Blacks and the Republican Party
Again, the 19th century Republican and Democratic party are completely different the parties of the 21st century. It would be more accurate to describe the parties of being reversed of each other. Sure I'm all for honoring Revels and all of the Black men who served in the congress immediately upon the end of our enslavement in this country, but to use this as evidence that the Republican party is somehow a long term supporter of Black people is to ignore the history of the party over that past 100 years.

Getting Just The Right Logo
Really? I could see there being some confusion as to which logo might be considered "last," but the first logo is pretty obvious by my reckoning. Why would one start at the bottom of a page and describe something there as the "first" thing on the page?

Soul Brother’s Empowerment Package - Limited Time!
Oh, but I still do see how that explains why Black people can't be racist.

Foundational Black Americans: We Need An Established Culture
Well it is good to read you won't tolerate rape in your society. Can one my wives be 16 years old? What about abortion? Would @Pioneer1'Pioneer1's world tolerate that?

Indicted And Charged For NOT Shooting Our Sister Breonna
Many people were shocked and angered by the verdict. I have not been following the case close enough to know anything about her boyfriend, so I can't assess his reaction or life style. But I wouldn't expect anyone to faceoff against the police in reaction after the fact. That would be suicide, and what good would that do?

I wouldn't want to be part of that tribe.

Soul Brother’s Empowerment Package - Limited Time!
I can't say I understand what that means. James Brown was Soul Brother #1. It seems he may have been the last soul Brother...

Foundational Black Americans: We Need An Established Culture
@Pioneer1 I see you agreed with this. But your utopian culture does not allow people express their homosexuality, transgenderality does it? It is impossible to debate you because your perspectives are founded on the false believe in a genetic basis of race which is deeply confounded by a belief in stereotypes. I have no more interest in having multiple wives than have in having 10 children. Does this mean I'm not Black or have been brainwashed with a Eurocentric mindset, as you see it?

Foundational Black Americans: We Need An Established Culture
Because Tariq behaved like a child reacting to Umar. I always viewed Umar with suspicion. Yes, i too would like to sit down and craft codes of behavior for everyone else to follow, but again cultures are not created that way. The stuff about spaghetti. alcohol, and numbers of partners is too riddled with stereotypes to address seriously. In your culture we have multiple wives but can't drink? Dude that will never work lol!

Good News Blog - stories through a year
I watched the local news yesterday and when I look at the photo all I can see is a forest fire consuming me and all of my belongings or that river over flowing it's banks an washing everything I own away... More seriously; I guess were are in the midst of autumnal equinox. Here in Florida that is usually heralded by a drop in the humidly, the end of the afternoon thunderstorm, and the arrival love bugs. Since the tree leaves don't change color and die here it is like the springtime. @rosa "...with someone" is the important part. That experience would be goo alone, but great with someone. 🙂

Foundational Black Americans: We Need An Established Culture
-Language (Ebonics)-Diet (Fried Chicken, Hog Maws, Souse, Chitterlin's, Mac-n-cheese, candied yams, okra, collards, etc-Mating/Marriage Custom (Jumpin' the broom)-Religious/Moral Code (prosperity ministry, holy roller, sanctified, negro spirituals and gospel music) Seriously why disparage the Black "subculture?" Our culture is derived, necessarily, from multiple sources. indigenous, European, African, etc. What do you want to do manufacture a culture our of whole cloth and expect everyone to simply embrace it? You know it does not work that way right? I did not hear about or attend the conference. Can you share a link? Nasheed lost a lot of credibility with me with his public beef with that heavy set brother that took all that money to start a school but never started it... name escapes me now.

Too Much Tragedy for Any Person to Bear
I just sat down to watch some YouTube videos while eat my dinner and decided to watch the NBC nightly news. Now I never watch local or national news broadcast, but the flooding in Houston piqued my interest. 90 seconds in I can tell why so many Americans are stressed out. The lead in to the new program was ominous -- disaster, followed by calamity, followed by tragedy -- it was too much! I was actually shocked! Who subjects themselves to this "news" everday? Man has not to evolved to deal with a lifetime of bad news in 60 second period. Is everyone just numb to it? I watched something else.

The Freedom Georgia Initiative - Building a Black Community
BEWARE OF THOSE CAMERAS: Man that is a powerful statement on so many levels. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad could not have possibly have known where we would go in 2020, or how social media would have an even stronger effect. I'm sure that is an old saying as I can't imagine it being true of a contemporary Black man. No one I associate myself with would ever behave in such a fashion. It is archaic behavior.

"Yeah I'd F**k Diddy" - Witness A Product Of Mental Deterioration
That is the same flawed reasoning mainstream media used to justify wall to wall coverage if Trump which helped to usher him into the whitehouse. But I get it you had to share the video to make the point. You've watched a ton of these videos have you felt influenced to engage in sexual behavior?

The Freedom Georgia Initiative - Building a Black Community
Well monitoring the project may be pretty easy. I read the are in contract for a reality TV show. We love to entertain ... even during our revolution huh?

"Yeah I'd F**k Diddy" - Witness A Product Of Mental Deterioration
Soooo that is your reason for watching and sharing Vlad videos? Do you also really believe that a heterosexual man would be influenced to wear a dress or become a homo as a result if anything Vlad records?
-
The Freedom Georgia Initiative - Building a Black Community
Hey @Pioneer1 this might be right up your alley: https://thefreedomgeorgiainitiative.com/ The want to develop "...our vast resource-rich 96.71 acres of land in Toomsboro, GA for the establishment of an innovative community for environmentally sustainable-living, health & wellness, agricultural & economic development, arts & culture for generations to come." They misspelled the name of their own organization at the top of the page (I just emailed them a correction).

"Yeah I'd F**k Diddy" - Witness A Product Of Mental Deterioration
That would perfectly explain it, and it would not surprise me if it were true. You think a serious white supremist would broadcast their diabolical schemes on Vlad's YouTube channel? Well continue enriching and enabling him. I choose not to.
