Reflecting on the role of black artists in addressing a racist society, Minaj spoke about the backlash Kanye West faced after announcing, "George Bush doesn't care about black people" during A Concert for Hurricane Relief in September 2005.
"I feel like when Public Enemy were doing 'Fight the Power,' we as a culture had more power — now it feels hopeless," Minaj says. "People say, 'Why aren't black celebrities speaking out more?' But look what happened to Kanye when he spoke out. People told him to apologize to Bush!" http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/nicki-minaj-on-black-artists-speaking-out-look-what-happened-to-kanye-20141230
Interesting that in 2015 with a black dumbocrat in the white house she feels black celebrities can't speak out regarding black issues.
Sounds like she knows any criticism of Obama is dangerous to her career.
The exact opposite of the "dissent is patriotic" dumbocrats kept saying during the bush regime.
I don't like most Democrats or most Republicans, but I believe Muslims are unfairly stereotyped and criticized. Democrats, Republicans, and our media want wars with Muslims. Iran is on their list. A million people in Tehran protested the 9/11 attack. 98% of the Iranian voters in Iran voted for presidential candidates, including the one who won, who wanted to release the hostages during the Carter days. But Reagan and Khomeini had a deal to hold them. Iranians have a young population that wants coca-cola and blue jeans. They should be our best friend. But Israeli PACs, oil companies, and war profiteer corporations own our politicians and media.
Look at all the Palestinians killed with your tax money recently. Iraq would be a lot better off if we had never attacked them, and that goes for the Christians who used to live there peacefully too. LBJ covered up the state sponsored attack on the USS Liberty, by Israel. I'm not for knee jerk support or opposition to any side. I'm for justice and fairness. Christian churches aren't overly persecuted here. They don't even pay taxes. There is always a push to kill Arabs though.

What's the difference between religions to dumbocrats?"
Oh, I dunno, maybe it is the fact that there is a large and vocal segment of the GOP that wants to install a Christian theocracy in Washington and every statehouse, in defiance of our Constitution's Establishment Clause.
Meanwhile, Muslims make up a very disempowered 1% of the U.S. populace and cannot dictate governmental policy to anyone. As a group, they pose no threat to democracy. (Yet ludicrously, this has not stopped numerous Republican politicians from freaking out about the possibility that the imposition of "Shariah law" is imminent in the U.S.)
Furthermore, religions are belief systems and are not off-limits from being questioned, provided the criticisms are fair and accurate.
Most of the time (though not always), the people criticizing Christianity are taking issue with actual Christian doctrine. On the other hand, the Islamophobe lobby in this country pretty much always criticize the Koran for being a terrorism manual -- which is total bullshit, not based in any facts.
This is the difference between "skepticism" and "bigotry," but you won't see that because you don't want to.
No one's going to install a "Christian theocracy" anywhere.

11:59 AM ---------------- Maybe you are right. Still, billions of people have faith: Hinduism, Islam, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Christianity and some others I don't know about.

Perhaps what you might well have said that religious practices find their origins in a fear of the dead, not of death. All ancient cultures pass down a deep concern over the dangers associated with the dead, themselves, who will not remain dead. In Islam, burial must take place before sundown the following day and the dead must be bound. In Judaism, the dead must be buried quickly and likewise bound. In Christianity, the dead is imprisoned in a casket. In both Christianity and Judaism a Wake is often celebrated in which the corpse is closely observed, even through the night, before being locked finally in the casket to be buried. Why such efforts to imprison dead bodies if so harmless? Why such concern if there is not real danger?
I can only tell you this. I have walked this earth longer that you would ever believe and I know that these fears are well founded. There is a place of between for some who experience a physical but not spiritual death. In that place, the laws of life and death are suspended. The laws governing the demise of the physical body do not apply and so hunger persists. So, you see, there is an existence between life and death. I know because I now languish here in all of time unable to rest. For that gift is not mine to possess.
"I dunno, maybe it is the fact that there is a large and vocal segment of the GOP that wants to install a Christian theocracy"
Retarded statements like this keep the dumbocrats in power."
Not so retarded when the gop keeps running candidates like Rick Santorum, Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal all of whom are serious theocrats running for President. Also look at the number of Republican controlled school districts who want to put creationism in science books. It is what it is.
You ask a splendid question. Cremation is not in each case necessary for not all recieve the gift of darkness. Therefore, care must be taken to determine then if wise to exhume the bodies of those suspected undead who are observed to return as Vampires and to cremate them, or at any rate entirely to bind them in some other manner. And thus, at length, you would be freed from the importunity of these phantoms such as I who nowadays are far less frequently to be seen in this country than in former times due to the popularity of cremation. Yet, such a blessing was not mine lending me great understanding of the Roman slogan "Away with the cemeteries!" For that empire paid a dear price for its failure to tend properly to the apparent departed and for its embrace of the Christian Blood Cult.
Perhaps what you might well have said that religious practices find their origins in a fear of the dead, not of death."
No, there have been multiple scientific studies that demonstrate that fear of death is one of the prime motivators of religious views.
Research has shown that system 1 thinkers are much more likely to hold religious views than system 2 thinkers. System 1 thinkers are by definition more emotional and intuitive thinkers than system 2 types, and it's easy to see why they need to believe in an afterlife. Whereas the rationality of system critical, objective thinkers tends to towards atheism.

