Let's say the USA granted us reparations but one of the contingencies of the payment was that we could no longer live in the USA or any of the NATO/European Union nations...would you take the money and leave? Where would you go? How would you start your life over again? Personally, I'd take it, link up with people who know how to move and shake, find a country to set up shop in like Kenya or Ghana and I'm out.

We can save ourselves just by donating $20 a month we black Americans in the United States every single adult can be a millionaire in the span of a few years..

They lost 3 family members in this Texas county jail. Someone needs to come up missing under the pure cover of darkness and the good juju of Ogun. TF?

Florida Republican congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna was outed by The Washington Post on Friday for lying about her Jewish heritage in a previous interview with the Jewish Insider in November 2022.

Not only is Luna almost certainly not Jewish, but also according to several family members, reports the Washington Post, Luna's paternal grandfather Heinrich Mayerhofer, who died in 2003, served in the armed forces of Nazi Germany when he was a teenager in the 1940s.

"I was raised as a Messianic Jew by my father,” Luna had told the Jewish Insider, clarifying that she identifies as a Christian. “I am also a small fraction Ashkenazi."

The Insider had interviewed Luna in reaction to the fact that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, known for her "Jewish space laser" conspiracy, had endorsed Luna's candidacy for Congress. "If she were antisemitic," asked Luna after claiming Ashkenazi roots, "why did she endorse me?"

“I in no way, shape or form would ever put myself in a position where I’m hanging out with someone like that, and so I just don’t see that Marjorie Taylor Greene is that person,” said Luna told the Insider. “If I see it happening on the right, I’m the first person to condemn it and say, like, ‘Hey, that’s not cool. I don’t align with that.’”

WATCH:

"In a federal lawsuit filed earlier this week, a family member of Emmett Till is demanding that Leflore County Sheriff Ricky Banks serve an arrest warrant from 1955 on Carolyn Bryant Donham for her role in the death of Till."

None of the family members' names are listed in the recent articles I found.

If you know Emmett Till's family, please talk to them and let them know that The Black Authority wants to speak with them and help them get justice.

How is it that some 87% of BW and 66% BM STILL vote for the Democrats’ party? When direct in front of their faces, so many heinous acts of atrocity and genocide. The Democrats are literally supporting Nazis. Lord help me understand.


What we need is organizing for a third party, headed up by the NBM and others.

How often do you go to Black history museums in/near your area? Here in the DMV, we have several nice Black history musems that I've visited, and the Reginald F. Lewis museum up in Baltimore is definitely worth the trip.
I've been to some nice Black history museums in other states, too!
What are some nice Black history museums in your area that you would recommend?

There are so many things to unpack. I don't like these types of podcasts because there is never anyone countering. He claims if there was a true meritocracy Harvard would be about 43% Asian instead of 20%

Login to view embedded media
My counter:

1. So given the choice of an Asian guy with a 4.0 GPA, 1550 SATs and all he did was study, nothing else, no extracurricular activities vs any non Asian, with a 3.8, 1500 SATs but he started a charity to feed the homeless, was captain of the school's basketball team, Harvard should choose the Asian guy? He uses the word 'meritocracy', which translates to grades only. Non scholastic stuff is subjective. Is helping the homeless more important than visiting senior facilities? Yale might think the former is better and Stanford think the latter.

2. This is really about anti blackness and anti affirmative action and we are the face of it. There is no more AA for us. White women took it over. Anyway, I've never, ever heard Asians and anti AA people talk about ending legacy admissions. Meaning, if one of your parents was an alum you get an advantage. And since Ivy league schools weren't letting blacks in any real numbers till the 70s an 80s, we lost generations of legacy entitlement. Legacy admissions is about money, their grades are consistently lower than others but they get in. Alums donate. You don't hear that being part of the convo.

