Bold-faced lies about Black men (Part 9)…American unemployment rates, an addendum on white fascist Bible narratives, and one mo’ bold-faced lie about Black men…

“The last place you’re going to find out the truth about Christianity, is in Christianity.”

--Dr. Phil Valentine

“…Black people think everything in the Bible is true. I question the intelligence of anyone who thinks everything in the Bible is true, or is supposed to be true. It’s allegory, stories told to illustrate a point at a time where very few people were reading books. And most of what went into the making of the Bible was copied from the “Egyptian” text. Now, if you want to get so dewy-eyed over the Bible, which is a carbon copy of a carbon copy, why don’t you go back and read the original Egyptian text?”

--Dr. John Henrik Clarke, from the "We have no friends speech"

Part 1.

An addendum on white fascist Bible narratives

Family, the other day I watched a Tariq Nasheed video on YouTube, where he had people calling in on the subject of man’s biological origins. Now, this one caller made an argument against all humans originally coming from Africa—but then the conversation took a strange turn. Within minutes, this man started talking about Noah from the Bible, and he referred to Noah as a “giant”. Now, Tariq countered by saying, if Noah were a giant, then how did he build an “arc”? The caller replied, “Well, I guess it was a big arc.” Then Tariq asked, well, if Noah were a giant, how did he fit two of every animal on the arc, and how did he clean up all the fecal matter of these animals if they were on this arc for forty days and forty nights? Basically, Tariq quickly broke down this guy’s Biblical arguments with common sense—and I happened to comment on this particular video. Now, my comment stated: It’s ashamed how people still think the Bible is an actual historical text. I guess this guy also believes Jonah survived in the belly of a whale for three days.

Now, someone responded to my comment saying: The “Noah flood” had been confirmed as fact, and this happened 8,000 to 12,000 years ago. To which I replied: well, if the Bible’s based on historical facts, can you explain how a virgin birth is possible? This same person replied: Hey, I didn’t write the book, I’m just saying you don’t have to believe every sentence to draw information from it. I then went on to explain how easy it is to debunk the fallacies within the white fascist narratives of the Bible, and how most Christians never go about researching real historical texts--they just stick to whatever Bible verses make them feel good. This is why I felt it necessary to debunk the “Curse of Ham” and the “400 years of slavery” myths connected to Black people in my last post--so at least the Black men and women who read this blog won’t have to live with the psychic burdens of this kind of misinformation.

So, after I was done debating this moron about the historicity of the Bible, I happened upon yet another of its verses dealing with slavery, and the verse is as follows: Peter 2:18, Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourself to your masters, not only those who are good and considerate, but to those who are HARSH. Now, this got me thinking, what Black person could read this and still follow the Bible, or be a Christian? Answer: a Black person who’s a mentally lazy anglophile—which unfortunately, most Black Christians are. Mind you, when I was debating the aforementioned brainwashed Christian, I told him: research is work—and Christians don’t like hard work. Meaning, it’s easier to just ignore the fundamental principles of your belief system, so you can rationalize your mental sloth. This said, I then realized I never wrote about the Kemetic (Egyptian) text the majority of the Bible was copied from.

This is the “Egyptian Book of the Dead” (left), or the “Book of Going Forth By Day” fam'. Mind you, this is called the Book of the Dead because it was placed in the coffin or burial chamber of the deceased, and was part of a “funerary” text which includes the earlier “Pyramid Texts” and “Coffin Texts”. This book contains some of the historical literature and spells our ancestors thought were most vital in the journey to the “afterlife”. Also fam’, the reason the Bible deals so much with Kemet or “Egypt”, is because the Bible is basically a copy of this book. Now, if you wanna’ investigate even further, you can look at a separate text called the “42 Laws of Ma’at” and you'll see where the “10 Commandments” come from. So, I’ve said all this to say, if you fancy yourself a “Black Nationalist”, or Black historian of any sort, you must remember…

RESEARCH WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!

Moreover, the larger lesson learned here is, the last place you’ll find out the truth about any organization, is IN the organization. You have to go outside of it, to get an objective perspective which’ll more than likely show you the true nature of whatever it is you’re studying.

Part 2.

American unemployment rates and one mo’ bold-faced lie about Black men

A couple of days ago, I was watching some YouTube videos when a "suggested" vid’ came up amongst my choices. It spoke about "Black unemployment", so I clicked on it. After I did, I saw this headline: “Black male unemployment is the highest in America”. Then, when I typed in the topic of Black male unemployment in YouTube’s search bar, several videos popped up with this same title—and the majority of these vids were uploaded 4 months ago. Meaning, this must've been the same time some stat was broadcast about this over the mainstream media.

Now fam’, when I saw this, steam came outta’ my ears. 'Cause yet again, whitey’s putting out the narrative of Black American men being the worst case scenario in every negative statistic. So, after calming myself down, I started to think, well, this MIGHT be true. Hence, what I did right afterwards, was pay a visit to my good friend “research”—and this is what “research” showed me…

So, according to this year's Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate for Black men rose to 6.1%. At the same time, labor force participation from Black men jumped to 68.9% in April. Mind you, this was amidst an overall dip in unemployment for Black Americans from last year. However, check out what “research” also showed me, when I paid it another visit five minutes later…

Now, prior to the “P(L)andemic”, Native Americans had the highest unemployment rates of any demographic--meaning, their rate was at 7.5% in February of this year. So guess where their unemployment rate is at now y’all? Wait for it…post-pandemic, meaning RIGHT NOW, the Native American unemployment rate is at 28.6%. Mind you, this rate is comparable to American unemployment during the Great Depression. So, this means what? It means…

NATIVE AMERICAN MEN HAVE THE HIGHEST UNEMPLOYMENT RATES IN AMERICA, NOT BLACK MEN!

Now, what pissed me off more than the lie itself, is how Black men made videos around this lie, explaining it as if it were the gospel truth. So I can almost hear people saying, well, you can’t really count “Native Americans” in unemployment stats, 'cause there’s really not much of them in the country—mind you, Black people are the real “native” and INDIGENOUS population of this country, but I’ll touch on this in another post. This said, I’ll give you “3” reasons why “Native Americans” shouldn’t only be counted in America’s unemployment stats, but I’ll show you why NONE OF ‘EM should be unemployed or “under-employed”.

Reason#1.

