I understand you don't like Black women choosing to kick it with non-Black men. But, I think you're reading too much into this situation. Nevermind the fact that if Coco chooses to share her sunshine with Fritz, as the great entertainer Bobby Brown sang...it's her prerogative.🤣😎

Sista @Mel Hopkins...excellent observation. Humans having that ability is part of what makes life worth living.😎

I was referring to the employment eligible population. The same number of people used to generate unemployment statistics. Obviously, there are millions of people who cannot work for one reason or another.🙄😎

Alll non-white immigrants want a comfortable spot under the system of white supremacy. Non-white immigrants don't give a d8mn about FBA/AfroAmericans. They would gladly replace us if they could do it.😎

POTUS OJ has contempt for democratic cities. California is getting a certain amount of smoke from this administration. Those other states are just red enough to be left alone.😁😎

All of that is happening already. We just don't hear about it. The junk food equivalent of news and accomplishment fills the airwaves. Kinda like Real Housewives of [pick a city].🤣 In terms of leveraging our American citizenship and money with business opportunities abroad, many FBA/AfroAmericans are doing that too. It is kept on the low. Don't need h8ters from either side talking that negative sh8t.😎

As mentioned previously, Nigerian leadership was fine with the Isis strike on their soil.😎

POTUS OJ is not a reflection of ALL people. But, there are millions of people who can relate to and/or admire him in one or another.😎

The crazy part is the Mayor of Minneapolis and Governor Walz are being criticized by the Right in expressing their frustration with the events leading up to this tragedy. The irony of this tragedy happening one day after January 6th. On January 6th, a woman was shot and killed as she tried to further storm the Capitol. Some folks on the Right are now hailing her as a hero. Yet, the same folks are saying the woman in Minnesota assaulted police officers with her vehicle. When sh8t happens, the cognitive dissonance and what-about-ism that plays out in media is beyond ridiculous. These people are supposed to be adults.🤣😎

Excellent post. A long time ago, I recognized POTUS OJ as the personification of racism white supremacy and the worst of humanity. This guy represents millions of white men and a few wannabes among non-white men too. Many women are dealing with it as they have been conditioned to do by culture. Demagogues do not come a dime a dozen. There will be no MAGA torch-bearer when this clown expires. Thankfully, POTUS OJ is too old to wield power more than a few years. The main thing is how much damage he'll do in the process. Hang on to your seats. The ride could get bumpy. In my eternal optimism, I believe this too shall pass.😎

ICE showed in Minnesota to round up folks on the back end the fraud scandal that has dogged the state over several weeks. Unfortunately, a 37-year-old woman was fatally shot as her vehicle appeared to be heading towards an ICE officer. He pulled his weapon and fired into the driver side window. It was only a matter of time before someone either got seriously injured or killed as ICE runs around in cities rounding people up. What started as an immigration enforcement initiative is quickly becoming a weird game of bounty hunter. So far, neither DHS Secretary nor POTUS OJ has said the right thing in the aftermath of this tragedy. I don't believe the USA can keep a lid on this powder keg for 2.8 years until the next election.😎

FBA/AfroAmericans have to strategically align among themselves before we can start branching out to other groups. I'm certainly not suggesting that other groups take the lead in forming strategic alliance with FBA/AfroAmericans. Whichever groups of people with something tangible to offer in building strategic alliances should bring it to the table. The point in forming strategic alliances is mutual benefits to all parties.😎

I believe the people of Haiti fought back militarily just enough for the French to fall back in battle. The French lost the revolution but won the war by putting Haiti in poverty into perpetuity. Whatever the Haitians used back in 1800 hasn't worked ever since as they are still paying restitution to France. England did the same thing to their West Indian colonies. Pulled out and left while taxing them into perpetuity. I've answered above. But. for as much as some Black folks believe in religion, voodoo, witchcraft and other practices, none of it seems to work to the betterment of our overall net condition on the planet.😎

To be clear, the strike was not on Nigeria. It was aimed at the Isis terrorists.😎

