Umar: Every black church in America has their money in a white bank.

Invalid: My family's church has their accounts with one of the last black-owned banks in the country, a bank that was founded by one of its members.

^^^^^Cool Fact: This lady in yellow was a priest at my church and taught me how to waltz when I was an escort for a deb ball. Her family owned both a funeral home and currently one of the 12 last existing black owned banks in the United States.^^^^^^^^^

Umar: Black churches are giving money to white banks who turn around and fund gentrification of the very neighborhoods these churches are located in.

Invalid: Additionally, our church bought back the block and kept housing affordable for the local residents and elderly.

And to add to this, my family's church is the largest property owner in Washington Park whose actual ministry is to provide affordable housing to area residents. So there has already been discussions on this, and they are not raising the rents on residents, even if there is an uptick in property value. An as you suggested, the neighborhood is still a bit grimey and is a food desert so there would be no rush for outsiders to move in, over, say Woodlawn, the Highlands, or South Shore.

I mentioned before that my church is the largest property owner in Washington Park. We own probably up to 50+ properties from Garfield to 63rd st. I'm talking about large apartment complexes. That tall apartment tower on 63rd Michigan is even owned by us. We have built a lot of new construction as well. We have a separate redevelopment corporation that manages all the properties.

I'm including the quotes so you can't say I'm telling ducktales.

Umar says a lot of slick shyt that delights the ears of susceptible Negroes but many times it's not based on reality.

Our church is not unique.

We even have stained glass windows of his schools ancestors namesake.

So at this point at least one black church singlehandedly has done more for the black community than Umar has.

You gotta be out your fukking mind posting a scammer talking about not getting a return on investment


"This man's words opened my eyes"

Someone's jealous of those DOONAATIONNSSS

Why put your money in the dirty bucket when you can simply hit ca$happ!

I know, I know... a lot of you Coli nikkas hate the Black church. I get it.
But a good church can provide a lot: a community, friendships, a spouse, a good place to raise your children. Amongst other things.
To some people it is easily worth donating some of their money in order to fund such an organization and have it present in their lives.

assuming what you say is true, it takes a scammer to know a scammer

This right here:

"Bash Mister's head open" is metaphor for how Black should be approaching life....and to stop believing that there is a big reward down the road for being subservient. Even if there is a reward, that shyt can wait.

Have some pride and stop being a submissive, people pleasing sucker, and be assertive with your life....and to hell with who gets upset about it.

A lot of them hate the black church the same reason they hate on other black people for inoffensive reasons

Out of touch.

The church I went to up until adulthood use to raise money for scholarships to send people to HBCU’s. Curious if they still do that.

Yhup but at this point I've given up. Christians are far too in to back out now. You can literally see their eyes lose focus when you try telling them the truth
The brainwash is EFFECTIVE
