Don't ask me how this book escaped my discovery (Google's fault I guess). Algorithms Of Oppression: How Search Engines Reinforce Racism by Safiya Umoja Noble ADD TO CART

Mzuri WTF are we going to do with the internet when we can’t even do something rudimentary like producing our own hair! Lol..... We'll start producing our own hair, when enough of us start loving it enough to WANT to wear it ....whenever that will be. But we can't wait on that. You'll be a grinning SKELETON sitting in front of the computer waiting on niggaz to get it together like that. "Wonder when Black folks gonna love their own hair and stop wearing Chinese hair? I BEEN waiting for a while now....I sho' am hungry." We can't wait on fools, thugs, and ratchets to get themselves together. The intelligent and decent Black folks need to get together, organize, and began building with eachother. WEB Dubois understood this over a century ago when he promoted his "talented tenth" doctrine. Intelligent minds...need to come together and the building and progress will begin IMMEDIATELY. I guarantee that.

Mzuri Hmmm...... Interesting. Thanks for sharing that with me!

You have a little pronoun problem.

Drugs and creativity go together like hand and a love. Cocaine was big player on Wall Street in the late 80's. One of the managers was and his mistress were allegedly riding the line. For me the Lovesexy was the last Prince Album that had me excited. I have to say I was a huge fan and had a lot of the unreleased material. The raw version of Open Book, Crucial and Still would Stand all Time area few of of my favorite boots. All the sound quality can be a bit uneven. I think after Wendy and Lisa, he was no longer in a band. It was just musical accompaniment. Although he had some great female vocalist. I went to a few concerts one after show. The most Open Book Crucial Still would Stand all Time the bonus round

***************************************************************** I had taken him to a V.A. doctors appointment when they determined that he had edema and he was admitted into the Army hospital next door. He was due to be released after a couple of days but he had an unexplained episode and they had to put him on a ventilator. He was on it for about five days, they were going to take him off it on Wednesday but then the doctor said he couldn’t breathe on his own and they would remove it on Friday. I went there every day and stayed with my Husband for several hours. Early that Thursday morning, I got a call from his nurse, they had taken my Husband off the ventilator and he was asking for me. When I got there I was so happy he was conscious because we didn’t know whether he was going to make it. My Husband and I are very close, I have known him all my adult life. After we talked for awhile, his voice was raspy and weak from being intubated, he told me that he had seen and talked to God, and that God gave him a message, he told me what it was but he also asked me not to tell anyone else. So I hate to leave you wondering but I must respect his wishes. He did not remember being in a coma or what happened when he was talking to someone and collapsed, the visitors he had or the times when he opened his eyes during the coma. He is very religious, it was a nice message and it made sense. *****************************************************************

Joy Reid was wrong. And yes more attention should be paid to missing black and Latina women too. None of this has to be mutually exclusive. There's a right way and a wrong way to raise legitimate issues. More pressure needs to be applied to mainstream media outlets regarding this issue. At the same time we need a stronger independent black media for news and talk. Furthermore there needs to be more advocacy on behalf of black women. Sometimes our focus on racial and economic injustice is focused on black males. This is our fault as much as white people's.
