Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

After the flash "Get Out!"
President Trump assuring invited HBCU leaders that Omarosa was “just kidding” when she insisted they had to bow down and kiss the ring.
Thirsty- don't know how to act!
A look into the future after she gets handed her ass!
On another note @Pilot, having difficulty coming across United Airlines Group at Bud Billiken Parade 2018. Nevertheless, seems to be an amazing celebration for City of Chicago. Apparently, the largest attendance of children and youth participating this year :-)
Yeah, I gotta find who has some pics. WLS ABC carried it on tv so maybe their website.
I also tried searching ABC and CBS local stations, not having any lucky. Perhaps pictures underway in Chicago Tribune.
Hmmmm, we were pretty far back but quite a few media outlets snapped our pic.
Donald: “My black, here, Omarosa, says I’m ‘racial, but not racist.’
I like the sound of that. Maybe I’ll have it printed on some baseball caps.”
"I know he's president and all, but this is humiliating."
-Doug in Oakland
Of course you can’t find pics on the net when Chi-town is doing something positive for kids.ππ
F&F for the win so far, hey F&F!ππ½ππ½
Thank you, Yisheng! And such a delight receiving a shout out from you :-)
In all fairness about recent Chicago event, there are pictures aplenty of the marching bands, floats and the lots of happy faces of children enjoying the parade.
Only picture hard to find is our affable resident Pilot who mentioned in previous post that he was amongst United Airlines group attending the festivities.
At the end of the day, Yisheng, you are correct that we are in need of showcasing the more positive contributions of our young people.
LIAR...Nuff said
Examples of black liberal robotic house Negroes behavior:
1. congresswoman Maxine Waters
3. All black Liberals are to support illegal immigrant children( by any means necessary )but you MUST ignore the plight of poor black children - particularly in Chicago

So how is blog therapy working out for your disorder...making in progess?

It is slim pickins F&F. Maybe when the Defender and Crusaser come out this week there should be more pics. I know we'll be all over our company website.
Examples of robotic wingnut behavior:
1. Congressman Louis Gohmert
2. All brainwashed conservatives must ignore global warming and pretend trump isn't a flaming racist.
And brainwashed wingnuts must pretend over 100 deaths a day from opioids don't happen and bleet about Chicago Chicago Chicago over and over.
Omarosa has shown contrition for her support of trump and her time in the WH and that's good enough for me.
Lying ass white men NEVER do the same and are forgiven so ALL y'all can kiss my ass AND hers, for maintaining a sycophantant double standard!
“Omarosa has shown contrition for her support of trump and her time in the WH and that's good enough for me.”
This new tell-all book of hers just looks like a new grift to me. Everything Omarosa does seems to be oriented toward lining her pockets or pumping up her ego. I’m not seeing a lot of believable contrition, to be honest.
I won’t be forgiving too many members of the Trump administration, whatever their races. Unless they decide to become priests/nuns, and donate all their material wealth to charity and devote themselves to helping the poor and disabled, they won’t be redeemed again in my eyes. This administration is vile, and everyone associated with it should forever live in shame.
But also, for what it’s worth, I do think a double standard is actually warranted in this case. Trump will hurt a lot of Americans of all races, but the ill effects of his policies will fall heavier on people of color than on, say, poor white people. From my perspective, that makes being a Trump collaborator even more shameful for a person of color than for a white person.
I am confident that Omarosa knew better than to have joined this freakshow administration. She just didn’t care.
Speaking of black, liberal, members of congress, Barbara Lee is running for conference chair, the position vacated by Joe Crowley when he lost his primary to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

"This new tell-all book of hers just looks like a new grift to me"
Black women like Omarosa and Yisheng are the definition of grifters.
Grifters gotta stick together, right Yisheng?
"Barbara Lee is running for conference chair, the position vacated by Joe Crowley when he lost his primary"
I like Barbara Lee, smart lady.
Hey Doc, been a while.

You ain't too fucking bright, R U? Your new investigation was started January 4th, 2018 and failed just like all the rest of the witch hunts against HRC because stoopid fucking wasicu wasteys can't investigate and can't govern.
If I was as dubb as you stoopid fucking wingnuts, I'd be one of you.
Black woman in Tampa carries her 4-yr-old girl out into a river, tosses her in the water, wades back to shore without her:

Such a wonderful exhibition of motherly love, removing this little girl from any threat of racism from Evil Hateful White People ever again. She's Saved now.
Don't take less than 60 acres...and tell him to keep the mule!
Nice to see Child Protection was aware of parenting problems and didn't intervene. I know, I know taxcuts for the koch bros has drained the treasury and there is no money for Social Services because they are socialist programs designed to protect HRC's emails and make fun of Drumpfuck and stoopid fucking wingnuts.

What #UnitetheRight2? Looks like Nazis were shutdown b4 the shutdown! Only handful of Nazis & at least 10 cops per Nazi protecting them (because of course) Congrats to #AllOutDC #ShutitDownDC
So Pompeo goes to North Korea and demands a 60-70% reduction of nukular weapons in 8 months and Li'l Kim tells Pompeo to teach his Grammaw to suck eggs. Pompeo is as bad a negotiator as Drumpfuck is.

What part doesn't the TV contestant understand you or toast… doesn't realized she can't beat the man at his own game; he made the rules can change the rules better yet got endless lawyers…she'll go broke trying to defend herself��
Clearly doesn't understand politics …way out of her league

Does the stoopid right wing shit ever end? No he wasn't keynote speaker at 2012 Dem convention. No he doesn't have a line on HRC's emails. No he isn't the Easter Bunny.
Of course I speak jive, I'm a stable genius! MAGA!
weird how the surest and quickest way to ruin your own life in this racist, patriarchal society is to talk shit about women and minorities
Director Comey: fired
Dep Dir McCabe: fired
Chief Counsel Baker: demoted, left
Chief of Staff Rybicki: left
FBI Counsel Page: demoted, then left
Dep Dir of Counterintel Strzok: demoted, FIRED
Never seen a federal agency where that’s happened
Social media companies are censoring the alternative anti-war/neocon left too. This isn’t about Alex Jones being guilty of “hate speech” but about information warfare being waged against all voices that question the dominant narrative.
Trump works for the Russians is just "Obama is a Muslim" for winemoms
"When Hell sends its demons, they're not sending their best. They're sending demons that have a lot of problems, and they're bringing those problems with them. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good demons."
