Another book I have to add to the site.

Homo Sapien Sapien. But in more colliquial parlance, the most powerful people in the world now are "white." This was not always true, nor will be true for much longer. Racism was used to justify the perpetual enslavement of Black people. Race was used to explain that we were subhuman. Religion, science, and history were perverted to support racism. The most uneducated of us hold onto these distorted views today. This was done to benefit the slave holder. Most white people did not benefit from this, one could argue most white folks were made worse off due to the practice of slavery. At least half a million of them died fighting on behalf of wealthy slaveholders, during the civil war. Hummm what history are you reading? Does it include 400 years of kidnap, rape, and enslavement? Was monsters ball an example of this respect?

@Kareem, sure Bill was a disastrous president, but Hillary is not Bill and you've used Bill's record, unfairly, against Hillary. Well that is because the so called "Afroamerican" is not, nor has it ever been a monolith. No sufficiently large geographically dispersed people are. I agree however politically we need an agenda, things most of us are willing to fight for. @Pioneer1 (anyone) what are the top three things we should have on our agenda?

Well if one is at the point were they believe white racists have secretly used a fantastic technology to create and maneuver hurricanes to kill Bkack people, then there is no logic or reason im aware of that cab change that belief. It is like trying to convince an ignirant white racist that Mexicans have not stolen all the jobs. Honestly, I don't know the best thing to do with the modern warrior class. Their use in combat sports or the marines, supprting Americas protracted wars and providing entertainment is a waste too...

I almost opted out of the last presidential election fir similiar reasons. I'd advise you to vote for the lessor of two evils. This how we endded up with 45. Surely you have to believe Hillary would have been a little better than 45, right?

I dunno man maybe I should watch the film (again). It just seems to me movies, made by white men that show Black women's bodies, are always suspect -- ala Hallie Berry in monster's ball, or the rump-shaking rap video. It is how they get their kicks. "First you get money, then you get the mother fuckin' power..." "C.R.E.A.M." Acquisition of money is all about power. Broke people exert very little power. Even millionaire's can be powerless if they are waiting around for an employer to cut them a check. The truly powerful, in 2019, are not racist, but they will use racism to increase their wealth/power as quickly as they will start a war, sell cancer sticks, sell other humans -- including their own children.

I hear you Pioneer the tragedy those Bahamians endured was unbelievable. The storm was originally forecast to cut across FL, near me, and into the gulf. It didn't rain a drop the entire time. However, man does not yet possess the intelligence or technology to control cat 5 hurricane's. Lets not go completely off the rails with these consiracy theories. The fact that hurricanes cut through where Black people live is coincidence. Like how forest fires and tornadoes impact white folks more. When was the last time yiu heard about a Brother being struck by lightning. Yes white folks have done some devilish shit to Black folks and the indigenous populations all over the world, fortunately the use of hurricanes is not an arrow in their quiver. @Kareem, I hope you never have go out in that blaze of glory. I see you are part of the warrior class of Brothers. The men who would participate in, if not lead a slave revolt. Your nature must be put to better use in the 21st century...

Im reading Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams

Oh Ok, that big Washington Times graphic leading the article put me off. Do yiu believe "pizzagate" was a hoax.

Daniel Rasmussen's book is in my queue of books to add to the website. I remember this book. It came out before I could easily add new authors to the website so I focused primarily on Black authors.

@Mel Hopkins I was asking about that specific video (linked below). All of the points you mentioned are subjective and have meaning in context. A simple thumbs up or thumbs down on the specific Cardi video I shared would be helpful to understand where you draw the line. I don't think the problem with this Cardi B. video is consumerism. It take my concerned about the Normani video to the next level. It is being viewed at a rate of 1 millions views a day since it has been posted thanks to Google profiting off concert tickets sales and God knows what else. Many of these very same people also voted for Obama. People are desperate for change -- for things to improve. But even these people were not in the majority. Remember 45 lost the popular vote by about 3 million votes if memory serves. So you don't think money had anything to do with Universal's motivation to create these "slutty" videos with our sistas shaking their butts non-stop? Of course an utterly complete disregard for how we are represented in the global media makes this possible. Shaka Zulu?! Staring David Hasselhoff? Ni99a phulese! Next you'll be citing marvel's Black Panther representation of Black culture. Greedy rich white people will do anything for money. White people will murder us at a clip 1,300 (mostly other white people) through the sale of cigarettes -- far-and-away eclipsing opioid overdose by a factor of 7! The people running the NFL, UMG, Facebook, Phillip Morris, whoever, only care about money. Any harm done to Black and white people is purely incidental. Of course they will use race to keep us at each other's throats, when the need arises, to keep us distracted while they poison us, destroy the planet, and fleece of all our wealth.

