For those who don't understand why monopolies are bad for people, this article in Publishers Weekly, might help. https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/bookselling/article/93662-taking-a-closer-look-at-the-ftc-lawsuit-against-amazon.html?oly_enc_id=6133D7773501B8Z Again, Amazon's monopoly has resulted in higher prices for consumers and lower profits for producers. @Pioneer1let me know what you think.

Ofcourse I don't "know" because I'm not in the Israeli government. The average American citizen can only speculate based on what they know of history and what they see in the media. In order for me to actually KNOW how the Israeli military get's it's power I would have to have personal access to Israeli government and military knowledge.

Not all Blacks are loyal to the Democratic Party, Harry Brown. And certainly, not all Blacks support Israel or the Palestinians. Actress Amy Schumer is dead wrong when she claims that if he were alive today, Dr. King would back Israel’s war in Gaza. I doubt very much that Dr. King would ever endorse the slaughter of children. Because that’s what is going on in Gaza with these Israeli air bombings. Which brings me to my point: My people, be careful in the street, your favorite club and definitely when you are online. Just be aware of your surroundings. Yeah, I get it. Hamas dealt a body blow to Israel. But temper your criticisms in any responses. If you don't, you may be tracked and monitored. This is not our war and we do not want to end up dying in it. The destruction is tough to gaze at

You weren't the only one.....lol. I saw the crypto currency scam 25 MILES away and called it out. People looking at you with their eyes bucked open staring around the room as they whisper to you about how bit-coin was the way to go because "the government" can't track it and doesn't know about it. I ask them, how the hell do THEY know about it but thinks "the government" doesn't???? This scam was brought to you by the same right-wing liars who got people to invest in fake gold coins a generation ago because they said the dollar was on the verge of collapsing.

But are they really? Or have THEY been given access to places and information that we aren't privy to? And again, regardless to their actual validity.....why are the vast majority of those making these claims Caucasian????? There are a lot of crazy Black folks. No shortage of Black folks or Native Americans who are bi-polar, or schizophrenic, or on crack. Yet THEY aren't talking about having sex with or being abducted by aliens!

YUSEF! Never count us out! No matter how many turncoats, traitors and liars try to trip you up --- KEEP GOING! https://apnews.com/article/new-york-city-council-election-yusef-salaam-0377cedcbd29f424753c9790551a85de I bet Donald Trump is sulking in his printouts! Ha ha ha. I bet Trump is sulking in his printouts. Ha ha ha

This is great news. I hope the brother goes on to have many successful terms in office. Infact, he should lead the charge to help keep Trump off of New York's Presidential ballot.

I was doing some research on Black-owned websites and stumbled across this -- 70 years of marriage wow! Happy 70th Wedding Anniversary to The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan and Mother Khadijah Farrakhan, who were married on September 12, 1953. Read More.

I will answer that Vast distance question with an imaginary situation... 2000 BC you think anyone alive could have thought of traveling 50 miles an hour...in the early 1800 AD it was thought impossibly by our most imminent scientists, they thought our bodies could not handle it and would be destroyed.. Now at least we can imagine it warped space , worm holes , Dimensional Shifts, Time Travel, Non-local Space and Tachyonic fields The Ancients have always said thought travel is instantaneous. Who knows what science will develop in the future of travel.

@Troy, I've heard about Black Rodeos; however, Mutton busting is a new insight. I bet they were adorbs! @Pioneer1..smh and cracking up because you are never shy of speaking your truth. But, like I mentioned before, your discussions are always head-tilting, thought-provoking, educational, and intriguing. I appreciate you, bruh.

not at all congrats man!!! will share:)

Careful @Pioneer1 this is the Black excellence forum! Mutton busting is when toddlers ride sheep, the way adults "bust" broncos. It is the cutest thing 🙂

That's exactly what I am saying Agreed We are in accord for most part....

Didn't mean to strike a nerve.🤣 Seriously, that's why I wrote folks over a certain age should be advisors and consultants. If a septuagenarian or older still has a sharp mind and they want to contribute, surely they should be a part of life the conversation and decison-making. But, the reality is that the older one gets, 1) they become less physically fit, innovative and productive and 2) less likely being able to relate to the needs of younger folks. Again, there's a reason for mandatory retirement in several fields. Limited liability. Seizing up, falling, confusion and dying on the job are telltale signs that someone is probably beyond their expiration date like a carton of milk.🤣 I'm definitely not advocating age discrimination. We should be realistic when it comes to jobs for senior citizens. H8ll, we have labor laws and age restrictions on people working below a certain age.😎

That's how folks end up being led in the 1st place. When folks aren't working towards their own personal plan or agenda, it's easier to make them followers. The Democratic party takes the Black vote for granted without having to deliver anything tangible. 😎
