​This controversial piece is kind of like my Twitter Tweets of The Week. Once in a while I cruise around Twitter and talk about many random things trending but this time it will be with post from Instagram. Sometimes there is audio so please don't forget to click on the links in purple to listen in. I will always and forever dedicate this controversy towards the black liberation for melanated people and agendas of freedom in all of our nations! Remember that sometimes you will be offended by some of these Instagram posts. It might help you think about your views on things or change your perspective. The title does say this is about controversy. I hope you feel some kind of way. You're supposed to! This edition of controversy is all about the perception and misinformation. Of course, all of the lies and double standards!

This first Instagram post absolutely has nothing to do with Oprah or any other celebrity making the well-known statement about our King-Papas being the dads and responsible men we know are present. You can't put melanated people in a box. The dominant society have tried but guess what, no men are perfect. You're not perfect either, women. Granted, all life experiences are situational. Are there some knucklehead fathers in the world? Yes, but we are not going to ignore all of the men who are doing what they're supposed to be doing! It is a positive thing for Oprah to say, but we already know this truth!

I try my best to debunk those heavy weights of stereotypes and generalizations about our King-Papas at all times. No one is denying a person's experience with their father or their child's dad. What is antediluvian thinking doing in the back of your mind? We are different, we are not all the same and you cannot put us in a box! Nice try!

Are we offended by this? Lord knows we are not surprised. Why get offended? We are quite aware of the skin we live in. We know that there are Europeans in this world who teach our kids, service us in the medical field, work with us, and who live by us that see us as niggers! Your job as melanated people is to know the difference. Pray for spiritual discernment because men and women who do not care for your well-being are dangerous sneaky people. Don't leave your kids around these people. That man is very comfortable using that word because that is who he is. Here is a secret that they don't know. Most seasoned melanated people can see right through your hate. They wonder why we want our own, everything.

I heard about a lot of these so-called faith leaders and teachers doing this. We have to be very alert and prepared to practice our self-defense rights. Please stop trusting everyone in a church with your kids. Yahweh said to trust no man. Watch out for your wives and partners in these churches. Some are stealing and selling women into sex trafficking. Be careful! They sometimes look just like you and they have kids. They even use kids to lure you in. Don't talk to strangers and do stay on guard!

Oh lord! Ok Cassidy has good truthful points. This should not be normalized. We have to change the narrative. I don't care who it is or what year it was. This is not ok! Grown men driving by high schools trying to pick up young girls is not ok. As parents and men in a community, we all have to step up and get involved. I can attest to seeing girls from my high school dating older men as well. We have to do better. Also, there is a time and place when you should NOT mind your own business. What if the young lady or girl was your daughter or niece? 

Welcome to the supreme world of double standards. You already know where I am going. They can scream and sing mentally ill statements in court, and they get a pass from the prosecutor and the judge. Not these types of men. I won't even bring up the many people that were killed by them, or how they got their guns. They always see "their" own way different than the rest of the American people. Now, was it wrong for this man to shoot and kill? Um, yes! What about the mitigating circumstances surrounding his actions? He was given the wrong medicine. 

Where is the outrage for this murder? This European man placed a homeless man in a chokehold and killed him. He got away with it. We can't even serve our community, serve our country as veterans, or do our jobs without being attacked by a Karen or someone who is threatened by our skin color. That man should be in jail for murder. All the people who held him down should be in jail too. If black or melanated men did that, whether the homeless man was white or black, all those men would be in jail. Double standards are exhausting when you are an indigenous, melanated individual.

The reality of this statement is paramount to your family. They really don't want you to be an advocate for your children so they can throw them in jail. Are you paying attention? As parents it is your responsibility to ensure your children are being properly prepared for their future and educated. You have to do your due diligence. You have to work with them at home. If a teacher doesn't care about your child, they are not going to help them. Regardless, if the teacher is European or indigenous. It is your job to know what's going on with your child. 

All charges were thankfully dropped but not for Daniel Triplett. He went to jail for killing when he was investigated by the cops. The Gaddafi monopoly was meant to only live in defeat. Why isn't our government applying that same energy to the fake meat they approved for Americans to eat? Politics came into the mix with a victory win by a black man with beautiful dark skin. Then 27 kids went missing as black men and women nurses continue their thirst not to be treated as second class nurses. Open your eyes and please pay full attention to all of these 2023 mentions that may Appeal to you!