Reparations

In 1946, America’s Congress created the “Indian Claims Commission”, which was set up to hear “Native” historic grievances and compensate them for lost territories. Behind this, Native Americans were awarded $1.3 BILLION dollars for their losses—and this was back in the 40’s fam’.

Reason#2.

Casinos

Fam', 224 “Native” tribes were given “casinos” to operate by America’s federal government through generations old treaties, grants, and contracts which were created exclusively for them.  

Reason#3.

Tax Exemption

Like all other Americans, “Natives” pay federal taxes, but they don’t pay any state taxes for income earned within “reservation” boundaries--and their casinos just happen to fall within these boundaries. Moreover, as of 2015, the Department of Interior estimates America’s federal government allocates $20 Billion dollars a year exclusively to Native American tribes. Now, I realize I only said I’d give you “3” reasons, but since I’m ON ONE wit’ my good friend “research”, lemme give you one mo’, which’ll be...

Reason#4.

Education

Fam’, as of this year, Native Americans who’re California residents won’t have to pay any tuition or fees for public colleges in one of America’s largest university systems.

So y'all, this is yet another case which confirms this obvious statement: YOU CAN’T TRUST wHITE STATS FOR NOTHIN’!

Meaning, any Black man or woman reading this should be reminded to visit my good friend “research” whenever you hear some funky stats which don’t smell right--ya’ dig. Moreover, my friend research says, their door is always open to dispel any nonsensical misinformation chez whitey might throw at us.

And like Samuel L. Jackson said in Spike Lee’s classic film, “Do the Right Thing”: “That’s the double truth, Ruth.”

Part 1.

Memorial Day’s massive shootings and the “3” tenets of white fascism

Family, about a week ago, I was thinking my next post should definitely tackle the subject of religion and its effects on the Indigenous Black peoples of America. This is when I got wind of the 12 mass shootings which happened over the course of this Memorial Day weekend. Now, I’m still gonna’ tackle the subject of religion in this post, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the elephant in the room, which is this summer's spate of massive gun homicides. Mind you, a couple of posts back, when I said this was gonna’ be a “killing season”, I didn’t realize how prescient a statement this was.

Now, what’s most important is putting all this in perspective--meaning, there’s actually a silver lining to the storm clouds of these gratuitously egregious killings—and before you accuse me of sippin’ on lean or somethin’, lemme make these points clearer using the "3" tenets of white fascism, which are...

Tenet#1: Fear

First off, these killings are being allowed to flourish to keep America’s Indigenous Black populations traumatized--basically y'all, this is being done to keep our communities destabilized, 'cause in accordance with white fascist doctrines, when you want to better control any organism or organization, you throw it into chaos, and keep it there, until you offer the "target" a solution which fits your agenda. 

                        Tenet#2: Militarized law enforcement 

Family, these mass shootings are being used to reinforce reasons why American law enforcement shouldn’t be “defunded”. Remember the campaign to defund the police y’all? Welp, these mass shootings and incidents like the “smash and grab” mobs which seemed to disappear overnight (?), are “psy-ops” to keep white fascist institutions like the police not only operational, but loaded to bare with whatever kind of resources they need to keep up their campaigns of domestic terrorism on US. 

Tenet#3. Genetic survival

Understand, the real reasons whitebois, who're cops, are letting other inbreds shoot up churches and schools indiscriminately, is to put everyone on notice of who’s really got the artillery to not only wage some kind of revolutionary war, but to stay in a position of power in this country. Conversely, whitey's also letting these shootings happen to hide the most OBVIOUS TRUTH OF THEM ALL, which is...wHITEY CAN'T WIN A FIGHT WITH INDIGENOUS BLACK MEN WITHOUT WEAPONS! 'Cause just like I showed you in my last post with the example of James Shaw Jr., who disarmed one o' them whiteboi shooters--when they're without their high-powered rifles, or when they gotta' throw down wit' their bare hands, they're light work for the average brotha. Topping this off, whitebois--especially elitist crakas, not only realize they're the new American minority, but they know they're being bred outta' existence globally, which makes them even more "trigger-happy" around US. 

So you may be asking, what’s the silver lining in this situation? It's this y'all…the more the white fascist American social order REJECTS Black people, THE STRONGER IT'LL MAKE US! Meaning, the more oppressive and antagonizing this country gets towards us, the more we’ll be forced into unifying with each other, and the quicker we’ll be able to liberate ourselves from the tyrannies of white fascism. Now, you might be thinkin’, I don’t follow you bruh. Well, lemme put it this way…

UNITY IS THE STRONGEST WEAPON WE HAVE IN OUR FIGHT AGAINST wHITE FASCISM!

So the quicker we UNIFY, INSULATE, AND WILLINGLY SEPARATE OURSELVES from whitey’s American social order, the BETTER OFF WE’LL BE. Now, lemme define what I mean by “willingly separate” fam’—I’m not talking about goin’ back to Africa y’all, ‘cause we’re the ONLY PEOPLE INDIGENOUS TO AMERICA. I’m not even necessarily talking about physically moving from where we’re currently living, ‘cause America’s communities are already segregated. What I’m talking about is EXCHANGING AND CIRCULATING OUR RESOURCES WITH EACH OTHER (ALMOST) EXCLUSIVELY, like we did during “legalized” segregation, so we can survive and thrive like we did BEFORE INTEGRATION. This way, we won’t need chez whitey for nothin’—we’ll be FORCED into being completely autonomous. Mind you, traumatic events like mass shootings and losing access to necessary resources, are the only way we’re gonna’ separate from mr. whitefolks, ‘cause quite frankly, the majority of our people are still too in love wit' mr. charley to leave 'em—and this applies to ALL BLACK PEOPLE, FBA OR NOT!

So, let’s not get too emotionally involved in the mass shooting sprees we see happening around the country y'all. Instead, let’s keep focused on the goal of UNITY AND BLACK NATION-BUILDING, so we can stay clear-headed and EVEN-TEMPERED for the work we'll need to do in the future.

Part 2.

Damning the "Curse of Ham"

Family, no matter which Black neighborhood you go to in America, you’re guaranteed to find one commonality—there’s a church on every corner. Now, decades ago, the church was a place where our people could get resources like food, cloths, emergency shelter, and even money for bills. So, it had its communal benefits--but with the advent of “prosperity preaching” and government funding, the church was quickly turned into a kind of weekly fashion show, and a haven for oversexed Black women and homosexual Black men. Mind you, this is but one of the reasons for my writing about this topic--but mostly, it’s because of a certain incident I recently remembered.

