I don't feel it. However I am not a Beyoncé fan.

@Troy LOL. I know.

CORRECTION Johnson Publishing sold ONLY EBONY and Jet Magazines. They retained Fashion Fair, the cosmetics division and photo archives. AJC 's Ernie Suggs reports, they tried to sell the archives for an estimated $40 million but were unsuccessful. The Wall Street Journal is reporting (April 24, 2019) that billionaire couple Mellody Hobson and George Lucas are seeking control of the EBONY JET Archives. The Photo Archives are at risk due to the bankruptcy filing.

Yeah I guess I dont really know how i would act if I were scared and the person did not want to go to the hospital and the person is adamant about not going.

I'm not suprised. I've said this before, but the intellect of AfroAmerica has been dissolving since the 80s. Media and periodicals are an intellectual pursuit and takes a certain level of intelligence and academic discipline to operate them successfully. The simple fact is many of those in these past few generations don't have the smarts or discipline to even MAINTAIN what their parents and grand parents started....let alone build on top of it and expand it. The REASONS for this intellectual decline vary but I would say the main causes include the steady dismantling of the public educational systems in most urban areas since the 80s designed to purposely "dumb down" the population, and the poor dietary habits of most AfroAmericans since the 70s which negatively affects the proper development of the brain. Oh...and I can't leave out the powerful impact that hard core drugs like heroin and cocaine (in all of it's various forms) has had on the mental development of Black youth.
