Poor White Ain't Poor Black

It seems there's an expectation for Black People to feel sorry for all the "poor white people" in America and consider them "honorary Black folks". There are always a few Blacks & Latinos who think this, and many Asians tend to side with whites. There are some outstanding individuals who truly stand for equality & justice that I consider friends and will stand with, but beyond them collectively poor white people embrace their white privilege with no intention of working for equality. Until white people consistently confront other white people on racism then don't expect Black People to "get over it".

When Should I Protest???

By sitting & kneeling during the national anthem Colin Kapernick took a strong stand against racial injustice that has exposed America for not standing for what it claims the flag & anthem represents when it comes to Black People. If Colin Kaepernick didn't sit or kneel for the national anthem there would be no discussion at all about racial injustice, and things would continue as they have been with no justice or progress. In truth, we still haven't progressed or gotten justice, but Colin's stance has at least made many more uncomfortably aware of the issues. It is unfortunate that there is more emphasis on disrespect for the flag or the national anthem than the continual disrespect of Black People in America; which is why the protests were started.

If We Fight Can We Win?

The U.S.A doesn't have to fight a war it can't win if we stop it before it starts. Many Black People feel like white people and the U.S. government are already at war against them, but Black People have yet to fully fight back, and I pray that we don't have to. However, if we're forced into such actions to defend ourselves as well as to obtain equality and justice then I'll be doing more than just praying. Some who claim to be Christians as I do or of some other religious persuasion may fear that I'm calling for violence, but I'm calling for God given common sense. In the biblical book of Esther when the Jews were in a similar situation as Black People in America are today they weren't instructed to march or sing but were told to fight back after they had already prayed. Black People have a right to live freely in peace as human beings, and to also fight for those rights.

Me, Us, and Bill Cosby

Recently I was asked how I felt about Bill Cosby now with all the allegations and revelations about him having come out; especially during his recent mistrial for sexual assault. My answer is this: I can forgive him but I can't forget how he indulged himself at not only those women's expense but ours also as his fans, supporters, and of those who believed in him because of the message he pretended to portray. It makes it harder at the thought that he has the audacity to want to hold town hall meetings about sexual assault. This is not about a white supremacy conspiracy but about what Bill Cosby has admitted to himself and been brought out by others.

White Supremacy + Racism = Global Destruction

Racism & White Supremacy are the most brutally violent social ideologies ever created or put into practice on a global scale as well as the world's greatest and most wicked "affirmative action" programs. "White Nationalism" is not "white pride" but is "Terrorism" that is systematically enforced against non-white masses even after granting these colonized peoples the illusion of freedom or equal citizenship in order to domesticate them. Not all white people are White Supremacists but ALL PEOPLE are victims of white supremacy; including the racists themselves, because racism has given white society a false sense of security.

HOW TO BECOME A SCHOLAR

So you consider yourself a "scholar" and like challenging others to debates to prove yourself? Having a degree doesn't necessarily make anyone a scholar but nor does being a well read autodidact (self taught person) make you one either. It's how well you accurately research information and can communicate that research to others that makes you a true scholar. If all your information is from memes or YouTube videos then it means you don't know anything. It just shows that you are a blind follower of other people's information based on how well it sounds but not on how right it actually is.

You're Not An Immigrant!

It irritates me a great deal that anyone who is a person of melanin born in the Western Hemisphere either in Europe or the Americas that is a slave descendant or descendant of colonized native peoples would call themselves an immigrant or allow that false label. We were enslaved & colonized in Africa and the Americas. We didn't immigrate anywhere. Our ancestors "migrated", not "immigrated", to vastly unsettled lands and built thriving civilizations there. We weren't even infected with certain diseases until the Europeans invaded with their own diseases and wiped out entire ethnic cultures with them.

Random Thoughts on Black Christians, Forgiveness, & The Black Church

Black Christians have to stop being so accommodating to others when it comes to racism & White supremacy, even if those others are so called Christians. No true believer in Christ ignores the suffering of injustice enacted towards their fellow believer or human being, and tells them to "just pray about it" while they do nothing about it.

How To Identify A Psychopathic Man In A Relationship

When men are being habitually unfaithful to their spouses and are unrepentant about it they will normally began accusing their mate of being unfaithful in order to try covering their own infidelity. They will use disagreements or purposely create them as excuses to leave the house to "go out with friends" and "get away". They rarely apologize and won't be accountable for neglecting their spouse or children, nor honestly admit to any abuse that may be going on. Often they will begin sowing seeds against their own mate to try setting them up as the one in the wrong just in case they ever get exposed for the wrong they're doing.

5 Signs of a Cult Mentality

1. Refuses to question leadership or berates others who dare question their chosen "messiahs" as being "agents, coons, traitors, sellouts, non-supportive, haters", and other derogatory slanders. Once they become emotionally invested in the personality they follow then they take such questions against the person as personal attacks against themselves, but will deny this.

Accountability - Where Is It Among Black People?!

On January 25, 2017 a black woman in Atlanta, GA got a double whammy at a gas station near the Georgia Dome. As she went to make a purchase she was accosted by another black woman for her cell phone. The other woman fought her for her cell phone and took it from her. As she went after the other woman for her phone she dropped her car keys. Three black men unrelated to the strong arm robbery who observe the whole incident did nothing to help her, but instead pick up her keys and steal her car while she's still trying to get her cell phone back.

An Open Letter to BLACK PEOPLE

An Open Letter to BLACK PEOPLE:  In Africa right now as we speak there is constant tribal warfare and religious warfare between differing factions of Black African People. In the U.S.A and in other areas of the west there are the same kinds of tribalism and constant divisive conflicts between those of different spiritual or religious persuasions among Black People.

DIVIDED: The Failure of Online Pro-Black Social Groups

It's sad that most information in black online social groups is in memes because we have no discipline to read and learn. We have such a lack of knowledge and a preponderance of misinformation among us because most of the online information we accept as true has made us into fools who think "dropping knowledge" or educating our people means dropping the most memes about things we haven't researched to know if it's actually true, or about things meant to take shots at what others believe.
