I thought to myself what of an inversion of scale. So, the dimensions are referenced larger with the smaller scales. With Matryoshka dolls, or any stacking or nesting dolls, the inner is like the outer, and is multilayered. With "mise en abyme", placed in abyss, you have a picture in a picture usually representing the same, but in earlier versions it is an expansion. In mine, each level to the interior has an expanded geography , so the most external level is cellular.

GQ FF 3.1415 TUD episode 01 Deviation URL https://www.deviantart.com/hddeviant/art/GQ-FF-3-1415-TUD-episode-01-1316533222 Challenge https://www.deviantart.com/hddeviant/journal/Lost-Episodes-of-Galaxy-Quest-1286894190 https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/693-lost-episodes-of-galaxy-quest/ CONTENT GALAXY QUEST FARTHEST FRONTIER 3.1415 THE ULTIMATE DESCENDENTS The Chosen from Richard Murray / @HDdeviant Somewhere in the galaxy multiple laser blast, torpedoes, or more weapons worthy of space's dangers are targeted to a pinkish figure. Many fragments of ships in the fleet of the National Space Exploration Administration (NSEA) crackle or spark around the Kuu ship, a massive lumpy unevenly shaped pinkish vessel spitting out laser blasts, absorbing anything in particular like stretched bubble gum twirled back into the mouth to be chewed. Demarco-Taggart jr. stand in this lethal blob somewhere, unrecognizable while surrounded in Kuu tech, appearing like a pink sand statue in a tide, an eye peering from his enraptured soul to the carnage he is guiding to his former fellow NSEA officers after being abducted. In a fragment of an NSEA ship, in a hall with flashing red light pulsing in eminent darkness, a Lieutenant run past crew folk, telling them to get to the escape pods. The Lieutenant gets to her room and the door opens and she cries out at the sight, pushed back by the heat; her son and husband are in hot metal rubble; she is able to reach her son and fortunately a crew man arrives; she tells them to get her son, Scorpius, to an escape pod. The crew man gives Scorpius to another and advises the Lieutenant to leave. The Lieutenant exclaims without question she can't leave with her husband, Clay, who is motionless under burning rubble. The Lieutenant burns her hands, repeatedly trying to get through rubble to Clay aided by the crew man while pleading for the crew man to help. The crew man uses a communicator and assesses Clay's spirit has flown. The Lieutenant is inconsolable, and the crew man grabs her and pulls her away to an escape pod. In a minute later, while embracing a deadly calm, the Lieutenant sits next to her sleeping son, watching the fragment of ship Clay's dead body lay in explode, like the last firecracker giving out hope. ...Three years later, Scorpius is happily sculpting a fish, while a box shaped device with a button and red light is next to his work ,in the rec room of a ship, the ceiling of the rec room plays soundscape music while it appears like a morning sky on Earth. Scorpius's mother enters smiling, calmly walking to her son. "Hey Scorpius" "Hey Mom" They hug and she kisses his forehead. "Ready to go" "yeah" Scorpius taps a button on the little box, and a light goes from red to green, and the sculpture disintegrates on the table. The parent and child exit, with the Commander pressing a button revealing a window to space where the ceiling was, showing a part of a space station, like a giant red crystal floating in space. The space station was Man Klar designed, by the reflective skinned Fulesians, as a guard tower over Miensa. For hundreds of years the Fulesians occupied Miensa and used the, three skinned, Miensans , Miensa, or the Gateway, however they saw fit. This red quartz like space station became a constant reminder of the blood shed by Miensans until the NSEA Fulesian war; said war led to a peace deal where Fulesa left Miensa. Now months after, Man Klar is Farthest Frontier 3.1415, a space station controlled by Miensa which will be used to NSEA in process of Miensa becoming a member. But Miensa has no fleet or natural resources of galactic worth. A fiscally unimpressive planet with an ancient while non-utilitarian gateway, and an old space station going through an exodus. And in its promenade, Major Koshi, of Miensa security formerly of Miensa resistance, is trying to fix a fractured section of a wall. The frustration of trying to place many little pieces properly is overwhelming. A cat calling whistling sound is made on Koshi's chest communicator. She is notified that officers of NSEA have arrived. She leaves for the docks. At the docking bay, Tech Sergeant Bebre waddles into Farthest Frontier 3.1415 complaining of the docking bay clamps and the condition of the hull she saw from the outside, being held by Doctor Rama who signs the Sergeant how happy he is to be in this location, with its ancient history and the historic moment. Koshi greets them; eyes widened at the sight of Bebre. Koshi admits she never saw a Sleen before. Bebre informs Koshi this is her forty fifth pregnancy, being an officer in the NSEA can be quite eventful. Bebre signs the Doctor to go on to the infirmary with the Major; she has to look around in her big baby, and she has her communicator if need be. Koshi walks with Rama to the infirmary, and he ask her, does she have any idea what the gateway will be? Koshi reply, she doesn't know but the gateway has never brought anything good to her life. Koshi leaves Rama inspecting the medical ward, which has NSEA components lodged into the Fulesian structure. Commence Station Log. Farthest Frontier 3.1415, Commander Ethel Twta , Me and Scorpius have entered a new chapter in our lives. This station is at a pivotal moment, and I have little time to prepare or manage or guide, but if a team can be found among the NSEA and Miensa officers, the best chance possible for success will happen. Commander Ethel Twta enters Farthest Frontier 3.1415 smiling with her son, the duo hugging as they walk to their quarters. On the way she reminds him to have patience with this new home alongside himself. He admits he misses Miensa's calm country but confirms he will do as she guides. They enter their quarters and Ethel says gently, get yourself comfortable and we will have dinner together later, remember me and your father love you, are proud of you. Scorpius smiles and Commander Twta leaves. Commander Twta , heading to the operation deck, is assessing the station and its inhabitants firsthand, when Koshi exasperated greets her. "Hello Major" smiles Twta, but Koshi is wary and say, the gateway will take another shape soon and for the first time in hundreds of years Miensa could have benefited from it if possible, but the provisional government rejected that to hand it to NSEA. Twta reaffirms that NSEA is only interested in guiding Miensa. Before Koshi can reply, a cat calling whistling sound comes from Koshi's chest communicator. "What is it Eyea?" "Pro-blem-in-pro-me-nade" Koshi turn from Twta and say "we will talk again" Koshi goes to the promenade and Twta follows. In the promenade three figures are held still by Energy beams emitted