All Charges Dropped (Yall Better Stop)

Do you really expect any child to just allow a man or any person to knock their parents all upside their head and do nothing? A physical assault happened. Of course, we do not condone violence but as a society, we are all a bit perturbed at these lost souls thinking they can do what they want to do and receive no consequences for their actions. This situation was awful. The young man met his match as my granny Lula would always say. This young man violated a woman who had a son. The son tried to defend his mom. He shot and killed the man who hit his mama. They (mom & son) both went to jail and they were released with no charges on their records. All the criminal charges were dismissed. Thank God!

FAKE MEAT NOT FOR ME

I do not understand why the government approved this unnatural substance. We have to seriously fight back. I think I won't be getting it on over there in the new meat section anymore. This is unreal.

Micro Aggressive Lessons (Racism)

My old neighbor was a nurse.  She had various degrees in nursing. She told me a story once where her son had to go to the emergency room. She took him then she sat back down to watch the interaction of the person who was supposed to be helping him. The person at the front desk was giving him a very hard time, like what he was saying didn't matter or he was making stuff up. My neighbor intervened and asked for a nurse. The nurse came out and she also played the role of no empathy. It was a form of racism. The nurse assumed my neighbor was just some random person or parent with no medical knowledge. She was wrong. They were both erroneous. My neighbor checked both of the women. The front desk woman and the nurse. Incidentally they were both European. After my neighbor spoke in their language they rushed her son in and he was out within the hour. Why did it take all of that? If it was any other group there would not have been any hassle and disbelief would have not occurred. There are all sorts of medical lies from the man who experimented on slaves. That residue is taught to those folks in the medical profession. If melanated women are in pain, "hey, they can take it" ignore them. If our babies are crying they don't cuddle with them. The disparities that happen in the medical profession would be extremely worse if black men and women were not around to be a voice for those who don't know any better.  Black or melanated women have all kinds of medical complications because they are not believed or taken seriously. Representation matters. Ask Ms. McElroy. 

I have a few families and friends that are male and female who rock that black girl magic as nurses. The men also vibrate high in their black boy joy (RIP JP). It is refreshing to see a professional person who looks like you when you go to a hospital. They will ensure you are cared for; they will advocate for you and watch over you. Representation matters. I am so thankful to them all. As a matter of fact, during Covid-19 I believe even more individuals were thankful and that appreciation is permeated towards the profession of nurses, even more.

You have to concede, they work their butts off. Black or melanted nurses have to dance around the racism they receive while working, from patients and of course from their peers. They deal with a lot of stress, difficult people, and crazy working hours. Please try your best to remember to be nice and pleasant to all of the nurses but especially the melanated ones. If you are melanted, welcome to the trauma of racism in the healthcare profession.  Keep your heads up. All of the Sancti-Fly Mamas and Papas praying for you guys. You are backed by divine power!

The Gaddafi Monopoly (I believe)

According to this source, the real reason Gaddafi was killed was because he was trying to help the African and Muslim nations obtain economic freedom. Those naughty Europeans did not like that. Gaddafi's master plan would have really hurt the United States of America and Europe.  As you know or if you have been paying attention to history, they (United States) are always lusting to control all things. They get jealous when they feel like they are losing any little piece of control. That is a fact. Gaddafi owned 100% of their own banking system in Libya. Muammar Gaddafi strategically planned to introduce gold as its currency and shake up the euro and the dollar. It was and is always going to be about money or fear. Most of the time both (money and fear) with these folks. What are your thoughts? 

30 Missing Kids (Um Where Yall Been)

I often say, if I was in the black-market snatching kids, I would be rich. Ask me why? Okay, I'll tell you why. When I go shopping in grocery stores or any store, I always see little kids who are NOT standing by or with their parents. I could have snatched so many little ones. In less than a minute. Please stop doing that! Keep your children by you at all times. I know you are hearing and reading about all these children missing. Here is another story to add to a warning for you to plan ahead. This is not about fear. This is about all of us as a community being prepared and watchful.

