One of the TV stations shows him being a Black Panther when he younger. What is interesting is his 'relationship' over race that has been formed between him and Katangi Jackson in light of recent Supreme Court decision on Havard affirmative action case. Three pages below from the decision at https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/22pdf/20-1199_hgdj.pdf Jackson's dissent is a must read. Two Blacks, married to White spouses, one claims race matters, the other says no. This 'mental silliness' got us onto slave ships for 300 years. We are our own worst enemies.

@Pioneer1 I have no beef or grudge with you. I am no longer in the debating phase. I can't speak for Cynique or anyone else. I think abstractly and in concepts you think more concretely and in the practical. Disagreement is not the same as dislike at least it isn't for me. Your question shows self reflection. It is a question based on your experiences but the answer is not in your experience. Or rather the method of answering the question or finding a solution involves thinking in a way that is different. The first question is that your thinking is a product of you experiences and your internal states and personality. There isn't another person that is like you on the planet. This is true for everyone. The second question is is no longer a question if my response to your first question is true. The answer is in the question. You have already decided your answer is clear cut and dry. Most people believe they are right. In my experience people don't generally think they are wrong. You style is discussion is a bit combative. So you have already decided before the discussion that you are right. Then you aren't really having a discussion. Perhaps people may need to think they are right. Otherwise life could be overwhelming. It is better to have a false sense of security that a real existential dread of the future. Let me know if any of that isn't clear You have asked the most important question a person can ask themselves. Since it leads to a more objective sense of your self.

You almost NEVER see that negro smiling. In almost every picture of him, you see him with a frown or scowl or look of disappointment on his face. Not surprisingly..... I was skimming through a documentary on Youtube that said he used to be down with the Panthers and other Black power movements back when he was in college. A lot of Uncle Toms and Conservatives used to be Liberal and even down with the Black Power when they were young.

Tools and rituals are a way of focusing the mind body and spirit. I also believe it you are devoted to an activity it will reveal its secrets.

Are you FROM Nature? Are you IN Nature? Are you a Part of Nature? Can you answer no to any of the Above?...if so please explain. I am From My Mother and a Part of her as I was once INside her. I am Still apart of Her as everything I am is made from her Flesh(exclude sperm material) As I am No longer In Her...I am Apart from Her Not so with Nature....Me and my Mother are From(made of) Nature and remain a Part of Nature(Inside Nature) The ones you refer to as New Age. Then I must ask you to show where did I say "time did not exist" please keep it in context... I have maintain that time is a mental construct of this our shared reality....I have have shown where African philosophy has agreed All else is a misunderstanding on your part. Which are New and which ones are Not African?

Uncle Clarence Thomas is self-serving and the most self-hating Black man on planet. He's suffering in that Black skin. Conservatives selected Uncle Clarence to the SCOTUS for the very same reasons. White folks knew he would be a useful tool and food. No need to worry him championing a d8mn thing Black folk-related. As I mentioned in another thread, the only reason Uncle Clarence wears that black robe is because it's standard issue for the SCOTUS. Otherwise, he would be wearing a white like an altar boy. If a picture is worth a thousand words: There is nothing about this Black man that reflects happiness. But, he is a safe bet for white folks.😎
