I got the short story collection, the wishing pool,from Tananarive Due. My proof is the penultimate paragraph in the introduction ends with a word, it starts with an o. Any others who have it, private message me if you know the word My two favorite black female writer story collections are: Every Tongue Got To Confess from Zora Neale Hurston, seven best stories from Alice Dunbar Nelson. They each are different. Hurston's are very old. They represent Black life before the war between the states and the period during and after that war ended until the end of reconstruction. Nelson's are more focused. Representing a minority in the minority as a black woman from new orleans. Oddly enough, both writers are not only black women but have a love for the black communities they were raised in which went against, the strong idea from many of their male contemporaries like Richard Wright or Langston Hughes that saw a need to erase or eradicate the cultures of Black people in the USA that predated the war between the states. Sequentially, I expect Tananarive Due's book to be other from Hurton's or Nelson's in subtleties. But it is telling how magic is prevalent in each of their short story collections. Yes, I have only read Due's introduction but I am aware of her enough to know a little of her prefered style. https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2213&type=status

ah cool @Dee Miller and I am happy to bring positivity

Do you play pokemon?

@Pioneer1 in my view, you hit the nail on the hardest thing for most countries in humanities history to handle. The nail is a question. How bad is the country I live in? The average person in media in the usa will say the usa is the best, no problems, it is a tired narrative, but it is what is said. And that is the point. Perception is the point. how many people in the usa like it? like where it is headed, inevitably? I wonder. Media suggest everyone is overjoyed but is everyone overjoyed?

@Pioneer1 fair enough

yes @Pioneer1 I don't know who owns it but it is still around and has black people on it, though littered with bots

nice entries @Pioneer1 thanks for advertising:) @Dee Miller that is your song, woman to man, but what about man to woman and what about duet?

You ask is it a sin, and that is a false question. a sin is when something is false. If people are in a polygamous relationship then it isn't a sin. And I exclude religious queries as my reply only deals to the secular. The question is, is it a problem. And the answer to that isn't complicated. The key is freedom. Is this freely being done? Are three or more people engaging themselves absent coercion or trickery? if so then , no problem. It may not be a common act. but again, commonality or religious legitimacy aren't issues. https://blackplanet.com/post/433519?start=0

but @ProfD oscar micheaux gained a relative fortune that allowed him to make his movies based on exodusting. you say it was poorly planned and looslely organized, I rather say it was unsupported by most black leaders of the day. That is my point. Black leaders have guided the black community to the current situation. A situation not of black power but black membership in a multiracial power usa where all peoples, including whites, are learning in a rough way how to live among each other peacefully or prosperously through an individual mantra.

@Pioneer1 true history no I am thankful I didn't either. but I am glad you at least didn't have too many nights like that. I feel children need to be happier not sadder. Too many black adults I hear preach the trial of hardship on black children like a smiling adult is supposed to arrive after a childhood of pains. we always came back... I am glad we did too:)

@Pioneer1 the exoduster movement was in the usa. I didn't mean to suggest leaving the usa. Even though I have publicly stated I support garveyism. You said you wanted black people to make and enforce our own laws. the exoduster movement was a set of black people who chose to move into the western states circa war between the states to make black towns where black people ruled in the usa. But Frederick Douglass/ Black Churches, Black elected officials in places like south carolina all opposed the exoduster movement for various reasons. So it didn't get the kind of traction it needed. But it wasn't black laziness or wanting white patronage, it was black leaders, undoubted black leaders, in a key moment that opposed the exoduster movement. I oppose your view, I think most black people have followed the black leaders. Frederick douglass wanted integration, black people integrated. the churches wanted non violence, black people are mostly non violent. Don't tell me black people don't have the right to not have murderers when the white community in the usa has never stopped murdering since they came to these shores. The problem is, integration doesn't lead to the changes people think,. In human history this is fact. Black people in south africa/irish in england/ koreans in japan , oppressed people never change the systems of their oppressors being in them. If you know of a historic example do tell. Non violence and following the law isn't going to protect you from being murdered or killed. But in defense, look at the quantity of black people fiscally wealthy , happy in the USA. I say that the majority of black leaders guidance in the past in the usa has bore fruit. Again, was it whites that told douglass to oppose exodusters or immigrating movements out of the usa to various locals? it wasn't. Was it whites who told W.E.B. Dubois to testify against garvey? Was it whites who told black soldiers in world war I or II to make extra efforts in the usa, as if they needed to prove something in the usa? Black leaders made their choices and black people followed. I don't blame the black populous for being led not as good as it could had been. And even the individual mantra which many black leaders place on the community has one great flaw. tens of millions of people do not share one mind and if each is an individual then a leader is a fool to think they can profess individualism and bootstraps to all the flock but then demand they all think like the leader. The leader is fooling themselves if they think that.

@ProfD Pioneer made a quote in another post Pioneer's quote delivers a present, modern, sense in the very forum we communicate in. Pioneer stated a goal that is a larger sense of black potency or ownership but what pioneer state secondarily is the current activity of many ,and I say most, black people in the usa. Sequentially, regardless of other intentions, joining into white organizations can only lead to a peaceful coexistence to whites in the usa as the end goal. You say reparations, profd says black self rule, but what black leaders guide most black people to do is merely integration to create peaceful multiracial participation into the usa, rightly or wrongly. Getting reparations anywhere near warranted or a measure of self rule for a majority of black people can not occur through integrated participation side whites in organizations in the usa.

@Pioneer1 I have a question, for clarity. Are you saying the Black American community in the USA needs to 1) make our own laws 2) enforce said laws ourselves? If the answer to the prior question is no, then please clarify where or the location. If the answer to the prior question is yes. I ask cause isn't that a very challenging goal? The USA has many non Black people. nothing is impossible but your goal is quite the challenge , i must admit. It would had been better if more black people adopted the exoduster movement in the past for your stated goal. What you state Pioneer has been the strategy by the majority of black leaders since frederick douglass in the usa. In the end, I argue what you call the next best thing has been and is the primary thing for black people in the usa, rightly or wrongly.