Almost a year ago, I was speaking to one of my co-workers, who just happened to be a Black male Christian, and this guy told me in a casual conversation, “The devil operates with impunity.” Then, he asked me, “…uh, what does impunity mean?” I just shook my head and walked off. A week later, I saw this same guy talking to another brotha, and he was saying, “Black people are...” Then he sighed, before uttering, “…the Transatlantic Slave trade and the curse of Ham…” Now, not only was he taught this over the course of several decades, but he internalized it as the “gospel truth”—and you could see the inferiority complex it gave him, ‘cause he wore it like a cheap suit. Saddest part of all is, this guy had no alternative facts to debunk this misinformation with, and he wasn’t looking for any. His faith, pretty much doomed him to a mediocre life. Topping this off, this moron loved to denigrate the Black youth, ‘cause his church-going brethren told him to. He didn’t see white fascism as the enemy, he saw the Black youth as our community’s greatest problem. This said, I just wanna’ debunk this curse o’ Ham nonsense once and for all, or at least for the brothas and sistas reading this, so no one here has to carry around this crap theory in their heads anymore.

So the fable goes, Ham had sinned against the righteous patriarch, Noah, so God cursed his son Cannan and his descendants into perpetual servitude and slavery in the book of Genesis, 9:25-27. Now, due to this curse, Ham’s name in Hebrew was interpreted as meaning "dark or Black”--and just as "Cain" had a "cursed" mark on him (Genesis 4:15), this dark-skinned "mark" would be given to the “peoples of Africa” through Ham. So here’s where this biblical idiocy comes from y’all. This said, let’s get right into debunking this nonsense, ‘cause just writing about this pisses me off.

Firstly, the book titled, “The Curse of Ham”, by the author David M. Goldenberg, published by the Princeton University Press in 2003, reveals how the name “Ham” is not related to the Hebrew language, or to any Semitic word meaning “dark” or “Black”. Second, and this is the real kicker y’all—according to the Bible…

“HAM” WASN’T CURSED, CANNAN WAS!

THERE IS NO "CURSE OF HAM" IN GENESIS 9, OR ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE BIBLE!

Now, some biblical “scholar” reading this is probably saying, well, Ham’s SON CANNAN was cursed--thus, Ham must be the one who bore this “original sin”. Well, here’s my question, if this was the fact, why wouldn’t God curse Ham DIRECTLY? Moreover, since Cannan was the one directly cursed, why don’t they call this the CURSE OF CANNAN? I’ll tell ya’ why, ‘cause Ham is thought to be the progenitor of the “darker-skinned” people of the earth in the bible, thus, if you’re gonna’ rationalize why Black people should be enslaved, who better to name this curse after?

So, the next time some “Christian” talks to you about this curse, you can tell ‘em about Cannan, or you can do like me, and tune 'em out completely before walking off. ‘Cause time and time again, you’ll find, the people who know the least about Christianity, are Christians themselves. 

Part 3.

Debunking the "400 years of slavery" myth

Lastly family, here’s another historical bone of contention I’ve got with America’s, and the white fascist world’s “miseducational” system--the myth of Black Americans being enslaved for 400 years. This said, I’m gonna’ do something a little different here fam’…first off, in all fairness, let’s say I didn’t have any alternate facts to debunk this nonsense with. What I mean is, lemme play devil's advocate, and take these lies at face value, and see if they still hold up—and I’ll do this with the “3” leading lies about Black people’s enslavement in America, the first being…

Lie#1.

The historical dates of Black American slavery

Now, according to white revisionist “his-story”, the first 20 Black slaves from Africa, or Black people period, came to America on a ship back in 1619—and in December 6^th, of 1865, the Constitution’s “13^th Amendment” set Black Americans free by officially ending slavery. Well, if you subtract 1619 from 1865, you get “246” years—not “400”. So, right from jump, this whole concept is completely bogus fam’.

Lie#2.

Christopher Columbus discovers America

Once again, America’s miseducational system taught me another fallacy when they got me to believe a man named Christopher Columbus, who was actually named Cristobal Colon, discovered America in 1492. Well, you might be thinking, what’s this gotta’ do wit’ the Black American slavery narrative? Funny you should ask fam’, ‘cause it just so happens, good ol’ Chris kept a diary of his travels, and according to renowned historian, Leo Weiner of Harvard University, Chris wrote in one of his journal entries about tan-skinned “natives” who explained how “Black-skinned people had been there doing some trading with 'gold-tipped’ spears”. Also, at least a dozen other white “explorers” who were Chris’ contemporaries, like Vasco Nunez de Balboa, spoke of seeing Black-skinned “Negroes” in the “New World” when they arrived.

Topping this off fam’, archeologists have shown how the “Olmecs” had established the first “civilization” in America. Mind you, their empires date back from 1400 B.C. to 400 B.C., and if you look at one of the ancient “Olmec head” carvings (right), you can clearly see these were brothas. Now, some of you may say, c’mon bruh, everyone knows the Olmec civilizations were founded in Mexico, NOT the Americas. Well, this actually does makes sense, ‘cause Mexico was part of America y’all. More specifically, California, Nevada, Utah, Texas, Wyoming, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Arizona, and of course, New Mexico, were all part of the “Americas” before the 1900’s. 

Lie#3.

Deuteronomy 28:68

So fam', in Genesis 15:13, it reads, “And he said unto Abraham, know of a surety that thy seed shall be strangers in a land which is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them for 400 years.” Now, we just proved this has no historical basis in reality, but there’s also another bible verse, Deuteronomy 28:68 more specifically, which states, “And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again; and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.”

Now, this has also been used to “verify” the enslavement of Black people in America, but when I saw this verse, one thing stuck out immediately, and it was the last part, which says, “…ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.” So, I was thinking, if we were enslaved and physically sold, then why would this verse end with, “…and no man shall buy you.” Welp, long story short fam’, this isn’t talking about physical slavery, which is why this makes a reference to “bonded”, and not “bound” men and women. This reference is talking about “DEBT SLAVERY”. Ya’ know like college loans, mortgages, credit card debt, etc. Seems like prostitution ain’t the world’s oldest profession y'all, “loan sharking” is. Meaning, one of the best ways to keep any population in control is by making them believe in a “debtor’s” or “debt” system, this way you can enslave them without physical restraints. 