from, Security Chief Eyea, a Dedom2, an ancient race of sentient electronic drones. Of the held, one is a child, the other two are adults. Koshi arrive and speak straight to the Ataut child, his completely red eyes untelling. "What are you doing Pee?" the child replies: "just a small training exercise Major" Eyea interject: "found-caught-re-veal" Eyea use a beam and reveal an empty space where a wall appeared to be. Pea shrink and Koshi smile: "Well well, little fight clubber, Eyea take them to the brig" "Woo wowowo woo wait a minute": loudly proclaim an Ataut adult,: "my family 's fight here is done" Twta loo on as Koshi reply: "No Been, your cousin broke the law, you know the Miensa government doesn't allow fight rings" Been look about and notice Twta and say: "But I believe this station is a cooperative between NSEA and Miensa , and we all know NSEA loves being cooperative" Twta tells Eyea to continue their operation, and Eyea escorts Pea to the brig. Twta's chest communicator says in a male sexy voice: "How! Does! It! Feel!" Twta gets a message from an officer. The NTE-3120 has arrived. Twta gives confirmation and tells Koshi: "We must prepare the station for the celebrations of the gateway. I will be back shortly" In the meeting room of the NTE-3120 Commander Peter Demarco-Taggart jr. sits calmly as Commander Ethel Twta enter, her anger evident on first glance by Taggart jr. But Taggart jr. offer a handshake, happily saying Commander, and Twta slowly accept saying Commander with a bitterness. Taggart Jr. is confused. "Have we met?" Twta reply: "only in battle" Taggart jr. comprehend instantly. A silence exist in the room. Taggart jr. look away, offer no words. After a time, as Twta stand patient, Taggart jr. say: "I came to offer assistance" Twta reply: "No thank you, we will do fine on our own, and if I am not up to the task I will resign" Taggart jr. gesture to say something but dismisses it. Twta ask: "is that all Commander" Taggart jr. shake his head and Twta say: "I will never give up... never surrender" and exit the rec room of the NTE-3120. In the office of Eyea, Been is waiting for Twta while Eyea handle information managing its own floppy disk drives. Twta enter the office and Been eagerly approach stating: "His uncle's son will be out of the station's hair as soon as they leave and they are already packed" Twta replies, "I want to discuss your future plans" and continues "If everyone leaves the station, it will become a dead zone which will hurt Miensa. I need you Been, to stay" Been reply :"The Fulesians allowed the fighting pits which fit me and my cousins way of life, while the Fulesians achieved profit from the gamblers who came from every sector of the quadrant... but without the pits how do me and my cousin live as Atauts? Without the fighting pits, where is the money? " Twta reply: "The Miensa government opposes fighting pits but if I can get a tax on the activity, with the promise, the guarantee of no deaths, will you take on the fight and stay?" Been reply: "If I say no, will my cousin be free" Twta reply: "Ask Eyea, he has the jurisdiction" Eyea rotate a cylindrical section like a negative shake of the head. Twta begin to exit and say:"It is your choice Been, if you choose to accept, the festival for the gateway is needed and I want this station to have a festival. you can organize it, and your cousin can help... if you accept". Twta exit and enter her and Scorpius's quarters, where she finds her son laying on a couch and she sighs. In the NTE-3120 , sixty-five-year-old Lieutenant Laredo is in the digital conveyor room side his wife Alinta, their bags prepared. Commander Taggart jr., Lieutenant Laliari, Dr. Lazarus, Tech Sergeant Chen with his cane, Security Chief Ingersol in his exoskeleton look on lovingly. Laredo speak: "I started in this ship as a pilot, became a science officer under the best teacher, met my wife, raised two children and became a grandfather multiple times. It has been an honor" Taggart jr.:"thanks teach" Chen side Laliari present Laredo side Alinta a cake. Ingersol smile and point a finger: "ready when you are" Dr. Lazarus is saddened"... By Grabthar's Hammer, by the Suns or Warven, you shall be blessed" Laredo and Lazarus give the Mak'Tar salute. Alinta say: ".. don't worry, we will take care of each other" and she smiles. Laredo finalize: "good luck on your mission guys, too bad you can't stay for the gateway opening" In a dock of Farthest Frontier 3.1415 Alinta tell Laredo: "I will go to our room, and prepare, you know Ananda's kids will be here soon. But you need to get acquainted with this crew" "Thank you wife": and Laredo kiss Alinta "Thank you husband" Lieutenant Laredo sees the festival on the promenade. Mostly Miensans but other life forms as well are celebrating the return of the Gateway. Laredo see Commander Twta, Scorpius, Major Koshi, Eyea, Bebre, Rama, aside Miensa clerics on the observation deck while Been has customers in his fight pit and his cousin Pea is calling out the activities of the festival. Laredo taps Twta on the back and Twta smiles: "hey teach" Scorpius hugs Laredo. Twta says: "everyone meet Lieutenant Laredo, my teacher in the academy when he took a hiatus from galivanting about the stars." Everyone greets each other. Koshia says: "You got Been to stay" Twta reply: "I am here to help, and I will prove it to you one day with actions" Koshi smile. Bebre say: "This will definitely help the baby and the babies to come" Rama ponder: "What will the Gateway look like this time... a little research and it seems to change and where it will go is really in the air" A female Miensa cleric look to Twta and speak "with the Chosen here, the Gateway will do as destiny wrote and heal Miensa an beyond" Suddenly, brightness as if from a star appear. The light grows and grows until it forces all to squint, and then the light ebbs to reveal a door. The people int eh promenade cheer. Bebre say: "the composition is not indicative of any known prior form of the Gateway" Laredo say:"the ship's telemetry says it goes to the Nu Quadrant" Koshi is in shock. Rama is excited. Eyea say "Nu" The female Miensa cleric look to Twta:"You are the Chosen" NEXT TIME on GALAXY QUEST Farthest Frontier 3.1415 The Ultimate Descendents Koshi say to Twta:"If you are the chosen, then you have to do this" Eyea says:"I-need-this" A Fulesian captain say:"we claim this Gateway" Bebre is in a utility shaft while the ship is being attacked. The female Miensa Cleric touches Twta's ear: "you are the chosen" Laredo in a magical light "Where is this?" Scorpius say:"Hi I am Scorpius" Clay speaking in a magical light: "You are chosen" 2,278 words 12,895 characters NOTES Kuu- an alien race that absorbs other species or objects, adds to unevenly shaped lumpy vessel like bubble gum Taggart jr.- Peter Demarco-Taggart jr., looks like a baby from Commander Taggart and Lieutenant Demarco Scorpius Twta - son of Commander Ethel Twta Man Klar- Fulesian name of Farthest Frontier 3.1415 Fulesian- reflective skinned species, glass skinned, a silver shine [Fule is glass in Oromo] Fulesa - planet of Fulesians Miensa- planet of the Miensans.