As an aside @Kareem, it you recast your Blogs URLs with meaningful text like "I-Have-Dream.php" rather than "?p=52" that would help with your SEO. Wordpress allows you to do this without breaking your URL. Now Google has all kinds of hoops you have to jump through but that one is low hanging fruit provided the have no issues with the nature of your site's content which I can not assess -- who knows what is going on in Google's little brain.

LOL! You are a conspiracy theorist! But hey I can't prove Epstein is dead any more than I can prove that we landed on the moon or vaccines don't cause autism. Kareem I checked out the article, but it referenced The Washington Times a newspaper run by that cult leder Sun Myung Moon. Has anyone at the Blog considered the nature of that particular source?

Nah, I don't buy this one. Pedophilla is fringe and still largely viewed as deviant behavior by the vast majority of people of all so called "races." Child molestation is viewed as the lowest crime of all -- no one wants to be locked up a "short eyes." This probably on reason Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. Now it might be possible that pedipiles, like homosexuals, are overly represented in some fields and therefore have outsized influence, but that does not mean the rest of the population cosigns any of this. Also, it is problematic grouping homesexuals with pedophiles. Two consenting adults can do whatever they want to with each other. However, a child is in no position to consent. These are to completely different things

That's what's up! Please share a link to your blog (if you have not already done so) and the most recent of one of those Malcolm links!

A Lie of Reinvention: Correcting Manning Marable’s Malcolm X is published by Black Classic Press, and Black owned company based in MD. The book is also written, printed, and distributed by Black owned companies. I sell this book by redirecting readers to the Black Classic Press' website. So when you write you would not have heard of the book were it for not for this site. If you buy the book online it is important that you buy it from the link I provide or and Indie bookseller -- otherwise these books will not be published.

Good! Keep your standards up I think you'll meet her. Did you go to Morehouse, which has a reputation of cross-dressing men.

Wait, what? Pedopilla is not a problem, but merely a "preference" as in a lifestyle choice and does not warrant treatment. Is this what you are saying the DSM 5 says @Kareem?

Yeah i actually heard these videos before. I was of the impression that racists would sacrifice other whites for their cause not that white people would be lining up to sacrifice themselves. Again, on its face that makes no sense. Sure you could probably find some crazy some crazy white person that would do that, but that cast majority would not. They, like every other rational person they are trying to achieve and maintain a basic level of confort or even improve upon it for themselves and their children -- not to serve as cannon fodder for some other racist. Just because Nelly Fuller, apparently, says this does not make it true. I asked you if you had any white friends. Judging by your response the answer is clearly no. As a racist you can't see the world any other way. I felt the same way until i actually got to know some white people. So @Pioneer1, you found the video (ove 107 million views) to be "slutty." Do you think it, and the others like it, are appropriate for kids? What do you think the motivation, for funding and producing this slutty video is for the white people at Universal Music Group?

I have a copy of the book that I just might be willing to part with. Though I can not find the dust cover when I take off books that I read as not to damage them.

No problem @Maurice however the video I posted was not just for your benefit; I'm sharing it with other who visit the website. I just discovered it looking for the documentary referenced on the website you shared. I never saw this video, and I am watching it for the first time as I write this reply.

@Pioneer1 do you have any white friends that you talk to on a regular basis? Do you believe any of them buy into what you are saying? Also, I'm familiar, as you know, with Fuller and I'm not convinced you are acurately representing his position. How'd you like the Twerking video?

@Pioneer1 I could nit help think of you when I made this.

The athleticism in this video is prodigious and the women are all beautiful. Did you peep the back somersault. The gymnast in me is impressed. All jokes aside, @Mel Hopkins and @Pioneer1 (or anyone) still no problem with these videos and kids? I'd never seen any of these videos until just before posting them -- I now know there are pleny of these videos, I'm sure enough to watch continously for days.
