You know, "pos" is not the only Nazi who is supporting Ron Paul. Ron Paul may say he admires Dr. King (even though he opposed the Civil Rights Act King fought for) and Gandhi. But he's really got some explaining to do--or WOULD if he had any real chance of winning. But questions about Dr. Paul's possibe racism aside (if one can put aside such an important issue), my critique of Dr. Paul would resemble Dr. King's critique of Barry Goldwater: that he promotes a conservative ideology out of touch with the realities of our time. But unlike King's critique of Goldwater, which at least inferred that Goldwater was not a recist though even though promoting a philosophy "that gave aid and comfort to the racist," I am inclined to say that Ron Paul not only articulates a philosphy that give aid and comfort to the racist, but may very well be playing on the racist team himself. As Katha Pollitt notes in the January 23, 2012 edition of the NATION, Ron Paul isn't popular with the Stormfront folks for nothing.

Ummm, the Occupy Movement is 100% anti-Israel like 100% of folks on the left. Have you not been paying attention? The new school of progressive thought is the "test of consequences", aka, BLAME THE VICTIM.
Please take the time to read this: http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/12/islami...
The Occupy Movement isn't 100% anti-Israel, nor is it pro-Israel. Nor can it be. Anyone who has been involved or perhaps just talked to people in the Occupy Movement has to be aware of the DIVERSE philosophical and ideological perspectives within the Movement. Students, trade unionists, small business folk, varied assortments of liberals, civil rights groups, teachers, doctors, women's groups, the unemployed (and even some homeless) cannot, and do not have one single position of Israel.
And what of the Jews in the Occupy Movement? I can surmise what progressive Jews I know think about this.(And all Jews don't think alike)
Jewish members associated with TIKKUN in Baltimore & DC are--and I've read TIKKUN and participated in enough of their forums to know--leftist Jews who consider themselves to be BOTH pro-Israel and pro-Palestine. Naturally, they're against terrorism against either Israeli or Palestinian civilians. Their non-Jewish friends (including some Araba and Muslims) agree with that position.
And they mainly advoacte nonviolence.
Now if you want to argue that there are people in the Occupy Movement how are anti-Israel that wouldn't surprise me. It wouldn't surprise if there are people who are anti-Muslim. But the Occupy Movement isn't defined by this. And I don't see anti-Israel placards, but I see many anti-corporate ones.
RacismPolice should stick to talking about things he knows...of course, then he couldnn't talk about anything.

Or maybe you can at least identify what Communist organization he belonged to, and PROVE that it was Communist.
Now anyone who has read STRIDE TOWARD FREEDOM, STRENGTH TO LOVE or WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE: CHAOS OR COMMUNITY? knows that Dr. King was OPPOSED to Communism on religious grounds (he sees Communism as atheistic) and on philosophical grounds,
Moreover, Dr. King studied under PERSONALIST philosophers and theologians while at Crozer Seminary and Boston University. You probably don't know anything about PERSONALISM, but it was Dr. King's "basic philosophical position." A perspective also held by Vlac Havel.
But it belongs to the tradition of philosophical IDEALISM, whereas as Marxism is a form of philosophical MATERIALISM or naturalism. And King himself pointed out the incompatibility of the two philosophies at the deepest level.
Dr. King was inclined toward Democratic Socialism which he (and others) sometimes called Christian socialism.
Of course, the political immaturity of th US is such that many people--not just racist morons like you--simply don't know the difference.
But you can ASK rather that pontificating with ignorant, ill-informed "opinions">

If only black people had the active political machinery in place whereby when a racist sewer rat, like this judge, or anyone else, says something racist & disrespectful on this level.......thousands of us put pressure on their advertisers, employers, on anyone or any organization that has any influence to flush their jobs or careers down the fuking toilet!!!
It is AMAZING that in 2012 black folks have to deal with 1912 level gutter racism......AND THIS IS CONCERNING A POTUS!!!
IF THIS IS THE LEVEL OF RESPECT GIVEN A BLACK POTUS........WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT HIS THOUGHTS OF THE REST OF US? AND HOW COULD THIS WHITE SEWER RAT BE AN IMPARTIAL "JUDGE" RELATIVE TO THE AFFAIRS OF ALL PEOPLE BEFORE HIS COURT???
All I can say is.......racism and hatred, expressed verbally, does not get any worse than to say terrible trashy things about someone's DEAD mother. That is f____ low in any decent persons book

