  2. hahaha @ProfD Lauryn hill is wearing a style, you never seen that?
  3. @ProfD after reading the original post and then reading some of the comments, I know i always drag multilogs back into the realm of history but , the one thing not one person in her commented is the financial fact, that the black populace in the usa has never been on the same financial footing as whites. Everyone black knows this. But, I don't think most black people seem to accept what that means financially, not historically, not communally or personally, but strictly financially. if 90% of wealth in the usa is inherited then 90% of white wealth in the usa is inherited from white murderers of first peoples in the modern usa + white enslavers of black peoples who started before the usa existed, in the european colonies. But here is the parallel, 90% of black wealth in the usa is inherited from black laborers (farmers/entertainers/government officials/teachers)+ black business owners after circa 1865 when the war between the states ended. The variance in the origin of black wealth in the usa in comparison to white wealth in usa is not only temporal but in tone. Violent(violent business ownership [taking land or enslaving other human beings]) based fiscal capitalism is always more robust than nonviolent(paid labor/non violent business ownership) based fiscal capitalism. And if you add the time difference the older violent based fiscal capitalism is more robust than the younger nonviolent based fiscal capitalism by exponential factors. I am not certain all black people in the usa accept this financial reality based on the comments or original post.

  23. @Troy I didn't even see a notification of a comment on the creative table
  24. @ProfD yes question, has anyone divulged the percentage of annual revenue to the boycotted firms that actually comes from black people? I don't want to sound simple or crude but if black people in the usa don't provide at least ten percent of any of those firms annual revenue , then I don't see how a lifelong boycott will do much damage 90% is not small enough to warrant change.