Well that probably made sense in the desert 2000 years ago, because people did not understand death. Teaching people to stick corpses into the ground quickly before they risked the spread of disease and the other dangers of rotting corpses made a lot of sense. In much the same way, not eating pork in the desert 2000 years ago was also probably a smart move, and possible even male circumcision may have made some kind of sense. Now of course, we know better, and we recognise that circumcision of small children for the evil that it is.

Sorry this is just mumbo-jumbo. There is nothing between life and death. Life is simply a chemical process, when that chemical process stops - life stops. Then the collection of atoms (that has been around for 13.8 billion years) that had been temporarily arranged into your body, return to their natural state of randomness. Entropy always increases. That's the way of the universe.
PC when it comes to religion you've got some serious issues IMHO.
And a academically trained, Master's level chemist, I must correct you in saying that while the universe prefers a positive state of entropy, it doesn't always increase, hence negative delta S values. Unless of course, you think your time in a car or building is just an illusion. Simply put, putting something together negative delta S or entropy. Tearing something apart or leaving something in smaller parts, positive delta S or entropy.
In the old days, Obama promised a $2500 savings per family.
Members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the heart of the 378-year-old university, voted overwhelmingly in November to oppose changes that would require them and thousands of other Harvard employees to pay more for health care. The university says the increases are in part a result of the Obama administration’s Affordable Care Act, which many Harvard professors championed. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/06/us/health-care-fixes-backed-by-harvards-experts-now-roil-its-faculty.html?smid=tw-nytimes&_r=0
2014 was the Year of the Lie, including, but not limited to:
Bowe Bergdahl. The IRS’s missing e-mails. Lena Dunham. “Hands up, don’t shoot.” Jonathan Gruber. GM and that faulty ignition switch. Andrew Cuomo and that anti-corruption commission. The Secret Service and that White House intruder. Rachel Noerdlinger and her “disabled” son. Rolling Stone and gang rape.
In each case, the liars used their powerful positions to intimidate, harass, marginalize or just plain bilk ordinary people who lacked access to a megaphone with which to shout back.
Mostly the liars didn’t suffer any repercussions for spreading falsehoods, and most didn’t even seem particularly embarrassed when they were exposed.
Activists told us Michael Brown, who was shot by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo., on Aug. 9, was a “gentle giant” who had his hands in the air and was running away when he was shot. Video images later showed that he had robbed a convenience store shortly before the police confrontation. Then an autopsy report confirmed that Brown was so close to Officer Darren Wilson that he had gunpowder residue on his hand, and that all of the bullets that hit him came from the front, none from the back. Nor where Brown’s palms raised, according to analysis by forensic pathologist Dr. Judy Melinek.
Protesters shrugged at all of this, declaring they would continue to honor Brown’s memory by chanting, “Hands up, don’t shoot.” “Even if you don’t find that it’s true, it’s a valid rallying cry,” Ferguson protester Taylor Gruenloh told The Associated Press.
Where on earth could all of these people have gotten the idea that lying is acceptable? Maybe they’re all just marching to the cadence of the Liar in Chief.
In the Obama years, lies are no longer lies. They’re essential tools to keep at bay the McCarthyites and their nasty slurs; they’re narratives that serve a larger, political function such as ruining fraternities or the life of a guy who dared to be a Republican on a liberal campus. They perpetuate the fairy tale that the IRS acted properly, that government isn’t corrupt, that ObamaCare is working just fine.
Yisheng, I do not share your level of scientific knowledge, but as an enthusiastic amateur my understanding was that yes, there are of course positive and negative values of ∆S, but in a closed system entropy always increases over time.
Obviously if you open the door to your freezer you are going to see negative ∆S as your kitchen becomes colder, but that's viewing the freezer and kitchen as two separate but related systems. But if you view the entire universe as a closed system then entropy must always increase.
On August 18, 2011, Bryan Walsh, the self-described "senior writer for TIME magazine, covering energy and the environment - and also, occasionally, scary diseases," explained to the world, "Why Michele Bachmann's $2-a-Gallon Gas Promise Is a Fantasy." Time put his political diatribe in its Science section. ...Trimming the U.S.imports to their lowest levels since the 1960s has caused a worldwide panic in the oil industry. That has led to a price war that has already halved the price of oil. We did that not by checking our tire pressure -- President Obama's plan -- but the Sarah Palin way: Drill, baby, drill.
Time magazine owes Michele Bachmann an apology not for saying she was wrong when she was right, but rather for implying that her science was off. News organizations need to quit pretending political opinions are science.
PC, I'm not an expert in quantum physics or the orgin of the universe. But to answer your question, one would first need to define what a "universe" is, then answer the question as to whether or not the "universe" is a "closed system".
I for one, do NOT believe it's a closed system for a myriad of reasons, not the least of which is that I don't think God would "limit" himself in such a way.
Life increases the order of the universe. Life is anti-entropy.
The triumph of Life is order. The triumph of entropy is nothingness.
Life is Good, entropy is Evil.
Human consciousness is the pinnacle achievement of life, yet exists outside the laws of the physical universe and through vanity is subject to corruption. Human consciousness can therefore be directed away from serving Life.
The many animating philosophies of man may be identified as Good or Evil simply by whether they further Life or entropy.
Leftism manifests itself in anti-humanist ideologies such as radical environmentalism whose logical endpoint culminates in human extinction.
Leftism is anti-life, therefore leftism furthers entropy.