What is going on in Cleveland? Parents and community members please watch over your babies and young adults. Stay alert. I say, it's better to always be overprotected than lackadaisical in this era of our generation. How did almost 30 children end up missing over a two-weeks in Cleveland? This should concern us all. Please stop taking these warnings so lightly. Stay on your kids and young people. Have them call you or text when they arrive and leave. Pay attention moms, dads, uncles, aunts, grandparents and all the rest of the people who care about children. I should not have to say this but sometimes people just do not know. If you do not know the family of the child your kids are asking you to sleep over at, the answer should be no. We have to all intervene. Do you really have to throw your kids out of the house because they got pregnant, or love the same-sex? You might want to reevaluate these decisions. Our babies are coming up missing and it is not just in Cleveland. It is world wide. Please do not throw them to the wolves. 

Politics in The Victory Mix (Yusef)

​There tends to be an increasing drought of empathy when it comes to certain groups of people, and yes political parties, class, sex, race, you name it, it's all there. This is where representation and diversity kicks in. It is imperative just in case you didn't know. As we always understand and say in all black melanated communities, white folks don't really care about anything unless they are directly affected by it. We need to be at every table. Groom your kids to take a seat.

Anyway, Americans are so done with these politicians. We are. It doesn't matter if you are part of the Democratic, Republican, or Independent Party. They are all allowing our food to be poisoned. They are allowing gun violence to continue to run rampant. I will not even mention the latest mass shooting because it will go on happening, again. They allow melanated folks to be brutalized by these law enforcement agencies. They are allowing Bill Gates to play God with our lives. Only the red states appear to be fighting back. The blue states are silent. 

There are still good men and women who actually do care about the constituents they represent. I actually know a few. Yusef Salaam is one of those persons. Yusef was a child when he was accused of raping a white woman as she was jogging around Central Park in New York. Yusef and 4 young melanated black men were all accused of the rape. It was pure fabrication. Yusef spent years in jail for the wrongful conviction. When Yusef was released, Yusef was awarded monetary damages. Yusef Salaam recently won the New York City Council Primary in Harlem. People who have been through wrongful convictions and abused by our government authorities are the ones we need to support. Yusef is passionate about justice. The outsiders are the ones that want to be the change they want to see. I pray for more of these American people to join these parties. Can you imagine if there was a shift in these political parties? If we had less lawyers but regular people who wanted to rock in public serve with some righteousness in the mix of politics, it would be major. We definitely would see the trajectory of a new wave of leaders. We can start with term limits. Can you say ridiculous!

Daniel Triplett is Cold-Blooded

Why would an employer murder his employee? No one really knows. Mr. Daniel Triplett was a leader in his community as a councilman and also a businessman. Daniel Triplett was convicted of 1st Degree Murder for killing his ex-employee in April of 2023. Daniel told the court Mr. Mack became irate when he fired him. He said Mack attacked him. He had to defend himself (yeah right). In September of 2021 Mr. Triplett fired his former employee, Brent Mack and gave Mack his last check of $1000. Tripplett even had Brent dig his own grave. Investigators found Brent Mack's body in a septic tank. Triplett obviously thought Mack was nothing more than sewage and waste. Mr. Triplett lied to Mack's family and to the police. Daniel Triplett stated he dropped Brent Mack off at a local laundromat in Guthrie, Oklahoma. It was discovered that Triplett shot Brent Mack in the back. 

This is what the world has succumbed to. You not only have to tell girlfriends or trusted sources about men and women who you go out on dates with, but also beg your kids to allow you to know their locations. Now you are also encouraged to let others know your whereabouts as it relates to your working environments. I pray for an elevated level of discernment for all of us. If something seems off, go in the other direction, do not go, or simply say no thank you. If you have to go, bring a witness with you and maybe learn to practice your second amendment rights. 

The Real Deal is The Appeal

As I always say, if you are working in criminal justice or in law or law students, please subscribe to The Appeal. They have extraordinary investigating reporters who give you information on politics, policing, criminalization, persecution and everything in between. If you have melanated kids you are raising, it’s imperative for you to get close to The Appeal. The Appeal will expose, and they fight for the underdogs. Stay in the know! Please support them.

​This controversial piece is kind of like my Twitter Tweets of The Week. Once in a while I cruise around Twitter and talk about many random things trending but this time it will be with post from Instagram. Sometimes there is audio so please don't forget to click on the links in purple to listen in. I will always and forever dedicate this controversy towards the black liberation for melanated people and agendas of freedom in all of our nations! Remember that sometimes you will be offended by some of these Instagram posts. It might help you think about your views on things or change your perspective. The title does say this is about controversy. I hope you feel some kind of way. You're supposed to! This edition of controversy is all about paying attention to what's right and what's wrong. SMH!