@ Carl C - His comments are just idiotic so there's no need to even respond to them.
@ beantown2010 @ Attentiveness - There's nothing wrong with it when it's done correctly like in Tropic Thunder but you evidently don't know or don't understand the disrespectful history of black face or you wouldn't even be muttering such nonsense. The problem with our race is that "it doesn't matter attitude" and no one standing up for anything. No wonder we're so easy to walk over.
The Jews don't allow this kind of shit to happen. You step outta place and they will check you… as it should be.
I bet if the reverse was true.. if a black group made their eyes look asian and wore buck teeth and performed in Korea stating "this is how Koreans act".. they'd be up in arms. They wouldn't let that shit slide.
You complacent negros are just happy trying "to get ahead in the world" that nothing matters to you.

The kind of divisive,hurtful,hateful,racist language he's spoken over the years, shouldn't be taken seriously by anyone with intelligence,fairness and decency.this person has gotten rich off of spreading misery into the world..You are judged by your character,what you stand for,and what comes out of your mouth.People have the right to say and do whatever they choose. Doesn't mean their aren't repercussions for those actions. He was out of line period.But then again, Most people are.Say things without giving thought to how it may hurt or offend someone else.limbaugh is a disgrace to himself as a so called man and as a human being. He makes a living off of lies.Don't think so, go back and read over the years what he's said and promoted.The energy he puts out is a wicked one and that energy will be visited back upon him in some way,shape or form.Watch the kind of energy you put out into the universe. It matters.
Thats what breitbart didn't understand.You are not in control over your life.Only in control of what you want to do with your life. Because you are not in control, that should humble anyone with common decency and love in their heart.Instead,limbaugh and people like him are arrogant and hateful with a lack of understanding that they will have to answer for how they have treated others.
His name is RUSH.Very fitting and not by accident.That is exactly how he's acted towards others with his so called career.

Just a few questions to my sisters.
1. Who sells you your FAKE HAIR
2. Who does your fingernails and toenails
--------------------------------------------------------------------
To My brothers
1.Who sells you your cheap suits?
2.Who sells you the OFF BRAND JEANS?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I cant speak for the rest of the country, but in Richmond,Va, Koreans/Asains have cornered the market on black hair, black nails, clothing, and a few other things. Im not knocking their hustle, but im still confused as to how this happened.
This little video is clearly offensive, but my question is, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT IT? Its easy to get on here and type about how wrong it is, but im CERTAIN that the HAIR STORE will be packed tomorrow as my sisters go in to give these ASIANS all of their money so they can get their hair DONE. Getting mad is just an EMOTIONAL reaction. Lets put something real behind it. Lets not support these people that do not respect us.
We have NOTHING, WE HAVE no REAL black economic power. This is why we continue to be the BUTT of every joke. We have to do FOR OURSELVES, BY OURSELVES. Its not about what others think of us. Its about what WE think of US. We dont respect US, but then we got the nerve to expect others to RESPECT US. How can we get mad at this video, and still give our money to these same people? We have alot of work to do BLACK MAN and BLACK WOMAN.

I think you guys are missing the point, regardless of Too Short's choices and album content he makes a good point about labels not signing "Positive Artists". You don't even see positive rappers anymore and the so called old school "positive rappers" are Co signing the rest of these clowns. These days if you say anything bad about a rapper they automatically call you a "HATER". Kats rappin about Money Money Money and all their content lacks substance. The Industry is wack and everyone just eats it up because of this blind admiration we are encouraged to have for.......garbage

