LOL! Me too. I am just learning about it now, in this thread. So, thank you @ProfD for posting. I may have seen a brief clip but I did not see any big news report at all!

LOL! I have never understood the victimhood perspective! I've heard people say things like, I am not going to be the victim anymore, etc., but I just do not understand that position in many circumstances. For instance, there have been many people that have been wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for years and then later due to such evidences as DNA testing, released from prison, and I ask myself, 'SHOULD THEY TAKE THAT POSITION OF NOT PLAYING THE VICTIM ANYMORE!?' This just sounds crazy to me because in this case, they have certainly been victimized severely. For them, it's not playing the victim, rather, they are the victim and this should be acknowledged and deserve some kind of recompense. In other words, if the law just simply released them from prison, and gave them no economic recompense and more, then that would be wrong.

I agree with all that you've said! I do understand though what Jermomex is saying too about the influence of the White culture in both of them. I also think too though that Kamala Harris is being attacked because of her being a Black woman, not that she has an Indian mother. If she was purely from India and had no 'Black', I do not believe she would be attacked in this way. THANK YOU!!!

THIS IS NOT AN EVERYDAY DRESS! But it certainly is NUEVO & TRES CHIC! It definitely became a viral video. I believe the designer is African and the company is called, 'Fabulous Lifestyle by Jenny' This designer has many other beautiful designs, but this one is getting a lot of attention, probably because of the curvacious bride that is in the dress too! STUNNING! But this is just my opinion and a lot others posters too.

I was too busy being a Mom in the 90s. But when I think of earlier decades, Phillip Baily comes to mind for me.

LOL. I had not even considered her becoming President of the United States until now! What a thought! I do think it might happen.

Ok @Pioneer1 But truth be told LOL, I was aiming at someone else but I can see that toxic idiot has not been around lately. Don't worry about trying to convince me, as long as the discussion lifts up the Black Plight, it's all good.

Summer is Rotating Away & Autumn is Coming--Wondering About the Upcoming Styles Let's Check Out the Catwalk! Well, I think these are some trying times. Sometimes I don't even want to watch the news, but with the way technology today is, it's hard to ignore it. I many times check my smartphone with one focus and then get distracted and then I'm watching crazy stuff that I never intended. Just today, I read that President Biden gave a serious warning for Americans to get out of Belarus! It seems that the Russians have moved in some nuclear weapons into that region. At any rate, sometimes, I feel that we humans should enjoy our existence sometimes! So then, what are some wonderful things that could spice up life in these upcoming days. Thank God, the kids are back in school! For me, that can be a good thing and a bad thing. As an educator, I am cautioned about being in an environment still with the threat of COVID and also, there is so much negativity going on with the school curriculum nowadays, so how does an educatior navigate that issue successfully and not get called down!? But then, for me, I love to hear from the youth because IMO, they are the future and bring ideas into the world that are so beneficial. In their innocence, in many ways, they bring so much love and hope. Of course, there are the many little ones that suffer because they do not have enough support but then, that too is another reason why I love being there for them. At any rate, I thought that these short videos of THE CATWALK--literally!-- reminded me to look out for the new and upcoming fashion trends of the day! If I come across any new fashion trends, I hope to come back and post them here! Do All the Pretty Girls Dress Like This? ALL THE PRETTY GIRLS WALK LIKE THIS! BEST CATWALK OF DSQUARED2 2024 Old School BEST CAT WALK--Tyra! Dubbed 'the Queen of the Catwalk'--Naomi!

That's what I'm talking about Girlfriend! Keep on living large @Cynique.

