  1. How can you verify anything you rradio or hear? You can check the methodology? Mostly it's a function of reputation. Basically it comes down to replication or if something is repeated. Of you hear news story from credible sources you have more confidence it is true. However even on science or scientific experiments there is bias. The question of verification is he flip side of my argument there aren't any objective facts. While Troy may believe there are, I don't think so. At best there are statements that a significant number of people believe are true at a given point in time Or to the best of our collective knowledge.
  2. Mel that's a grade A exposition. Hustlers have a shorter explanation cop and blow.

  4. Thanks Mel let me know what you think after you read the article
  5. Troy show me anything objective, that all people can agree upon.
  6. Troy I ask for evidence and you are quoting Pioneer. Oh Ok that's all the evidence I need. How many Black women were in primary roles in the civil rights movement. Troy basession in your statements Black women need feminism. Troy I ask for evidence and you are quoting Pioneer. Oh Ok that's all the evidence I need. How many Black women were in primary roles in the civil rights movement. Troy based on in your statements Black women need feminism.
  7. Do you think Michael Cohen is going to give up Donald Trump.
  8. Troy do people generally argue with facts that are counter their experiences? Troy do people generally argue with facts that are counter their experiences?
  9. Troy and Pioneer I have a problem when you say feminism is less important or even dangerous to the black cause. Then rationalise black male violence towards black women. Troy can you provide some evidence of black men having the right to vote before white women. Since I recall the suffragette movement had the slogan women first negros last. I am still not certain about the Carters. Even though the appear to be less self serving.
  10. Troy if I haven't seen something I say so. UBI can freeze people's economic status. Making socio economic status generational .
  11. Women earn less than men and generally have custody of the children in a separation. So women shouldn't be earning less than men. There are three solutions and equal fair and progressive. Equal all pays the same. Fair you get paid based on your experience. Equitable there are differences based on promoting change
  12. Beyonce raises money but BeyGood is not listed as a foundation.
  13. Yes that's a workable definition for me. I'll check out her foundation. Usually there more about tax breaks and paying your inner circle well . However I will look at their financials and report back. There is the man haring aspect of feminism. I once got thrown out if a lesbian bar and I got harasses at a lesbian party. I have had positive experiences with lesbians as well.
  14. Troy did you read the article ?
  15. I think Beyonce is first and foremost a corporation. While I think Jay-Z has both mellowed and mature. They strike me as business first. It is possible they are becoming philanthropic. However to say Beyonce is a feminist is a stretch for me. but I could be behind the curve. This seem more feminist and positive or less ego centrice. http://www.okayplayer.com/music/sampa-the-great-black-girl-magik-music-video.html I am not certain how Beyonce is both showing women as victims and acting as the patriarchy. Perhaps I need to watch Lemonade again.
  16. Universal Basic Income. Tech entrepreneurs are leading the current push for universal basic income, perhaps because they can envision a future where robots do all the jobs, or perhaps because they think, as Andy Stern, the former head of the SEIU and the author of Raising the Floor, does, that it’s the best way to avoid a 1789-style revolution. https://lifehacker.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-universal-basic-income-1825172737?IR=T

  18. The surface problems are financial. Their roots are psychological and sociological. So there are tactical and strategic solutions.
  19. Pioneer is your money in a Black Bank?
  20. Coogler started with a current piece of black history. How you can hate on the Black Panther when he gave you the history first and yall didn't check it. It's on YouTube for free.
  21. There's this "When anybody is faced with spending a long time in jail, they start to re-evaluate their priorities, and cooperation can’t be ruled out,” said one Trump ally who knows Michael Cohen.
  22. He probably is a billionaire but he has always exaggerated. Fortune and Forbes rate him as such. He has over 100 LLC. He sells stakes and has been a best selling author. The phrase you're fired is instantly recognisable. Even though I can't describe one episode of the apprentice. Pt Barnum took advantage of people's deformities for personal gain. He surprises a lot of people by saying what your fellow American feels. He didn't destroy the Republican party he just tools the sheet of of it. BTW the Republicans are embracing him now. March is the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency. April his lawyer got his coat pulled. Let's see what May brings.
  23. When you suggested I get an education you lost me. So you can't give me any useful advice. But that doesn't seem to deter you. So I am going to remove myself from a dialogue with you.
  24. It is not possible for me to tell you anything that you don't already believe. K2. It would take too long and what's the point.
  25. Which is why he is not a lunatic. He is a modern day PT Barnum . Which also got shut down.