Crossing the Sahara finding oases never before seen, the Himalayas mapping passes never before used, the Mariana Trench discovering caves never before considered, the am*zon using non human activity never before heard, I found nothing to advance the knowledge of NTE 3120.

I honestly wouldn't know. But, I do know that everyone who is alive today plus old enough to read knows of the work titled "How Much Wood Would A Woodchuck Chuck If A Woodchuck Could Chuck Wood?" from Nada S. Q. Earl The two hundred and twenty three thousand one hundred and thirty seven [ 223,137 ] magnum opus published 1964 by Planning Parrot , available in every language. We all know the publication of the book has two uncommon factors. 1) The author made every printing a new edition. 2) The author didn't make a prologue to any edition. Your task to unlock whimsy is to take your edition of How~ and make the prologue. Remember each edition is unique so no copying, we will check. What is a Prologue? A prologue , before the writing, has the same function or placement as a : forward, before the wind or turn ; preface, before the speech; introduction, thing to the lead. Each is meant to be before the main content. While no strict correct or incorrect quality in content exist for any of the four, for the sake of this creative challenge, we will set the following variances. A Preface is about the author written by the author as the author. A Forward covers the topic of the main content, not written by the author. An Introduction is the beginning of the main content of the book. A Prologue is content to comprehend the main content written by the author as unnarrated content like maps/lists or prose from a character related to the story/main content. define a preface as we will we will make specifications Prologue Examples K Literature KASSA, or THE NOMADIC ENDLING JALI VINDICADOR P1 KASSA, or THE NOMADIC ENDLING JALI VINDICADOR P Literature Prologue (for a Tails-Bot story) How did we get here in the first place? Well. It all started with a scientist who made special kinds of hypnosis sessions for mobians suffering from any kind of anxiety or just want to experience it. These kind of sessions can turn them into robots...somehow. Though the effect is temporary sinve the scientist doesn't actually want to enslave them. He called it "droning" Some kept coming back for more. Amy Rose was one of them. She got droned so many times, she's practically convinced that she's a tobot by default. Thieves suvh as Rouge tried to get their hands on such techniques. Only for them to get droned temporarily before being released with no memory of what happened. But all hell broke loose when Eggman got his hands on this technique. Using it to create his Egg-drones. These drones have no will, no personality, no thoughts, just to obey their egg emporer. Ever sinve, the scientist had gone missing and never came back. The Annals of Aetheria Prologue Dec 31, 2025 Prolouge I.

Silver Buffalo The rains pour, beginning days ago, morphing this part of the Llanos from dry plateau to drop-zone for millions of free-flying drops of water, instantly becoming lines of sleepwalkers to the Orinoco River. A man on a lemon-skin horse ride to a posada , just north of a stretch of Orinoco; he get off the horse carrying his tuned Winchester 1895 and don't turn to look at Cerro Negro, the highest point for a distance; he pass five healthy horses and stand still as the front door of the posada, echoes from a happy gathering in a corner, greet him; he enter and only receive quick or unbothered glances, from any one, and he calmly walk to the bar in the light from the front door. "A cucui coming up": say the woman behind the bar. The sound of raindrops peer into the posada. The man sit on a stool and gather his drink: "Thank you" "Your Portuguese is still poor": smile the bartender. "I need more sessions with you": and the man turn to a trio chatting to themselves. "The silver vest is Pierre, the one-eye vaquero is Julio, the sombrero is Steinberg" The man hold his rifle across his chest and play its butt embedded mbira, to the gambling table. "Hello... Mr. Kassa": say Pierre, on arrival of the mbira player. "You know me?": query Kassa. "No, but your rifle has been whispered about": answer Pierre, shuffling while Steinberg drink or Julio stare through his one eye. Kassa calmly continue playing. Kassa sit continuing to play, and ask:"will you play truco?" "I wiped them clean already ": answer Pierre and continue: "but I will give eight reales for a story if you know one" Kassa look to his rifle and gesture to Pierre positively. Pierre throw coins to Kassa, on the table, like a bid in a card game. Kassa look to the bartender and the bartender come, and arrive. "Porridge": and Kassa hand the bartender a reales and ask to Steinberg, Julio, plus Pierre: "do you want to eat while you listen?" Pierre quickly reply: "of course" Steinberg continue to drink. Julio hesitate and gesture confirmation to the barkeep. Kassa lean back, plucking the mbira in the butt, and begin... I will tell you a story of Yaha and Nili Accita, the wolf and the moon's blanket. A couple made from two lives forged in dripping blood. The last of their kin, out only for revenge... This story began with a legend, laid in the Inoka's land, what gringos call Illinois Country, between Mine la Motte, Missouri, plus St. Philippe, Illinois. A treasure of silver, Monsieur Cadillac, found after killing a people now only two knew. The legend said the map to the treasure was about the town of Argentia, Missouri, now only an inn in the Sweetbushes. The barkeep settle bowls of porridge on the table and Kassa, Pierre, or Julio grab and take a spoonful. Kassa stop and before he can continue the tale, Steinberg stop drinking and look to him. And Kassa gesture to the bartender. "You are kind": say Pierre "A meal and a story is a beautiful thing": reply Kassa. "I don't recall the bartender being so attentive": question Julio, as he eat. "Maybe I will learn her name later": and Kassa continue... In the inn where Argentia once was, a female bartender was in charge too. She was blond haired with dark eyes and porcelain skin. A one eyed old black man was her servant. They both sat at the bar as a guerilla, called a bushwhacker up north, exit. He didn't wear blue or grey, just tattered brown leather from ankle to hat but his leather boots while muddy were mighty fine. The guerilla paused standing outside the door but stepped sideways facing someone and then the leatherman's footsteps went from strong to faint to gone as another entered the inn. The other wore all black like an undertaker, except for a red band around his hat, very sharp. He stood at the door, bright morning light illuminated his shadow, but kept it open and asked: "Is this Annie's inn?" The inn owner standing at the bar answered: "Yes I am Annie" Immediately cutting off Annie, the man at the door continued:"Was the town of Argentia here?" Annie paused and slowly answered: "yes" The man at the door remained still and slowly continued: "Where is the map?" Annie giggled and replied: "Stranger, me and Old Tom used to get at least one, morning, noon, and night, daily, askin that, and none were ever happy at our answer.... the last old Indian around here said the Silver Buffalo makes honey tracks" The man at the door didn't reply, and Annie said, facing Old Tom: "Don't I always tell them the truth" Old Tom confirmed with a head nod sideways while proclaimed in a high pitch tone:"mmmm hmmm, Miss Annie" Annie was about to continue speaking when the man at the door turned sharply plus uncaringly and exited the inn looking