Lol! @Pioneer1 you've never hesitated to ascribe racial designations to any other human. Is the person pictured Black?

I sometimes think back to the old MUHAMMAD SPEAKS newspaper from back in the days. At the back they had this cartoon/drawing about how we would start to imitate whites if we got too close to them. This was during the early 70s when sistas first started to dress provocatively in public following the mini-skirt craze.

Ann No society built on FALSEHOOD can last. It eventually MUST collapse under the weight of it's own wickedness. Western civilization was built upon LIES and DECEPTION.....and so it must collapse. But that doesn't mean that WE as AfroAmericans have to collapse with it. This is an opportunity for US to rise and build our own society. But our society must be built upon the principles of TRUTH and RIGHTEOUSNESS and not just a copy of the old Satanic (White Supremacist) world.

Hey, I'm with you. I'm impatient too. There are many areas we need to work on. I see these discussions as a tiny part of that work. I also think the worst thing we could do is mimic what has been successful in people we do not admire. As a kid, I decided I don't want to get financial security using methods proven successful time and time again by people in my community I did not respect. I also don't want my people to seek social domination using tactics I consider wicked. Of course, I don't think anything you wrote suggests we mimic them. I would like to think as we progress, we are looking for a new or different way. Not just a role reversal.