Now, if you’re a white fascist freemason who really wants to take social engineering to the next level, you can add the other “d-word” to debt when it comes to controlling the masses, and this word is “disease”. Debt and disease are the one-two, knock out combination which keeps people under the thumb of elitist oligarchs everywhere. Now, the moral of this story fam', is “NOTHING ESCAPES ANALYSIS” when it comes to white fascism. Meaning, you can’t take whitey’s word for ANYTHING! So, it’s imperative for the Indigenous Black diaspora to have alternate facts for everything concerning our well-being, ‘cause believing any tropes this social mainstream gives us is tantamount to social and psychological suicide in terms of our ability to take back our rightful place in this world--which is complete rulership over it.

And like Samuel L. Jackson said in Spike Lee’s classic film, “Do the Right Thing”: “That’s the double truth, Ruth.”

The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin (March 25, 1942 - August 16, 2018)

Aretha Louise Franklin was born on March 25^th, 1962 in Memphis, Tennessee to her father, Clarence LaVaughn “C.L.” Franklin, and mother Barbara (Siggers) Franklin. Aretha's father Clarence, was a Baptist minister and circuit preacher, while her mother Barbara, was a gifted vocalist and pianist.

Both Aretha's parents had 3 children outside their marriage, and due to their tumultuous relationship, they separated in 1948, when Aretha was seven. Barbara went to live in Buffalo, New York, where Aretha's family had previously resided, and continued visiting Aretha who lived with Clarence in Detroit, before Barbara died of a heart attack in 1952, when Aretha was 10. Several women stepped in to help raise Aretha, her grandmother, Rachel being one of them, the other was the late, great Gospel singer, Mahalia Jackson—and it was during this time, that Aretha taught herself to play piano.

Aretha's father Clarence, was known as a preacher with a “million dollar voice”, and his celebrity amongst Black church-goers gained an almost nationwide status. His church was frequented by the likes of James Cleveland, Albertina Walker, Martin Luther King Jr., Jackie Wilson and Sam Cooke. Clara Ward, a gifted gospel singer herself, was said to be romantically linked to Clarence, but they never married—although, Clara was in the Franklin home enough times, to serve as a role model to young Aretha, while she attended Northern High School. But in pursuit of a musical career, Aretha left Northern High after her sophomore year.

Just after her mother's death, Aretha began singing solos at her father's church. And recognizing his daughter was an exceptionally gifted singer, Clarence began managing her at age 12. Clarence also helped Aretha sign her first record deal with “J.V.B.” records. In 1956, J.V.B. put out a single featuring Aretha titled, “Never Grow Old”, with another song called, “You Grow Closer” on the record's B-side. In 1965, “Checker Records” released an album called, “Songs of Faith” with the previously recorded Aretha cuts on it, and the disc also featured four unreleased songs from her as well.

Now, according to Quincy Jones, the famously talented singer Dinah Washington, said to him, that Aretha was gonna' be the “next one”.

So, in 1958, Franklin and her father traveled to California, where Aretha met Sam Cooke. And shortly afterwards, she toured with Martin Luther King Jr.—and sang at his funeral in 1968. As a young gospel singer, Aretha spent summers touring Chicago's church circuit, and often stayed with Mavis Staples and her family.

At age of 18, Aretha told her father, she wanted to follow Sam Cooke into the “secular” world of music, and with that, she and Clarence moved to New York, in pursuit of a “mainstream” record deal. Her father produced a two-song demo that came to the attention of Columbia Records, where she was signed to a deal in 1960. And Aretha's first Columbia single, “Today, I Sing the Blues”, was released in September of 1960, and quickly reached the top ten of the Hot R&B sellers chart.

Now, the fact that Columbia Records had Aretha singing songs like, “Today, I Sing the Blues”, speaks to the fact that they didn't know what to do with her golden voice. Still, in the 1960's during one of her performances, a WVON DJ, announced that Aretha should be crowned the “Queen of Soul”—and the title stuck.

In November of 1966, after six years with Columbia, Aretha signed with the “Atlantic Records” label. And in January of 1967, she recorded the song, “I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)”—the song was released a month later and shot to number one on the “R&B charts”. *Note: now-a-days, the music industry has (largely) done away with the R&B chart listings, cause they know it's this genre, not “pop” music (Taylor Swift), that the public at large is really checkin' for and purchasing from (especially when ya' talkin' 'bout whitey). Mind you, “I Never Loved a Man” also peaked at number “nine” on whitey's Billboard's “Hot 100” charts. And if that weren't enough, this record's “b-side “, had the song, “Do Right Man, Do Right Woman” on it. And that topped the R&B top 40 charts.

In April of 1967, Atlantic had Aretha record her riveting version of Otis Redding's song “Respect”, which shot to number one on both the R&B and pop charts. This became her signature song, and with it, Aretha's status as an industry icon was confirmed. The song's also recognized as an anthem for the “Civil Rights” movement—and feminism.

Now, let's stop here.

The real reason Aretha's called the “Queen of Soul”, is that's what her voice spoke directly to.

When she sang, her melanated spirituality reached inside us and had a healing effect on whatever trials and travails we might have been going through. I remember as a young man, the first time I heard her sing the song, “Rock Steady”, on “Soul” Train. At the time, I didn't know much about her, but I was so mesmerized by her voice, that I couldn't turn away from the TV. What I've found out since is, the sound she produced, was the voice of our indigenous ancestors using her as a vessel, to let us get a glimpse of the abiding love, warmth, and benevolence that the overwhelming majority of us will experience, once we leave this 3^rd dimensional plane.

And let me also say, it sickens me, when white women try to hijack Aretha's spirituality, to co-opt the public into believing the nonsensical narrative of white fascist feminism.

Case in point...

A couple of nights ago on August the 20^th, MTV decided that Madonna should prepare a “tribute” to Aretha Franklin on their annual “Video Music Awards” (VMA) show. Now, as we all (should) know, Madonna's speech turned the air toxic at the VMA's—and there's 3 specific reasons why—and they're as follows...

Reason#3: People wondered, what the heck is Madonna wearing?

Well, while most people were befuddled at Madonna's wardrobe, when I saw her “get-up”, I nodded my head and though, it figures—cause here's what I knew: the term “Black Madonna” or “Black Virgin”, refers to the statues of the “blessed” Virgin Mary, and often the infant Jesus, with Black skin. Mind you, there are 400 to 500 “Black Madonnas” in Europe alone—and these statues, which are mostly in churches and shrines, are associated with miracles.

