@SpeakHerTruth I will defend the black community in the usa and say, black people , all age groups, living today have to realize that in the black community in the usa we have many battles of heritage, what we carry, that had very negative legacies in the cultures, what we grow, afterward. When the war between the states ended , while most black people could be considered christian, we were not church people. Remember, black churches were common after the war between the states. Why does that matter? the creation and administration and culture of black churches was a battle in the black community that we don't speak of enough. As always in the usa in the black community , no consensus existed really, but who won the war? Black churches, financed by whites mostly, who felt the illiterate black people , who were illiterate through slavery not their own means, were a lesser peoples who needed sheparding by the black people more fortunate to have been allowed to learn. We had the black college movement, again mostly founded by white churches, to get the black one percent, the black financial aristocracy to be christian/culturally attuned to the usa- meaning no anti white<get the hate out your heart> - no anti usa<even though you were enslaved and forced to immigrate it makes no difference, which is a clear matter of opinion, not fact>.And in black colleges became a minority in the black community who used their common education as a status symbol to the majority of black people who could read or write, but were not knowledgeable and often used various accents or patuas like geechee, which black people don't like to admit was looked down on by the black one percent. Then you had the NAACP , funded by white jews, who through WEB DUbois believed in the talented tenth, which is another minority in the black community. And this one doesn't like black music/ ala no negro spirituals or jazz, was usually redbone, thus looked down on black people of browner hues in skin, and of course, thought unknowledgeable blacks were lazy. My point, the black community in the usa since the end of the war between the states had a black financial elite, I call the black one percent, who while a minority represented the people in leadership roles in the black community. and that minority in the black community had public negative biases towards black people based on how they talked, what they knew, how they saw the world. and the legacy of that internal bias which started at the end of the war between the states has only grown or mutated over the one hundred and fifty plus years to modernity, the now. Remember, fannie lou hamer had to fight other black leaders to speak. but why? they didn't feel this country, illiterate, person had the right quality of voice to speak for black people, and the sad truth is, more black people sounded like fannie lou hamer than any of the others. So I say this to you Speakhertruth for you to comprehend, the heritage that has given you difficulty has a beginning in our community. It isn't merely random negative chiding. it comes from black people judging other black people based on the differences of heritage or culture, which only creates more negative biases. As I have said in this forum many times, The village has many tribes in the USA. The black village isn't one tribe, it is many tribes. A tribe is the college educated, A tribe is the illegal financial operators, a tribe is the black militants who want to kill , a tribe is the black christians who chide non violence, a tribe is...one of many and our community in the usa since the war between the states has seen the generation/birth of many tribes, but the cohesion of next to none of them. The 1960s is the proof. if the nation of islam/the sbclc- southern black christian leadership conference/the naacp- even while white finances/the black panthers for self defense could had worked together better things would had been better. but... the nation of islam had a religious dislike with christian, the black christians had limits on how they would self defend, the naacp felt financial integration side whites was better, the black panthers were too segregationist. It isn't fair that some black people in the past wanted to not be black and suggested that the way they talked made them superior to other black folk. but they did and the legacy of such actions requires the future to deal with. if it can

@Pioneer1 all good fun of course yes, she was the highest ranking female in the original show and until the female doctor in next generation.

MY THOUGHTS I will try and share what I can from this webinar with screen shots or quotes. And definitely try to regale points. we will see. INFO A Webinar with the South Side Home Movie Project + Orientation to New Online Tagging Tools Hosted by the Chicago Public Library 6:30pm, Wednesday, March 29, 2023 Register here before 3pm for the Zoom link Home movies capture a range of details about everyday neighborhood life in Chicago, from fashion to food to how people walk down the street. During moments of social change, they also show historic events from a unique perspective, revealing what it was like to watch Myrlie Evers receive a posthumous award for her husband Medgar in Grant Park in 1963, or to visit the Wall of Respect in Grand Boulevard in 1968. The South Side Home Movie Project has been collecting and preserving home movies from Chicago’s South Side neighborhoods since 2005, and now holds over 700 of these rare glimpses of South Side life in their local film archive. For Women’s History Month, join the SSHMP team in partnership with Chicago Public Library for a virtual guided tour of the project, featuring home movies with women both behind and in front of the camera, from the 1920s-1980s. SPECIAL NOTE: This session will also debut SSHMP’s new Community Tagging Tools, which let you add your own memories to the home movie database and identify the people, places and events you recognize. For the first time, Chicagoans from across the city are invited to try out this custom crowd-sourcing interface so that your stories become part of SSHMP’s virtual archive. Join us for a live demonstration and hands-on orientation to this new way to contribute your memories to Chicago’s history. How to Attend This event takes place on Zoom; click here to register by 3:00 pm Weds, 3/29/23. Only one registration per household is needed. You’ll receive an email link to the secure Zoom link before the event. Automatic transcription is included in all CPL events using Zoom.

