Epstein, Trump, Weinstein, Most of the perps in the "Me-Too"where white boys. I did not her enough to warrant an opinion, but I do know if he gets off he will be fine. People have shorty memories. Snoop Dogg beat a murder rap and white folks can't get enough the gangsta rapper. His cookbook is one of the top selling books by a Black person in America last year.

@umbrarchist There was something in my post that caused everything to center. I removed that code.

Relatively speaking this is a mere flash in the pan. Sure, a ton of damage can be done in a short period of time, but I believe America will recover an emerge a stronger, more resilient, and unified nation than ever. That is if AI does not get us first. body { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-align: left; padding-top: 50px; } .countdown { font-size: 1.8em; color: #333; } AI is a more pressing challenge. Optimistically, it will create large swaths of young people who will not want to do the jobs left for them to do. White collar jobs will be greatly diminished. It will be virtually impossible to justify the overpriced liberal arts degrees people are getting at our universities. When this counter ends, we have a pretty good indication if I'm right or wrong... then if course there is climate change.

No stupid or unduly reckless. Obama got an award for the promise of hope and change. Today we are still hoping for a change... The Nobel committee could say America's intervention avoided a protracted conflict. body { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; text-align: left; padding-top: 50px; } .countdown { font-size: 2em; color: #333; } Countdown to End of Trump’s Presidency 1305d 1h 32m 53s

Based upon what was written in the article, this guy is not going to get a quarter of $1 billion because of some inappropriate text messages. I guess he’s hoping Tyler will settle for a fraction of that amount which is still a sizable sum. I don’t think it’s some white conspiracy against black men as you guys have suggested it’s just the shit rich dudes have to go through when they behave inappropriately. if it was some average schmo sending those text messages nobody would’ve gotten sued. If the guy gets a couple of mill out of it, he’ll be set for life. That is all one really needs to be set for life.

Gunfire erupted during Tulsa’s Juneteenth celebration, leaving one dead and multiple victims in critical condition. The Black Wall Street Times Jun 23 Today, I was traumatized by having to relive the stories of Saturday’s tragedy. I had to co-author and edit a mass shooting story that hit home—my own family and community were there. It happened Saturday night during Tulsa’s annual Juneteenth celebration in the historic Greenwood District—Black Wall Street. First came the frantic calls and texts from family members: “Where are you?” “Are you okay?” The Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Saturday, June 21, 2025. Tulsa police officers lined the streets after a mass shooting left one person dead and several others injured, some critically. Then came the video footage—faces I know, my own family and neighbors, lying flat on the ground as gunshots rang out and people ran for their lives. For hours, I sat with crushing anxiety, praying none of them had been hit. We still don’t know the full list of victims. We still don’t know who pulled the trigger. Our own Black Wall Street Times interns were at the event. I later found out that one of them was just 25 feet from the gunfire. I kept asking myself—what if one of them had been shot? What if it had been our reporter or our photographer? What would I have told their families? That’s a call I pray I never have to make. We have to do better—to protect our communities and report our stories with the urgency they deserve. Click here to read the full article.

how can this happen when you summarily decide to boot Black people from the so-called race because you don’t like their skin color. again, here you go confusing the two words, race and racism are too completely different things. Racism obviously exists. In fact people who think like you perpetuate it. here too, grouping an entire people together based upon their skin color, then assigning them responsibility for the activities of a few is what this whole notion of racism has created. Most white people did not own slaves. Indeed, the standard of living of white people was lowered because of the institution of slavery, wealthy white people who were a minority created the system of white racism to enrich themselves. The white masses brought into the system because they were diluted and were striving to be wealthy. Even Black people brought into this with colorism the brown bag test, skin lightning creams… you said that you do not believe bumping people into different racial buckets does not imply differences in intelligence. So what difference is are inherent to these groups that you’ve created in your mind? So what is the purpose of the racial buckets that you’ve created? What are the distinguishing factors that make the people different? Is it just skin color? Again, America’s definition of black is different than yours because you don’t like to put light skinned people in the black category.