According to this man. Men only need 5 things from a woman. He said:

1 GRATITUDE
2 LOYALTY
3 SEX
4 UNDERSTANDING 
5 ATTENTION TO DETAIL 

Do you agree or disagree? Take notes women! What do you think men? I know some women love to change the topic, but this is about men. Please keep that in mind. Sure, men can do things we need but hush and maybe learn something new that can benefit you. Some women know this. Some don't.

Tell me how anyone cannot fall in love with this! Oh, my goodness. I never even knew men did this or witnessed an example of a man nurturing his wife after she gave birth. He is helping her in the most intimate way. Wow! I love this!

Listen to this European man! This man is stating the same facts we have been saying in melanated black communities. They stole our wealth and still profit off of it. I told you that wypipo know our truth. Then they (some) got the nerve to kill affirmative action in college admissions. 

They always lying. If the shoe fit, yeah, I am totally talking about you. As I always say, study your history melanated people. Teach your kids their history because European historians have not been telling the truth. Check out the expression on the man's face in this video. He is confronted with truth.

The first Instagram post is from Moor Threads. It is something that YOU KNOW I am in total agreement with if you know me! Of course, it is ok for melanated folks
to focus their economics exclusively on themselves. A lot of other groups do it. When melanated people start doing it the dominant society has a major problem with them engaging to be self-sufficient and glow in their efforts of sustainability. They all know the spending power of black people. They want those dollars to stay in their pockets. Thankfully the narrative is changing. Melanated individuals are snuggling close to wisdom. They have their own gardens and farms. Clothes and material things do not condition their minds. Financial literary helps to bless their history forward, so they bathe in it. 

When you care about your children, you educate them properly and you tell them the truth.  We need our own schools for that. We need things exclusively for us because no one else will do it, or can do it for us, better than us! Just look around. Black folks fighting for the same struggles their ancestors died for. It is utterly imperative for us to have things exclusively for us.

Black oppression? Is that real, or are melanated people making this stuff up? I think we should tune into what Dr. Umar is saying on jaronmaysworks page. It is quite alright if you don't care for Dr. Umar. I don't agree with everything he says. In this Instagram post, he is speaking no lies. Listen to what he is articulating! The foundation of the colonizers put a formula in place that has us all confused, drenched and soaked in division. Their plan has worked. They put the white skin against black skin, religion against religion and man against woman. Europeans have been lied to, thinking they are the superior race (not true). Black folks used to be trained to believe they were. Not anymore. People say there is no superior race. I always heard of the human race. Too bad that isn't the norm. All life came from the womb of a melanated black woman, so why are you guys hating on the melanin? We are all actually family and cousins. Skin color means nothing but that is how they framed it. We are all so used to black oppression and each of us play our roles in it! So, yes, it's real. Melanated people live with oppression every day. We have learned how to navigate it better than others and we keep on rising!

The music business has definitely changed, and Jadakiss has thoughts on why it has gone down.​ Have you listened to your local radio stations lately? I'm talking about this new Hip Hop? It is like punishment! What in the world is going on with these record labels? They push out anything! They allow everything negative. I am in agreement with JadaKiss. I also think Ye (Kanye) was not lying when he mentioned something similar about the music business. Those men and women who own, operate and dominate the music business are quick to call all other groups out but look at what they are doing. They allow the only group they know that has been oppressed in this world to dehumanize their communities and of course themselves and profit off of it tremendously. You do not see "their own" people singing about the crap black artists put in their lyrics. They are proud hypocrites. People want to make it in the music business so bad, they are easy to control and manage. Our ancestors did not die so young and older folks in the music business could taint their bloodlines. Those labels definitely should be held responsible for those violent lyrics. Period.

This was shocking but I am really not surprised. What about you? This is why we need to protect black women and girls. I am talking directly to black men. Your backs should not be bent when it comes to the women in your family and in your community. Straighten your backs up brothers. When things happen to the black woman, we know better than to expect the dominant society to help find them if they are missing, kidnapped or follow up with us on criminal matters. We hope for the best. There are a variety of melanated women who are married (yes) and single. They are all practicing their second amendment rights to bear arms, but they still need men to be men! We need you! Sex trafficking is real. Violence in all areas is prevalent. Thankfully New Era has a bunch of melanated King-Papas that do protect black women. Every state needs a chapter. If you want to start a chapter in your state or city, please do. 