about. The Sweetbushes gave a blend of apple, lemon, black locus, wisteria and more in a sweet collage, unique or undeniable to a passerby or any within. The man who looked like an undertaker searched, whiffing, for a honied scent; he slowly got off the stand of the inn and faced a section of the sweet lush trees surrounding the inn; he peered into the green and walked with confidence forward; minutes went by, and in the forest he stopped under a tree, and the arbor smelled of honey with yellow petals; he smelled more and searched through the sweet collage; honeysuckle after honeysuckle he found and trekked onward, hoping at the end is a silver treasure unlike any other in sweet dense mountainous bush; on and on he went as the light changed that peered onto the wood from the sky , growing a darkness that would not hide the scents while opened the danger in a land of independent warfare; suddenly, while dusk light allowed only the top of the Sweetbush to be seen, he whiffed a foul odor, made from the undeniable purity of dead or decaying flesh from slaughter. The gossip said: in the Sweetbush live the... Silver Buffalo. The man in black used eagerness: to tear past sharp thorns, to trip over uneven muddy crevices; he breathed harder and harder, breathed in the dead of the Silver Buffalo close to where it rest, drowned out anything sweet except the image of a silver lair sparkling superior to any other before or since; finally he arrived, to a small clearing at the base of a low but wide mountain, at the front of a dark cave, illuminated by the dusk light surrounded by arborean darkness; the man was ready, his Holland & Holland double rifle had rounds able to kill an elephant with no question; he asked: where is it, where is the Silver Buffalo; he was falling, suddenly; his body felt hit by a bullet, and again; from where, he didn't hear a gunshot, didn't see a sign of smoke, and he finally fell face up to the sky; the blood leakage, the shock, his consciousness was all he could muster and while a darkness was enveloping his vision, he saw light; he though: Christ, no, the moon is still in the sky, a lamp; he thought he saw a black man speaking, but the blood was too wild or flooding to have heard properly; movement, the smell of his own blood blocked the smell of dead flesh, if that was the smell of where he was brought to; And, then he saw it, silver light, the lair of the Silver Buffalo it must be; he had a dying comfort until his head settled at mighty fine leather shoes while the lamp became distant and two figures became present; his failing cognizance may had seen a lamp holder and a rifle wielder, an air-gun; his final thoughts were ponderances: why, who murdered him in the sweetbushes of the Illinois county in 1860. ... Kassa finish plucking the mbira settled in the butt of his rifle and ask: "Did I earn my reales Pierre?" Pierre shuffling say:"I can't deny I like silver but it lacked the amount of action I prefer, what was the moral of this story" Julio chime in while Steinberg drink: "Greed will bring you down" "No": sharply reply Kassa:"... the search for the unknown provides unknown dangers" Kassa rise and head to the exit and the three former listeners continue their leisure, and start another game of cards. Eventually, Pierre, Steinberg, or Julio finish, and Julio, Steinberg, and Pierre left. With only one to never be seen again. Who knows why?

  13. MY COMMENT osted just now @Pioneer1 On 3/28/2026 at 12:26 PM, Pioneer1 said: We need more Black people....especially AfroAmericans....in leadership positions in the military. If this is OUR country....and it is @richardmurray.....then we need to be in leadership positions in all relevant branches of it. Unlike many Black nationalists and Pan-Africanists, I ENCOURAGE Black people to not only join law enforcement but the military also. Every branch. Rise as high as you can rise. The more power and rank we have in it, the more influence we have. Expand I will start with the honey and then the pot.... The Honey Well done, well done, I like when black people anywhere in humanity, think of new things, that is a form of nationalism. NAtionalism means a system of creation, making new. Pan -Africanism, which is about geography, not phenotype, which means it includes non black africans in that all encompassing view, for example mandela embraccing quadaffi as a fellow african liberator. quadaffi is not black, he is mulatto. but quadaffi is african. So, I haven't read anyoone else suggest that in this forum, and neither did I. I think becoming the majority leadership in the usa military all branches is a decent goal for Black DOSers in the USA. Why? Black DOSers in the usa have a financial problem, they will never have the fiscal background to compete with non blacks, especially whites, in the usa. Enslavement matters, financially, inheritance is not the primary way of gaining fiscal wealth for nothing. Our forebears who were enslaved and then handed freedom by whites, didn't have any fiscal inheritance to give nor had any uneven financial opportunities, as MLK jr said, so... this means, Black DOSers are simply financially slower than all others,because all others, even Black Immigrants have an external financial source, in the country they came from which is a huge advantage. you see this with any number, puerto ricans/jamaicans/nigerians/japanese/brasilians/// it doesn't matter, having a country outside the usa allows all other groups in the usa except the first peoples/native american to have a way to financially support themselves or manipulate their wealth safely frm the usa. the irish did with with ireland, the italians did it so famously with italy, it is a movie trope. Black DOSers don't have an external country. Most white americans are german americans, germany is a rich country which has a lot of financial possibilities to help them. Russia for russian americans. china for chinese americans... So, the government becomes very important for Black DOSers as a tool, history proves this. If it wasn't for the federal government, black people would be in the same fiscal situation we were in before the 1960s which was mostly enslaved to whites, through sharecropping with terrible contracts or imprisonment on multiple charges of light crimes. So... I even argue where are the Black members of the Party of Abraham Lincoln? This should be there platform? But, good idea. The Pot first,while an idea with a goal not done is a new thing, a nationalism, the us military is not something black nationalist can say is born from blacks, and is clearly not pan african. So you need to separate the goal from those two philosophies. I consider your idea integratory. It isn't nationalistic or pan african but that of an integrationist, which makes sense cause the usa has always been integrationist. Why? the usa has always been about some abusing others, to abuse another they have to be integrated to you. BUT to help another also requires integration. The good news is that outside your rhetoric around this issue, which needs polishing, the idea itself is a sound goal. The question is getting to that goal. Just on a leisure glance, one step to that process can be converting a historical black college into a military school. I can't recall any historical black college that is a military school. Why do you need military schools. Military schools serve an important function in making officers. Enlisted men take too long. HAving someone start off at the bottom of the officer core is essential in making their path higher easier. So, more will be needed, nothing is impossible, go for it. My strategic contributions are 1) get the Black Elephants/Party of Abraham Lincolm behind this. I think it fits them better than the Black Donkeys/PArty of Andrew Jackson. 