I do suspect that a certain confusion that entropy is disorder is of no little import as regards the matter of my current plight and your current struggles to understand the topic. Your confusion about disorder and entropy has persisted for some time in the field, indeed. So, do not be too hard on yourselves. Although the model of order/disorder is still present in some elementary chemistry texts as a gimmick for guessing about entropy changes (and useful to experts in some areas of thermodynamics), it is both misleading and an anachronism for beginners in chemistry. It has been deleted from most first-year university chemistry textbooks in Europe In the humanities and popular literature, the repeated use of entropy in connection with "disorder" (in the multitude of its different common meanings) has caused enormous intellectual harm. Entropy has been thereby dissociated from the quintessential connection with its atomic/molecular energetic foundation. The result is that a nineteenth century error about entropy's meaning has been generally and mistakenly applied to disorderly parties, dysfunctional personal lives, and even disruptions in international events. This may make pages of metaphor but it is totally unrelated to thermodynamic entropy in physico-chemical science that actually does impact our lives, even the lives of the undead.
Please do continue to accommodate my interest in this topic of entropy here for I believe it holds the key to the mystery at hand, that mystery of darkness which holds me in existence beyond even my own understanding. I have spent the better part of the last two centuries studying all which is theorized about physical existence only to see theory after theory overturned by the next.
While I have watched others be born, age and crumble to dust like those theories, I have remained in a state of un-living bondage. But, this physicality is certainly not a closed system as perhaps suggested in your earlier discussions. This state of existence, like yours, requires certain needs be met. Yet, unlike your state of being, the denial of those needs does not lead to physical demise. Such denial only leads to immense suffering which overpowers the will and brings forth certain manifestations of most horrid decay which do not end my state of physical being. So, you see, I am desperate to learn of all that might bring me the peace I seek, final release from this never ending night.
Well, well, well. the Ferguson case has just gotten very very interesting. A grand juror is suing that racist lying prosecutor in MO for not being transparent in the Michael Brown case.
I have a feeling McCulloch is shitting bricks....so is Darren Wilson and all his racist white followers.
I'm taking bets that the same thing will happen in NYC.
What is real? Let me attest to you that the Darkness is the only reality which is lasting. For it is mystery. It brings us forth and finally calls us back into its cold and empty communion of nothingness, into the mystery of itself. Either you are alone in the universe or you do not exist. Which is more frightening?
What is truth? Blacks are the color of darkness. Blacks, like darkness, are a mystery.They bring forth cold violence and their eyes are the windows to nothingness. Finding yourself alone in the dark or in a black neighborhood, you may wish you never existed.
Which is more frightening? Some will say they are one in the same..

