Well if Engineers were in charge no one would sell shit cuz every sales slick would look like a EULA. So you need a dude to make the car but you also need the guy to come in and put leather on the seats and put in a good sound system. You need both. Working as an Engineer and as a Product...

Damn this brotha was sooooooooo damn dope. I bow to him symbolically…I need to move in his spirit.

We need more brothas with backbones globally, I like seeing the power play here. It’s great optics.

That’s interesting and is a similar concept I had to explain when I was an Engineer in Telecom. It’s not apples to apples but I would have to constantly explain to people that bandwidth is not the speed of your connection. There’s a reason why a 100Mbps connection with low latency and high class...

Which device did you get?

That’s facts though. If you had a pager you was ballin….I was born in 86 so based on your name I assume we grew up on the same era.

The lovely US Government basically had these sailors sail out to the middle of the ocean, told them to go on deck, duck, and then erupted a nuclear bomb without telling them. This is a short video of those sailors explaining what happened, multiple day they were able to see their through their...

They didn’t get to keep the oil but they were given currency in exchange for their stealing of the oil. There‘s a reason why volunteer militaries are more effective than conscripted militaries because the GI says ‘ok, I’ll help you do x if you pay me y” and so they give their all because there...

Resources are never for small minds, World Wars are fought over resources. The issue we are dealing with is much more evolved than at the time of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Right now we have the 7 headed hydra of intersectionality that's pulling the Black community in a bunch of different...

The easiest way to get people on code is by providing resources and that's the part we lack. How do you get your workers on code? Pay them. How do you get your Wife and Kids on code make sure they got food, clothing, and shelter. Since we don't have the ability to provide resources but our enemy...

He did do something for Black people, he was the inspiration for the "I aint reading all that shit" meme from 10 years ago.

Great contribution and welcome to the board. You have highlighted the issue that perplexes me the most about Dr. Umar. He is an AMAZING orator, he communicates Black issues better than most and he grips you instantly. But on the flip side there's so much drama, nonsense, chaos, egotistical...

I need to check that out. I used to use SheaMoisture until they sold to Unilever.

My sentiments exactly. A Black Darth Vader is not an accomplishment for a Black person in the Rebel Forces.

I side stepped it because it was a deflection. I was in the Air Force and while in it I was a willing stooge of White Supremacy, any way you slice it, if you're in the military that's what you are. You may not personally be a White Supremacist but you're definitely helping them continue their...

This is why I tell my son the real reasons behind the holidays and make it a learning lesson. He is going to give his teachers hell.

Man for me it really kicked in when I first went to Mississippi around 2000 and saw Confederate Flags and read books on Aliens. The Confederate Flags tripped me out, I remember walking in the country in the backwoods and saw a house with a confederate flag, I stopped dead in my tracks and...

Killing in itself Is not evil for example…killing for self-defense is different than killing in order to steal something you want. How can a Black man who helped White Supremacy overthrow governments, kill their citizens, and plunder their resources be honorable? Are the police who kill us in...

In case you are questioning the title, there’s been a period put on the end of Colin Powell’s sentence. Yes, he died and I know in the past he was revered for being the “first negro” in some white institution but is that enough anymore? Is having a Black head of the military an accomplishment...

Yeah it's real dope.
