Listen to these LOVERS of America bitch and moan because also being shuckers and jivers who, between constantly objectifying women, crow about black men being superior to males of other ethnicities, and who are now sulking because their fellow chauvinists can't control their "much-envied" sexual prowess the way certain other black men are able to do, thus providing newsworthy material for the dreaded white media which is controlled by the deep state racist conspirators plotting to demonize black men in order to keep them from acquiring the power they are too inefficient to acquire in the first place. HoHum. Same ol, same ol. What black folks need to do is ,,,.go find a deserted island and start their own country so they can fight amongst themselves without interference from dem bad ol white folks who have no intention of sharing their power with a sub culture of colorists debating who's black and who isn't. Obviously I'm not trying to win a popularity contest here. Since I've turned in my black credentials. I can spew the narrative of my tribe and keep on truckin'. What a wise man who should've said nothing, once let slip: "It is what it is."

To be clear, I'm not advocating that anyone, rich or poor, should get away with violating someone else especially if they're under the age of consent. Celebrities really have no excuse because there's no shortage of ready, willing and able, consenting adults. More importantly, celebrity Black men should *always* believe folks are scheming on that bag. In fact, they should only deal with folks who have money too. As the referee tells every boxer...protect yourself at all times. They had a 10 year toxic relationship. She should've gotten away from Diddy after the 1st time he carried her sideways. That hotel incident probably wasn't it. Yet, something made her stay with him. I don't believe it was fear. It's absolutely Diddy's fault. He's not a dumb guy. He knows how men get taken down. Ego is killer. No doubt...the individual brings heat upon themselves. However, the white media takes great delight in reporting from that potential gravesite especially when it's a Black man. OJ is dead and gone and they're still talking about him.😎

My sentiments exactly!!! ✊🏽 YES!!!

Blah,blah,blah, - more blather from Piognat, that well known authority on nothing. I'll take Mel's explanation about the sorority/boule alliance ANY DAY over that of a second rate, self important wanna-be who, himself, is not a Greek, nor a college graduate, who is nothing more than a garrulous blow hard warehouse peon with a god complex who thinks he's infallible and that his half-baked opinions are the gospel truth. But his transparency becomes more evident by the day as he struggles to be relevent @TroyAnd he's certainly not one of a kind! He's just another example of the anxiom about "a little bit of learning being a dangerous thing"; a fool who knows not, and knows not that he knows not. Pitiful.

@Pioneer1As usual you invoke your straw man retorts by contradicting what i didn't say. What I did say was, "bougie" is simply pop culture slang. And I did not deny that the boule had a connection with the DuBose talented tenth. What I further pointed out was that just because you are a Greek or belong to the boule doesn't mean you are automatically wealthy so the connection between boule and the well-off family on the Beyond the Gates soap opera wasn't a "given" as you implied. Furthermore, Sororities are members of the Divine Nine so they do have an affiliation with the boule, something you denied. Moreover in 1951, my first year at the University of Illinois, I resided in the Alpha Kappa Alpha (Gamma Chapter) sorority house, and I and the girls in my pledge group remained bonded and friends all of our lives. And, incidentally, I can tell you that there was no worship of Greek gods there as you falsely claimed. Finally, my father and brother were both members of the Jeptha Lodge chapter of Prince Hall Masons. And my mother was an Easter Star Worthy Matron of Dorcas Chapter, #92. So stfu. You didn't school me on nothing. All you did was emit a lot of superfluous hot-air like the wind bag that you are.

🙏🏽 Thank you so much. 💗 As I mentioned earlier about remembering the ancestors' way to honor our loved one's transition, questioning our place in the world when one departs is one of those rites. Cheyenne told me that if anyone in our family had to get cancer, she felt that she was the best one to handle it. When she was eight, she told me, "Do what you desire before your heart expires." And when I say she lived - she did. When Cheyenne transitioned, I wondered who would fill her space and who would show up and bring joy to others as she did. Not a day goes by that I don't wonder why Cheyenne? Or I wonder why my father didn't survive that bullet wound. Plenty of people survive getting shot. Why do some of us have longevity and not others? I think we forgot our power. This is why these systems use us, abuse us, and drain us. We have the power to choose when we arrive when we depart, and how we live in between. I trust our timing and our agreements with ourselves. Thank you for being here.

Thank you, Pioneer. Yes, she's my daughter, my baby girl. She loved it here. She told me before she passed away. She also lived life - she was courageous. She was on a mission, and by the turnout at her Celebration, she touched a lot of folks with her light and life. One of her high school classmates learned of her passing and came from Seattle to Cincinnati to say fare well. He told us that when he was friendless, Cheyenne became his first friend. Cheyenne wanted to be treated by traditional medicine - and she was. However, she had to push her initial health caregiver even to test her when she told them of her symptoms. Cheyenne didn't take "no" for an answer. It was after the treatment that she realized that the treatments were inadequate - more for money and destabilizing than curing. This is what she wanted everyone to know. What I learned during her experience, as@ProfD alluded to is that many pharmaceuticals could heal and possibly even cure, but those treatments are reserved for the wealthy. Two days before Cheyenne suffered seizures, the doctors prescribed a therapy that could reach her brain, but they had to wait for her insurance provider to approve it. They did the same day she transitioned. Oddly enough, they could have prescribed the medicine before her brain surgery. - My daughter and I are not separated. The part of her who is eternal is still with me. I don't remember the skills to engage with her as I did when she was here in the flesh. I do, however, remember how my ancestors processed the transitioning of our loved ones, and it is a lot different from how Western civilization deals with the death of the body. So, while I miss her physical incarnation, her soul is boundless. ❤️‍🔥 I made this post because I want us to think about our health care—especially as Black people, we must reach back to our ancestral ways to maintain our health. Despite my daughter's paternity—she got her mtDNA from me—mitochondrial DNA, which comes from the mother to its offspring. The mtDNA houses ATP, also known as the God cell, that gives us life and our cells' energy. The medical establishment knows this even though lay people don't. As Prof D said, cancer has been around for millennia, we must remember the ways of our ancestors to survive.
