Ice Cube's Bonehead Move
Probably, but give it time this will likely change. In my lifetime, in some states it, was unlawful for a Black person to marry a white person. Now you can't turn on the TV without seeing mixed race couple -- they out number Black couples (I'd bet). HBO loves same sex couple and sex scenes -- out pacing I'm sure representation in the general population. So don't worry polygamy will be on the agenda in the future. Of course many see the mongrel mixing of the races, homosexuality, and polygamy as signs of the destruction of our civilization. While I do believe this civilization will end, it wont be because of who people choose to love... I will be for the exact opposite reason.

The women who make it to America have different motivations that the ones who are trapped in their countries.

YelloPain - My Vote Don’t Count “School House Rap”
It is a phase white people use. Ass-whipping would have been more apropos, but Obama is not exactly most culturally Black Brother around, and was communicating in the manner in which got him elected. Yes, if you don't support them you are giving tacit support to 45. As weak as Obama may have been, surely you can appreciate that he is more desirable than 45, right?

Google’s Monopoly Hurts You. Check out a Search on Tee Shirts:
Yeah, authors abandoned their own websites using Facebook as their primary web presence. I completely understand the lure, but I'm also old enough to remember the limitation so AOL when it was a walled garden and how liberating the WWW was. Facebook even took away the ability to reach your fans directly. Facebook will allow me to upload AALBC entire book database into their system to sell book on their platform. It is a great feature, but I will not be using it why would I just hand over a list f books that I've curated over the past 24 years? That is just crazy?! Many booksellers have done this with Amazon, and we see where that has gotten us. We can, and should, build on the web and in the real world. Yes, it is called my garage.

How can Blacks advance economically under Harris Biden?
The mainstream media IS the problem. They are the ones who treat tweet like it is the API or UPI. Taking all that noise on and given it credibility. This is the primary reason 45 is in the Whitehouse today. I did not sidestep any issues none were worth addressing beyond what I wrote. Bottom line the tax code is a mess. Middle class wage earning bear the brunt. Poor people do not pay income taxes, indeed those with kids actually get a payment from the government each April (with a big chunk for those payments going to "financial services firms" who give loans to people who can't wait "5 minutes" for return to process . The founder of Berkshire Hathaway famously explained that his secretary pays a higher percentage of her income than he does. I paid more in taxed last year than trump has paid in the past decade. @Delano Everyone should pay an equal percentage above some minimum floor, depending upon you location, say $50K in Tampa and $100k everything earned about the minimum is tax at the same rate. Capital gains, inheritances, wages, everything, except social security. No loop holes, no deductions.

@daniellegfny, do the number you just shared mean anything to you? Given what you now know about the leading cause of death, as shown in the figured you shared, and what you know about the number of death from Covid-19 what is the most significant conclusion you've drawn?

How do you choose your keywords for your book
Optimize for Google and your be fine with the other engines (few use them anyway) use the open graph meta tages "og:" this will help on social media. It was just a quick review. I don't really know enough about your product and the reader/buyer you are trying to attract to be able to suggest optimal keyword. Again, that information is not obvious from your on page SEO or even in the book description provided. You'd also need to look at how comptetive the terms you'd like to optimize for. If they are too competitive, you may want to consider others this all effect not just your keywords but word choice in your copy. I'm still curious is this as comic book or a book? What is the word count? Also what is the source of the Danielle's aversion to her aunt getting married? What is the social issue being addressed? I know you may not want to spoil the story, but what issue are we address is the child afraid she will lose her relative, is the dude she marrying an abuser? Also, I just now removed the embedded video from Rumble they autoplay videos -- even if the tab is not open. This is a terrible feature. Take the video and upload it to YouTube or Vimeo, or even consider serving the video directly from your server

How can Blacks advance economically under Harris Biden?
"Celebrities" are not a monolith. Besides, we know people who are actually wealthy do not pay the top marginal rate in taxes. Did you not learn anything from 45's taxes? Wealthy people pay a much lower percentage of total income than wager earners. 64K likes ... I wish Black people would stop consuming "information" from celebrities on Twitter. Donald Trump, Ice Cube, Kayne West, and 50 Cent are founts of knowledge today -- incredible!

Interesting perspective, 220K American deaths, perfectly acceptable huh? I have no response that would make sense to you or appeal to your moral compass. Same goes for your statement about people outside the US.

