Thank you so much! I'm sorry I'm just seeing this.

Right. I like to listen to a variety of people as each person contributes something different. I take away what I can and throw away the rest. I never agree 100% with any one person. I just wish that we can look at the big picture and come together on that. You don't have to be friends and don't...

Agreed! I hated the time when there was infighting as well. I don't think her sexuality was an issue and she never made it one, so I don't like when people say that her movement was an LGBT movement, when it wasn't. Ultimately, I tuned out during those times when the infighting was taking place...

Funny, I used to listen to her and even subscribed to her newsletter. But after the beef between her and the new black media (PBT, Tariq, TBA) she went on a blocking spree and blocked me for no reason other than I followed the others. That made me look at her side-eyed. Her fight for reparations...

I understand your point, I'm not dismissing it or saying the virus is not real. However, being vaxxed is not going to protect you from getting infected. If you're concerned about the virus, then it makes more sense to have the person tested for the virus and not just use the vaccine as the...

Same. I started exercising 30 min daily also.

LOL! You are correct about that. It's good that you learned early to appreciate your Black skin. I wish I had that teaching early. I had to do it on my own as a young adult.

That's excellent! I wish I would have really thought about HOW I communicated to my son and perhaps came to him from a different angle. But if I was as conscious then as I am now, I would have done things differently. I like the way you're teaching your son. It's a smarter way to go. My main...

Exactly! That's my point. It would have made more sense to ask us to take a test and if we test negative all is good. But to just dismiss me because of not taking the jab didn't make sense. So she's basically saying that it's ok if we were infected, as long as we had the shot.

Agreed. My side of the family is like yours'. We have continued to see each other over the holidays, birthdays, etc. They have all been jabbed and we don't treat each other any different.

You are so right. They are their own people and will make their own decisions. As they get older, many times, they see you as "old school," so they may not take what you're saying seriously especially when there are so many other forces pulling them in. Hoping that your son will take in what...

As a person experiencing it now, I always wondered what I could have done differently or where I went wrong? But the truth is the world is much bigger than you and much harder to compete with. I admit I wasn't as conscious when I was younger as I am right now, so I didn't really push the B1...

I came across this thread on a Facebook page and thought I'd bring it over here. Do we do a disservice to our kids by raising them in the suburbs around white people? I think so. Black kids that grow up around a lot of white people may have a sense of identity but tend to be very liberal in who...

This is some sad shit!! See what the liberal/social media is doing to our people? Making any and everything normal. I know some of our younger people are so influenced by the narrative being pushed that dating non-black is the way to go but this is some goofy shit. Ughhhh!

I never realized how they use distractions in between the messages they want to push. Everything is Ukraine now, but I believe they will be back on that C19 vax push soon. They will create another strain for which the 2nd booster will be used and those same people will run out to get it. It's...