Another low self-esteem having n____ with money further aiding in the annihlation of his people. Luxie, please take a walk in 5 o'clock traffic. FACT - Black women have been with their male counterparts through GOOD & BAD, rich or POOR (more so the latter) since the beginning of time. FACT - White women with decent jobs who date black men with NO JOBS do so as a control factor. Case in point - A few wks ago, I was at a gas station, every pump was occupied. Finally, was able to get a chance to pull up to a pump, but I saw a woman driving a car so I kind of pulled into the middle space between two pump stations so that she could pull up in front of me. She goes behind me. So, as I proceed to get out of my car, a young, black guy with dreads who looked like a thug might I add, walked up to my window & asked me to move my car forward so that he could get gas. Don't you know that it was that same white wench who had send this BLACK MALE to approach me, a BLACK FEMALE..sent him to do her dirty bidding. Why couldn't she ask me to pull forward? This n.egro didn't buy one drop of gas, SHE did! She had the money so he does what SHE tells him to do. Sure, bummy brotha's get play from white girls all the time, but only long enough for that white woman to have a BLACK experience then they're yesterday's spoiled milk. FACT - Black men with money are a lot more appealing to other race women as long-term relationship candidates. Black women like for our men to do well, but we stick by them even when they're not. BTW Luxie - Black women, even way before Sarah Bartman's time, have been known for our voluptuous, curvy derriere's...this is why plastic surgeons invented procedures such as the Brazilian butt lift & silicone buttock augmentation. It is a sport for these Non-Black women to snag a rich black baller, singer, rapper or actor nowadays and the sad thing about it is that BLACK people are the main one's supporting such debauchery.

Is this the same girl that was refusing to have sex with him, but had him paying her bills and rent? I think it was almost a year ago, she was put on blast for using him by her friend. And she gave a spiel about how she doesn't believe in sex before marriage, or something like that. Am I getting the story mixed up? Does anyone remember hearing about this?

Uh, a lot of whites know about black stories (ourstories), and I'm not referring to the watered down lies that's in HIStory books in colleges and high schools... One of best friends' father died when he was young, and his white mother made sure he was knowledgeable by handing him books, introducing him to black people who taught him about the Moors, ancient Kemetic sciences, etc., so it's very possible for a white person to make sure their half-black child is aware of his/her heritage.
Sad to say this, but a lot of whites know just as much, if not more, about the slave trade, than a lot of blacks, and can have a face-to-face lengthy conversation about European colonialism and slavery, slavery in West Africa. Just last month, I was on the plane sitting next to a white man reading Frances Welsing's The Isis Papers and taking notes while reading. We had some small talk about the book and the slave trade and he disclosed he'd been reading and researching for his PhD.
You may not think it happens, but a lot of white people adopting black children, and having biracial kids are teaching their children about their heritage. I'm tutoring a biracial black girl and black boy (teen siblings) right now, due to the request of their parent.

Note by Me: Not all Asian people are like this (since I know many Asians in real life that are tolerant and respectful), but we as blacks should run our own house.

Back around 1980, the Koreans took all the Black beauty supply products off the shelves, held the stock and effectively drove Blacks out of the business. During this time period, the NAACP/Ebony/Essence/Black Enterprise said not one word about it and since we're a materialistic set of people many of us don't give a d____ and refuse to see sense.

When Black owners try to open their own stores, unless they're prepared to deal with the Korean mob in the distribution aspect of the business, it's impossible to keep your stores open or stock them. They've systematically gone after every product we make as well. Now they're killing themselves over the natural hair market which I predicted. We dont' need them for our products.