I really wish parents would be more mindful of their surroundings when they are out with their little ones. There are so many kids I could have snatched if I was part of that group of monsters that prey on black women and children. The mom is always in one part of the aisle in the store and the child is often in 2 or 3 aisles
away. Like, please stop, women. Keep your kids and young teens by you! You know if you lost your child or if someone took them your heart would stop. There are people who look just like you who sit in parking lots or go into stores to find their target. Be ye safe, stay prayerful and careful. Command your mornings and evenings with your angels to guard you daily. Pay attention to your surroundings Most importantly, practice your second amendment rights.

Bill and Melinda Gates talk about too much population in our world, and they say we have to get rid of it. How? This man explains what they said. God said be ye fruitful and multiple the land. Then Mr. Bill and Mrs. Melinda Gates said, yall doing too much with all this population on the earth. They said please stop! Wait! Did the Gates create the world (No)? Ok, what about the planet earth (No)? Ok so why are people listening to these people? If they feel like the earth has too many people, it really isn't their lane. Let Yahweh be God. The creator can handle it.

What's going on with these checkerboards and secret hand gestures? I heard these were Hollywood symbols on Soproud2beblack page. Can we say secret society? Be careful what you ask for people. Everyone can't handle being a star or famous. It's not for everybody. 

All of the melanated people who work in journalism or in the media are joining this man in his truth.com choir. We know that they do this! You know it too! They always bring up what the melanated people did. They demonize everything they can. When it comes to "them" Mikey was a troubled kid but he was an A student.
Okay, bump that! Little Mookie grew up in a gang family and dropped out of school to help his mom have some food and he was smart too, but he got caught up in a bad criminal case. They don't care about Lil Mookie, but Mikey reminds them of them! Mikey gets all the symptoms of sympathy +empathy and a slap on the wrist. What you think Mookie gone get?

We need to influence our melanated kids to be the future judges, lawyers, and politicians. We need to be exclusively represented so white supremacy can die and oppression can too! It is a pass due bill, for real.

This last Instagram post is from return2kings. This lady is discussing the topic of men and women relationship. This controversy is very thirsty of common sense smothered in pieces of offense. Listen to her! Oh, my Lord!

SHE SAID RUN FOR THE HILLS

If your woman doesn't have her dad in her life.
If she doesn't believe that men are the prize
if she cannot name 10 books.
If she doesn't go to the gym.
if she doesn't know how to cook home cooked meals.
If she doesn't know what nurturing is.

She said a few more things. Please listen. I understand that a lot of women will jump on the defense and say men don't do these things but please keep in mind this is for the men! Everything is situational. This is her opinion. You don't have to agree!

I only have four words. Grow your own food. Genetically Modified Chicken has been around for a while now. Is this why cancer, diabetes and every other form of sickness is rapid in our land? I do not fully understand how the leaders of this great American nation can allow these atrocities to have its way in our food. Tell me why nothing is being done about these poisons in our foods without telling me nothing is being done. Why aren't these Democrats and Republicans fighting for us to have healthy food and better labels on our food? Do they really think a form of toxic meat is what their constituents want to put in their bodies? I know they don't eat genetically modified meats, willingly. What is The Drug and Food Administration doing (um...nothing)?

Again, why is this inflammatory disease by the name of carrageenan free to roam around the earth in our foods with no consequences? The Food and Drug Administration is not protecting us. This should be illegal guys!

No thank you Mr. Meat Glue! We have all of these rules and regulations in our society to keep us in order that we follow. What happened to stopping meat glue from being in our foods?

Wait, so now we can't even eat salmon? Oh, my, goodness! This is epic. This is really getting on my nerves. The fresh ocean water salmon fish is being eaten up and attacked by the cloned fish. Seriously, why is this permitted? I think it's about time we all band together and demand for our foods to be regulated to protect us. Did someone say plant-based taste? Ok, trying more of that.

Please take heed on these things. I believe it is imperative to help you fight for your health. Feel free to do your own research and use some of these remedies. You have to be your own advocate for yourself and your family. They are not coming to save you. Do you not see what's going on?