Well, I have mixed feelings about this topic. I believe that ADOS need to think about the main focus of this government on the basis that it formed about 400 years ago and their major goal. I believe that the leaders that formed this union and their theme is ever present in the minds of White Americans today even for some of them that pretend to care about what happened to us. They decided way back then that it was vital to keep us [1] ignorant [uneducated to a great extent], [2] continually oppressed, and [3] divided [fostering Black Hatred continually] and believed that this would be the only way that they could keep the power and White dominant government that they began to form since the AD 1500s in Europe as they were flocking over to their NEW WORLD. For this reason, they don't see giving federal aid to the programs like ESL to the hispanic people and so many other immigrants and White Americans because they don't threaten their power. But ADOS!!!--Oh I believe that they think we are a threat to their national security and global power. So even though some streamline our oppression here by saying that we've only been oppressed for 160 years or 260 years, NO WAY, America still has continually caused us to be oppressed in their prison systems and in more ways. There is always something, some conflict aimed against us, such as the man in Florida with his educational curriculum, CRT propaganda, now the Arkansas AP agenda, LBGT+ agenda to give federal funds for them to have jobs if they write on their application in such manner, etc. I think these issues are deliberately raised to keep us fighting in so many directions that we cannot get any adequate governmental relief as a result of the Chattel Slavery Movement. Obviously, this long time period of human sacrifice did not only affect our ancestors, but it affects us today, but will we benefit from a monetary REPARATIONS due to the issues that have caused us to be so divided and ignorant of how to economically benefit? H*ll no, IMO, if we don't have a GROUP MENTALITY to where the funds are aimed at helping us as a group, then individuals would spend the money in ways that would not really advance us. So IMO, it would not work hypothetically, however, it would be insane and suicidal not to demand that America gives us Reparations. I believe that the demand for Reparations from this government is more than just expecting them to do the right thing and make a federal attempt to right a great evil, but it may lead to a solution eventually. I mean really; how can giving me money help my dead great grandmother who was raped at the age of about seven, lived her whole life without recompense and then die in poverty? Human Sacrifice on that level cannot be repaired at all, but am I affected by what happened to her!? LOL... How about giving me reparations for stealing my children on false allegations and a malicious attack that split up my family, and then after three years of sifting me like wheat, and having to drop all of the false allegations, causing me to be poor having to spend thousands of dollars to get a trial to prove innocence and get my children back? Let's not even talk about my ancestor!!! You d*mn skippy I am affected by the same government that destroyed her life. smh. I ABSOLUTELY DID NOT PLAN TO WRITE THIS MUCH.

ANOTHER COUPLE SHARE This couple's title is called MESSING WITH THE MARTINS I thought these two short sketches were hilarious. It could be a good 'couple therapy' session to watch. For anyone who has been married and/or remembers the early years of their marriage, these sketches might remind you of similar conflicts. I know it did for me. I absolutely remember a few times when I was preparing to step out with some of my girlfriends and my sorors in the early days, right after I had my first baby, and was completely SHOCKED when my husband confronted me! He was like, not happy at all! I was like, YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME! And then he had the nerve to flip the script ... This first sketch, I am going to give a spoiler because I showed it to my husband a couple of times before he realized that the actual DUDE was his wife! She worked it out!

LOL @Pioneer1 I never said that any black perosn was primitive! That is crazy! My Great grandfather is from India as I've shared in this community! I have his Death Certificate My son's ancestry DNA also confirms this!!! No, Dark skinned people from India are not a separate 'race of humans'! They all originate OUT OF AFRICA!!! They all originate from one male individual ANATOMICALLY STRIAGHT YDNA Haplogroup from AFrica. No primitive Black humans exist today. All modern humans today stem from ONE AFRICAN MALE ORIGIN. The only genetic presence of primitive humans stem from Neanderthals and they are not Black at all. Their origins were from BLACK PRIMITIVE HUMANS but those Black humans had long been extinct prior to the presence of modern humans. You are refuting me even though I have a degree in this area of study. smh.

@Pioneer1 You completely disregarded the fact that Farrakhan retracted his statement. You completely ignored the updated reference I posted in that Farrakhan stated that Adam and Eve are THE FIRST HUMAN COUPLE on earth and that all White people come from him, Black Adam origins. The picture of the Indians you posted are still linked to the same genetics as all modern humans. If you care about your Black Brothers, then you will stop being arrogant and stating White Supremacist beliefs about White human origins not having any link to Black Africa. As I stated before, regarding the priesthood, you Black men all have to agree on the truth if you want to be part of THE NEW WORLD in the Second Coming. It's like a military judgment, if one does not support the truth then all of the group will be rejected. As in the story of Achan, he stole the pagan robe and hid it, and then the Israelites began to be killed until they searched and found out what Achan did. Then they stoned his azz and afterwards, they began to win the war. Farrakhan makes it clear that all White men come from Black origins. You're statement about Pre-Adamites are partly true in that prior to the creation of Adam, there were primitive beings, but they were not black at the time that modern humans became present. Neanderthals were not Black at all. prior to Neanderthals, science and genetics does prove that there were many Black and dark skinned humans but they are all extinct. There are no genetic markers in any humans today that show the presence of those dark skinned primitive black humans. They are completely gone. The genetics that does reveal the presence of a distinct dark primitive humans are linked to Neanderthals are from genetic material that does show that their origins are from dark primitive humans today called Denisovans. Denisovan bones were found in a cave where a hermit named Denis lived. So, scientist confirm that Neanderthals came from an earlier dark primitive humans because of those bones found in that cave. @Pioneer1You refute @Troy too, I know this, but I think that you are especially arrogant with me because I am a female contributing to this subject. LOL.