3. You never, ever hear about holding athletes to the same standard. Stanford has a decent B-ball and football team. For a school that is as highly ranked as it is, its amazing. I guarantee you those basketball and football players wouldn't be able to get in otherwise. I never, ever hear Asians saying to ignore athletic ability. If so, Stanford, UCLA, Duke, Michigan b ball teams wouldn't be able to beat a decent city HS team.

4. So, instead of that 23% Asian students that didn't get into Harvard. He says it as if their life is over. So, did those Asians that Harvard didn't accept end up at Youngstown State and SUNY (State University of NY) or did they end up at Yale and Stanford? If you are able to get into Harvard you can get into any other top tier school. Those Asians ain't end up homeless. Like its some crime if they didn't get into Harvard.

5. Until you fix the K-12 education system of the schools blacks go to, this convo is dead. The HS in my immediate area sucked. The school didn't have AP courses that I needed to get into a top tier school but 20 miles away in the suburbs, Brad and Becky had AP everything. Not that they were smarter, just access to smaller class size, better facilities.

6. If all we are going to do is go on grades, then students won't 'waste time' with non school activities. We want them to be like the Asians who only study and don't do much else. A few take piano lessons, but they aren't trying to be part of the senior play or participate in any school activities as it takes away from study time. We want that? If so, accept the consequences.

7. There is affirmative action for white males but no one is talking about it. White males are one of the worse performing students these days. Not enough of them qualify for schools and colleges are quietly having a low key affirmative action for them.

How about ... Like 2020 😔
I like just put in the February pot of 🇺🇲 🐂💩

The Republican-dominated Mississippi house of representatives has passed a bill to create a separate, unelected court system in the city of Jackson that would fall outside the purview of the city’s voters, the majority of whom are Black.

The bill, which local leaders have likened to apartheid-era laws and described as unconstitutional, would also expand a separate capitol police force, overseen by state authorities. The force would expand into all of the city’s white majority neighborhoods, according to Mississippi Today. Jackson’s population is over 80% Black.

Speaking after House Bill 1020 passed on Tuesday evening, Jackson’s mayor Chokwe Lumumba branded the proposed law “some of the most oppressive legislation in our city’s history”.

The bill passed largely along party lines in a 76-38 vote and will now travel to the state senate, where Republicans also hold a significant majority. The passage was preceded by an intense, four-hour floor debate in which members of the state’s Black caucus made impassioned pleas to reject the legislation and compared the bill to the state’s Jim Crow-era constitution of 1890.

The legislation was proposed by house Republican Trey Lamar, who is white and represents a district in the state’s north-west, which is majority white.

Lamar, who does not live in Jackson, has cited county court backlogs and crime rates in the city as his motivation for the proposed law. During floor debate, Lamar was asked if any of his constituents had asked for the bill. He replied: “I don’t live in Jackson … but you know what I like to do … I like to come to Jackson because it’s my capital city.”

The bill, which is over 1,000 pages long, would expand Jackson’s existing capitol complex improvement district, which is patrolled by the state’s capitol police and currently covers parts of the city’s downtown that house state government buildings. The district’s expansion would cover areas in the city’s north, which, according to local press, include entertainment and shopping neighborhoods.

The new court district would feature two judges directly appointed by Mississippi’s supreme court chief justice, Michael K Randolph, who is white. There would be two prosecutors, appointed by the state attorney general, Lynn Fitch, a white Republican. And two public defenders appointed by the state defender’s office.

Proposed amendments offered on Tuesday included calls to make the judges residents of the Jackson area and to compel elections for the positions. Both amendments failed.

The proposed bill is the latest in a line of extreme legislation in the state, which last year introduced a sweeping anti-critical race theory law, which met vocal opposition from the state’s Black caucus.

Jackson has also suffered from a series of water outages due to ailing infrastructure, which has been chronically underfunded by the state for years. Black residents in the poorest parts of the city have been disproportionately affected.

In November last year, the city’s water system was taken under federal government oversight after the Environmental Protection Agency found the city in violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act.