Now, you might be thinking, well, that's nice to know bruh, but what's that gotta' do with Madonna's attire? Well, peep this out...to the right and left of Madonna's picture from the 2018 VMA's, are pics of the “Black Madonna”. And like KRS-ONE said, “...if ya' wanna' little clarity, check the similarity.”

Mind you, the “Black Madonna” is who the Pope actually worships as a deity, as you can see to the left (and if you wanna' enlarge the pic, you can click on it).

Madonna was performing a freemasonic ritual right before our eyes, where she essentially tried to harness Aretha's (The real Black Madonna's) energy for herself. That's why she mentioned in her 6 minute speech, how she was inspired by Aretha, and that's why she thanked Aretha for being “our” Queen of Soul.

Essentially Madonna wants the “Queen of Soul” title herself, but she proved that night, that she'll never be anything but a third-rate “material GIRL”.

Reason#2: Madonna understands that she stopped being relevant years ago.

There's a now famous tweet being shown on this topic that states: “Does Madonna know Madonna didn't die”?

Now, what the person who “tweeted” this fails to realize is: Madonna may not be dead, but her career died a long time ago. And there's nothing she can do to resurrect it—NOT A DAMN THING!

Reason#1: Madonna not only knows that the gold standard of cultural currency is “Black Street Cred”, but she realizes that her leaving the R&B genre to be a pop princess, means she'll forever be locked out of that social construct.

Now, Madonna's 60^th birthday just passed—that's right y'all, the material girl, is 60. And supposedly, Aretha passed on her b-day. Mind you, I guess Maddy wasn't only pissed cause a fuss wasn't made over her birthday, but it seems like she's ticked off cause she was (and forever will be) outshined by Aretha's passing—and Maddy can't stomach that.

To top all this off, Maddy supposedly had her b-day celebration in Morocco, Africa.

Meaning, everything she's trying to do to align herself wit' “Black Cool Points”, is failing miserably. There's even footage of Maddy backstage at the VMA's conversing (and flirting) with Lenny Kravitz. And at one point in their conversation, Maddy says to Lenny, “...awards shows are all about betrayal—you feel me?” So Madonna's working overtime tryna' perfect our vernacular and get wit' our spiritual sciences, so she can stay in denial about her 15 minutes being up—and knowing they'll never be back again.

So, I've said all that to say this: no matter how hard Taylor Swift, Gwen Stefani, the late Amy Winehouse, or Maddy try in earnest to approximate the construct of Black Cool Points, they'll always fall short. For the simple reason that their degenerative pallor and the recessive DNA that goes with it, will never be able to access the kinds of spirituality that the indigenous people of this earth, Black men and women, possess as a matter of course.

And like Sam L. Jackson said, in Spike Lee's movie, “Do the Right Thing”: “That's the double truth, Ruth”.

REST IN PEACE, AND AWESOME POWER TO THE QUEEN, NETCHER, DEITY, AND THE REAL “BLACK MADONNA”, ARETHA FRANKLIN!

THEY'LL NEVER BE ANOTHER TO TAKE YOUR PLACE!

P.S.

Here's the Soul Train vid from 1972, featuring Aretha, that I wrote about earlier. And mind you, everything about Aretha is golden in this clip, from her voice, to her skin, to her hair, to the background's stage design. And even though the production value of this vid ain't the best, Aretha's lovely vocals will still shine through your computer screen. And, I defy you not to get goosebumps when Aretha raises her hands and sings, “Oooooh-hoooo” at the bridge. Classic stuff, enjoy.

 

Dr. Phil Valentine and what the Black christian and 'conscious' communities have in common...

I remember back in late 2013, one of my favorite metaphysicians, Dr. Phil Valentine, was slated to have one of his lectures in Harlem, NYC. Unfortunately, due to my work schedule and other commitments, I didn't attend this lecture and regretted it afterwards.

Fast forward to 2015. Recently, I was poring over YouTube videos, and came across a recording of the Dr. Phil lecture I missed in 2013, so I clicked on to watch it.

Now, to my surprise, this lecture was about proving who Barack Obama really is. I say this was surprising 'cause Dr. Phil usually deals with the occult practices of our ancestor's Black spiritual sciences. He's usually waxing philosophic about themes like sacred geometry and how whites have stolen our spiritual sciences and given us religion so the Black Diaspora will be less powerful. But since it was Dr. Phil, I watched the lecture anyway. When I finished viewing his speech, I was actually glad I didn't attend his lecture. Here's why...

Now, Dr. Phil went through the paces of showing how Barack Obama is tied to white supremacist freemasons, no surprise there; but he also exposed how Barack's original name was Bari Malik Shabazz, who was born in New York City instead of Hawaii, and how 'Barack' has several social security numbers associated with his name. But truthfully, I understood who Barack had to be to even get his position, so again, that stuff wasn't a surprise to me. Beyond this, Dr. Phil said he'd been contacted by white 'birthers' who wanted to discredit Barack and said he'd went on a radio show with one to bring out some of the evidence he found. The reason I thought that was a mistake was white people don't really want to know the truth about Barack's past, they just want him discredited because he's Black. Period. I notice none of the 'birthers' ever acknowledge the fact that John McCain was not born in america. John McCain was born in Panama! Don't take my word for this, go look it up. Now, what they'd come back with is the fact that McCain was born on an 'american' army base in Panama, so technically, this makes him american. But could you imagine if this was the case with Barack? These gun-toting, survivalist inbreds would wage a full-blown revolution in this country. Then, the lecture took an even more dastardly turn.

About mid-way into the lecture, Dr. Phil read from one of his books, 'The wounded womb', and basically said that 'jews don't like white people'. He also went on to say, some pale-skinned degenerate calling himself a jew, told him how their main objective is to have their 'race' proclaimed as kings of this earth and how they wanna' make the 'gentiles', all the rest of us, their slaves.

Now, let's get a few things clear right off the bat: 'judaism' isn't an 'ethnicity' or a 'race', it's a 'religion'...PERIOD! Meaning, NO ONE IS BORN JEWISH!

Every Black person reading this needs to have a crystal clear understanding of that fact. Now, there are certain facial features or traits we attribute to jews, like dark hair and eyes, but ultimately, these are WHITE PEOPLE WHO'VE ADOPTED THE JEWISH RELIGION...PERIOD! So the statement that 'jews' don't like white people is just meant to confuse the Black Diaspora, because in this case, the JEWS ARE WHITE PEOPLE. 