LOL @Pioneer1 YES HE DID! Minister Farrakhan definitely said this! And he said it on video. OH! Wait a minute! I might be wrong! I think he said it about Faard[?] So yes, you are right, it wasn't about Minister Elijah Muhammad, but it was another leader. I am very sorry about that. It just hit me as I was typing! And as far as what Minister Farrakhan said, he definitely said that the first human family was Adam and were Black. He says this many times. So he is definitely referring to the Bible. He speaks about how Black people have been deceived. I think the Black Church is in trouble too, because they push this White Jesus philosophy and most Black Churches have a depiciton of Jesus as a White man. We've been decieved by the Slave teachings but there is no excuse today, for the Black Church because they can read the scriptures for themselves. Okay, about what you've said about White people coming from a unique and separate Black people, again, that is absolutely wrong. Again, all genetics of males on this earth are 99.99% proven to stem from one individual, an AFrican male. There is no such independent 'race' of black people who come from another kind of ancient Blacks. The primitive Black and/or dark skinned people are completely extinct. There are absolutely no genetic markers today in any human that links to those black primitive humans with exception of Neanderthals. Neandethals and Denisovans share a MRCA link that is in their genes extracted from their bones. But outside of that, so far, the bones left behind of the earlier dark skinned primitive humans have no genetic material that is shared with any modern humans. They were completely extinct for thousands of years and did not even exist when the Neanderthals existed on this earth. Scientist say that for 500,000 years, the Neanderthals were the only huminids that existed until modern mankind became present! That is what is displayed in the Smithsonian. And as far as being obsessed with White people, I do agree with you in that it is important to know about their actions against Black people. I do agree that we should be focused on their secret hate groups but when it manifest to the point where hate crimes are committed.

You are completely rejecting the actual reference in what Farrakhan said and what science and genetics have proven in that all modern humans come from a Black man. LOL. Farrakhan also said that Elijah Muhammad came from a White woman and that is a great division in the nation! White scientist admitted this and all national science organization admit this, yet @Pioneer1 you still want to believe that White males do NOT come from Black African male. That is insane. You give White power too much credit over Black freedom of which is prophesize to come. I never said that White Supremacist have no power. You are putting out a complete false statement.

@Pioneer1 The two videos that I told you that came up on my channel has been deleted for some strange reason. But this is one I found that addresses the recent stance of Minister Louis Farrakhan.

Ha! @ProfD Never thought about it from this angle! When I think of the earlier forms of unique dance talent and line dancing, I thought about the Temptations. I loved the movie and remembered that they were one of the earlier groups that made up their unique style of dance when they performed. Really!? I had no idea! I remember my neices in how they love Usher, but I never paid much attention to any of them. But I hear about Beyonce all of the time and never knew she was known for dancing. So, since you said this, I did a little research! Yes, I was surprised to see this! Although Beyonce seems to me to be dancing in a strip joint kind of style, LOL, she can dance! But, I hope to share a sista from my day that I think really shows 'the moves'! Anyway, I am posting some moves of the three you mentioned, here. Yeah, I had no idea that Usher and Chris Brown could also dance!

I had been thinking about you because I remembered that your birthday was in the month of August. You look amazing! I hope that you had a great birthday!

This is ridiculous. Why would you give White folks credit for Black civilizations? Why would you give White folks credit for Black power? The authority you have given them and in the same way some of our ancestors did too, is the reason why we are in this mess! LOL Who in the Hell welcomed them into Africa and gave them authority!? Yes, since this has happened we need to always acknowledge this reality of White domination on the basis of Colorism, but to believe that they had anything to do with the set up of Black African civilizations is just completely the reality of the kind of Black people that are indeed 'White Supremacist' in their beliefs. To believe that White people had anything to do with early script is just insane. You know you always talk about how we need to all agree, those of us who want to be free of Black people that are not productive, then, what you are saying now, does not help in that cause. Jesus says the same thing too and he will give mankind a thousand years to do it. He says that we must all agree on what is truth. For those that do not agree on what is truth will cause the others to become vulnerable for oppression all over again. THEY CAME FROM THE EAST and infiltrated Black civilizations and then and only then did Black people began to enslave each other and hate each other over issues of Colorism and WS. Wake up @Pioneer1!!! Stop giving White Supremacist credit for things they did not have anything to do with.