Listen very carefully to this. Martin Luther King parents and family members did not experience life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. They were murdered.

This antidote of hope is in your men, your sons, and all of your black male family members. Our history is rich. Our ancestors were extremely self-sufficient. They built wealth and left some for their bloodlines. Despite the constant battle to not be viewed as human beings. They soared. I call them King-Papas. 

Artificial intelligence is soon approaching to take over the world. This robot is a stripper. This robot is on a pole gyrating. Lord have mercy on us. Are you guys paying attention to these things? I hope and pray you are.  

This man is super excited about melanin being used to help computer chips. I want to know where these people (wypipo) are getting their melanin from. That's crazy!

I'm coming in hot, with some Fred Flintstone tunes. "Yabba dabba doo" to those oldskool moms. I am very thankful for them. 

If you grew up hearing words like:

Stop running in and out of my house...
You better use that same cup...
You better not ask for ANYTHING when we go into this store...
If you don't eat that food, then you just won't eat...

You had one of those oldskool gems.

Words are impactful. The right words can lift a person up or destroy them. Music has the same effect. The lyrics in gospel music only adds to positive vibrations. The best part about gospel music is the entire family can vibe to it. It is very safe. Some songs have lyrics that grieve your spirit, negatively. Music definitely heals people. I am so thankful for the genre of gospel music. I wanted to use all upbeat songs but I decided to use three fast and three slower temple songs to hopefully minister to all who listens in on this edition of Black Music Month.

I absolutely love this song. This is a song that I encourage you to listen to daily. Try to listen to it in the mornings at home or in your car. Nothing is going to bring you down. If it tries to, your positive aura and the lyrics in this song will knock all of that negative energy right out of your way. You are blessed! You will feel quite alright. Try your best to let nothing bring you down.

Welcome to another happy upbeat gospel song. You have to focus in on these dope, sancti-fly lyrics. Nothing is going to stop you but you. Keep affirming your goals, plans and dreams. She said excuses will not help you reach your goals! Ouch, right. If I ever did a video, I would eagerly incorporate skating into it. I love to skate. Lena is telling us to change our thinking. Think outside the box. You got this. This is such an amazing inspirational song.

This other upbeat song by Erica Campbell breaks any low mood and instantly brings you joy. When I hear this song, I will immediately stop what I'm doing to soak in the sun of this song. This song has personally helped me gain positive energy again and again. When the creator of this universe shows you how much you are loved by Yahweh, you will feel it. Even if you don't necessarily listen to gospel music, you will enjoy listening to this. Play this song every day. This is one of my favorite songs of 2022, but I still adore it in 2023.

Throughout our lives we will encounter good days and bad days. Despite any of the chapters we are in, God has shown his goodness to us all. If you journaled the pros and cons of your life and was honest with yourself, I bet you have had some of God's goodness. I am a witness that life can become extremely difficult for some and even worse for others. I pray this song will help those that really need it. May the goodness of Yahweh run after you and chase you down in blessings. 

I believe Yahweh can and will do the impossible for whomever is chosen to get the miracle or blessing. These gospel songs really do help strengthen your faith when you are up against little giants or big ones. God will humble you and those who dare try to fight against you. God will stand against them. You have to believe that Yahweh will do it. 

We have to believe that things will get better in time. The waiting period is such a hard process. Like when God? I don't mean to digress, but I can recall hearing different speakers and preachers say "God will open up the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing that you won't have room to receive it all" ok like when is that going to happen (lol)? Has anyone that you know experienced this? Melanated people give to the black church faithfully. I was just wondering if you know of anyone who has received what they been preaching in Malachi. I don't  know anyone who received such a blessing. Ok back to the song. "Hang on in there" is what we love saying, right? It will get better. It has to.

Sorry to inform you that TikTok just won't stop. The heart of white supremacy will not stop bleeding either. Rasheem's life is a witness to those blood stains. Black farmers are also caught up in the Matrix of the white man's reign. Uganda told those Americans no. Uganda said go straight to hell and used their own black oil seeds extremely well. Sometimes a bill does pass but is it in the best interest of the people? In 2023 black men are still being called 'colored' and treated as an unequal. Please pay close attention to these important, irritating mentions and hopefully something will Appeal to you!