5:57 PM -------------- Thank you for putting to words that feeling about being Black. I have felt it for 60+ years in America. Especially during the Jim Crow days up to today.
You are absolutely right. To be Black in America is depressing and "if" the Whites don't kill you off, other Blacks will. There is no peace in America for Blacks. Whites will see to it with their discriminating power, and penal system for Blacks.
Thank you for the words of truth. May God bless you for the way you see things.
So my blog seems to have been hacked or somwthing. I cannot get in to write and get some sort of security breach notice. I know there was a strange follower appear last week whom I did not know and found a bit suspicious but honestly I just don't know. I will start another blog soon.
I did just tweet a pic of my daughters house and the lit up gift boxes on the front lawn that are waiting for the Three Kings tonight.
Tomorrow is the last day of Christmas festivities here, when the children open the gifts that the Kings brought them.
Tonight there are all sorts of caravans with live music to honor the Kings advent and parties everywhere. I have videos that I took yesterday and today but cant' post them cos of the darn blog!
I have money at the little nook where I have the Three King statues, and an lit electric candle.
Here we do not put away our decorations until after tomorrow.
HAPPY THREE KINGS DAY EVERYONE! May they grant your every desire!

Not so retarded when the gop keeps running candidates like Rick Santorum, Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal all of whom are serious theocrats running for President. Also look at the number of Republican controlled school districts who want to put creationism in science books. It is what it is.
I hope you're right!
ReplyDeleteAn8:18on,
ReplyDeleteYou ask a splendid question. Cremation is not in each case necessary for not all recieve the gift of darkness. Therefore, care must be taken to determine then if wise to exhume the bodies of those suspected undead who are observed to return as Vampires and to cremate them, or at any rate entirely to bind them in some other manner. And thus, at length, you would be freed from the importunity of these phantoms such as I who nowadays are far less frequently to be seen in this country than in former times due to the popularity of cremation. Yet, such a blessing was not mine lending me great understanding of the Roman slogan "Away with the cemeteries!" For that empire paid a dear price for its failure to tend properly to the apparent departed and for its embrace of the Christian Blood Cult.

ReplyDelete"Dearest Purple Cow,
Perhaps what you might well have said that religious practices find their origins in a fear of the dead, not of death."
No, there have been multiple scientific studies that demonstrate that fear of death is one of the prime motivators of religious views.
Research has shown that system 1 thinkers are much more likely to hold religious views than system 2 thinkers. System 1 thinkers are by definition more emotional and intuitive thinkers than system 2 types, and it's easy to see why they need to believe in an afterlife. Whereas the rationality of system critical, objective thinkers tends to towards atheism.

"All ancient cultures pass down a deep concern over the dangers associated with the dead, themselves, who will not remain dead. In Islam, burial must take place before sundown the following day and the dead must be bound. In Judaism, the dead must be buried quickly and likewise bound. In Christianity, the dead is imprisoned in a casket. In both Christianity and Judaism a Wake is often celebrated in which the corpse is closely observed, even through the night, before being locked finally in the casket to be buried. Why such efforts to imprison dead bodies if so harmless? Why such concern if there is not real danger?"
Well that probably made sense in the desert 2000 years ago, because people did not understand death. Teaching people to stick corpses into the ground quickly before they risked the spread of disease and the other dangers of rotting corpses made a lot of sense. In much the same way, not eating pork in the desert 2000 years ago was also probably a smart move, and possible even male circumcision may have made some kind of sense. Now of course, we know better, and we recognise that circumcision of small children for the evil that it is.

"I can only tell you this. I have walked this earth longer that you would ever believe and I know that these fears are well founded. There is a place of between for some who experience a physical but not spiritual death. In that place, the laws of life and death are suspended. The laws governing the demise of the physical body do not apply and so hunger persists. So, you see, there is an existence between life and death. I know because I now languish here in all of time unable to rest. For that gift is not mine to possess."
Sorry this is just mumbo-jumbo. There is nothing between life and death. Life is simply a chemical process, when that chemical process stops - life stops. Then the collection of atoms (that has been around for 13.8 billion years) that had been temporarily arranged into your body, return to their natural state of randomness. Entropy always increases. That's the way of the universe.
PC when it comes to religion you've got some serious issues IMHO.
ReplyDeleteAnd a academically trained, Master's level chemist, I must correct you in saying that while the universe prefers a positive state of entropy, it doesn't always increase, hence negative delta S values. Unless of course, you think your time in a car or building is just an illusion. Simply put, putting something together negative delta S or entropy. Tearing something apart or leaving something in smaller parts, positive delta S or entropy.
"Unless of course, you think your time in a car or building is just an illusion."