How do you choose your keywords for your book
One more thing that well help; I use often use the Facebook Developer tool to see evaluate webpages: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/?q=http%3A%2F%2Fdaniellegfny.com%2F You'll see form the results how you metatags are utilized and make changes to the page. This is really important for social sharing

How do you choose your keywords for your book
From your website I see the following relevant meta tags: A quick look: On your website I see the following relevant metatags <meta property="og:description" content="Read The Webtoon Version Become a [activecampaign form=1]" data-id="sfsi" /> <meta property="og:title" content="Danielle The Girl From New York" data-id="sfsi" /> These are not useful at all. I'm actually surprised to see this given this is a Wordpress site. Update both these tags to be more descriptive of each of your page's content. Here is where you enter keywords and phrases you are most interested in ranking for in search. The video below show a hardcover book without text the text. Why? It also sounds like an advertisement for Amazon, which would prevent me from sharing it (other than talking about it here). Other than those two things I think the video good otherwise. Is the Webtoon version actually what is contained in the book? The pages make the book look like a comic book. If so why don't you you describe it that way? Consider adding the Webtoom images to your site The information available for my main distributor is shown in the screen shot below. The discount is a lower than my regular discount but it high enough for me to be able to sell it on the web. It would probably work for a brick and Mortar store was well (from a financial perspective). The main thing is that the book is returnable which is good. The $10 price tag however is a big high for a 32 page paperback book. I would select at least three more BISAC codes to use. "Juvenile Fiction General is not descriptive enough. The target age group 1 to 12 is way too broad. Is it appropriate for a kid that can't yet each and one about to enter high school? The trim size is too large for a one year old (board books are best) and too short page length for a 12 year old. Perhaps this is a picture book or early reader? The point is I can't tell who this book is intended for based upon what I see on my my distributors site Consider removing text like, "...is released on Amazon..." indie book sellers are not motivated by language like this. Personally it turned me off more than Candice Owens 😉 I'm familiar with Carol Mitchell, she was a former client. I see I'm missing some of her books... Auntie I Don't Want You To Get Married - Danielle The Girl From New York is released on Amazon. This is the first installment of the new multicultural Illustrated Children's Book written by Clarence Coggins. Danielle is a young girl who travels from New York City to Georgetown Guyana to visit family for the first time. When she gets there she has all types of adventures. This is the tale of when her Auntie Julia is trying to find out why Danielle doesn't want her to get married. THAT WAS THE CUTEST STORY I EVER READ IN MY LIFE. I AM CRYING. I REALLY WANTED TO KNOW WHY SHE DID NOT WANT HER AUNT TO GET MARRIED. IT KEPT MY ATTENTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH..." - Carol D Mitchell, Author of Debi Thomas What Really Happened About the Author Clarence N.M. Coggins is a big fan of Japanese Anime. Raised on Golden Legacy Comics, Mr. Coggins learned at an early age that Blacks had contributed to the development of the Western World. He graduated from Kean University in Union, NJ with BA in Economics. He worked in the Public and Private sectors as a consultant and IT professional.

Candace Owens and Kamala Harris are Basically the Same
It should be! Almost a 1/4 of a million people have died in the U.S. of A. alone! Not to mention those you much now live with longer term health challenges {sigh} oh brother. Unlike the vast majority of American, 45 has the best physicians available. Many of us will just have aspirin to deal with this virus Of course, this should always be a goal, but it is not a short term solution, you see that right? Danielle we know you equate Covid-19 to the flu. While this is patently false, we also know facts, indeed nothing, will change you mind on this issue. This is a curious statement, on several levels, for you to make but I'll leave it alone.

Independent Booksellers Urge: “Don’t Box Out Bookstores”
This is an interesting campaign, but anything short of a boycott of Amazon is a waste of time. Read more: http://bit.ly/BOXEDOUT

Point me to your website, where I can learn more about the book, Auntie I Don’t Want You To Get Married and share and share an ISBN so I can look it up.

Because religion is mythology and science is applied logic.

If you really want something to worry about...
I doubt it too, but thus may be me projecting my thoughts. Both American and Chinese leaders may be up for an armed conflict. I take China at their word regarding the detention of U.S. citizens.

What is the nature of your mind
Well that is the thing; I think we are "modern privatives" now. I was to think like the ancient enlightened. If you consider the pyramids, and when they were built, surely the civilization that built those knew something we do not know today. Maybe I don't know enough about any of these subjects, but logic and science, and religion and mythologic seem like better pairings

Candace Owens and Kamala Harris are Basically the Same
No, that is a stupid consideration. Practically speaking Daniellefny, there is no difference. No one is mandated to take a flu shot, so that is different. I never had the flu nor have a taken a flu shot. Perhaps if I got the flu I'd feel differently. Covid has demonstrated itself to be at least an order of magnitude more deadly than the flu and that is with all the precautions we have taken. If there is a vaccine, it will be useless against protecting the population unless enough of us take it. Now I completely understand people being anxious to sign up for a particular vaccine that has been rushed into production. This is a problem. I guess when all these diseases like polio, small pox, measles, whooping cough and the like come back then people will be clamoring to force people to get vaccinated. I guess people don't know enough history to understand how deadly these deceases are, and how much misery they caused.

Ice Cube's Bonehead Move
Marriage is a legal construct, but ignoring the legal constraints. I do agree consenting adults should not be forced to embrace only a livelong monogamous, heterosexual, relationship. If four dudes wanna get "married" to each other -- let 'em go for it! As long as they don't bother forcing their morality down my throat and pay their taxes -- who cares. As far as Ice Cube and Jared, I've ignored that story.

Man do you think it is the same today? Maybe Canada can be my next stop after Tulsa 😉 Seriously, why so many Black people feel compelled to go to Europe always escaped me. If you are looking for women go to Africa or DR sisters are waiting their with open arms
