Really? :mjlol: What world are you living in?



Nobody wants to hear these unlearned fools wax poetically about things they have no idea about.


You guys love bringing up this clip..... as if Malcolm was infallible.... I’m sure glad Jim Brown, Ali, CAP, dikk Gregory, Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, Harry Belafonte, Baldwin, Hughes, Ozzie Davis, Ruby Dee, Nina Simone, etc,etc,etc gave no fukks and put in some real work..... I wonder how Malcolm would’ve felt if said entertainers were Muslim..... :patrice:

It’s not about being infallible; it’s about being learned and doing tangible work. Ali went to prison and gave up valuable years of his career to fight for black people; T.I. wanted to boycott Gucci for 6 months. They’re not the same.

Entertainers today don’t know anything about the black agenda and brag about being removed from the black experience (until it’s time to make money off of it) but yet they’re constantly looked upon to comment and lead. See: Jay-Z, Lebron, T.I. etc.

You have these two goofballs, one a supposed ex-drug dealer who can’t stop wearing European designer clothes for longer than 6 months and the other a YouTube real estate tyc00n up there talking about reparations. They promote that type of BS intentionally.

They know Black folks well and they know this is a celebrity driven culture, especially Black folks. So this is done to control the narrative. You asking questions you should already know the answer to

Marcus Garvey gave us a flag, not sure why we always forget this. It’s not just the colors, it was a flag

It was in response to this popular song called “every race has a flag but the c00n”

Pan-African flag - Wikipedia

Learn your history people. :unimpressed:

I wish Tone and Yvette would make up their minds on who's "qualified to have this conversation". Most of the time it's cuz _______ isn't educated enough, but when they DO encounter someone with the education, they move the goal posts and turn it against them to prove 'they're not like me and you' :gucci:





Seems like it all boils down to "You're not me and I should've been in the room" :francis:

Black people won't get reparations because we don't have the leverage to demand anything. We can't even stick to not supporting a brand because the average black person is walking around dead, dumb, and blind to what's going on. At this point, we have one foot in the permanent underclass grave because we're basically living in Pangea again and we are in competition with everyone but we want to be accepted and be friends.

Traditional family units, selective patronage, and anti-materialism are the only fix for this but we can't stand one another but yet we go out of our way to show off ON one another, so this is a pipe dream.

We can get it long as we put pressure on politicians

Yeah... you don’t need a degree from an ivory tower to bring about change... Elijah Muhammad stopped going to school in like the 5th grade or something... Malcolm dropped out in jr high
