THANK YOU! YOU SAVED ME!

 Al Roker, as assimilated as they come, objects to his not covering Katrina 10 years later and they cancel his show.


Bryant Gumbel, as assimilated as they come, goes on Charlie Rose and says these racial killings must stop! Why? 


Because his son was arrested by cop for no reason other than being Black. And he rubs his own skin and says on the 


Charlie Rose show, 'My son! Because of this...skin color! Not your son, Charlie...MY SON!'


Years ago, a protester pleaded with Ray Charles not to play in a segregated theater and Ray listened. As a result, he 


was unwelcome from playing in the entire state of Georgia from 1961 until they 'welcomed' him to play in the general assembly in 1979.


According to movie lore, when the protester saw Ray turning away from the venue and he said 'thank you' 


to Ray, Ray Charles said, 'No...THANK YOU! You saved me! YOU SAVED ME!'


So, when we call racist progressives out on our wittle FB pages, instead of their response being 'What more do you want?', 


their attitude should be 'We're not worthy!' for telling them something that they should already know!


A SOUL IS A SOUL AND A LIFE IS A LIFE AND A LIE IS A LIE. 


And when we call people out on our wittle FB pages, they're not helping us...we're saving them by holding them to the standard of natural order.


We should ALL know this already and yet we need reminding. So when called out, instead of our attitude being, 


'Look..here's a concession we made, now be happy and run along', our attitude should be like Ray Charles': 'THANK YOU! You saved me! YOU SAVED ME!'

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION Decades ago, in my teens, my oldest brother and I had a talk where I said, “Can you believe that they’re having another gay pride parade?” He told me that he participated in a gay pride parade. Then we just stared at one another - and because many don’t know how to communicate without language, I will translate: Me: (But you’re not gay) Him: (True, but our struggle is their struggle and theirs is ours) Me: (Hmmm. Now I have to rethink everything because this is my brother whom I love challenging my core beliefs). I was persuaded that day. Today, my brother is long dead but I’m still reposting. That’s called CONVICTION.

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS We deal with systemic racism on all fronts. We mentor; we start programs to protect our kids; we fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces who funnel in the drugs and the guns with impunity then lock up our kids for having (or using) them. And where do kids get guns for drive-bys? (Rhetorical) And do an inordinate amount of crimes occur in Black spaces in Baltimore and Detroit and L.A. as opposed to NY because Black folk in our city have more character and higher morals? (Also rhetorical) It’s because cops are not allowed to pump these things in here! We do have CHILD rape rings here which rival Florida, Texas and possibly even California (California is a dense, big state). We need to fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces! And regarding the white people and the Black folk who worship them who aid systemic racism through complicity, ignorance and arrog...

SO WHERE’S THE UPROAR…?

 So where is the uproar when not one but two Black women world champions bow out from their sport because of the racist media for health reasons?  Their media of course focuses in on the “health reasons“ but we all know the truth!  Did Michael Jordan put a black tape over his mouth to stop speaking to the racist press for health reasons? Did Eddie Murphy only give interviews with Bryant Gumbel because of the racist press for health reasons? When we look at the interviews at the races press conducted with Mohammed Ally, they’re all about how he’s slowing down. No one mentions how our government took three years from him while he was in his boxing Prime! White people, boy! Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.
