. "Matthew Lawrence had a second chance at love with Chilli. 'I wouldn’t have been ready for this type of relationship in my early 20s. No way,' Lawrence, 45, exclusively told Us Weekly while discussing his upcoming Hallmark+ reality series, Second Chance Love. Lawrence and Chilli, 54, will serve as cohosts and executive producers for the show, which was filmed on location in Sardinia, Italy. Second Chance Love sees five couples reunite for a rare second chance with the one that got away. Lawrence and Chilli (real name Rozonda Thomas) bring an authentic perspective to the show, as they found love with each other after previously experiencing heartbreak in past relationships." Matthew Lawrence Reflects on Finding Love With Chilli Later in Life | Us Weekly .....it's over. They could have Serena. They could have Halle Berry. But when they start snatching up Venus Williams and Chilli.....the game is obviously rigged. it's time for a RESET....lol. Come on @Chevdove! When is the next comet or asteroid scheduled to hit the planet? It's time for a NEW Earth and a NEW System

  7. I don't believe POTUS Oj would be able to serve another if he had a desire to do so. POTUS OJ may not be mumbling on his way out of the Oval Office but he will have a strong diaper subscription within 2-3 years. They might have to puree that McDonald's food he likes to eat as well.

  9. University of Michigan football coach got his black ass fired for having an inappropriate relationship with a staff member. Then the disgraced brotha was later arrested for assault after police were summoned to an apartment he'd gone to. I'm sure Sherrone Moore has a large penis. And his "victim" was probably white. Nothing surprising about this situation. Gee, he's almost as bad as - Barack and Hakeem.

  10. Good Afternoon, It's great to be in community with you. My name is Nicole Carr and I'm an Atlanta-based journalist, journalism professor and author of the forthcoming book The Price of Exclusion: The Pursuit of Healthcare in a Segregated Nation (HarperCollins June 2026). This is my first book, and it's taken me on a journey through the archives of our medical schools at home and abroad, as well as family history in Jamaica, the U.S., Canada and Europe. We released the cover on Black Friday, and I'd love for you to check out the description and cover below. If this sounds like a read you'd like, I'd appreciate your support with pre-orders and/or spreading the word. You can shop your favorite Black-owned and independent bookstores through the Bookshop link located here: The Price of Exclusion – HarperCollins Thank you for your consideration and support! Nicole Book Description: From award-winning journalist Nicole Carr comes a landmark narrative revealing the untold history of Black medical professionals who have long fought to heal their communities—while confronting a system built to exclude them. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Americans died at nearly twice the rate of their white counterparts—a disparity rooted not only in access to care but in a long history of exclusion, exploitation, and systemic racism. How did we get here, and why, despite generations of Black medical excellence, do these inequities persist? In The Price of Exclusion, journalist Nicole Carr uncovers that history and its urgent consequences, exposing the hidden toll of America’s refusal to value Black doctors and their patients. At the center is the extraordinary life of Carr’s great-grandfather, Dr. Lawrence St. Clair Ferguson, a Jamaican-born physician who served in World War I and attended medical school during the Spanish Flu pandemic. His journey from colonial Jamaica to a racially divided America provides both an intimate family portrait and a sweeping history of how Black physicians persevered despite segregation, erasure, and relentless barriers to practice. Through vivid storytelling and meticulous research, Carr resurrects the lives of pioneers who transformed medicine against impossible odds. From America’s first four-year medical school located at a historically Black college in North Carolina to the generations of Black physicians whose contributions were pushed aside by institutions of power, Carr shows how these figures were not only doctors but also advocates and innovators whose work reshaped public health and opened doors for those who followed. Carr also reveals the systemic campaigns that actively disempowered Black doctors, from the American Medical Association’s exclusionary policies to the devastating closures of Black medical schools after the Flexner Report. That legacy fuels today’s shortage of Black medical professionals and the lingering distrust in medicine that continues to cost lives. Bold, moving, and essential, The Price of Exclusion is both a necessary history and a testament to the resilience of Black medical pioneers past and present. At a moment when diversity, equity, and inclusion in medicine are under political attack, Carr forces us to reckon with the past while imagining a future where healthcare truly values every single life.

  12. I'm glad you decided to return to the forum. I always enjoy your contributions. Keeps this place alive. Brotha Delano, we have a limited amount of time and bandwidth and have to use it accordingly. So, I appreciate whatever you choose to contribute to the forum. IMO, AALBC is a discussion forum. A virtual coffeehouse where folks banter over various topics. Dialog does not have to be confrontational or persuasive or combat. Nor do we have to agree on everything or anything. Civility is a low bar and easy to maintain. Since I believe laughter is medicinal, I prefer a humorous approach. I can usually find something funny in the most serious subjects. Life is short. @aka Contrarian, that's why I enjoy your posts even as we agree to disagree. I see comedic source material as we go back & forth. Bring the funny. Regular participation on this forum is low but I appreciate each and everyone who chooses to pop in and chop it up.

