He's not perfect, but where does Tariq Nasheed stand with you as a black voice in the media?

[NatiboyB]

It's shallower than that.

Remember when he was going after Sister Feminista Jones? While Tariq was actually make some sound points, these nikkas here were just cracking on her looks, how she probably sleeps with white men etc.

So in a sense, they actually are more engaged by his put on, outlandish personality (cuz sorry for any of you youngstas, the nikka look sweeter than a damn $1 tea from McDonalds) than his actual input to what he's discussing.

But like I stated before, he's a perfect representation for this generations definition for activism, and interestingly enough all who truly benefit from this is Tariq himself. Not saying the brotha shouldn't eat well, but most of that money is going straight to him and the distributors. The schools closing in Philly ain't getting that shyt. The Charter-school out here in Pullman in Chicago that just opened ain't seeing a dime of it. Hell did he even bother to send a few dollars to Umar Johnson's school?

Again, not saying he can't benefit from the fruits of his "labor", but I'm not acting like the nikka Thurgood marshall or huey newton.

Yes he did

He's aight...sometimes I agree with what he says, other times I don't.

I'd take him over Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton/etc, but we really need more NDT-types in the media.

 

[NatiboyB]

He's better off tapdancing if that's his end goal.
Most black people aren't going to support son no matter how he presents himself and will actively look for reasons to tear him down.
He'd make a lot more dough if he focused on aligning his ideals in conjunction with the media and not against it.

odd how that works isn't it...If he was chasing money he'd be c00ning it up...He wouldn't of released hidden colors nor his books...His books would of been about how a woman can keep a man or some ole zane type novels...Also Im the last person to knock someone for being in the streets especially when damn near a good percentage of activist have been street cats...And I don't consider the brother an activist just like I don't consider Claude Anderson, Sister Ali, Brother Umar, and others as activist....They don't need to utilize Activism..

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

Yes he did

Ahh right, he did owe Umar a favor for appearing in his movies.

I guess that just means we give him carte blanche and let him do his thing.

my brother do you see what you did there...Instead of just giving credit where it's due you snuck in a jab against another brother.

 

[Poitier]

And I don't consider the brother an activist just like I don't consider Claude Anderson, Sister Ali, Brother Umar, and others as activist....They don't need to utilize Activism..

Have to disagree.

 

[Drummage_EL]

Malcolm X was a pimp so that talking point is corny. Activist don't have to come from clean backgrounds.

You comparing tariq to Malcolm X?


























































Really?

 

[Canon]

he's irrelevant as fukk outside the coli and the conscious community.

your soul must burn every time u see this

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

my brother do you see what you did there...Instead of just giving credit where it's due yo u snuck in a jab against another brother.

Because I don't owe that nikka shyt, are you fukkin serious? You really didn't even bother really reading what I posted, just skimmed until you found a point or two to garner a damn response.

Bruh, you on some Beyonce fan level shyt, and this is a nikka we talking about.

 

[NatiboyB]

Ahh right, he did owe Umar a favor for appearing in his movies.

I guess that just means we give him carte blanche and let him do his thing.

This is what you just said...I didn't force no words upon you...You imply that Umar only got a donation because he appeared in his films...I supported Umar and will continue to support him because this idea is needed...I also support flex on some things...

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

You should actually read the other two post I made about Nasheed.....but, instead you'll just focus on that one because it's easier for you to deal with.

And like I stated before, not saying the brotha couldn't eat from his labor.

 

[Poitier]

You comparing tariq to Malcolm X?

Last I checked, Malcolm bled like you and me.

 

[Drummage_EL]

.....

This can't be fukkin' real.

That's a real documentary.

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

This is what you just said...I didn't force no words upon you...You imply that Umar only got a donation because he appeared in his films...I supported Umar and will continue to support him because this idea is needed...I also support flex on some things...

Yeah, I posted that because that may have been a deal they made....you're talking in circles.

 

[NatiboyB]

Have to disagree.

of course you will....But I don't consider anyone who actually has a plan as an activist...Only thing I could maybe say are that they are economic activism..which I am a supporter of.

Damn I thought only feminist hated Brother Tariq but it seems other brothers hate him just because....