“There is no such thing as a race.” —Dr. John Henrik Clarke
Troy replied to Troy's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
don’t be silly of course you can describe people by their physical characteristics, but that don’t mean they are of different races people who hate your guts solely because of the color of your skin. Are retarded and certainly not the majority. yes, even with the election of Trump the country is far better in 2025, than 1825 not just for brown people of all shades but for everybody. yes, we can agree on that. What we disagree on is that there is already is one race. You just refuse to recognize it. the failure of people to recognize that there is one race is the primary reason racism has not gone away. Racism has been on a steady decline since the enslaved were emancipated. -
yes, and many of those people were other white people including European Jews, Italians, Irish, … Intellectually even Pioneer knows these, so-called white people weren’t even considered white When large numbers of them came to this country.

Dinosaurs and Humans--Did They Ever Co-Exist?
Troy replied to ProfD's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
clearly it’s a UFO but what evidence suggests to you that it is intelligent. And by intelligent, I assume you mean navigated by an intelligent being not of this earth. -
Pioneer you realize not all Latinos and Arabs are light skinned. All this talk about black men being in love with white people or light skin women with straight hair is anachronistic. Modern people have moved beyond this type of thinking people are free to love whoever the heck they wanna love, and sometimes those women have light skin, but more often they have brown skin because brown skin people dominate the Earth.

“There is no such thing as a race.” —Dr. John Henrik Clarke
Troy replied to Troy's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
many if not most already do. I don’t know we can start by saying “human.” Again, your need to define a people by the color of their skin completely escapes me. I don’t understand it?! You have been so completely brainwashed by the white racist’s doctrine that you can’t see it. I’m confident racism will go away eventually. Great strides have been made here in this country. That’s obvious to you, isn’t it? -
this is simply historically, inaccurate, white people and Black people and Asian people were trading with each other long before the concept of race was invented. there are 1 million ways to group people we can do it on religion, geography, family, ethnicity whatever. Why the preoccupation with lumping people into different categories anyway? Do you (anybody) believe that racial differences give rise to differences and characteristics like in intelligence? Who says Black people are on the lowest rung on the social ladder? Where does that come from?

@Milton would this be in the Sword and Soul genre. I'm actually working on getting a Sword and Soul BISAC code. Would you use it and help promote its use if I were able to get it through?
-
Yeah, but they are the ones who created the racial categories that you hold onto so tightly. You reject some of the absurdity but accept parts of it. These are just your ideas and have nothing to do with race. right, but we support this buy into their scheme by continuing to buy into the unfounded idea.

I have nothing to add @Pioneer1

“There is no such thing as a race.” —Dr. John Henrik Clarke
Troy replied to Troy's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
Dude the faulty concept of "race" is what has created the confusion. No it won't. People will always find a reason to justify their evil. Taking "race" out of the mix will eliminate that justification from their bag of tricks. Generations of people would have lived and died without ever believing that they were inferior (or superior) because of their so-called race. -
Hey @harry brown here is a link to some of the Juneteenth books I have on AALBC: https://aalbc.com/books/category.php?name=Juneteenth

Could AI go rogue like the computers in The Matrix
Troy replied to Delano's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
I’m surprised no one did it before you did then. -
Could AI go rogue like the computers in The Matrix
Troy replied to Delano's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
Funny I have used AI pretty much every day for the past year and it never occurred to me to ask it do anything like that There are other tools that you can use that would use MTG in the manner you described, but you might have to spend some money to do it. -
You've already let us know you reject science. The dictonary's definition obviously is not a scientific reference. It is curious you never reference any scientific sources for a definition of race.

Here you go again dodging questions @Pioneer1 The fact of the matter is that you would consider Homer a white man. The Federal government considered him a Black man. The ruling of the SCOTUS is not more irrational than yours.

“There is no such thing as a race.” —Dr. John Henrik Clarke
Troy replied to Troy's topic in Culture, Race & Economy
YES! The principle of the one drop rule is based upon the same flawed reasoning that you are anyone else including white racists would apply. -
@Pioneer1, is Homer Plessy a white or Black man?
-
OK since you reject the fact: The science has already shown that race as a result of genetics do not exist.... We can't have a normal conversation on the subject, as on this subject, you are estranged from reality.