  13. @ProfDI agree with you. For somebody who considers himself sooo in touch with the "Afro American" scene, Pioneer is frequently off the mark, lacking authenticity. Young black girls are not sittin around, pickin up on messages celebrities are supposedly sending them. They're more interested in hair and nails and eyelashes and fashion - attached to their phones, going on FaceBook threatening each other, working part time at WalMart. They are not suceptible to the idea of white boyfriends. They enthusiastically pursue their own kind. Many attend black colleges, where they will not be around whites guys. Or go to large white universities where they will not be competing with white Barbies for white Kens. It's not until they are full grown adults and have careers and are on the dating merry-go-round that black females make up their own minds and begin to consider other options when it comes to a mate. Plus, the vast majority of them are not going to be superstars in sports or entertainment where they can pick or choose. In fact, as Troy has reminded, most people, including black ones, marry within their own "race" The only explanation for Pioneer's preoccupation with white men is that he's jealous of them, undoubtedly afraid that there's a chance their penises might be quite adequate.

  16. According to the bible, Samson's strength was in his abundant black hair. When Delilah cut it off, he was left weak. How can this be interpreted? What ethnic group can claim strong hair? And women who tame it????? Shame on you, Troy. This clearly applies to black men and the sistas who do braids, all of which is symbolic of black women emasculating black men. Get it? If that sounds ridiculous , - it's because it is. zzzzzzz

  18. @Pioneer1How stupid can YOU get? I used the pronoun "you" because I'm directly addressing YOU, while fanning away the brain farts you try to pass off as valid ideas. Like now, in desperation, YOU continue to grasp at straws, unable to stop dreaming that I - care for you. ugh. Soooo, let me make myself perfectly clear, once and for all. I do not like YOU. To know you, is to despise you, which I do. Deflating and disagreeing with all the puke you are so full of, gratifies me, while totally confirming your personality disorders. I'm sure you will reject all this and continue to harbor the idea that, - with cool guys like Troy and ProfD and Delano and Frankster around, this old lady would dote on a dufus clown like YOU. Puleeze. And you will, as usual, seize upon the idea that for someone who doesn't like YOU. I certainly spend a lot of time trying to prove otherwise. blah, blah, blah. (Nope. That's not the case. So shelve that belief.) You epitomize everything that I find obnoxious and it takes a lot of effort for this to penetrate your dense ego. OK, now one more time for the folks he is so eager to impress: I dislike Pioneer. I consider him a repulsive, attention-seeking, LYING, jive-assed nigga. I detest him, and couldn't care less if the feeling is mutual.

  20. I have always found it amusing that Black folks tried to hold Black rappers to a higher moral standard especially when it came to their lyrics. The same Black folks would watch white produced movies filled with violence and nudity. A white man kill up a bunch of folks and f8ck several women...no problem. Blockbuster at the box office. Blacks folks in theaters grinning and eating popcorn while contributing to the profits of those same movies. OTOH, let n8gglets gang-bang and be misogynistic on wax and self-righteous Black folks were ready to call the FBI. Somehow, rap music was destroying the Black community. Nevermind the fact that pimps, prostitutes and dope dealers, gang-bangers and murderers were around before rap music. Also, the same self-righteous Black folks weren't complaining about blaxploitation movies and Richard Pryor, Millie Jackson and Blowfly records. C. Delores Tucker was probably smoking Virginia Slim cigarettes and sipping on a Singapore Sling while watching those same movies or listening to those *dirty* records too. As brotha Malcolm X said..."who taught you to hate yourselves". Young cats like Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole are very intelligent and know how to interview. Again, it's easy for older generation to cast aspersions on the generation behind them. The reality is that there is nothing new under the sun. Same sh8t (game), different players. @Troy nails it in that regard. Just like blaxploitation movies, some pimps had high-pitched voices and permed hair (jheri curls in the 1980s) too.