Check out the documentary "Black Hair, The Korean Takeover of the Black Haircare Industry" an Aron Ranen Documentary and see for yourself. There's one part where some Black owners are stupid enough to hold a meeting at of all places, Denny's. Was there no church basement to meet in? D____!
As for the nails, I have talked my brown self blue in the face about going to these places. They're cheap because they're using illegal chemicals with formaldehyde. Our people just walk in there like these people are the Borg - Resistance is futile, you must assimilate and help the Koreans kick you in the a____  economically and never fight back from their attacks. Let's make this clear, when they came after successful Black beauty supply businesses, it was an act of war. This is how they see business and we dummies (except for the outraged ones who get it- I ain't talkin' to you , just preacin' to da choir for sure) just walk up in these places and go right on give them all of our economic power. To fight it back, it will have to be war like but not bombing and screaming at them. Instead, a quiet dignified war where we just stop going to their stores. If we don't go there en masse, they don't get the profit and will have to fold. If we have a class action suit against the Japanese company that owns the synthetic fibers used for braiding, dreads (whites use this too), doll hair, etc. to know for sure what effects is not only having on us internally, but also in the process of manufacturing and disposal, what is this doing to the earth?
Now my daughter at 14 is realizing why I never relaxed her hair etc. but I did braid it. I have burning question about this hair being used. We need to sue their a____ off, get billions from it and infuse one of our HBCU's science department's research lab with it to invent a better braiding material besides this.
Companies withholding ingredients that go into your body is a trend that is stink but quite real. A certain popular blue dyed sports drink that starts with a G has a blue dye that is made out of gasoline/petroleum goes into your system and thanks to the profits given to them by blind consumers who never question no one knows EXACTLY what that stuff is or what it does over time to the body. This is how corporations take those profits and bop us upside the head in the political process because they were able to purchase the right senators/congressmen for sale and get their way. This is why I occupied Zucotti park. First thing I learned in business school was a corporation is a person. Hell no.
The Koreans own the stores and control the distribution process. To fight this back we need to not just lease stores but own the commercial property, have the buying power to buy directly from the manufacturer, advertise the way only we know how to, and well up the anger among us so that we see red when we see them. When we have a place for us to go to, provided we watch the stores 24/7/365 to deal with sabotage (fire/attacks/legal issues) , etc. we can take over the entire market in less than a year with a fully fleshed out well executed plan. You just have to deal with people who think in a certain manner and can do it. Not everyone can.
Now I go to plan some more. We need those businesses in our hands and before I ever close my eyes for good, this is one off the things I want to do. Once we do it with the hair businesses, the model is set. We then go after the corner stores, chicken places, etc. No need for us to have 42% unemployment among our youth and similar to adults but we're keeping reps from all parts of Asia employed and they CAN'T STAND US.

YOU ARE SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE. Everything you said is geared toward black independence. I love what you put in your post about having some of our HBCUs science departments start to develop hair care products for our people again.
My sister, MOST of the fast food and other items liked GATORADE are full of things that can be harmful to us. the list is ENDLESS. I hardly ever go out to eat these days. Im BIG on LABEL READING. We wonder why many of our people are having heart attacks at the age of 14. We wonder why we are overweight. Most of it comes from our diet.
Beloved, part of me cant even get mad at Asians, whites, and all of the others that laugh at us and continue to take our money. The information is out there. There are FREE libraries ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY. So our people dont know because they dont want to know. So it seems as if this cycle will continue for now.

This review is from: Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act (Paperback)
I must first say that I have also read "Death of A Dark Nation", and this current book is a beautiful follow up. The best thing I have ever learned is you can not fight what you don't know is THERE. The author(s) have made it a point to be forthright, blatant, expressive and truthful when explaining and exposing the system of racism for what it is, and how it negatively permeates nations of color in every day life.

I also appreciate and respect the author(s) for bringing a solution to the crisis as well as pointing out the crux. Unlike another review posted here, I do not feel that the book makes the black man out to be 'weak' because at one point in time he was defenseless in bringing security and protection to his woman/child. Pointing out how the black man couldn't react to the horrors committed against his people, gives us insight into how the divide began and is continually spiraling downward. There was also no need to point out what went on between the times of slavery and integration, as the point of bringing up those two times in history, was to showcase the ill effects each of them played in the black person's demise. As a black woman myself, I don't think for once that this book intended to or even made the black man look weak, nor did it make the black woman a victim/heroine. When it comes to white supremacy and the system of racism and blacks,our men and woman are NOT treated any different nor are we seen as different in white eyes. I really get sick of some blacks, male and female, making it seem like one of us is treated more fair, or more unjust than the other. We have to realize that although our gender struggles as black men and women might be different, they are STILL shared struggles, we are still on the same side of the fence and WE shouldn't be trying to make enemies of each other, yet instead focus on just WHO the real enemy is.

The review written by Mr.Herbert Calhoun is poisonous, degrading, ignorant, uneducated, immature, divisive and narrow minded. Throwing out 100 dollar words like he does, does not mean there is WORTH in what he says...For the record Mr. Calhoun, I know for a FACT that this book is not 'lesbian' rhetoric, because I am aware of one of the authors and I must say HE is perhaps one of the most positive, insightful, progressive, uplifting BLACK MEN I have ever come across. Re-read the book again, and this time try not to tear down your own people in the process.