2) convert a historical black college into a military school for officers , that is mandatory to grow an officer class that can achieve filling the top ranks of all branches of the usa military. You can not achieve your goal absent military schools, enlisted men no matter how many can not manifest the goal. The officers corp of most militaries will always be a club, it isn't a place you can run by earning your way in, you need to be a member from day one. In aMendment this will take time for your tribe in the village , but I Think your idea has legs. It will take time, but it is doable, and most importantly, has high functionality with the reality of black dosers. And... being even minded, even if the movement fails, it will create a stronger tribe of black people who fit your viewpoints : not entertainers, all have taken a public oath to the usa, though the military school enforces booker t washington's functional skills focus not scholarly focus of others, which is more hands on. DO IT! REFERRAL https://aalbc.com/tc/topic/12630-fired-former-pentagon-joint-chiefs-of-staff-new-job/#findComment-81018

  15. @Pioneer1 you didn't know the stageplay, the wiz:) the stageplay came out before the film, its popularity is why diana ross wanted the roll, berry dgordy warned her against it
  16. @ProfD Well... in the future if you go far ahead enough all places have another golden time plus a feces time, that is why of life. If you mean within fifty years , I don't think so. But I am glad you have this insider information that seems to be unknown to many people black or non black, so use it to gain fiscal wealth. well yes, especially in the last five hundred years, again, humanity has been around a while, so I resist speaking on all of human history, i prefer some temporal domains on any issue in my read of history most whites don't either. most humans simply do not,at least in my read of human history. I don't know the number of iranians murdered by usa +israel in the last two years, i know it is high, and i know that the seeds of great negativity are being born of it that will become something one day i repeat many soldiers on battlefields, with the most deadly weapons, trained every day, being shot at, are unable to use weapons, the presence of a weapon in your hands plus daily training plus your personal life threatened still doesn't equal automatic will to use weapons. the biggest problem in your allusion is the dysfunctional relationship between individuals and groups. The individual in an abusive relationship side another individual has a great difference between a group in an abusive relationship side another group. When George Stinney was unevenly incarcerated by white law enforcers, chaoticly and violently mobbed by white citizens, George Stinney's parents couldn't simply raise an army from the black populace. The black populace as a group isn't getting benefits, nor is the black populace as a group hoping and praying the abuse will stop, the black populace as a group doesn't have a group mechanism. A woman running from a man is not the same as a group of people running from another. Remember, in any two groups interaction you have individual interactions in all ways. During the time of George Stinney some black killed whites. It is about the mechanics of the group. And to that end, the black populace of the usa has had various internal mechanics, but at the moment, the black populace of the usa has arguably the weakest internal mechanics, but based on black individuals who have chosen to influence the larger group that way. And the non black, specifically old white populace has the same problem today. The reality is, in the 1900s the white populace in the usa became internally multiracial, like the black. So the 2026 white populace has a more complex internal mechanics than in 1960s, or mid nineteen hundreds or earlier and many whites in the usa, especially the old whites, are having problems comprehending the change in internal mechanics of the white populace, cause it was never like this before. the usa produced the most innovation , I don't know about that. the first satellite was russian/soviet the first system to have a human being in space was russian soviet the first integrated computer was english the fastest submarine is russian/soviet , using liquid metal heated by the engine the fastest torpedo is soviet using supercavitation the only domestic use of nuclear power engines is russian/soviet- these are ships that break ice circa north pole the first rockets or jet fighters are german the earliest airships or dirigibles are french/german the best dam building is from russia/soviets the mapping of the genome was an international effort, it wasn't one country first printed circuit boards were german first electronic watch was swiss the first electronic watch with peizoelectric was nippon/japan we all know about benz from germany and the single stroke engine, his poor wife. Everyone knows the usa never produced better weapons than germany during the second white european imperial war, but the usa , like china which is interesting historically, are both big copiers and mass producers. Innovation, new things, the usa isn't a big new things country.Other countries tend to do that more during the usa's two hundred and fifty years. Most technologies their source isn't the usa. The usa did make the television. But the one innovation the usa did make that truly warrants note, through ford, was the assembly line. And it is interesting cause the concept of the assembly line is about the goal of mass production. An assembly line can have a bunch of human beings with torches, but the key to technological changes, polishings, is the assembly line pushes mass production which is truly usa and something that china has grabbed onto as a concept in light of the usa. Crafting from ancient times was never a mass produced idea, the idea is to make something efficient, long lasting, but the assembly line idea busted through that concept. In parallel, when I look at soviet russia, arguably the problem with soviet russia is that it truly adopted the german technological heritage from the weimar district of efficient innovation, the ancient human heritage of quality craft. The usa created the modern culture of hype schools, the ivy leagues. In the usa you say you go to a school or work for a firm and the hype of that is superior to the quality of a place. In germany , demerit is real, failure leads to demerit. but in the usa, one can exist above demerit. You see this with Schrumpft, he epitomizes that statian heritage in government. Wheras in germany in weimar, the idea was effectiveness. As I said to you before, the usa's greatest two aspects is : one break away from the british and two, the culture of advertisement from the declaration of independence through the radio, the usa didn't create radio, through television, through the internet [the usa did create the protocols used by most today, but not the internet itself, the internet is really a web of webs of various protocols made by various groups or organizations, the usa through its advertising skill got most to fall in line to it] the usa is a master of selling ideas, not the truth, but selling ideas, getting people to buy into them, prosyletization [ which I can't stand but there you have it] . If you look deep alot of technologies were not from the usa but the usa mass manufactured, that fiscal capitalistic power made sure the usa profited financially from it, but that ins't