I see... @Troy that explains it all, Olayemi defines a hip hop mayor as someone who comprehends the culture of hip hop which she proved adams doesn't. I myself, have no idea, and don't see adams as that. I see adams or dinkins as black mayors. You say it is the swagger. All three definitions correctly applied. yes, dinkins is from the older black, more DOS than Caribbean or Continental or Modern Immigrant in all earnest, community in harlem. I have gone by where he lived many times.

@Chevdove yeah tituba, in my view, realized what was happening and embraced the chaos. Thus accusing many out of pure instigation.

@Chevdove tituba hanged. the conviction rate was 99% , the speaker said only one didn't hang and that was a white woman cause her husband spoke for her. but most of the men said they knew their wives were witches. and all the convicted hanged but one, a man who wouldn't accept a plea

American Exile Trailer https://www.kpbs.org/news/2021/11/12/voces-on-pbs-american-exile Nixon https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/films/movement-and-madman/#part01 My thoughts The tragedy of the war veterans being deported is how many people living outside the USA see the USA as this escape from being where they are, that they support joining the military of the USA, risking potentially all. The biggest problem with documentarian work is the delay. When I think of a number of the documentaries concerning Vietnam most recently I saw, they remind me how the truth has to wait in the USA, and that waiting period has value. Again, how many Black people in the USA served as agents for the federal government, through the CIA/FBI/NSA/Military/ or some fashion. Why can't Black people in the USA know now. I will love to know how many black 80 years olds were agents in the 1950s 1960s 1970s. Why can't we know now? So many people who marched in the stop the war movement never knew the truth of their own influence. And that matters cause how many didn't act similarly thinking they did nothing. The current truth is so much more valuable than the delayed truth.

yes, @Pioneer1 I put them together. I felt both were lean on their own, so just put both. that book was inspired by the real tituba:) can you remember any more? hope you share Black Girls Breathing , I think jasmine, the black woman who started it, makes a great point.

thank you @Troy i am glad someone beat me to it. @Pioneer1 shame on you:) good points @Delano

My pleasure @Chevdove In defense ICe T has a long existence in the hip hop community @ProfD your right, he is from california, but he is respected in said community. @Troy how do you define a hip hop mayor? If someone wants to become the hip hop mayor of chicago, what will they have to do to be described as such in your view?

I have made two chess boards and now I am looking to make a star trek chess board, commonly called 3d chess any ideas

Richard Murray Chesstable 02 by richardmurray3d on Sketchfab I said I will probably make another and then contemplate the star trek chess board:) any suggestions or ideas please comment Chess table 1

I just love this shows question and answer format. circa 10:25 Was Tituba setting up the plate for chaos? yes she is being interregated, but her story seems to fuel the fire, was it intentional? mental health, i hope all of you shared the prior post i made to black women to participate. https://radar.tumblr.com/post/712970298216136704/i-have-adhd-and-i-find-myself-distracted-calmed AL QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS https://postitforward.tumblr.com/tagged/black girls breathing x tumblr

@ProfD good joke:)

What do you think of the film?

Black people in the U.S.A. don't control the U.S.A. and Black people , whether asian or other, is tiny or impotent in China. I leave collective or communal issues out based on the prior. So, my question is individually, where do you stand on the growth of China in humanity, humanity defined as the entire human collective?

thank you @SpeakHerTruth and @Pioneer1 I retract my prior statement. It is Rihanna. I admit, I don't know Rihanna's look as well as either of you. And I realize, maybe SKettel is miscomprehended. the still image isn't from the film, this is a kickstarter. Some prior work from moon ferguson https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1956&type=status https://aalbc.com/tc/blogs/entry/194-richard-murray-creative-table/page/6/?tab=comments#comment-658

@Pioneer1 the female personification of any country needs to be sexy:) Succulent is the goal, something everyone wants plus is willing to die for in the land. Haiti will improve, it did it before, it will do it again.

Enjoy the design. I will make a design all mine for the second and for the third I will do a star trek 3d chess. Any suggestions or thoughts, please and all are welcome to join in. I used, Figuro to create and hosted on SKetchfab. Richard Murray Chesstable 01 by richardmurray3d on Sketchfab

@Pioneer1 I recall when obama first ran and white people had symbols of him hanging..i argue while unhealthy, it is inevitable

@Troy if you were in Zi's shoes and bytedance gave you the choice to sell tiktok to an american firm , what will you do?

@Pioneer1 no, but the story involves a woman with caribbean ancestry

@SpeakHerTruth yeah, dungeons and dragons is a game built for escapism. People when they play the board game are imaging themselves other things in other worlds. It is literally for the fun of adventure so if the film focuses on that it will probably do well. The only worry is the lack of logic, dungeons and dragons players like rules, the game has rules. the film, if it doesn't break rules it makes itself, then I think the global fanbase to the board game will be satisfied. I never heard of one night ultimate werewolf, thanks for sharing, please post in the group your expanded thoughts to ONUW in a post:) cool, i like monopoly too
