  1. You must not be keeping up with the news. So many breaking stories but not the decisive one.
  2. @Pioneer1 you are confusing your lack of knowledge with information. King was a sexual libertine, Correta didn't speak on it publicly. His extramarital affairs were very different than the Honourable Elijah Muhammed. Who has 8-13 illegitimate children.
  3. That's a statement do Black Lives Matter to Black people.
  4. The defense of women doesn't apply if it is damaging to a famous black Man. Troy and Pioneer you have truly illuminated your positions, Kudos.
  5. Does MartinLuther King's extramarital affairs with both men and women have any bearing on his legacy.
  6. I no longer try to win arguments here or try to change anyone's position. I post a link and later I state my position and I ask questions. I also don't define what your position is or should be. I think our respective positions are clear. I don't have a masculine or feminine perspective. With the exception of Bill Cosby I think about an issue. I also will do a quick search about the issue. I think the Viola Davis thread is a perfect example of my approach. I wasn't any side. And I was able to answer the question that was posed by Mel. Live and learn or not. The comments have already answered this.
  7. @Pioneer1 that was Elijah Muhammed's rational. The good out weighs the bad.
  8. And fire flies
  9. I'm done with our monologues Troy.
  10. Troy you think Black Men protect Black Women. Mel and Cynique don't agree with you. You think I am speaking for the women. Yet both Mel and myself say we are not. I thought it was common knowledge that Elijah Muhammed fathered children with his teenage secretaries. Delano : Who will protect Black Women from the Honourable Elijah Muhammed Troy: I don't know what you mean? Malcolm X: I was told by Elijah Muhammed's son that his father had children with his teenage secretaries. So I left and was threatened. Women were being taken advantage of in the NOI by the founder . It was common knowledge. And when Malcolm X said he was leaving the NOI, he was threatened. So no one in the NOI including Muhammad's son was strong enough to confront him about his sexual activities. I didn't think that needed any explanation. The founder of any organisation having sex with teenagers that he is not married to is a big problem. So in my head women and especially young women are not safe. When their leader is preying not praying. Let me know if any of that is incomprehensible to either @Troy @Pioneer1 or@NubianFellow I am awaiting your responses.

  12. I don't know what you mean
  13. Basically we are at the cross roads. We get it right or it's a wrap.
  14. I have said I am not speaking for women. I have said ask women what they think. Mel said she didn't feel I was speaking for women. I can't believe you said that Troy.
  15. It's a nice complement but I feel everything than can be debated. Especially when an opinion is not fully informed.
  16. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/27/magazine/insect-apocalypse.html?fbclid=IwAR0fraDVymir1RtVjVypjU_7VNntTw5NvEV1R86H0QGqDMYK_yErKASFCsI
  17. Let me reiterate I said he would be out by end of the year. I made that astrological prediction in March. Troy December is a long month ?
  18. So when I agree on a position that you don't, (Pioneer and Troy) have I think like a woman. And when I say Pioneer has a good point Cynique says I have a bromance with Pioneer. Basta Who protected the women from the Honourable Elijah Mohammed?
  19. I think I will drop the adversarial position it rarely is effective.
  20. A female a protects her child in the animal kingdom. So I am going to disagree with you. I have seen more black women than black men protect and comfort black boys.
  21. But no one calls it an air pipe or a wind way. Wind is a moving air. So it's a subset of air. No, not all males are men. Men is a subset of male the reverse is not true.
  22. https://edition.cnn.com/videos/politics/2018/11/30/trump-michael-cohen-moscow-toobin-finish-term-ac360-vpx.cnn?fbclid=IwAR3jr3TPIqffwJD_H0ZjBTXn36Dm82q2jmIGV0FRRDswZgsnm600hPPhgOY
  23. Check this, I used to say Pioneer made a good point or his statement is logically consistent. Note I haven't said that recently. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story, Rever end Pioneer.