innovation. Just because someone makes money off a thing doesn't mean they thought of it. And to black folks, people will say george washington carver was american but Percy Julian proves black engineers in days past didn't see themselves as american, not honestly. You say things in public, but do you really believe. As james baldwin said, very honestly, which is rare for most in the public eye, I paraphrase, his father never hurt whites one bit, but his father hated whites to the pit of his soul. We talk about black parenting and why it was so harsh but black parents weren't happy. I think we as descendents of black parents of mid to late eighteen hundreds to mid nineteen hundreds , as per the usa's influence, have created an advertisement campaign to ourselves, lying about our forebears to make our choices seem better. @Pioneer1 glad you are enjoying yourself @Mel Hopkins Also you can stream TubiTV. A lot of our creative work, films, tv series, documentaries are airlng on Tubi and the creators also get paid. (I don't know how much though) you don't need to sign in either all you need is a browser and internet connection. BUT Tubi is owned by Rupert Murdoch. have you seen this? I am going to apply, working on my screenplay will you take part? if not at least share https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/668-tubi-x-blacklist-horror-initiative-2026-challenge-final-day/ @Pioneer1 yeah , good financial pint, but financially, you have to embrace the truth that no poor peoples ever did anything in the usa. here is the problem, from 1865 to 1980 the Jim crow era, you had a change in the culture of the wealthy, the gilded age was late 1800s , and i argue for blacks the gilded age was early 1900s with madame cj walker, what do most fiscally wealthy people have in common from late 1800s to 1920s... by the time of the first white european imperial war the body of wealthy people in the usa went through a huge change. alot of the fiscally poor people, black or non black or other , in the late 1800s actually grew up fiscally poor, so when they chose to help they were serious because they were actually poor at one time in their life, but their children and grandchildren weren't them. and after what carnegie did, many of the children of the gilded, engineered wealth and money making to be a very inherited things. If you look at most wealthy people today in the black populace for example, it is like whites, mostly inheritors. In the 1960s black people with money were mostly people born financially poor who made it rich but now, inheritors is ninety percent like with all demographics or peoples in the usa, What is my point? The people with money in a community are always the financial leaders and in absence it is tough. I can take nyc, the financial center of white jews/irish/italians and all three have their mobs to thank for everything. what are mobs ? financially wealthy organizations involved in illegal activities, run by people mostly grew up poor. When the italians/white jews/irish folk wanted to go legal they still used illegal money to make it happen. So, you need the big money folk. To that end, everyday I see black millionaires and billionaires investing in white enterprises. they are not blind, they know the black populace has needs, so if they are unwilling to use their money to support he black populace, then they simply are. Again, how many black people from the 1960s to today paid for a black person to go to a non historical black college? that is arguably billions of dollars mostly given to non black colleges? black colleges are arguably the oldest non religious /secular black organizations in the united states of america, so... no excuse for lack of heritage. I comprehend your greater point but you need to really eye the black fiscal wealthy for that lacking. And if for no other reason, fiscal honesty. that jewish art gallery, where you get your money from, the loans, the local bank? feces,you had some rich white jew help you, through the synagoge. that italian construction company, where you get the commissions? on merit, feces, you had connections with your cousin in the mob. I don't think any shame exist getting help, but for some reason, maybe @ProfD can answer, people in the usa have a huge problem being honest when it comes to who helped them out financially. They seem ashamed to say it is a mob or a financial friend in some form? why be ashamed? the usa has never been place where the public way leads to anything. Women in the usa who have big houses and sent all their kids to school talk about how they worked hard... you got a financial stipend from a man who abused you worth millions of dollars. You married a billionaire forty years your senior. I am not criminalizing, but too many in the usa who have wealth are very ashamed of their history of financial transactions. How many black people started businesses with fbi/cia money? when they gave them cash to sell out black people and they used that to start businesses, support their kids? why can't they say? what are they ashamed of? whites in the usa who got money from their great uncle who runs a private prison which has been in operation since the late 1800s, a family treasure. not paying encarcerated people while they took all the money and skimmed for road building. If more people in the usa would admit the truth of their financial transactions especially in financing, that would push people to embrace fiscally wealthy people being responsible for not investing in things. Stop telling fiscally poor people about their pennies. @Mel Hopkins every group barely has newspapers, should black people be that financially other? again, in NYC, i see lot of newspaper gravesites. is it up to blacks to go against financial trends in a country where we are not the majority populace? @Pioneer1 It isn't crazy, why do you say it is crazy? every fiscal firm has numerical realities. paper cost money, reporters cost money [cost of living/extra wage/competitive wage influence], shipping newspapers cost money. Can you get advertising for your newspaper? the village voice is gone, that was a public newspaper, the reason was simple, it was unaffordable, even with adveritisng the adult /erotic/similar stuff, they couldn't afford their cost of operation. Your saying its crazy black people don't have newspapers like clearly if I started a newspaper right now in debt, the debt would be covered in a month. I think newspapers are a negative business. First,the two methods of getting money are thin now: subscriptions + advertisements. Subscriptions are tough cause across the demographic board in the usa, so not just black people, people don't read long form. or paper based communication. many newspapers have tried online but again, a website isn't free to host, a website cost money to maintain and overtime only increase. Advertising is tough cause advertisers have metrics, in the past or today, they know what people aren't viewing/being influenced by, so why should a firm advertise. Look at the amsterdam news in NYC. it is fortunate. It has a black wealthy populace in NYC, specifically manhattan that is old, has a heritage of support for the amsterdam news. Most black newspapers don't have a fiscally wealthy black minority in the black populace of the city they are in like the Amsterdam News. And I know you well enough that you always want to fall on the fiscally poor only using black newspapers to keep them alive but... I can't tell what would reading the amsterdam news really give back to the fiscal black poor of nyc if they were to each invest per month or two weeks into the amsterdam news.

