not to shyt on dude but what's so great about his wisdom, you telling you didn't know any of the info he talking before you heard him say it
Didn't know children of color are purposely under and miseducated
Didn't know there is a school to prison pipeline in urban communities
Didn't know that the black family structure has been under attack since the day the first slaves were put on boat

I knew this by simply looking out my window everyday
The talent he has is speaking and even that honestly is blown way out of proportion, speakers like him are a dime a dozen matter fact he needs to thank Sa Neter and the house of konsciousness for putting him on
At that point all he did was appeal to women's (ask yourself why in, 8 out of 10 pics he hugged up with younger women) he appealed to there motherly side by promoting this $4 million dollar school

nobody finds it strange that you've yet to see the man lecturing to actual children
Well of course but some folks don't know, some folks don't have the common sense you may have and Dr umar regardless of what he says is straight from Malcolm x or Marcus Garvey or John Amos, Dr Francis or whoever mouth, he's younger, hipper and csn possibily relate better to the younger crowd today. You be surprised how many folks feel comfortable talking to people that think they csn relate to. I'm a older darkskin dude with a badly young cats run up on me and start raping about music to me all the time, what clubs I go to and so forth cuz they think I'm in thst life.
I'll left umar live, I think he has use as a vessel to some folks who may need to know, think of him like fox news but for black folks, younger who lack common sense and need to be taught. He ain't no different than church to me, you go there and you leave feeling better than when you got in there.
Least he's speaking black unity or how to attain it and what the system does.
what exactly is Umar saying that is so wise that you haven't heard before, or couldn't have thought up yourself? Like I want an honest breakdown of this without linking me to some youtube videos. Because most of what I hear him say is stuff that doesn't make me go

but more

. He has says sensible things but usually undermines it with misguided understanding of how the world works.
He's an educator that "knows" history but doesn't know economics. He's the same guy preaching about why we need to support black business and how we dont have our own shyt (ignoring those of us that do) but won't tell you in finite terms how to do it, where to find these people, what actually goes on economically and how money transfers between communities, or areas where black businesses really thrive. He is in essence the black version of CAC media that sells this negative image of black people with narratives that are based partially in truth and partially in bullshyt. And because he's a black man you'd support it but if Rush Limbaugh came out with this rhetoric you'd be very suspicious. But keep believing what he spouts is wisdom - I'm ready to find out what it is when yall can explain it.
States before, yeah I know he repeats stuff from the elders, all of these young cats do, I think tarriq does too but tarriq dropped hidden colors so at least he got something in writing. It's what makes Tommy Sotomayor look bad is he just rants with nothing behind it.
Im sorry when you're dealing with large sums of money donated by people you open yourselves to criticism same way i criticize tommy sotomayor for squandering donations for his fatherless america picture on keeping up his own vain lifestyle. Where is the school? When is it opening up?
They use the hopes dreams and vunerability of the black community to create a lifestyle for themselves they couldnt make on their own.
Im sure Umar means well but where are the tangible results?
And you're right he got in over his head. I agree should have thought small first but I don't think dude is a fraud.
Also don't bring up females since the 70s if you caring seriously you doing something for hoes. Apple knows this all too well.
My nikka. He says the same things great men like Malcolm X have said word for word. Sometimes using contemporary words. If you know your history then its hard to fall prey to charlatans like Umar.
"My people are destroyed by lack of knowledge".
Go listen and read the works of Malcolm X instead of listening to some fraud ass nikka trying to do his best rendition.
nikkas like Umar are doing a huge disservice to the so called problack movement. I wish black folks would realise that they have the power to change themselves instead of relying on one muthaphucka to tell them what to do. Stop looking to be lead goddamn it.
Like I said if he csn open up one person's eyes he did something.
I out it to you like this.
Thst Missouri incident, I've never seen black folks shut crackers down like thst before and it wasn't screaming and shouting it was putting money first to get crackers listening.
I won't say umar is a revolutionary but the more people who stay woke the better.
More people speaking up the better, I'll left tarriq and all these nikkas eat with YouTube videos as long as nikkas is staying socially active with it.
Also bill Cosby lawyer knows Dr umar and look what she doing?
I ain't hating bro, not me but I feel you nikkas who call him a fraud. Just don't go to work collecting white man's gold, chasing panga, then when a nikka get shot in the street you on the coli saying fukk crackers.
