There’s a lot of self-hate and Arab worshipping on that side of the continent. Just like a Black person here would hit you with the “I’m mixed with X” them fools over there will be like “I’m part Arab”. Especially those Habesha who may have the most exotic look of them all. They look down on...

Ok fam we have our first one booked. I’ll give a hint… …for the past 20 years he’s been telling people to man up. ArYkathaGOAT

Thanks brotha. I walked into a snake pit thinking the rattlesnakes would recognize my good intentions…NOPE! It is what it is. We will keep on trucking and that scripture you dropped was spot on. This year we tripled our engagement metrics if we do it again next year we will be a force to be...

I’ll accept this feedback but I got frustrated because he kept yelling and couldn’t control his emotions. He kept talking about he got called names and so it justifies him calling other people names and I told him to get counseling so he can heal. Marcel was constantly lying on me in the space...

Thank you Sis! I appreciate your support.

I give you props for admitting that you were off base in your initial post. It takes a lot to be able to do that

You nailed it. That’s exactly what they were saying and it’s so illogical.

Thank you brotha that means a lot. I’ve done nothing but advocate for Black people and they attacked me and called me a tether and off code because I’m not with dissing on code Black immigrants. But what we have to be cognizant is the people who were mad don’t post on here. They never were...

You clearly don’t know the difference between influence and control. I have influence over how he thinks but he has control of what he ultimate does and does not think.

Do you have kids? I have a son and no matter what I tell him he goes to school and does whatever he wants. Sometimes he makes the right choice, sometimes he doesn’t. As a parent you have a lot of influence but very little control when you think about it. They are their own people with their own...

mjlol When not understanding computers comes back to haunt you. This lady was demented and jealous of her own daughter.

What does that mean?

Once again, there is nothing that you can tell me that will change my mind, I just want to be honest with you. Do parents play a pivotal role in your success? Yes! Does a bad parent or upbringing doom you to a bad fate? No. My cousin for instance is in the position he is in because he wants to...

Our stories are way different too. It makes more sense to compare how the Swiss move to like let’s say Senegal, Nigeria, etc. You’ll be able to see why Switzerland is where it’s at now and why we here prisoner to Europe. If it happens it’s not going to be anything like how people imagine it...

Well you and I don’t have to agree, challenging each other’s viewpoints is what we SHOULD be doing. I was being intellectually honest with you by telling you that I will never agree with your perspective. You’re basically saying that what we learn up til the age of 18 is all the learning we...

I have to keep it a buck and just say that I will never agree with you on this at all. Your childhood plays on a huge role on who you are but you are not limited to your childhood. You have the ability to become who you want despite what your parents did or did not teach you. I’m not for any...

No, I’m not saying that I have no influences. I’m saying that after turning 18 I was able to become who I wanted to be so I surrounded myself with the influences that would get me there. If we didn’t have free will to be who we wanted to be I’d be a crip right now. I’m the product of a single...

I’m not trying to be pedantic but everything comes from someone or something. The book and the documentary example you gave are my whole point. It is our job to close in the gaps from childhood. We have to grab life by the horns and make it what we want with the tools we have at their avail. I...

Proper upbringing is important but once you become an adult you’re on your own and you can’t keep blaming your parents. You are responsible for identifying and closing those gaps on your own. If you need to go to therapy to do so, then do it. I grew up in a single parent household without a...

I have to take Jason Black's line and say that apologies are only accepted in Cash or Money Order.
