I've responded / submitted to this forum with some pertinent statements regarding our people, reparations, and Mr. Obama. I'm a bit disturbed that my comments have not been posted to this (B.E.T.) site. No matter, I'll post it elsewhere, i.e., "www.Black in America", "HBCU", "EZINE ARTICLES", "BLACKPLANET.COM", ETC............................................................
BET does not have to post the truth regarding positive statements. However, if BET can post ridiculous, disparaging, racist, and belittling statements from people who hate and do not care for the truth of our heritage, I for one will refrain from indulging in dialogue regarding their negative reporting.
YES...THE MEDIA, HOWEVER ITS PRESENTED, IS BIASED AND DIVISIVE!
Obama Is No Fan of Reparations, Slavery Apology August 4th, 2008 He says that it’s better to focus on education, health care and other programs.
Sen. Barack Obama has introduced another thought into the mix that certainly won’t endear him to the crowd of Black thinkers who say that the United States owes African Americans back pay for hundreds of years of forced labor. “I have said in the past – and I’ll repeat again – that the best reparations we can provide are good schools in the inner city and jobs for people who are unemployed,” the Illinois Democrat said recently. But, at a time when Obama needs as much support from the Black community as possible. Find out what else he said at BET.com/News. Do you believe that Obama’s attempt to become the president of all Americans prevents him from standing up for such issues as affirmative action, reparations or a slavery apology?
WE ARE ALL IMMIGRANTS, VOLUNTARY OR OTHERWISE!
YES...we deserve all and any reparations. How about no taxes for ten years or so?
YES...the Jews, Japanese, and any other ethnic group has and continues to be supported by the U.S.
Yes they were paid! Do you really believe that we will get anything from them that HATE us? In reiteration..."It's not the things you know that hurt you, it's the things you know that just aint so!"
Obama’s' plan is the most logical one for now. KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE...those of you that have doubts and worries about Obama's stand on Black Issues…use your brain and stop feeding it with negativity! They lied on and about YAHSHUA / JESUS too! We have always been hoodwinked and bamboozled...will you allow it to happen again?
Will you allow the status quo to fool you again? Shame on you and woe on us if they succeed. The truth hurts and many people all over the world cannot handle the truth!
The journey of man began in AFRICA! EVERYONE ON THE FACE OF THIS PLANET IS BLACK.... ALBEIT, MANY BELIEVE OTHERWISE! DNA DOES NOT LIE...THE SEED OF THE FIRST MAN WAS / IS BLACK, i.e., EVERY STRAIN OF DNA IS CARRIED DOWN AND THROUGH THE GENES OF PEOPLE AND ALL LIVING THINGS! DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN CAIN AND ABEL? WHAT HAPPENED TO CAIN AFTER HE KILLED HIS BROTHER? DID NOT GOD BANISH HIM TO THE CAVES AND THE UNDERWORLD? WHAT HAPPENS TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY ARE TRANSPLANTED TO ANOTHER CLIMATE - ENVIRONMENT? YOUR PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES MORPH OR CHANGE TO ACCOMMODATE THE CHANGE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE!
IF YOUR WEAR JEWELRY - RINGS, TAKE IT OFF FOR A MOMENT AND LOOK AT YOUR SKIN - DOES IT NOT APPEAR TO BE LIGHTER THAN THE REST OF YOUR BODY? CHECK YOUR FAMILY TREE...IT BRANCHES OUT, YES? THE NATIVE AMERICANS, THE ASIANS, LATINOS, ETC..... THINK ABOUT IT. IT'S IN THE BIBLE...ALL OF THEM (the history of faith)!!!
YES...its' true that white people of this country owe people of color for their very existence.... their lives.... WE ARE OWED AND WE WILL BE PAID!!! JUST BE PATIENT.... YAHWEH / GOD HAS A PLAN.
A question was posed: "WHY DO WHITE PEOPLE HATE US (PEOPLE OF COLOR)?" WHY DO WE HATE OURSELVES? WHY DO WE HATE?
PEOPLE FEAR WHAT THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND! PEOPLE ARE IN DENIAL OF THEIR TRUE HERITAGE...THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO CONVINCE THE NON-BELIEVERS...GODS' WAY!
WE ARE ALL AFRICAN! KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE.... VOTE OBAMA…McCain AND THE GOOD-OLE' BOYS WILL ONLY WIN IF WE ALLOW THEM TOO!
PEACE AND LOVE MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, HAVE FAITH!
Although I believe there is only one human race, I think you are correct that DNA doesn't lie but the fact of the matter is that not all people are ready to acknowledge truth regards DNA and their true family evolving from one man in Africa.
I think more than anything that we should try to focus of the things we have in common and what we can readily agree on until we are ready to go further and discuss the greater things at hand that might not be as easy to digest, eh.