Every white jew can trace their ancestry back to some country in europe; their 'religious' home though, they will attribute to isreal. But another thing they don't want Black people to know is that isreal IS IN AFRICA. This is where the religion began and this is the continent isreal is connected to. Some people say isreal is connected to 'middle eastern asia' which is geographically incorrect. Firstly, if you look at a map, you'll see isreal is clearly tethered to Egypt, which of course, is also in Africa. And what whites call the 'middle east' is really 'southern asia'; and this is where whites claim isreal really is. Funny though, I've never heard a jew refer to themselves as 'asian', have you? Isreal sits on the tectonic plate of the continent of Africa, but don't tell a white jew that unless you're ready for an argument. Even the titles jew and judaism come from one of our ancient Black African deities 'Djehuty'; and europeans just abbreviated this name to call themselves 'jews'. Truthfully, half of them can't even rightfully call themselves jews because the majority of them don't practice their religion. They just give themselves this title.

Now, the sentiment that jews don't like whites coming from someone like Dr. Phil, a Black 'master teaching' metaphysician, makes the message all the more dangerous. Now their might be some tribal or 'class' issues between jews and other white people, but that all goes away when these two groups of whites continually gang up against the Black Diaspora. That's why my 'religion', if I have one at all, will always be Black Nationalism. 'Cause this does away with any petty tribal or 'clique-ish' in-fighting that might arise between Black people with differing ideologies. And what makes Black Nationalism exquisitely dope is any Black person can keep whatever religion or ideology they're tethered to, just so long as under the auspices of Black Nationalism, we put those nonsensical differences aside when it comes time to fight off whites, asians, or any other kind of non-Black people.

Now, as I continued listening to the lecture, it got even more insidious. Because Dr. Phil stated that the elite coteries of jews, in the interest of some sort of ethnic harmony, would forbid the mating of whites with other whites. So their greatest and most dangerous enemy, the 'white man', could be bred out of existence. So, what Dr. Phil specified, according to this jew, is they will force Black men and women to mate with white men and women in an effort to rid the planet of the pure-bred 'white' menance. 

Now, before I respond to the last point, I want everyone reading this to know that Dr. Phil began his lecture with a ritual blessing ceremony. He recited a blessing in the Medu Netcher (our people's original language) and at the end of that, he asked the audience to recite the words 'Ma'at Kheru'; this roughly translates to the term 'truer voice'. Now, I do know a few words of the Medu Netcher myself, and I know the word or diety 'Ma'at', not only deals with truth and justice, but also 'balance'. And what viewing this lecture told me was for far too long I've been hard on the Black christian community, and not hard enough on the Black 'conscious' community. And I think the Black conscious community may be just as bad as the christians. Here's why...

The majority of Black people have christianity forced or foisted on them in childhood as the only way to attain any kind of moral compass. But when we get older and can decide for ourselves where we'll invest our energies, as far as spiritual matters go, a lot of us turn to the Black conscious community looking for some sort of ethical alternative. I know I did. And if you don't have the intellectual curiosity, or the time, to research and investigate the info. you're getting out of the conscious community, you'll take what they say, internalize it, and live your life accordingly. Case in point, the aforementioned statement Dr. Phil made saying that elite jews are going to manipulate whites into mating with Blacks, so whites could be bred out of existence. Now, if you were to take this statement at face value, it could make some sense. But if you filter this statement through your melanated mind, you'll see this is a trick white jews are playing on 'conscious' Black folks. 'Cause who the white jews will really be getting rid of by manipulating Blacks and whites to mate with each other is the PURE-BRED BLACK MAN AND WOMAN; WHO CAN BREED BOTH WHITES AND WHITE JEWS OUT OF EXISTENCE! See what I'm saying.

There was another instance recently, where I was watching a lecture given by the occultist teacher 'Brother Panic'. Now, this brotha's teaching style deals with the use of too much profanity for my tastes, but, his methods are right on and righteous. I've used one of the divinations I've learned from him quite extensively and it's helped me a lot. But in this particular lecture of his, he was talking about people signing up for his classes. He said he had a reasonable payment plan for those who might be hurting financially; then he said, one of the payment methods he discontinued was one where he collected the course fee after his lectures. He then said he had to stop that because, and I quote: “You know...nig@ers”. There was another instance where a very knowledgeable brotha named 'Tariq Nasheed' was speaking at a radio show, and when someone called in and said a fight broke out amongst some 'conscious' brothas, Tariq said, “Yeah, I heard they were acting 'nig@erish'. Now, brotha Tariq is also very knowledgeable and created a very powerful series of documentaries called 'Hidden Colors', that talks about the Black roots of every ethnicity and culture.

Now, if you've looked at this Blog for a hot minute, you know I've written posts about the origins of the 'n-word'; and for the record, this word comes from our original language I mentioned previously, the Medu Netcher. In that language the word 'Negus' means 'King'. It was a title. Coincidentally, this is where the english get the word 'Regis' from, which also means king, as in the words 'registrar' or 'registration'. The word 'Nagas' was the name of a ruling ancient Black tribe in asia, and that very word means divine. Now, the words Negus and Nagas is where the river 'Niger' got its name from. And when the pale-skinned degenerates we know as white people came to take us from our home land, especially around the areas of the Niger river; when they got us to the shores of ameica, they would crook their fingers and say to us, “Come over here you 'Niger'.” And from this use of the word Niger, came the white deragatory term 'nig@er'.

But back to my point about brothas 'Panic' and 'Tariq'; now, I understand they know the history of this word, but for the Black person just getting this information or looking to these brothas for some kind of alternate spiritual guidance or ethics, what are they to think? Know that when you as a Black person hear the 'n-word' used in a context of negative behaviors exhibited by our people, this triggers your white supremacist induced hatred for not only yourself, but your people too. And I'm sure they understand this but they're not doing anything about it. They must also know or should acknowledge, how Black people are made to hate themselves more than any other kind of person on the planet.

But getting back to Dr. Phil's lecture, after he finished, he opened up the floor for questions. One Black woman asked how could we survive the rise of jewish power and the next world war as he explained in the latter part of his lecture. And Dr. Phil said, “Well, that will take some organization...it has to do with coming together in coalitions...” Which means that Dr. Phil and I have come to the same conclusion, that being, what we need and the only thing that will save us, is UNITY!!

