Do you think all black athletes need to cut the cord of the agents?
I can go on a rant about sport agents or media agents, in the music industry or fashion industry for example, and how they destroy people. But, what say you? is it needed? https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1914&type=status

Will you forgive the rent?
people in NYC owe three year's rent. You are an elected official and your vote is on bill to give those who owe three year's rent money to pay for it, and that is it. Do you say yay or ney? My extended thoughts https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=1903&type=status

rebooted websites and black users
@Troy no orkut isn't black owned but I will like to see if a set of aalbc users can work together and develop a community in one of these sites to direct traffic to aalbc . Cool, I know people in brasil, which is where orkut was most popular, and they told me about this. Yes, I know you are working well as owner/administrator. Proud of your work. If Black people can't do well collectively online then offline well..

rebooted websites and black users
Orkut is being rebooted it seems. what are your thoughts? I admit, if I had money I will try to help aalbc. Money matters in website development. But beyond that... Black e-profiles or e-users... do we use these reboots wisely, what are your thoughts as e citizens? I am not advocating anyone join orkut, but I offer the link as it inspired me to write this post. orkut link

I’m forced to eliminate guest posting on the forums
@Troy This includes not only forums but pages for folk right? No guest comments anywhere? ... Yeah, how people can not make profiles on some sites is one of the great e-questions. I daresay that the ownership of independent websites, their non corporate nature is part of why people don't. I love aalbc to be honest. I know if I ever become truly popular, that will be the real test with my relationship to this website. But I hope I get a chance to attract many many members one day.

No one can go left and right at the same time
A statistic says that in the usa since 2020 more and more parents are financially supporting children 18 and over, but statistics from labor say jobs are in surplus.... A statistics from the NYPD says that black hate crimes has gone up 100%, like jeiwsh hate crime, and asian hate crime went down from last year, but nyc media never shows a person not white incarcerated or in police custody after a hate crime to black people... The party of andrew jackson tried to gerrymander a map and was found unconstitutional by ny state constitution while state laws in texas or elsewhere allow for gerrymandering, but people keep saying one party or another are decent... In amendment, most of the ny state judges that voted the redistricting map unconstitutional were appointed by andrew cuomo

The Black community in the USA need an alternative to Black officials from the Party of Andrew Jackson or Abraham Lincoln
@ProfD weaponry was lacking but history proves lack of weaponry is best replaced by communal strictness. You use a word bloodlust, but the native american lacked the racial views necessary to survive en large. As the great tecumseh realized, all native americans must unite together and oppose those who are not native american, but native americans didn't or couldn't do that. In the same way Black people in the usa have never been able to unite on strict phenotypical bounds. bloodlust isn't a factor. How solidified a community is a factor.

There's no White Supremacy anymore, huh?
@Troy great point about the black 1 percent... The day a black person achieves more fiscal wealth than any other in the usa and then sacrifices said wealth for the betterment of the black community in the usa will be the day all the nonviolence or all the decency against white cruelty will finally get a reply of value.

There's no White Supremacy anymore, huh?
@ProfD It think black power was redefined from collective action to individual achievement when the assassination of the 1960s era black leaders, highlighted in white media by MLK jr, was followed by the leadership of black leaders afterward. Every community has leaders at all times and those leaders lead by example. The leadership of the late 1970s to modernity Black leadership gives one constant view. Integrate as a black person in white collectives. JEsse jackson trying to massage the party of andrew jackson. Clarence thomas as a supreme court justice for the pary of abraham lincoln. The billionairedom of Oprah winfrey. Absent these people saying anything, their lives give an example of a black person profiting away from the black community, not from within it. Fannie lou hamer rejected either party. but she was 1960s era. Black leaders exist today but they are telling black people to do for themselves, miscegenate into the white community. @Stefan if you could stomach reading my post you replied to , or figured how to decipher its language which may be to your extreme distaste, literally, you would had known I said what you said. I didn't offer the question to you, i stated the question as the issue. Your explanations to black individual freedom was not necessary based on how I comprehended my position. ... most don't push back because they need a collective apparatus to push back on. I think many black people want to do, but they know they can't do it alone and to be blunt, black people who have financial wealth or black people in government have to be a part. and said black people are not interested. @Troy thank you, the problem is the difference between individual freedom next to collective freedom. As I Said I said may, not definitively. But that is the problem, that many black people miss. Black leaders do exists, barrack obama, oprah winfrey, clarence thomas, black athletes. but all these people represent a black person as an individual entering a white space or coveting a white space, white space defined as a population class that whites only had before, like the presidency, or one that is controlled by whites, like sport sponsorships. And, never with majority black support. When we ask black children do they want to be president, we all know fully well, being president of the usa is not based on the black vote. When we talk about anyone in big money media, we forget 99 percent of the producers are white so they have to be catered. The Black exceptions to the rule is the goal, the goal that the young WEB DUbois pontificated, that the elder dubois hated. When we talk in black history about talented tenth/HBCU sororities or fraterniites/the black millionaire class or billionaire class, we are talking about a set of black people who as individuals have found personal success, but the black community hasn't. You know this as you said brilliantly and I thank you for your honesty , again. I know this. Stefan , profd, and all others in this post know this. And the problem is, the white power itself didn't come from white individuals. When whites in the lands that became the usa killed who indigenous peoples, enslaved many black people unconcerned for the many more dead in the ocean, that was white collective freedom. But it was through negativities. White people in the usa didn't take power from white people in europe through individual freedom. It wasn't meriting through europe's systems. So, history shows the way. @Dr Francis Welsin I wasn't at the million man march, i was a kid. but many male relatives were there. they all said one thing was clear. Black men were united at that event for one thing, looking for guidance. looking for a plan. Black unity has existed in these lands since the first black people of africa was forced out the boats. The unity isn't the problem. the problem is the planning. as Stefan says often, as we all know. The problem isn't that most black people on the boat don't have unity, but we don't have a plan. we are all chained, and we are all in the boat hold. Thus, how do we take over the boat? The problem is the planning by black leaders in the black community in the usa , for better or for worse, has not been good/efficient/results driven for the collective.

The Black community in the USA need an alternative to Black officials from the Party of Andrew Jackson or Abraham Lincoln
@ProfD well, I ask you this, the annihilation of native american peoples by white europeans, you think could had been resolved constructively? @nels I am not trying to proselytize, or gather members, and I know many Black people who concur to your view or oppose your view. But I need to make one thing clear, my position is that both parties are to the detriment of Black people. I do not view the party of Abraham Lincoln or the party of Andrew Jackson as beneficial to the Black community in the USA. Do you comprehend Nels? Both are , to me, no good for the black community in the usa. The only thing that online or offline debates reminds me is how black people , of all types, are unwilling to say both major parties of governance are no good for black people in the usa. I find it interesting that most black people can argue about which of those two parties is bad, but said black people agree, one of those parties has to be the answer.
