In the book world we own AALBC.com, the largest website dedicated to celebrating the diversity of Black culture through books. We also own over 60 bookstores across the nation, when own several independent publishing companies, at least one book printer, a handful of book distribution companies and this is just in the United States. We actually own quite a bit, it is just that we don't do very much, collectively, to support and promote the concerns. We do however jump through hoops to promote the wealthiest and largest corporations. Authors will tell you to you to buy their books from Amazon, as if it was a secret that Amazon sold books. Authors will tell you to follow them on social media instead of their own websites. Of course Black bookstores and websites, like AALBC.com, could benefit from the free promotion so frequently given to corporations. @Delano, the question is not, what do we own; it is what what do we support.

That's on of the drugs that's currently popular for mind / spirit expansion.

Hi Cynique, why do you like this video? I ask because while it is visually interesting, it does not do anything for me. I was just wondering what it does for you? I see you've complete leap frogged over post images going to video. Next thing you'll be posting custom programs

Terrible tragedies all of them. One thing can be said for modern technology, the early warnings we get and superior infrastructure has clearly saved a lot of lives. Lets pray that Irma, the most powerful we've ever seen in the Atlantic basin, does not take any more lives. Scientists say Earth's temperature has increased a full degree over the course of the last century, and that the higher temperatures allows the air to carry more moisture. As a result, the massive 100-year, 500-year storms we are seeing will become the norm. Still there are those who see no cause for concern. To borrow an approps phase, "winter is coming."

I have some native american blood in me too. I did not know this until my DNA was tested. I also learned where it comes from my mother is descendant from a marriage between the son of a British merchant and a Native American woman. As far as I know, my maternal ancestors were never enslaved. It would be interesting to know how many of 'ole Captain Basse's descendants are considered white today. I wonder if he would be upset about how many negro descendants he would spawn.

Native Americans are still considered the "Noble Savage" and white people are proud to have Indian blood in the veins. ( Not so, with having black blood, however. ) Every black person i know, including myself, claims to have indian blood in them. Native American culture just seems to fascinate everybody, with the feathered headdresses, beaded buckskin garb, painted faces and Pow-Wows where the peace pipe is smoked. Their riding horses bareback and shooting bows and arrows and doing rain dances. i appreciate that they are a very spiritual people, close to the earth and that - sometimes they beat John Wayne and the cavalry. i and many others who attended the University of Illinois were sad that political correctness robbed us of Chief Illiniwek, our sports mascot, whose war dance during half-time shows at football games was as anticipated as the final scores. This was an authentic dance passed down for generations and was taught to the Eagle scouts who were the ones to compete for the honor of being Chief Illiniwek, a proud figure who was never caricatured, but honored and respected. Illinois hasn't been a force in the Big Ten since the chief was banished. The PC crowd tried to do the same thing with the Florida State's Seminole mascot, but the Seminoles told them to go f..k themselves, and that they were proud to be the mascot of a great foot ball team. According to archaeologists, land masses that later broke apart, provided direct access to the Americas and permitted people from other continents to migrate by foot here. The Eskimos got trapped in Alaska when it broke off from the continent but they are the same species of those who did reach the America to become its native people. There are black Mexicans who little is known about but they are there and are discriminated against and considered second class citizens. The same as black Koreans about whom little is known because they are also a well-kept "secret". I have read about these black people as well as talked to tourists who have seen them in these countries. Po ol black folks just caint catch a break.

@Pioneer1Your assumption that this America-born Armenian has an "accent" is just an example of your flawed perspective as is the ambiguous false equivalent example you gave erroneously comparing your specific adjective "Japanese" nationality to my use of the unspecific noun of "Arab" which has no nationality. My calling an Armenian an Arab is not the same as calling a "non Chinese Asian" a Japanese", which is what you claim. A "Korean' is a non-Chinese of Asian descent but calling a Korean a "Japanese" is not the equivalent of calling an Armenian an Arab because Arab is a generic term and Japanese is a specific nationality. i can only take your word for how indignant Armenians are about being commonly mistaken for Arabs. Your whole premise about Serena and her fiance is based on what all of your premises are based on: "Pioneer's Law of opinion representing fact" . The assumption that an attractive, talented, smart, rich woman will be taken advantage of by an attractive, talented, smart rich man is baseless . First of all, as I previously mentioned, if these 2 do decide to get married, - and the may not, there's no way there wouldn't be a pre-nup. But I'm not surprised that these specifics elude you and that you stand by your belief. That's the protocol in the private little world you inhabit. Another example of your mind-set is how you always incorrectly spell a common word like "definitely" by spelling it "definately". Just now, you spelled a common word like "explanation", as "explaination". (These are not typos because you do this all the time.)That the correct spelling of these words which are regularly encountered in reading matter doesn't register with you, says something about your powers of observation. Or maybe you figure yours is the black way of spelling them, and blacks should adopt their own spelling and reject standard English. Whatever.