Here's the problem though, a people can't have any unity if they hate themselves and each other. And this is why I talk ad nauseum about meditation and reconditioning the subconscious mind, 'CAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY WE'RE GONNA' GET OUT OF OUR WHITE FASCIST INDUCED SELF-HATRED!!

AND IF OLDER BLACK FOLKS LIKE MY GENERATION ARE TOO FAR GONE TO REALLY CHANGE, LET'S AT LEAST TEACH THIS TO THE NEXT GENERATION, SO THEY MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE AT CHANGING THEIR LIVES COLLECTIVELY!!

Now, the last picture on the right of my triptyched header, is one of a 'conscious' brotha who puts on a lot of conscious 'debates' and his name is Sa Neter. He is the leader of a think tank called the 'House of Konsciousness'. And in this think tank you have every stripe of conscious Black brotha, you've got Black Moors, Muslims, Black Isrealites, Atheists, etc. Only this organization is just like the Black church, whereas they have so many denominations and dueling ideologies, that they never get together to get anything done. And you also need to know that at the head of every religious or conscious faction I've named, is a group of white supremacist freemasons running the show. Sa Neter's one himself.

My final point is this people, CHRISTIANITY WON'T SAVE US, BLACK JUDAISM WON'T SAVE US, THE BLACK 'CONSCIOUS' COMMUNITY WON'T SAVE US, BEING A BLACK MUSLIM WON'T SAVE US, THE ONLY THING THAT WILL SAVE US IS BLACK UNITY!!

And again, you don't have to give up your current religion or philosophies to be for Black unity, you just have to understand one thing: when a group of us get together, we should drop ALL our petty differences so we can fight off any force attacking us.

This brothas and sistas, is our ONLY salvation.

What this Blog CAN and CAN NOT do for its readers...

"...the bitter medicines are usually the most effective."
--Shahrazad Ali

Recently, I wrote a Blog post titled 'Are you a sex toy for white people', in response to what I see as the Black Diaspora's willingness to avoid dating each other, so we can wind up oversexed and alone in decade-long pursuits of whites and other fair-skinned folk to marry.

Now, on this post, a commenter emphatically stated how they attempted to share the concepts of this Blog with other Black people who had a complete aversion to its message. This person also said, looking from someone else's perspective, that the concepts presented here were a 'bitter, painful pill to swallow, when you realize how your people as a whole have been systematically destroyed and exploited'; (and if it was 'Clair' who made this statement, I just wanna' say thanks for the insight and thANKHS for hangin' in there with a brotha, 'cause I know it ain't easy). But after reading this comment, the above quote (beneath my pictured header) from Shahrazad Ali popped into my mind (and once again, if you don't know who she is, google her). 

And I agree, the concepts presented here are 'bitter pills' for the Black Diaspora, but I'm presenting them to not only stop our 'systematic destruction', but to help us see how our loneliness, relationship-wise at least, comes from the self-hatred bred into us, so we can finally get out of it.

Now, the above comment was preceded by another comment made by someone calling themselves, 'Conga Dan'. 

This person basically made points stating why this Blog's doctrines are not helping anyone, especially not Black people; and how I'm just engaging in a self-righteous recital of stats and meditative exercises...especially pertaining to how our diaspora would be able to find relationships with 'good' Black men and women through these meditative practices. 

So, I've decided to emphatically declare what a reader of this Blog can and can not expect from it; thus eradicating any doubts about what someone can or can't glean from frequenting this space. 

First, let's explore what someone CAN NOT expect from this Blog:

1.) This Blog CAN NOT get you into a relationship with a 'good' Black man or woman within a week!

If you want a 'microwaved' solution to the complex problem of why so many Black men and women wind up oversexed and alone at fifty, this is not the Blog you wanna' read!

Let me say again, if you're looking to snap your fingers and make the ideal Black man or woman appear, or to get rid of the subconscious self-hatred keeping you out of relationships with 'good' Black men and women in minutes, this is not where you're going to find it.

Beyond that, here's the sentiment I'm starting to hear over and over again from commenters on this Blog...'is meditation all you can offer me?'

Let me make one thing abundantly clear...and this fact is really why I started this Blog in the first place...

IF YOU ARE A BLACK MAN OR WOMAN WHO IS CONDITIONED TO HATE THEMSELVES AND OTHER BLACK PEOPLE SUBCONSCIOUSLY, YOU HAVE NO CHANCE OF BEING IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH A 'GOOD' BLACK MAN OR WOMAN...PERIOD!

THE GAME'S OVER FOR YOU!

Okay?

You will wind up another statistical Black man or woman who's again, oversexed and alone at fifty after spending years being a sex toy for white, asian and spanish people...especially if you have a college degree!

And here's the real rub, 99.9% of Black people are conditioned to hate themselves and Black people as a whole...AND THEY DON'T KNOW IT!

And it's the not knowing that's a killer!

Why do you think white supremacists have done so much work, especially in the american educational system, to condition us to think of ourselves only in the context of slavery and Martin Luther King, a pacifist who died violently? It's cause they want our psyches riddled with shame and self-loathing, so we won't start relationships where we could pro-create and consequently breed them out of existence, 'cause we have the most power to. 

Let me give you an example of how well white supremacists have done their job of making us hate ourselves; this was 'Conga's' first question on the comment she last left on my Blog:  

'how the hell can the white man abuse us more than our own people....'

Here's the answer: By conditioning us to hate ourselves through two decades of covert programming via the american educational system and the media, almost guaranteeing Black men and women will have problems forming relationships for the rest of their lives! And making sure the programming we, Black men and women, get to hate ourselves, is ten times worse than what's given to any other ethnic group! 

And you can bet your bottom dollar, whitey sure as hell doesn't get this kinda' conditioning to hate himself, even though he's the most wicked and murderous person on the planet!

So here's my question to Conga, why are you so willing to forgive whitey but not Black people? Do you even see this as a problem?

So when people say they need more than 'meditation', understand what this mediation is offering...it's offering a way to recondition us out of those decades of subconscious programming, so we can in fact, love ourselves enough to attract that 'good' Black man or woman again. 

Also, understand, if you are stuck in a mental paradigm of self-hatred, you could go to work five days a week and sit directly next to a 'good' Black man or woman, and you will not see them; 'cause you're either too busy pursuing a white, asian or spanish person; or, if you do go out on a date/dates with that Black man or woman, some differing doctrine, theory or ideology will cause you to kick this person to the curb, triggered by your subconscious hatred for them, and you will wind up back at square one, being a sex toy for fair-skinned folks again.

