Yeah, that will be a problem. Hill Harper's celebrity is an advantage, given the superficial nature of our culture. He does seem to be genuinely interested in helping Black people. I've seen Hill a few times over the years mostly in connection with his popular books. The last time I saw him in Tulsa with Killer Mike pushing some Black bitcoin platform. I wonder what happened to it after bitcoin price dropped...

Men and Women different? Of course they are! Men are from MARS and women are from VENUS. Remember? On the other hand, when it comes to same sex relationships, take the "variations on a theme" in your stride. Like everything else, nature undergoes a trial and error process. Nothing will evolve that prevents the species from replicating itself. Then, there's the conspiracy theory about the feminization of black men, and the one about weaponizing them to eliminate each other via black-on-black crime. These plots cancel each other out, and would be more trouble than it's worth for the White Supremecists. imo. Stop worrying about the perennial problems that plague the human race in general, and the black one, in particular. Just live your best lives. Artificial Intelligence and the Climate will soon diminish Life as we know it - for everybody. 😜 And so it goes...

Hill Harper admits that he's not a politician. Hus campaign is grassroots and funded by donations through his website. No superPACs. I think Hill Harper would really try to help the state of Michigan. Hopefully, he wouln't get corrupted by DC.😎

As I mentioned in another thread, most wealth is in the cloud. A paranoid billionaire couldn't have a Brinks truck pull up and drop all of their money in the front yard.🤣 It's conceivable that the US treasury could produce large denomination bank notes for such individuals. Otherwise, as long as Oprah cannot touch or cash in her wealth, she's a mouse click away from losing it all especially if she p8sses off white folks. Remember how Kanye's fortune dropped like the Dow Jones over that claim of antisemitism. Death Row Records was worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Someone bought it for pennies on the dollar when it was sold at auction. Oprah's business assets are worth a few billion dollars as long as she's cooperative and white folks are in agreement. My house is only worth a half million dollars as long as someone is wiling to pay that much for it.😁😎

Nobody is “self-made.” The successful may be smart and hardworking, but no one accomplishes anything, in a modern society single handedly-- unless you drop completely off the grid and are living in the wilderness, surviving on your own. Even then someone reared you long enough for you to live on you own. Seems to me after you've generated a billion dollars in wealth, you can pretty much do whatever you want. Biting the hand that feeds her... how much money does one need? It is not like she has kids to take care of... I dunno. I think homegirl is doing exactly want she wants. If she never generated another penny, she should could live 100 comfortable lifetimes on what she already has. I don't see her negatively vis-a-vis Black men. I just read the article about Clarence Thomas. He is not the only one to grow up poor, certainly not the only Black person. Like so many others, my father was raised in that type of poverty Clarence started out in. Given his entire life he should be one happy MFer. I'm sure he does not think he hates Black people. That is also not a leap I'm willing to make either. It does appear that Clarence may have self-esteem issues... leading to a lack of empathy and self-reflection needed to understand that he got to where is with whole lot of help, including affirmative action. Affirmative action was never perfect, but it was a lot better to what we had before it. I benefited from affirrmatove action. But that benefit was still eclipsed by structural racism.

lol! This has already happened especially in Ancient America! Many Natives were shocked when the Europeans began to attack them for this very reason. Many natives were begging 'THE GREAT WHITE FATHER' to help them get rid of the 'Black' natives and so, they were shocked when after this did occur, the Europeans also came after them too! There is much more to what I am alluding to.