  19. @ProfD based on the first peoples heritage, lifestyle , the answer is no. but white europeans publicly admitted they came to destroy the native american no to improve anything concerning the native american so... life is balance, a country started by takers is itself took. White immigration is older than the usa, like so many things about the usa , the usa's birth didn't start any oof it. that immigration heritage didn't start in 1776 but started in 1492. The blood feud between whites and blacks didn't start in 1776 but started in 1492. Yes the usa has technology had many eras from 1776 to 2026. But, in terms of the people, the heritage, the culture, the usa is in my mind, only a little different than the white european colonies. Again JAmes Forten was a black man who owned a business in the english colonies and afterward with the creation of the usa but the black 1% has always existed. So... the meat and potatoes of the usa are older than the usa. a foothold, what stopped them these past fifty odd years, what defines a foothold? and who are these investors exactly? well, did one white man enslave black people or did white people enslave black people. From my reading of history this was group activities not singular individuals so... The question is what are blacks going to do and if very few blacks are willing to come together and do then their resides the reason for the , pool or negativity. Not all problems are individual based. One person can't handle the humans responsible. And for the record, just to make sure in case any read this, i never said my plans to the future include mass genocide. My point is that many black people want that, but they don't have the courage for that. And I will not criminalize them because many people don't have the stomach for killing. And soldiers will tell you, with all the training and sergeants yelling and speeches, many soldiers are cowards. In movie land, every soldier is looking to fight but anyone who knows anything about war knows all armies are full of cowards, masquerading behind a gun. So, I will not chagrin unarmed black people from not having the courage to be violent, again the ira was only 300 people in an island with millions of irish, i am not expecting a mass violent uprising from black dosers in the usa, nor do I plan for that, but I am also honest enogh to admit many black people quietly, hate whites and this country , and it is a strong heritage, which leads to a desire to not involve in this country or with its whites. And sadly, it also leads to a potent place of despair. many alternatives or other paths, as DOSers are the proof 1) Not all DOSers view whites of the usa as the enemy, again James forten. So your question misses the blacks who don't view whites as the enemy in the first place, and infinite paths come from this. 2) To those too cowardly, for whatever reason [and many reasons exists for not killing, not merely fear of killing] infinite paths exist, the following are some. I) live peacefully with the enemy. and this takes many forms, as DOSers show. II) find a land absent the enemy, and this can take you anywhere, as DOSers show. Well , some parents care for their children wisely, not all. and some parents don't care for their children wisely. As an artists, someone in an art community one said that Disney is needed for kids to have something positive. We were discussing the lack of complex relations in disney stories. and, thinking on a thought i had communicating with you about the USA having only two aspects of itself 1) splitting from the english empire 2) the perception of usa eternity. I realize thinking on parents in the usa, I was incorrect. 2 ) is media weapons. The USA has a level of media unlike any country. The declaration of independence is an advertisement to a fake product. But when I extend beyond that I see, the firms or peoples of the USA are also heavy media folk. The daughters of the american revolution worked to get a fals emedia narrative as truth, to this day, many people of all phenotypes still adhere to the pfaux history that the daughters of the american revolution created. But it extends to many. Immigrant parents. How many immigrant parents have i heard say, they love the usa. A lie. They don't love the usa, they were desperate for financial betterment and went to the best place to get it with the least effort. Black DOSers, if I hear one more black doser talk about forebears wanting to be Statian of the usa, i will eat my own gizzard. Another lie. And the funny thing is , any research into black art 1865 proves black people were very anti usa + white . but headed by the damn black church, this myth of desired americanism came about so much so that most black people in the usa today, act in concert to that lie. And thus to Disney, Disney comprehended the majority of people in the usa, the customers, like to lie and lie to others and be lied to, and the internet proves this. the internet as it is today is a usa creation and it proves the character of the majority in the usa gardless of phenotype/gender or any racial category. The fables that disney took came from germany, a country that has its many biases but tends to actually be more honest. From martin luther who couldn't stand the commercialization of the medici popes, the nazis who never said they were interested in world peace or making peace, the nazis for all of their violence or criminal behavior never lied about their intentions to others. they lied to themselves about their own infallicy, and it is interesting how the whites of the usa was the nazis primary mimick of style, learn lies from the biggest liar, but the nazi's still retained a level of german honesty. So yeah, thank you profd, the usa has two elements from itself 1) breaking away from england 2) media weaponry culture but the individualism/fiscal capitalism/multiracialism/immigration/regional infighting heritages or cultures were actually started by the english in the colonial era, not of the usa. and I argue haven't changed much since then. Technology changing is a human thing, that has nothing to do with any country, that is human.
  20. @ProfD but the issue we are discussing is what people deem as wins, what is accomplishment? is accomplishment what you say it , what i say it is? I argue the definition to wins or accomplishments changes twixt individuals or groups and so it is challenging to apply standards of wins/accomplishment between individuals or groups. and to the point you raised, not all white folks are trying to kick them out... this goes back to Monrovia ... many whites did support blacks leaving but most supported blacks staying in the usa in perpetuity as enslaved, so much so making the happy slave myth to make themselves feel better even point. I comprehend your viewpoint 100% the problem for the usa is it was founded by takers, if you consider the native american heritages and cultures, the usa was founded by takers, who adding nothing positive to what was in existence.. so the usa has a heritage of willing immigrants mostly adding nothing except negativities, with only a minority adding positives to the current situation. Chaos starters if you look at the settlers in palestinean lands, that is all they do... they don't grow anything, they definitely don't add to peace so... When israel first started it had a huge zionist movement, but I argue, that the majority of white jews or even jews in humanity where anti zionist from a personal level, meaning they support the existence of israel but never want to live there. I shared in this forum somewhere the reform jewish numbers. most jews are not orthodox are not looking to go to israel. but many give money/ support to keep it afloat. so... the people who tend to go there ... are a rarer type. Israel has many issues but again, it was started chaotically, so I don't see why it having a chaotic life isn't expected. nature says nothing is ever totally true true and to that end, that is also the problem , the usa isn't a small town, it is a country of three hundred and fifty million people who are in dissimilar environments. A solid thirty percent of black people in the usa and I argue fifty percent of Black DOSers live in small black towns where their financial life is very challenging from non black influences. I don't live in that exact environment and yet their are the financially affluent black regions of Los Angeles or NYC or Atlanta where everyone black is millionaire or better. so... yes, the us has different places , different financial environments , always has, and they don't relate. So when the usa is spoken of in one way, because a person lives in one particular place is that reflective of the usa? no, it is reflective of a particular place in the usa. That is not the same. Ahh yes and that is a very statian turn of phrase. you see, life is even, life is beautiful. nature is even, nature is beautiful. And, life isn't fair/white nor is it schartz/black, nature as well isn't fair or schwartz. Human beings manipulate life into uneveness. manipulate life into being fair or schwartz. IT isn't life that brings negative or positive obstacles in humans lives, it is other humans. Those who confuse human actions as life is the great dysfunction, this goes back to NAt Turner, Jean JAcques Dessalines, the IRA, what they are saying is Blacks folks problems aren't life but whites or Irish peoples problems aren't life but English. Kill the whites, kill the english and life becomes its natural neutral state. The problem is humans are not fools inside, they can tell themselves that life isn't even, but they know the truth is life is even, it is other humans making their lives uneven that they need to change and the best way to do that isn't to play games with the humans that are making their lives uneven but to kill those humans making their lives uneven , and in face with that truth, many humans lament, the lie they were raised with. I have seen this , as a tutor, I have seen black parents say such things with my own eyes and I have refuted them to black children in their presence. It isn't life that is hard, your not broke/you don't have opportunities or resources because nature/earth/life used ocean water and made a huge tide and grabbed our forebears off the land and carried our forebears in a bubble to other lands. Your challenges are white made, not life made. Existence is always even, always beautiful and never white/fair nor black/schwartz So admit the humans that are truly behind your woes which your parents know is true, but are lying to you because they themselves have never faced the true source of their own woes, which is whites. And I will defend the pond of helplessness. It is no accident that the IRA was only three hundred people , it is no accident that Black DOSers in what became Haiti alone made a country for DOSers in the American continent. The helpness comes because of another truth, all humans know humans are the ones that make life imabalnced, it is never life itself, life is always trying to reach balance. Life is never trying to be white or black or uneven in any way. So that means some humans have to be taken out but most don't have the courage for that. And this is what Zen meant. People think Zen means the person who does nothing amidst the chaos but misses that isn't Zen, what Zen says is that any action is acceptible in nature. What this means isn't that one must exist within chaos, what it means is any action, no matter how violent isn't a sin, isn't a negative, isn't anything to be afraid of. And that wisdom is what most parents,,, sadfully, don't convey to their children or are too afraid to face themselves.