BlkRuggerDC (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews


This review is from: Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act (Paperback)
After reading Trojan Horse: Death of a Dark Nation, I could only imagine what the follow up book would be like. Black Love Is A Revolutionary Act did not disappoint. This co-authored masterpiece once again provides solid, consistent, constructive and accurate information of how the gender war between black women and black men continues to plague the black family structure. Only a lost soul would deny the facts and logic presented in this book. Not only is this book informative but offers solutions to reverse the damage done to the black family by decades of racial social programming. This book has profoundly influence how I see interracial relationships and how damaging they are to the collective black family. Black Love is the ONLY Love for Black People!

Late as H___, but two reasons I went natural...

1) Chris Rock's 'Good Hair' was an eye-opener for me. All these Asians that are dominating the Black hair care game, and yet they don't know shi!t about the product, other than how much they sell of it.

2) The constant stalking, "hurry up and buy" mentality. I refuse to do business with anyone - regardless of race - that acts like they are going to punk me into buying something.

Im willing to use my decent credit to go in with someone if they wanted to open up a Black beauty supply..the problem isnt that though.Its who can you trust with your credit and name.A buisness partner is the equivalent of a spouse so to speak..whats yours is there's and vice versa..
Jews believe in this and work to keep something they own under their name for their childrens sake.Maybe Blacks could start taking chances like this if we had more of the money or better friendships with people that were willing to put it all on the line..A poor Black might not even have a home for collateral, or decent credit (either of them)..Not to mention in some states felonies make it to where you cant be a buisness owner, making you have to put your buisness under someone elses name(which doesnt always work well as far as the trust issue concerning Blacks).
Thats why i always revert back to what i know to be the true problem..Its Blacks with all their P's and Q's that dont have these problems that should be opening up buisnesses..Think about it, If you're an educated Black with a good job, no felonies,married, and have a stable home and work life ,there shouldnt be any reason why they wouldnt be able to open up a buisness whenever..
Not only that but the Black politicians should be spewing this in the minds of young Blacks coming up as well.Giving out buisness loans and offering seminars in these areas are something alot of inner city Blacks have to leave far out of these communities to find out about ..
Its possible , but realistically most wont take the time when they have so many other problems in their lives going on.

---------------------------------------------------
I think this is 1/4 of the problem. Most of us may want to start and or own a business, but we simply dont have the START UP CAPITAL or other means to actually make it happen.
"Thats why i always revert back to what i know to be the true problem..Its Blacks with all their P's and Q's that dont have these problems that should be opening up buisnesses..Think about it, If you're an educated Black with a good job, no felonies,married, and have a stable home and work life ,there shouldnt be any reason why they wouldnt be able to open up a buisness whenever.."
--------------------------------------------------------
This is another 1/4 of the problem. There seems to be a major DISCONNECT between the HAVES and the HAVE NOTS among our people. Those of us that manage to achieve some economic sucess often run away and NEVER look back. We just simply look back at the brothers and sisters that we left behind and SHAKE OUR HEADS. Very few of our educated and finacially successful brothers and sisters take the time to actually turn around and TEACH others about how they did what they did to succeed. Yes there are many that are willing to help from a distance, or when its convenient for them to help out. We have 1000s of highly successful business porfesionals and business owners with a WIDE variety of skills and knowledge. The problem is getting enough of them together that are WILLING to come back and teach the masses of our people.
Lastly beloved,the remaining 50% of our problem is the MIND OF OUR PEOPLE. Our thought process is NOT RIGHT. We are the only group of people in the USA that does not think in terms of OWNERSHIP. Even our African brothers and sisters come here looking to OWN. We need to look at EVERYTHING that we do and say, "HOW CAN I GET PAID OF OF THIS".
The trash company known as WASTE MANAGEMENT was started by two white boys and a pick up truck. They started taking charging the neighbors on thier block to take thier trash to the local dump. One street grew to the entire neighbor hood. And now they are WORLD WIDE.
We MUST start a new THOUGHT PROCESS. Otherwise, we will continue to line the pockets of those that laugh at us. We will continue to be the LABOR FORCE instead of being in the position to hire our own.
Of course we ALL will not own a business. Some of us WILL have to continue to work for others. But as a whole, we are better off if we actually had a mindset of buying from our OWN PEOPLE whenever we can.

