  1. Last I heard there were 39 million black people in America. The idea that there is a common black experience or an official approach to dealing with the word "nigger" and all its variations, is ludicrous. There are only 2 instances that I would consider invariably offensive to all of us and that is for a white person to call a black man "boy" or refer to a black group as "you people".

        Troy Are you asking because you have no clue? Did nothing I wrote in response to Cynique's post reveal anything to you? Indeed does my activities and behavior, as reflected on the website, over that last 20 years say nothing to you about my vision? Let me answer your question with a question. What do you think my vision is? Man, what's wrong with you. .....snapping at me. Did Del put a spell on YOU or something.....lol You haven't been the same since I got into it with him a few weeks ago....damn. Whatever he put on you, I might have to send for some medicine from Jamaica to get it off....lol. Anyway..... To be honest with you NO I hadn't read the response you gave to Cynque. I'm not in a habit of reading words intended for someone else. I do it from time to time as a reference but generally I don't have the time to go through every exchange that really isn't addressed to me. Infact, the only reason I read Del's post was because the word "vision" in it caught my attention and I like to think of myself as a visionary also. Your question. I mean....... It's obvious that you want to give authors a platform to display their works and after reading your post to Cynique your love of selling books helps me understand what you're trying to do even more. But I thought you maybe had an even GRANDER vision like setting up bookstores around the nation or establishing a major publishing institution. I'd like to see some brothers (and sisters) open up a CHAIN of book stores around the nation like Barnes and Noble but selling a greater variety of not just Black but "underground" books that have long been taken off the market by most White booksellers.

    Pioneer, the title of the conversation was random thoughts, so I guess anything goes. Are you asking because you have no clue?
