  1. @Pioneer1 to your points who know how lightly I moderate this forum right. I allow people to say anything they want. What happens to people who say dumb shit like "Black people are immune to covid-19?" Someone corrects them. They are not allowed to say utter nonsense without being challenged. These people always leave on their own and often remove all of their posts on the way out. Twitter's platform does not allow this. On Twitter someone can say Black people are immune to Covid-19 and they would be supported by countless algorithmically driven bot's that amplify and share the message to those most susceptible to believing it while other bots rejects people that would reply with the truth. An estimated two-thirds of tweeted links to popular websites are posted by automated accounts – not human beings. Do you think the way AALBC forums, for example, are moderated protects free speech? Just know that how we operate here is impossible on Twitter and that is the problem. I wish Twitter would just die already.

  2. -raising the price of tuition forcing millions of parents and students to go into debt. -using biased admissions polices based upon wealth and nepotism -getting rid of affirmative action for Black white keep in firm y in place for white Specialized schools like Stuyvesant don't even let Black students in any longer the school has over 2,000 students but only lets a handful of Black students in each year. Sure they have an admissions test, but most of the public middle schools in the segregated Black neighborhoods don't prepare students for schools like Stuyvesant or Brooklyn Tech. I used to speak and Brooklyn Tech at Career Day. I would speak to several classrooms and not see a single Black male student. Rich folks are immune to the poor public schools in urban centers because they send their kids to private schools. Yes @Pioneer1 most of these people are white. Again if these white folks were truly racist, why don't they do something about all these poor white people? Why are some white folks so unhappy they they would attempt to overthrow the government. The poor and ignorant people are racist, rich white people are just massing wealth and an alarming rate.

  3. Troy Oh no. Man o man, I'm sorry to hear that about the brother. He lived a long (in this day and age) and successful life. I'm sure he had FEW regrets in his final conscious hours. I wonder how is his wife holding up. Often times when it comes to couples at that age who've been together with eachother for that long, the surviving spouse....... BTW who is that gentleman you are using as your Avatar now? Ordinarily I'd give you a smart-ass answer before giving up the name but after hearing the news about our brother, nah..... He's one of the wealthiest and most successful AfroAmerican men during the pre-Civil Rights era. The Black Titan himself...... Mr. A.G. Gaston He owned hotels, restaurants, construction companies, insurance companies, ect.... The brother had the Midas Touch and everything he touched turned to gold. MLK used to stay at his hotels. You probably have heard of him but if not I'm almost sure Daniel @daniellegfny knows who he is....lol. He also lived a relatively long life....he actually made it OVER 100!