White people complain about White Chicks. Big deal. Look at all the hundreds of movies that mock black people compared to White Chicks. White Chicks came out a few years ago. Mockery of black people in films has been going on since the beginning of filmmaking. Birth of a Nation being a very early example. You come up with about 25 more examples and you may have an inkling of possibly getting listened to.

It's time for a class action lawsuit against these racist punks. Time for us to learn their ways in detail, their language (check out sisters in Korea on youtube), their ways, and really study them and work on dismantling their hold on this industry. We here in the US, Canada, London/Europe, Caribbean, Africa have the capacity to not only bring them to their knees but to also make their hold, their presence in our economics a thing of the past.
The natural hair movement is just one aspect of it. Time to really put the facts in perspective, framed perfectly and out to the Black consumer in a way that makes this economic terrorism unavoidable, inspiring waves of disgust that breaks their hold perfectly. This unemployment mess is NOT going to improve for us. It's not intended to. Yet, there are jobs in the hood only we don't have them, but we're making them possible. Every foreign owned store you go to doesn't support you. Time to take over those businesses and run them all out. There's nothing they can do when you simply won't buy from them.
Time for another civil rights movement but this time an economics one. You have to watch out though cause every other group is watching and ready to co-opt whatever idea, words, music, whatever we come up with. They like things to be called "people of color" and include the very ones doing the discriminating! I mean for this to be for Black folks and we can leave the ones mixed with Asians out of it as they're loyalties are divided cause Koreans are UNITED in their effort to keep us economically disenfranchised and we have to fight back. It's plain and simple.
This is a war and it's time to know thine enemy well y'all. I feel we need to not only boycott but also do a diaspora wide class action lawsuit with as many of us in it as possible to go up against them and make them pay back what was lost to black business owners, black product manufacturers and to individual Blacks who suffered with this monopoly. We can turn this around. No need for name calling and violence. Just be wily and quick.
Main goal: Drive them out of the entire business from the stores, to the manufacturing of synthetic hair and other products they sell in their stores that are substandard but we just simply accept it without question.
Black folks need to see how well these people do off the money we spend with them.

Okay ya'll, I understand the WTFs, LOL. However, I do believe Mr. Shaw in regards to the amoral record executives. At an early age, I remember liking Gansta Rap, not because of the music but simply because I liked listening to the cuss words. When you grow up with old school parents, it's a treat to sneak and listen to "bad" music. Just as I was drawn into the music for it's dirty lyrics, I'm sure the Gansta Rappers were drawn into the music for the money and fame and all the perks of stardom.
Now that I'm an adult, I can understand the lure and so can the adult record executives. If people stopped buying "bad" music, we will see more positive artists. Bottom line, money dictates what we see and hear and we all know that money corrupts.

"...it wasn’t that Hip Hop changed on its own, it had a little push. I’m a real conspiracy theorist, and I just feel like there had to be a gathering of the major labels and somebody had to say like, “Look, we gotta keep this positive shit off the airwaves and let this booty-shaking shit take over. It’s time.” And after that it’s like the floodgates just opened with sex and violence."
As much of a hypocrite as I think Too Short is, he finally said something that is 100% on point. It is very true indeed that porno-violent-thug hip hop got a "little push" from the evil ones. But what too many don't know, and what Too Short is finally realizing, is that those evil invisible hands who opened the floodgates to sex and violence have been doing this in various ways throughout history, just before they unleashed revolutions against nations they deemed inferior. They unleashed the floodgates of sex and violence on France just before the French and American Revolutions, as well as the Russian Revolution. This is why is it hard for our people to identify these evil ones because we have not been educated by our "schools" to track those demons.

I love how conservatives think JFK was one of them simply because of his invasion of Cuba, his tax cuts, and his rhetoric. They should take a good look at his New Frontier which includes BIG GOVERNMENT SOCIALIST policies like unemployment and welfare benefit expansion, massive investments in infrastructure, water pollution control acts, significant amounts of anti-poverty legislation, increases in social security benefits, increases in the minimum wage, public works packages,
