It doesn't have to be a fully finished product depending on the scope of the project. Thing is even in the venture capital world investors demand something tangible to get the ball rolling. When you're dealing with something as complex and impacting as school you really need to have something, like a well tested curriculum and results showing how your education got students to where they wanted in life, that allows people with questions to make the initial leap.

What happened with Moorus? I never was interested but for it to work it really has to get "black Twitter" to switch over.

Also: Dr. Umar Johnson, The Prince of Pan-Africanism

I mean, come on man.

lol Moorus was literally just announced. And it doesnt need Black Twitter at all as most of Black Twitter are young dumb and lost. Moorus isn not meant to take on or take over larger networks, it is simple suppose to be an avenue for like minded people to communicate with minimal trolling, nothing more nothing less.

My bad, I'm not talking about the people trolling. I mean the ones driving discussion, making funny memes, and popularizing the culture that has become what Twitter is. I thought the goal was to replace other social networks as the avenue for black people but if I'm wrong then so be it.

nah more so dealing with how "Pro black" content gets censored on Facebook for example yet Racist Content goes unchecked, or Racist Trolls flooding peoples comments, etc.

:dwillhuh: 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


:dwillhuh: 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


:martin: 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 :ohhh: but more :patrice:. 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.

Thank you.

Let them dudes eat people follow them and they telling their friends I ain't hating.

Jason black I think started off listening to Tommy I think and branched off and got his own stuff.

Left black folks learn nothing but respect for umar, he can fukk 20 strippers at the office and cocos and Lexx in Miami for all I care the man can open up a few brothers I'm happy.

Meh I wouldn't group Moorus and Tariq into that same boat. Tariq has put his own money and the donation money where his mouth is every single time.

Moorus hasn't been known for a full month yet so you have to give him time to make good on it.
True. was just using that as a example.

It's funny that no one is holding Umar Johnson accountable for all that money he was given for a school & while he claims he needs millions of dollars to open one, Black men like this
have already completed & opened a school for Black children that doesn't even come close to what Umar is claiming financially is required.

It's been going on four years and we've see none of this. :mjlol:

Have we seen any potential sponsors or other major investors to this project? No.

Have we seen any highly qualified teachers, aides, counselors, nurses, instructors, trainers, nutritionists of any kind that will be working with Mr. Shoemaker? No.

Have we even seen so much as a blue print or any workshops on what kind of curriculum would be taught in this school if it were to be brought to fruition? No.

I could see from the jump (2011 mind you) if he was straight up and said "This will take some time to come to fruition, but here's how can you assist in getting on board so you can see where your money is going." Was he at least man enough do that?

No.

And then there's this





shyt on your donators, then essentially threaten them brehs

Yeah I saw the vid of that second speech before.

Do "Dr. Umar" fans understand that he said he if you send your kids to his school, he will literally kidnap them from you if he sees fit?

How does he still ONE supporter on planet Earth after that? He's probably a pedo. Fat fukking creep.