The New Black Media should be called out whenever they are off code. Building strategic alliances is a 2-way street. Have other groups of people drawn up a viable plan? Definitely call them out on their non-constructive, divisive and derogatory actions since some of them like to cite the teachings of NF Jr., John Henrik Clarke, Dr. Ben and Dr. Frances Cress Welsing. The least constructive and productive among them should be called on the carpet. Paid OPs among our people have always existed. Gotta fight through it and continue pressing toward the mark of a higher calling.😎

IMO, the New Black Media should stay focused on the following: 1) Reporting issues of which FBA/AfroAmericans need to be aware under the system of racism white supremacy 2) Maintaining our history and recognizing our master teachers i.e. Black folks past and present 3) Highlighting positive accomplishments of FBA/AfroAmericans 4) Networking opportunities 5) Reparations There is really no reason for FBA/AfroAmericans to be concerned in one way or another with non-oppressor groups of people. FBA/AfroAmericans should delineate from other groups of people that: 1) do not want to build strategic alliances 2) support the system of racism white supremacy Otherwise, FBA/AfroAmericans have enough issues to deal with instead of putting on a cape for others. History proves that from slavery up to present, no other group of people has significantly helped FBA/AfroAmericans here the USA. FBA/AfroAmericans should not get into petty beefs or go back & forth with any other group of people especially other Black folks. They are victims too. The mission of FBA/AfroAmericans should be putting in the work necessary to make America pay for its original sin. Anything else is a smoke screen or distraction. A waste of time & energy.😎

Not yet. it won't happen until unemployment hits about 15% of the population.😎

China and Russia as boogeymen has always been hilarious to me. China is responsible for manufacturing a huge amount of the products Americans consume. Russia has supposedly been a threat to the US since the 1950s up through the arms race and Cold War. Yet, look no further than how the leaders of these countries interact with each other. Traveling back & forth; grinning & smiling & slapping each other's back. As China threatens Taiwan and Russian slaps Ukraine around, POTUS OJ can only say, he's unhappy with those leaders actions OTOH, Iran cannot do anything to the US militarily but their nuclear facilities are blown up. Venezuela is not responsible for the fentanyl that's killing Americans but their president and his wife are kidnapped in the darkness of night. Geopolitics is a game where the countries at the top of the food chain decide how they want to exploit weaker countries. For fun and entertainment, the super power countries indulge in saber-rattling and other fake war games among themselves. I'll believe there's real beef between super power countries when sh8t hits the fan. I'm betting it won't happen in my lifetime or within the next several decades.😎

Nope. I don't believe in curses either. Otherwise, the Black folks in the Bayou or wherever should have been able to shut down slavery and prevent the system of racism white supremacy.😁😎

The majoirty of men would do the same thing...walk away from an unwanted advance. Especially men who have too much to lose i.e. women, money, freedom, material possessions, etc.😎

I don't believe people are either lucky or unlucky throughout life. Good and bad luck can vary from one person to the next. A rich person can lose $100 dollars and not consider it bad luck. A poor person can find that $100 dollars and consider it good luck. The same $100 dollars meant different things to those two people.😎

They are victims of racial confusion. White supremacists will eventually remind them of their non-white status. 😎

Case in point...the fact is that you didn't break his jaw. It would have been easy enough especially with his pants around his ankles.🤣😎

Not routinely good or bad. Although, it would seem that some folks have *better* or *worse* luck than others. You can ask me the same question 100 different ways and my answer won't change.🤣 I don't believe there is some force, power or authority influencing luck or anything else. Purely chance. If such a thing existed...then, I'd question how it picks & chooses the winners & losers in this existence i.e. lucky vs unlucky.😎

In general, the majority of men do not harm people even when it comes to their own self-defense and/or their loved ones. There would be a whole lot of harmed gay dudes if the majority of men who have been hit on retaliated against them. The majority of men would ignore a gay dude making advances at them in the same way they don't give unattractive women the time of day.😎