ReplyDeleteIn the old days, Obama promised a $2500 savings per family.
Members of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the heart of the 378-year-old university, voted overwhelmingly in November to oppose changes that would require them and thousands of other Harvard employees to pay more for health care. The university says the increases are in part a result of the Obama administration’s Affordable Care Act, which many Harvard professors championed.
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/06/us/health-care-fixes-backed-by-harvards-experts-now-roil-its-faculty.html?smid=tw-nytimes&_r=0
Paying more for the same.
Dumbocrat logic to lower costs.
2014 was the Year of the Lie, including, but not limited to:
ReplyDeleteBowe Bergdahl. The IRS’s missing e-mails. Lena Dunham. “Hands up, don’t shoot.” Jonathan Gruber. GM and that faulty ignition switch. Andrew Cuomo and that anti-corruption commission. The Secret Service and that White House intruder. Rachel Noerdlinger and her “disabled” son. Rolling Stone and gang rape.
In each case, the liars used their powerful positions to intimidate, harass, marginalize or just plain bilk ordinary people who lacked access to a megaphone with which to shout back.
Mostly the liars didn’t suffer any repercussions for spreading falsehoods, and most didn’t even seem particularly embarrassed when they were exposed.
Activists told us Michael Brown, who was shot by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo., on Aug. 9, was a “gentle giant” who had his hands in the air and was running away when he was shot.
Video images later showed that he had robbed a convenience store shortly before the police confrontation. Then an autopsy report confirmed that Brown was so close to Officer Darren Wilson that he had gunpowder residue on his hand, and that all of the bullets that hit him came from the front, none from the back. Nor where Brown’s palms raised, according to analysis by forensic pathologist Dr. Judy Melinek.
Protesters shrugged at all of this, declaring they would continue to honor Brown’s memory by chanting, “Hands up, don’t shoot.” “Even if you don’t find that it’s true, it’s a valid rallying cry,” Ferguson protester Taylor Gruenloh told The Associated Press.
Where on earth could all of these people have gotten the idea that lying is acceptable? Maybe they’re all just marching to the cadence of the Liar in Chief.
In the Obama years, lies are no longer lies. They’re essential tools to keep at bay the McCarthyites and their nasty slurs; they’re narratives that serve a larger, political function such as ruining fraternities or the life of a guy who dared to be a Republican on a liberal campus. They perpetuate the fairy tale that the IRS acted properly, that government isn’t corrupt, that ObamaCare is working just fine.
Yisheng, I do not share your level of scientific knowledge, but as an enthusiastic amateur my understanding was that yes, there are of course positive and negative values of ∆S, but in a closed system entropy always increases over time.
ReplyDeleteObviously if you open the door to your freezer you are going to see negative ∆S as your kitchen becomes colder, but that's viewing the freezer and kitchen as two separate but related systems. But if you view the entire universe as a closed system then entropy must always increase.
Is that incorrect?

On August 18, 2011, Bryan Walsh, the self-described "senior writer for TIME magazine, covering energy and the environment - and also, occasionally, scary diseases," explained to the world, "Why Michele Bachmann's $2-a-Gallon Gas Promise Is a Fantasy." Time put his political diatribe in its Science section.
ReplyDelete...Trimming the U.S.imports to their lowest levels since the 1960s has caused a worldwide panic in the oil industry. That has led to a price war that has already halved the price of oil. We did that not by checking our tire pressure -- President Obama's plan -- but the Sarah Palin way: Drill, baby, drill.
Time magazine owes Michele Bachmann an apology not for saying she was wrong when she was right, but rather for implying that her science was off. News organizations need to quit pretending political opinions are science.

PC, I'm not an expert in quantum physics or the orgin of the universe. But to answer your question, one would first need to define what a "universe" is, then answer the question as to whether or not the "universe" is a "closed system".
ReplyDeleteI for one, do NOT believe it's a closed system for a myriad of reasons, not the least of which is that I don't think God would "limit" himself in such a way.
Life increases the order of the universe. Life is anti-entropy.
ReplyDeleteThe triumph of Life is order. The triumph of entropy is nothingness.
Life is Good, entropy is Evil.
Human consciousness is the pinnacle achievement of life, yet exists outside the laws of the physical universe and through vanity is subject to corruption. Human consciousness can therefore be directed away from serving Life.
The many animating philosophies of man may be identified as Good or Evil simply by whether they further Life or entropy.
Leftism manifests itself in anti-humanist ideologies such as radical environmentalism whose logical endpoint culminates in human extinction.
Leftism is anti-life, therefore leftism furthers entropy.
Leftism is Evil.
Leftists are agents of entropy.
Know this is where you walk.
So are you 'many worlds' or 'Copenhagen'?