And this is NO theory, I see this happening EVERYDAY!

I can hear people saying, well if the differing theory, dogma, ideology, etc. causes you to get in screaming arguments all the time, who wants to stick around for that? I'm not including screaming arguments or physical violence in the above example, 'cause I remember seeing one date between a Black man and woman on TV, and because one of them literally pointed at the other person to make a point, and not in a malicious way mind you, the other person canceled the date right there and then. 

I mean, think about it, why would any sane Black person choose hating themselves and other Black people over hating whites and the white supremacist institutions that made them hate themselves in the first place? It's because you've lived with your self-hatred so long that it's familiar, comfortable and it FEELS COMPLETELY NATURAL!  

I understand people wanna' be able to say a phrase, a prayer or swallow a pill to make this problem magically disappear; and hey, if you can find that, by all means go for it. But the human condition shows us that even techniques with speedy results like hypnosis have to be 'maintained' daily, bi-weekly or monthly, to keep their effects. 

So please understand, this Blog's doctrine is not a quick fix for the Black Diaspora...it is a fix, but not an instant one.

2.) This Blog CAN NOT make you change if you really don't want to!

Meaning, if you, in your heart of hearts, really don't want to change, then be honest with yourself...and DON'T!

What has me shaking my head is how people like 'Conga Dan' will go on these tangential rants with zero intention of ever doing anything to correct their methodologies or ideologies on how to attract a 'good' Black man or woman...they just wanna' argue reasons why they can't or why my doctrines won't work. 

And understand, I know how frustrating it is to go through this, 'cause after all, we only have one life to live; but bickering and lobbing condescending insults isn't the answer.

Moreover, I bet not one of the people reading this Blog even TRIED the meditative exercise I detailed on another post. Yet they wanna' say...is that all you can offer me?

I want to make this perfectly clear...this is WORK! It is not easy or passive; you have to make an effort to actually do it. 

Now, for the intrepid and diligent persons who actually do the exercise(s), I can assure you, the results will be miraculous. 

And again, if you're currently content and happy with your life, by all means, please go be happy! But if you're not and you want an answer to why it is so hard to find a 'good' Black man or woman to marry, then you're going to have to do something different than you've been doing!

And that may not include my meditative exercises...but you're going to have to do SOMETHING DIFFERENT! 

And I know a lot of you are saying, I am doing 'something different' by dating a white, spanish or asian person...and this is why so many of us wind up, like I continually say, oversexed and alone at fifty; 'cause all we're getting by dating these people is SCREWED!

So, by all means, let's stop letting white, spanish and asian people use us for their sexual conquests like handi-wipes! Unless you just don't care what happens to you in terms of future relationships...and if that's the case, you, as a Black man or woman, shouldn't be reading this Blog in the first place!

Now...here's what you CAN expect from this Blog...

1.) You can expect when you actually do the meditative exercises I offer, to, as a Black man or woman, love yourself more than you ever have in your life. 

And this is not hyperbole. 

Once you do the meditative work and offer your subconscious self-loving affirmations, especially pertaining to your African skin, facial features, hair texture, etc. a new world of peace and witnessing how much better we look than whites will appear before your eyes where it never existed.

And this is how our natural melanated minds are suppose to be working everyday!

Once you begin to truly love yourself for being Black, THEN you can attract other Black men and women who feel the same way...i.e. those 'good' Black men and women we're all wanting to be with.

Then, when you go out with this Black man or woman, you won't have such a guard up where any little thing that goes wrong will be an excuse to get rid of that person and go 'wasp-hunting' again. 

You see how this works?

And these changes can take place within the span of two to four weeks...and I'm saying the first 'noticeable' changes can occur during this time. 

Doing this over the course of months and years will yield even greater benefits. And, since repetition is the key to this, it has to be done daily or at least every other day.

Thus, I've dedicated myself to doing this meditative work daily for the rest of my life, so I don't ever lose any of it's benefits. Remember, we're reconditioning ourselves out of decades of self-hating conditioning, you can't do that overnight. 

Also remember, the finding of a 'good' Black man or woman starts with YOU!

The saying 'opposites attract' is incomplete. What it doesn't tell you is opposites attract up until the point where the novelty of their differences ware off and you usually wind up with someone who's just like YOU.

Now, this should be all the reason you need to do these meditative exercises, but there's one more perk they offer...

2.) These meditative exercises can be applied to ANY goal or behavioral modification you want to do in the future.

You want to stop biting your nails?

Apply the right affirmation and your nail biting will stop.

You want to lose weight?

Apply the right affirmation and the weight will come off.

Scared of the dark or public speaking?

Again, apply the right affirmation and these will slowly disappear.

Are you seeing the benefits of these meditative exercises now?

It's all about the subconscious mind people!

If you really want to change behavior, this is where you must go!

And this is why you can't pray this self-hatred away. It's because not only does prayer leave you in the limiting confines of 'praying and hoping', but it only deals in the 'conscious' mind. And anyone who knows anything about behavioral conditioning can tell you, in the battle between the conscious and subconscious...THE SUBCONSCIOUS WILL ALWAYS WIN OUT!!

The reason for this is, your subconscious needs to be the more powerful of the two because it controls more vital biological functions. 

For instance, imagine if you had to think about breathing. How would you sleep?

Imagine if you had to think about keeping your heart beating...any lapse in 'consciousness' could be fatal.

But we don't have to worry about this because the 'subconscious' takes care of all that, and again, that's why it's the most powerful part of the mind. 

And that's why it's such a bit@h to recondition!

So, I hope this answers the majority of people's questions about this Blog's doctrine and mission. 

Now, if what I detailed is something you can get wit', hey, let's get down...if it ain't...well, thanks for the time. I didn't come into this thinking my credo was going to be massively popular. But rest assured, I'm still working on the tome that will detail more in-depth and comprehensive methods of meditative exercises for us to heal ourselves; my e-book 'How to heal the rift between Black men and women' is on its way! So please, stay tuned!

Truthfully, I'm really looking for a handful of dedicated souls who I can eventually meet up with in real life, so we can actually build something to benefit the diaspora. 

So, again, if that's you...welcome aboard; if not, I ain't mad at ya', there's literally millions of other Blogs to choose from...I hope you find one that's more suited to your sensibilities.

Peace and be well...