LOL! @Pioneer1 has NO REFERENCES on this subject and believes that you White people are Caucasians that lived in caves and ate raw meat! There is no Biblical or scientific basis for this in that White Caucasian people are the only distinct primitive cave dwellers. Scientist find that the DENOSOVANS were also cave dwellers and they were brown and dark skinned primitive humans. The ancient scriptures are out of Africa, written by Africans. White people had NO SCRIPT when Moses wrote the Pentatuch! Egyptian script is out of northeast Africa and from Sumeria. Prior to Adam, there were NO ANATOMICALLY STRAIGHT YDNA HAPLOGROUPS. Still today, there is no proof of that. All male haplogroups come out of the basal-a Haplogroup origin. The Bible is about the creation of males!!! LOL. Not White people whose origin are from an AFrican male. Geez. the woman was a clone of the male. This is the beginning of God's priesthood. THE PRIMITIVE NEANDERTHAL were completely intersexed and could NOT produce any anatomically straight YDNA haplogroup of anykind. @Pioneer1 ignoring White people and their secret groups versus defending against their openly public hate acts of racist attacks is two different issues. Black people need to understand why the White folks have come to own everything, even us as their chattel slaves and prisoners. If Black people weren't so obsessed over White people then they would not have stolen everything and put us in captivity to where we are completely dependent on them. Who said anything about focusing strictly on Black issues and Black businesses. Where are you getting that from!? We live in a multi-colored and multi-cultural world, but it is vital to focus on your own identity first and then we can appreciate other groups. But to be so obssessed with White Supremacist is just insane.

Mushroom clouds!? If we are dealing with Nuclear war, ... it really feels like we are facing some dark times on this earth.

Geez, who cares!? Who cares about white people keeping secrets. This is insane! science does not revolve around white men! science has its origin in the African scholars! No way! LOL! Black people made a big mistake letting those serpents into their land. It was not good to keep your ENEMIES closer back then, but of course today, we are in a different situation, a predicament. Now, the whole human race in diverse and so, what do we do now? @Pioneer1 We can't reject people on the basis of skin color, right?

Geez, Malcolm is showing that he is obssessed with White people! Why would black men care about White people keeping secrets! THAT IS INSANE! The white man cannot hide the truth. @Pioneer1 You give white people too much credit.

Okay @Pioneer1 I read it and I think that Malcolm X is/was a conundrum. Like him and many of the brothas and sistas of the recent past during those times, their fight helps us today, however, we need to build off of their positive works and edit some of the statements they made. We need to realize that our ancestors were products of CHILD SLAVERY and therefore, we have been fed a lot of lies and deception, therefore, we need to confirm truth, and be willing to correct statements if we find out it was wrong. Like I said, Minister Louis Farrakhan did just that. And, I did post it in a thread in the past. However, I will try to find it again. It popped up on my channel, a brief clip of him in his earlier days saying what you said about Jesus and the Jews being white but then later, he completely retracted this and he continually make statements in how the White Supremacist have lied and changed the race of Jesus to deceive Black people into rejecting Jesus. Malcolm X actually contradicts himself too and may be why he conflicted with the Nation. AFter he came back from the Middle East, he changed his agenda and sort of reverted back to his past. In his book, biography, written by Alex Haley, Malcolm shared that he was obsessed with White people. So, I think that his statements about Adam is not valid at all. Anyway, as I stated, science and genetics is pretty solid on male YDNA to the point that the accuracy of fatherhood can be 99.99% acurrate! I am not refuting that humans were older than 6000 years ago, and neither do scientist. Primitive humans were here on this earth but your statements are completely without any merit. Modern humans today are based on genetics and so, both Europeans and African people come from one male origin. period. Now, the genetic markers that modern humans show today do show that there has been interbreeding with primitive humans though. But you ignoring the scientific facts is simply crazy!

You're welcome!
