African Diaspora News Insider Watchers


Recommended Posts

Many of us just finished the Live Chat of ADNI's report on Black Basketball Players being called The N-Word. 

 

In the chat I made a call to action as I saw so many ideas, frustrations, and anger so many of us feel at the constant disrespect and treatment we get. 

 

Far from victims, we sounded resolute, ready to filter and organize our ideas into action steps. Some of you agreed to meet me here to do exactly that. 
 

Please, let us know that you are here and ready to voice your opinions.
 

The first step, I believe is to show that you are here. 
 

Please respond with just an introduction and let's go from there.
 

Fingers are easily broken but a clenched fist is not. 

I am here and ready to unite.

Professional black ahletes need to unite and come up with an agenda to which they can hold others accountable.  They need to use that collective power to fight racism even it means not playing the games. Team owners do not want to lose money.  They will do whatever it takes to keep the labor force on the field. 😎

It does sadden me that no one came to this thread to talk about how we can focus our ideas, but maybe there is a bigger space for that.

 

 

 

Don't be discouraged.

 

People tend to get busy with other matters and then

they don't follow up on their commitments.  

 

Since they didn't bother to come to this forum, perhaps

you can contact your group using another method.

 

Sometimes they need reminding.

Yeah like Twitter or Instagram.

 

I was unaware, until now, of your attempt to rally folks to participate here.   While people freely create accounts on social media.  They are curiously reluctant to do the same on Black sites. 

 

Even when people buy books from this site the vast majority do not create accounts or save their most basic personal information.  Of course these same peoples give Amazon all their information.

 

This puts Black sites at a disadvantage to corporate sites (read: white sites).  I don't know a way around this.

 

If I let people posts as quests this site would be over run with spam.