RASHEEM CARTER SLAUGHTERED

Mississippi has always been burning in their state of white supremacist nature way before the Emmett Till lynching. In the black community, Mississippi was a state you had to be cautious in. Especially around certain parts. Obviously, folks who are melanated still do need to be careful. Rasheem Carter was working in a town called Taylorsville when he was slaughtered and hunted. The melanated community is saying that someone Emmett Till'ed, Rasheem Carter. Rasheem Carter told his mom he feared for his life before he was murdered. Then he was missing and found dead. His remains were disgustingly dismembered. His head was not on his body. The sheriff told the family that there was no foul play. Well, someone killed Rasheem! Melanated parents, please talk to your sons and all of your children. Even if they are young adults or out of your house. Ask them if you can track their location. We have to arm ourselves with our second amendment rights. We have to try our best to stay in groups when we are in areas where the racial hatred is high. We can pray, but we have to have action behind it! No mom wants this happening to their melanated sons. We owe it to ourselves to plan and prepare to put our lives first.

BLACK FARMERS VS KOCH FOODS

I recently updated my social media skills by learning about TikTok. There is a lot of pertinent information on there. You have to also weed out truth from fiction. I understand why the United States wants to ban TikTok. It should not be banned. Anyway, I came across the subject of black farmers being discriminated against by Koch Foods. A melanated farmer named Carlton Sanders was trying to pull himself up by his bootstraps and Koch Foods knocked him down. Sanders lost everything. Koch wanted Sanders to make costly renovations but did not require the white farmers to do the same. Hey! That sounds like discrimination. We don't own nothing, so we have to always go through them for most things. Yes, like the majority of melanated people who are woke, it is time to get serious about our bodies and what we put into our temples. Growing your own food is on a lot of our minds. There is too much poison in our food. The average melanated family cannot afford to buy organic food all of the time. We need melanated farmers. They don't think so. Shame, shame, shame!

UNITED STATES GOT A LOT OF NERVE FOR UGANDA 

Did you know that the United States of America threatened to take their aid away from Uganda if they did not legalize Gay rights? Yep, we sure did. I know you're not surprised. The president of Uganda told them no, firmly. Why do we think we can bully other countries and tell them how to run their country? If Uganda does not want to legalize LGQBT rights, isn't that their prerogative? The United States really should be concerning themselves with all of the turbulent matters we have in our country. Like school shootings, modern-day lynching, our economy, our corrupt leaders, you know, stuff like that!

BILL S4090

The Dietary Supplement Listing Act was passed in 2022. This bill states that any company has to list their ingredients and label everything according to the FDA satisfaction. Nothing wrong with transparency, right. Well, some people think this bill will stop folks from buying natural herbs. What do you think?

THE ONLY COLORED CONSTRUCTION MAN

​Sometimes I do not understand why melanated people desire to be the only one at their jobs or in their professional careers or the only melanated family living on the same block with folks that don't want them there. On the other hand, I do get it. Melanated people want the best schools for their children and sometimes the location is predominantly European. If you are going through hell just to live by them, is it worth it? Yes and no, I surmise. Also, when we are hired for our jobs, we don't really know we are the token ones until we get in. Is it worth it? Well, I think so, but aren't we tired of this? This kind of situations constantly falls into our laps.

Corey Joye worked for AJS Masonry, Inc. On his second day he and another co- worker (white) were told there was a microwave they could use to warm up their lunch. The supervisor told him he would have to enter from a different section of the door because he was a colored (black) man. Yep, the man in charge said that to Corey Joye in 2023. Mr. Jim Shellenberger said it. Now Mr. Joye has filed a lawsuit against the company. The end!

Love may be in the air so grab some. It's always good to groove to the tunes of great love songs. My goal is to make these songs as mushy as possible...lol! You know my signature is the preference of old school music. Especially when it is Black Music Month. Relax and listen!

These oldskool songs bring back the best memories. Remember how you felt in that moment when you were driving in the car with your "boo" and this song had the nerve to come on every time you love birds got in the car. Or he played it in the car on purpose because he knew you liked it. It was the theme you guys had to flirt with. Before he dropped you off or got out of his car, of course he could get a kiss goodnight. He was the sweetest and you know you wanted his lips on yours. You always gave him one because in those days the men were a bit more mannerable. Sometimes they would ask "Can I get a kiss goodnight" and other times it just happened spontaneously! Yeah!

