  1. Well, I hope that she is taking a leave of absence and will be back to catch you in your genderism issues. WHAT about @Mel Hopkins? You don't think that you are being disrespectful to the sistas that chose to mate with a non-Black man? Why would you need to distance yourself, @Pioneer1? Why should a sista or a Brotha have to explain to you that their significant other is 'NOT-WHITE'? What does that have to do with them being Black? The culture is the issue, here. If an AfroAmerican is intact with their identity, then that should not take away from their choice in a mate. America has done a lot of damage due to its racist agenda, but your understanding here, is flawed, imo.
  2. 🙋🏽‍♀️ Here! Hi lovely! Nope! I have no patience for gender issues. I’ve grown tired of some men trying to dictate a woman’s partnership choices. It’s a waste of time. If those men were so concerned. They would simply show up be present and stay put. Anything less, is lip-service, bitchin’ and moanin’.
  3. I honestly do not know what happened to Shanquella. But her friends must either have direct knowledge or pertinent information. I do not want to speculate. But @Chevdoveis right. Her "friends" need to interviewed by hard nosed detectives.
  4. @Pioneer1 Blacks will never be able to unite unless we get our thinking straight. You demand Blacks need to leave California because Latinos have the numbers in Southern California. Which eliminates any chance of Blacks having a major voice in U.S. presidential elections for the future. If you are not a resident of California, then you cannot vote there. Which lessens the chance of Democrats winning the state's electoral votes. That is not a strategy. That is surrender. And all because you are still pissed off about a citation you received for jaywalking years ago. You also claimed that Haiti needs to return to pre-Christian traditional African beliefs. On what basis? Because YOU think so? The only way to quell the horrible gang violence in Haiti is a military intervention and the country in the best position to accomplish this is the United States. Calling on spurious spirits will not help at all. It sounds as if you don't know a lot about Haiti's 20th Century history or even what led to it which is the Monroe Doctrine and chicanery and skullduggery by vile U.S. politicians and their Black turncoat lackeys. I also recall you demanding a group of Blacks take revenge on the Buffalo, N.Y., Tops Supermarket shooter by traveling there and killing him. The only problem was the dude was already in custody and just as I predicted, is not going to see the light of freedom for the rest of his natural life. At times, you pop off with weird shit that is always based on your ego.
  5. I am amazed that reparations were paid to slave owners, to compensate them for their loss of income.
  6. You're absolutely correct. Sanders didn't want to work his way up the coaching ranks under white folks at a PWI (Predominantly White Institution). Instead, it was Prime's objective to build his coaching resume by using his fame and celebrity to lure 5 star recruits to Jackson State University. He used AfroAmerican athletes to show white folks that he could recruit athletes and build a winning program. If it was not all about him, Deion Prime Sanders could have single-handedly lifted HBCU athletics and admissions. Funding would have flooded HBCUs. A modern day example of an AfroAmerican selling out the community for personal gain. That white ice always seems to be colder.😎
  7. I've seen movies #1 and #2. They are both excellent. I can live with that order or make the case to flip them. Nonetheless, I think sista Viola Davis deserves to be nominated for and win an Academy award for her performance in "The Woman King".😎
  8. Divide and conquer still works. I think quite a few people are complex and some are complicated.
  9. Well, @ProfD, you were right about Brittany Griner being swapped[!], and on that note, I sure hope you are right on this one too. Yes, I agree, but I did read recently a comment from @Stefan and he said that women should also be accountable too and that is what I also believe. There does need to be a strong coalition of AfroAmerican men but Black women need to step up too. I tried to ignore this too, @Troy but now, after I realize the great effort of others who kept putting out on social media, I am glad I paused to look at it. This is so awful, but had it not been for the media attention, I don't think this would have surfaced so soon.
  10. Actually, racists have access to the same information as the government because they either work for it and/or through back channels. H8ll, it's not that hard for the Chinese to get our information. 🤣 AfroAmericans will always be compromised as long as our position on the chessboard is weak. We have to be willing to fight and die for real freedom. Until AfroAmericans move beyond passivity and believing spirituality will solve our problems, we are sitting ducks in this dispensation. 😎
  11. That is the dilemma for Black folks all over the planet. As long as a few people are willing to be sellouts, it's easier to oppress the masses. The system of racism white supremacy is built on it. 😎