  25. A few groups of people might feel differently: 1) Black folks who don't own or control anything 2) Deportees who are mostly non-white 3) Cities under National Guard watch 4) DEI hired and fired The authors of Project 2025 know that white folks are on track to becoming the majority-minority in the US. Majority-minority meaning white folks will still be single largest race of people in the country but out-numbered by the total population of non-white folks. That statistic is bothersome to white folks but not a whole problem with the population numbers as long as they still own and control everything to include the levers of power. The other thing is having control of the military and aspects of it. If white folks ever feel threatened by other groups of people, they can easily put down anything they fear. First, white folks in America have more guns as private citizens than all countries on the planet combined. The white American citizenry is more heavily armed than militaries of other countries. Also, I believe that is their main reason for playing games with the National Guard in these cities. The exercise is to see how quickly they can mobilize and have boots in the ground in a city if something pops off. IMO, racism is not on the decline in America. It is shape-shifting to seem less obvious. The objective of the white patriarchy is to take America back to a time before the 1960s but remixed like a song.

  35. I recently caught the movie "All Eyez on Me", the biopic of Tupac, on TV. I don't remember this movie getting a lot of hype when it first came out, but I was impressed with it. It was well produced, well scripted, and well acted. The actors who played Tupac and Shug Knight were not only excellent in their portrayals but their resemblance to Pac and Shug was amazing. Same for the minor characters playing real life people like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog. I'm assuming the production company who released this film was black because of the authenticity of it. Anyway, I plan to watch it again because it's running all month long on my TV subscription.

  37. @aka Contrarian I completely missed your desire to have someone comment on your observations, at least it wasn’t clear to me until your last post. The difference between this forum and social media platforms like TikTok are profound. Sure in some cases, the content might be just as trivial, silly, incorrect, deep sublime, witty as anything that you’ll find on social media one main difference you consistently ignore, however, is that a tremendous amount of time, energy and money goes into deliberately hacking into the brain of the users of the systems and they have been very effective. There are no Scientist here trying to keep you engaged on this platform 24/7 We don’t even have ads here anymore. You ignore all the evidence which speaks to the adverse impact of this on our society. But it’s fine not everyone is going to get it or if they get it accept it. It is much like pioneer refusal to accept, there’s no scientific basis for race or getting Harry realize not all ministers are money grubbing womanizers.

Yet, you, yourselves, are perfectly fine with, and seemingly entertained by the stream of trash featuring vulgar caricatures of black people in what the perverted Pioneer tries to pass off as a movie;a low brow piece of shit which belongs more on a social media site like TIK TOK rather than on a discussion forum, clogging it up with gutter sewage.

  43. Understood. Enjoy those African women as long as any cultural differences do not present hurdles. Many African women use a ton of make-up and foundation to lighten themselves to appear less dark and look more European. Too many Black folks have been conditioned to h8te themselves.

  44. in the first photo, she’s wearing a dress and looking like Trinity from the matrix. In the second photo, she’s wearing stilettos, earrings, long painted fingernails, a necklace, tattoos, are butterflies and another feminine imagery. I don’t see all the muscles pioneers talking about she’s a petite and an excellent physical condition. She looks more like a woman than a man to me. I did not know she was lesbian until AKA mentioned it just now. Maybe that is why GQ put her in that “man issue” I don’t think that’s a particularly good look, but I don’t care about the magazine. I think positioning Cynthia that way was more of an effort to attract attention. (It worked on Pioneer) than a diabolical plan by the mysterious “They” to masculinize Black women. Even if it was a plan, it’s failing miserably as there are plenty of female, presenting, cis-gender, man loving, black women out there. This is an example of making a mountain out of a molehill a social media, fueled frenzy in increasing white-boy wealth.

  45. From the tenor of your posts, I think you have a soft spot for Black immigrants...Africans and maybe West Indians too. Just know that you aren't schooling or getting them hip to anything. As ingrained from their culture...they have little or no respect for FBA/AfroAmericans. it's rather insulting for them to judge you for cussing, cursing or vulgarity. Whatever chooses to come out of your mouth is an inalienable birth-right. Don't let the lure of that African snatch box gaffle you up. Stay FBA/AfroAmerican...Black man.

  49. I undwerstood. I was just emphasizing the bible for most of its existence couldn't be read due to illiteracy. The printing press was invented until 1,500 years after Jesus the Christ's death. Basically, reading the Good Book is not a requirement for being a Christian. So I wouldn't beat them up on that point.

  50. @Pioneer1 so I gather you do not consider yourself a biblical scholar. I provided bullet points on how I arrived at my conclusion. Reading your original passages and researching them took all of five minutes. You could have done that, indeed you should’ve done that before you posted the passage. The only reason I took the time to research, the meaning of the passage was that it was provocative. I wasn’t aware that there was any language like that in the Bible so I was curious to learn what it meant I won’t bother doing it for you because I already know there is nothing that I can say that will get you to think differently about what you posted. From your perspective, the Bible has provided proof that Black people have the biggest dicks.