There are some men and women that cross our paths that we will never forget. If you are with that person, that's great! I'm happy for you. We can't control who we like, love or fall in love with. So, no matter who you end up with, you will always love the one that you feel got away or the person you believe you were meant to be with. Hopefully you are with him or her but if not, this song is perfect for the reality that it does happen. Will you settle or will you opt in growing old alone? You will always have love for that special person who left that love stain in your heart. 

Word up! Like oh, my, goodness! This song makes you feel so good when you listen to it. When you are really into the vibe of another person and the feeling is mutual, there are sparkles in your eyes. Maybe even butterflies too! The look, the oxytocin feeling, the love dance, plus romance leads to the magic of this song. This is definitely a slow jam goodie. When he looks at you and you see a sparkle in his eyes, gurrrrl  he loves you. Okay, maybe a very strong like. 😊

Jody Watley was part of the group Shalamar along with Howard Hewitt and her boyfriend, Jeffrey Daniel.This classic love song was another jam we grew up on. If our parents listened to it, the song was embedded into our brain. It was all over the place when a man made up his mind to ask his lady to marry him. The best thing about writing love songs with marriage proposals as the theme is limitless royalties. You know people are going to play this at weddings, always. It's got to be real because he said he can write a book on how you make him feel. You are good at making him laugh too. With this ring he assures you that there aren't any maybes. He is sure you are the one girl! Congratulations to all the summer love. 

You were in high school acting like your crush on those young men and women was everything. All you did was think about him or her. Unfocused as ever...lol. We couldn't wait to get to school each day for that special person to walk our way. We made sure we looked cute or fly. This song brings back such good memories. It can also bring about different perceptions of love in an unlustful way. You can definitely attach the title of the song to friends or family that you miss. I used to dislike beans. All I do is think about cooking and eating beans more. I honor a family member by cooking beans often, like every week. She loved beans.

Hey! I said hey, don't stop the romance on each other. Keep it going. Your mate or partner desires it. Romance him. Romance her. Get new ideas. It's really the best prerequisite to a love attack when they least expect it. Glenn Jones is on a mission to encourage you not to get complacent in romancing your lady or man. Love attacks kill stress and bad moods. Kiss her before you leave for work. Hug him before he leaves for work. Get off that phone and give him your full attention when he comes home. Pick up dinner once in a while so she won't have to cook. Even if she enjoys cooking. Surprise him at work with lunch. Text, write mushy love notes to each other.  Research ways to please each other. You guys have only just begun. Life is short. Be romantic and create those good memories.

I had to add this particular song again. Only because I recently got on stage and sang this song last month during karaoke. Yes, I did. The stage was huge. There was a live band behind me, but no one was playing the instruments. It's nice to have a love of your own. Don't wait until too late to give, so that you can get love. You have to take a chance. I know this band is not all melanated black folks, but this group was well received by those in the melanated community. I wish you all the joy of having a wonderful love of your own. This is good Black Music Month music to snuggle up close to. Add it to your library. According to these lyrics, The longer it takes, the better you come to know, a love of your own. 

Go ahead and throw all the negative shade you want to, but history was made as Halle became the first melanated "Little Mermaid." Halle Bailey is absolutely an elevated piece of elegance in that silvery white goddess dress. Halle gimme that entire look. Thank you for giving us all of that good energy as you rock that gown in all of your magic. The hair and the stare are beautiful elements of wow! No one can deny it!

Gone gurrrrl! You look amazingly gorgeous! Thank you for giving us tons of ideas to hunt down the perfect black dress. Gimme all of those detailed lines printed in the style of this dress. You guys see how impactful those designs are, right? This black dress was made especially for a queen named Halle! Gimmie that!

Halle is a brown skin girl. She deserves the best in the world. Her skin is just like pearls. Why not have this kind of image playing the role as a mermaid? Look at Halle in this stunning dress. You know she is glowing from head to toe! The top of her gown is dripping with a feathery tease of attention. I believe that her back is out. The waistline is strategically designed to remind you that Halle is a mama of fashion. Gimme that entire look. Ooowee!

Sophistication came by caressing your mind with Halle Bailey right on time in this look. We all stopped in awe of her presence. Halle girl, gimme that bliss of wonderfulness stitched in the perfect capture of your essence. The breast, the upper and lower designs of this dress make a statement that "you are the best" don't stop rocking your melanin magic.