  21. @ProfD I remember listening to an immigrant to the usa, who is homeless, a mexican or mesitzo from somewhere in latin america. He flat out said, his goal was to get in the usa... so for many immigrants, not all, but many they win by merely being in the usa, as the accomplishment, even if they are only squatting. And that is their choice but there you have it, to answer the question of accomplishment. This is why comparing wins is hard, because one person's win is not another person's win. Yes... with the addition that again, some people leave with no need to make the destination country better, as muc has the destination country has what they are looking for. When you look at israel, many jews go to israel to simply be among jews, it is not to be rich or produce as you say or "make it better" as much as the environment is satisfactory for them, the win is the move , but moving takes time, it isn't magic. And you can't force it through hard work. my forebears worked very hard and often got nothing of what they wanted because hard work still requires opportunity and if you don't opportunity, you don't. and without violence, peace blockades some forms of opportunity. yes with the addition that the quantity of black people getting what they want, I will call that successful, is far less based on non black potency because blacks are abused at no fault of their own by whites. When competition isn't even, when it has criminal actions that is highly manipulative, especially in the financial realm. I know you see the USA as a place that allows any individual to succeed but I don't think that is financially true. To rephrase, negative unmerited blockades or abuses are applied to people in the usa which means individuals don't have the ability to succeed. Athletes are the best examples. A black baseball played , playing today admitted in the players journal, if it wasn't for my community in some area of florida, placing themselves in debt he wouldn't had made it as a baseball player. That is not an environment for all to succeed, that is called an environment of failure. and this is the key variance, in your mind, effort overcomes environment. The numbers show, effort never overcomes environment. A negative financial environment defined as an environment designed to hinder financial positive movement, succeeds in majority in the usa historically, all phenotypes. IT isn't that effort overcame environment as much as environment, which in the financial sense is a human construct can not be designed perfectly/a complete work, and the environment ALLOWS a percentage of those in it to succeed which happens. You and others think it is effort overcoming the negativities of the environment when in truth it is the system merely allowing success for a minority. Which is the USA way.
  22. @aka Contrarian yes she did:) with the grand dames:) did you get to see a show? @Pioneer1 yes Stephanie mills is tiny, and so was judy garland who was another dorothy
  23. @ProfD thank you @Pioneer1 thank you any potential laws @frankster @aka Contrarian @admin?
  24. @ProfD well... I see, When you speak about leaving an under developed home country to struggle in another country, i think of the conquistador i think of the white european imperial era through france/spain/portugal/netherlands Of the european powers, the only one that built countries as you said were the english, it wasn't really the common way. all the others only wanted to extract resources and leave a set of mixed breeds to manage things to funnel money into whatever european center country. Spain and france and portugal famously had to pay white women to go while the english... was able to et whole communities to go. In the end of the day, the english didn't do it for the building of countries. The english pushed their colonies to be pan white, multiwhite, individualist, not to become the usa or canada or austrailia one day, but to be a haven to make money. Remember the english colonies were not profitable in the international market compared to any of the others. the money in the english colonies was actually in the english colonies spending money. BEcause the english colonies actually invited hordes of white europeans they were given a financial status, that the non white european majority populaces in the non english colonies couldn't get, so the first industry of the usa was as a market place, not because it was special but because it became the first true white european country outsdie europe. Essentailly english goods had a controlled marketplace for tea/furniture and other english content. That was the financial purpose of the usa. its external traffic was not its main finanial agenda. for england. well first, for DOSers if you don't view a country as your home country then their is nothing to build up. Again some blacks liek james forten, start business fight and die , having chose the usa as ther home but then they ask questions like you to other black people who havent decided the usa is their home. You use the word prevention but you have to first view the usa as your home, brasil as you rhome, india as your home... before you can act like it is . Black pople are descended of enslaved folk, i argue in our heart, we aren't interested in being black versions of white europeans. yes, cases exist but on average, we have a vengeanful desire but not a enslavement desire. yes the caribs are black native americans, like the negrito black asians. Non verbal action always speaks louder than words. But I get the logic, if you focus on building no matter how many times another burns your house down, you may never realize that you need to stop building where you are cause the place you are is crap. no the first question s what is the definition of winning because the definition of winning dictates what is needed to win, and not all definitions of winning are the same, especially for DOSer. One black person can say they have won and mean nothing to another black person cause they dont share the same meaning of winning. I didn't question possibility, i said the pwoer of will and desire, this one instance doesnt prove will and desire, it proves circumstance, @Pioneer1 I suggest we, meaning black people anywhere on earth, each discover or learn who we are as individuals and who we want to be as part of black groups and then relate that to wherever we live. Yes, it isn't as simple as all others in humanity, but it gives us a freedom of identity. Black DOSers who embrace the usa as their home. need to accept the truth of fiscal capitalism when it comes to legal or illegal financial activity. The great fort nes in fiscal capitalism come in majority through criminal activity.whether that criminal activity is legally noted or not. Second to comprehend the financial limits of being in a multiracial scoiety where all races are free to grow, it means financial control over others is always going to be limited long term