Dear Yisheng and Purple Cow,
ReplyDeleteI do suspect that a certain confusion that entropy is disorder is of no little import as regards the matter of my current plight and your current struggles to understand the topic. Your confusion about disorder and entropy has persisted for some time in the field, indeed. So, do not be too hard on yourselves. Although the model of order/disorder is still present in some elementary chemistry texts as a gimmick for guessing about entropy changes (and useful to experts in some areas of thermodynamics), it is both misleading and an anachronism for beginners in chemistry. It has been deleted from most first-year university chemistry textbooks in Europe In the humanities and popular literature, the repeated use of entropy in connection with "disorder" (in the multitude of its different common meanings) has caused enormous intellectual harm. Entropy has been thereby dissociated from the quintessential connection with its atomic/molecular energetic foundation. The result is that a nineteenth century error about entropy's meaning has been generally and mistakenly applied to disorderly parties, dysfunctional personal lives, and even disruptions in international events. This may make pages of metaphor but it is totally unrelated to thermodynamic entropy in physico-chemical science that actually does impact our lives, even the lives of the undead.
Sincerely,
S. Germaine
The Purple Cow says everybody and everything is an agent of entropy.
ReplyDeleteThe Purple Cow says everybody and everything is Evil.

Dear Yisheng,
ReplyDeletePlease do continue to accommodate my interest in this topic of entropy here for I believe it holds the key to the mystery at hand, that mystery of darkness which holds me in existence beyond even my own understanding. I have spent the better part of the last two centuries studying all which is theorized about physical existence only to see theory after theory overturned by the next.
While I have watched others be born, age and crumble to dust like those theories, I have remained in a state of un-living bondage. But, this physicality is certainly not a closed system as perhaps suggested in your earlier discussions. This state of existence, like yours, requires certain needs be met. Yet, unlike your state of being, the denial of those needs does not lead to physical demise. Such denial only leads to immense suffering which overpowers the will and brings forth certain manifestations of most horrid decay which do not end my state of physical being. So, you see, I am desperate to learn of all that might bring me the peace I seek, final release from this never ending night.

ReplyDeleteWhat is real? Let me attest to you that the Darkness is the only reality which is lasting. For it is mystery. It brings us forth and finally calls us back into its cold and empty communion of nothingness, into the mystery of itself. Either you are alone in the universe or you do not exist. Which is more frightening?
ReplyDeleteWhat is truth? Blacks are the color of darkness. Blacks, like darkness, are a mystery.They bring forth cold violence and their eyes are the windows to nothingness. Finding yourself alone in the dark or in a black neighborhood, you may wish you never existed.

Thank you for putting to words that feeling about being Black. I have felt it for 60+ years in America. Especially during the Jim Crow days up to today.
You are absolutely right. To be Black in America is depressing and "if" the Whites don't kill you off, other Blacks will. There is no peace in America for Blacks. Whites will see to it with their discriminating power, and penal system for Blacks.
Thank you for the words of truth. May God bless you for the way you see things.
So my blog seems to have been hacked or somwthing. I cannot get in to write and get some sort of security breach notice. I know there was a strange follower appear last week whom I did not know and found a bit suspicious but honestly I just don't know. I will start another blog soon.
ReplyDeleteI did just tweet a pic of my daughters house and the lit up gift boxes on the front lawn that are waiting for the Three Kings tonight.
Tomorrow is the last day of Christmas festivities here, when the children open the gifts that the Kings brought them.
Tonight there are all sorts of caravans with live music to honor the Kings advent and parties everywhere. I have videos that I took yesterday and today but cant' post them cos of the darn blog!
I have money at the little nook where I have the Three King statues, and an lit electric candle.
Here we do not put away our decorations until after tomorrow.
HAPPY THREE KINGS DAY EVERYONE! May they grant your every desire!

Thanks Yisheng! It's okay, I went to the site and it was about the virus that infected thousands of WordPress blogs and such with actually very helpful info!
But I can't do more than that as I still need surgery for my eyes and also I don't really know how to do all that techy stuff so my son has to do it.
I believe that sometimes you have to trust :D
Either way I don't think I will bother as it was always a little quirky to navigate. And WordPress should be the one to fix them anyway. So I will prolly go back to blogspot :)
