First and foremost stop marking urself as “black” on documents & in the public.
By marking urself “black”..u are saying that u have ZERO rights..in the eyes of U.S. Law & International Law. If u have copper colored skin..U are what is called an Autochthon..an original being of the land..land where u are truly from.
Not all “black” melanated people were slaves shipped from the African continent either. The “African Diaspora” happened thousands..possibly millions of years before 1400 AD. Ur not a slave. Ur not godLESS. U have been a victim of what the Churches have done since the days of Jesus. (yeshua) The Churches sent military all around the world & our ppl became POWs prisoners of war..not slaves..& got caught up the Catholic/Christian Inquisition.
That whole “all black ppl come from Africa“ narrative is a paleskin-eugenicist made up idea built on racism, Darwinism & the book “The Secret Doctrine” by Helena Blavatsky.
All of those ideas are paleskin narratives attempting to write themselves into history, erase the history of a melanated planet & hide the truth of how we got to this point in time. Earth is still majority darkskinned..even after all of the deception.
So called white ppl are not the big bad wolf that the world portrays them to be. They are beneficiaries of what was built in the past & ultimately they are stateless in the eyes of International Law. Figurines. So called “white ppl” have only been here on Earth for 500-2000 years tops. The further archaeologists go back in time & look at past peoples..the darker the skin they find gets.
Look deeper into history & u will see that the perpetrators of our oppression..the Clergy, the Conquistadors, the Templars & the Monarchies of Europe were darkskinned, mixed or “passing white“. J Edgar Hoover type niggas that were selling out their own 😴 the final boss is most likely darkskinned with “white”, Indian or Asian henchmen
That’s enough internet for today
happy birthday

Thanks! I really like the style of Kara Walker and Jacob Lawrence.
Archibald Motley has amazing expressions, can really feel the atmosphere!

Rebecca Maria got some cool paintings/art if you want something contemporary


These are dope
Wow, Augusta Savage is really cool
This hits on a spiritual level, created by the hand of God.


Nah it's more that you linked Critical Race Theory to some sort LGBTQ agenda to assimilate itself into Black culture or something (I got some news for you on that too potna) and that says you very clearly have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
Maybe you're just better off actually reading it before speaking on it.
No.
That's not very smart buddy. You dont need to read it to link it to some political movements.
I said that there is a possible link to the LBGT movement. My words were very clear. Now you can always CLAIM I know nothing but that claim alone is irrelevant and just opening your mouth to say nothing.
I maintain what I said in my original comment. My words were very precise.
Thanks for responding. That's the same hesitancy I have with CRT, it's the groups that're attached to it. Flip side, Caucasians both liberal and conservative are uniting saying that they "Refuse to pay for the sins of their forefathers" is what keeps me interested in it.
Good point. Same here. Of course I'm opposed to disliking anything those cave people dislike, so I haven't completely shut down this subject yet.
But yeah when you look at the people that promote it, it's just weird.
Also note that this could be just another proxy debate that is gonna distract from the real subject which is reparations.
And some of these black people engage in these nonsense debates with them white folks out of personal interest, to fund their own private little thing they have going on or for political clout. I can totally see the Democrats jumping all over this.
And like I said before, the points were made by our elders ages ago, there is no need to put a new term behind it.
The whole thing seems very suspect.
We should honestly create our own sxn
More like our own website.
We been asking for a section on the last site for years. It will not happen.
It’s the same nigga that made this thread
https://ktt2.com/american-indians-were-black-120134
His long comment sounded stupid and all over the place. I didnt reac much of it, it was annoying.
But American Indians were definatly black though, he's right on that.
A broken clock is right sometimes. Truth is truth regardless of who it comes from
You're all over the place in your other post.
But I have to agree with you in this.
guys
ok so im mixed and have had a racial indentity crisis my whole life
from hanging out with the white kids to hanging out with black kids to talking white and "acting black" i have finally come to the conclusion that i can have white friends and black friends
literally my family made it seem like i can only have friends of a certain race group
my life has been a lie
It's just like having a French and an Italian parent.
You could be both but when you look at the political dynamics, it would be more reasonable to choose a side. Especially if one side is extremely racist.
we’ve been asking s and the ktt mods for our own section for the longest and nobody seems to have an answer as to why we can’t
Its called racism.
tariq nasheed kicked that s*** into full gear lol
Not just him.
Our elders like John Henry Clark and others.
Both sections would just perpetuate racism
No. Not the black section. It would be just like this thread.
Division is a problem, we need to get to the point where we're all just people. That should be the goal
Slurs are still not cool on either side
Nonsense.
That will never be the goal of white people.
Black people tried that for 500 years.
Time to move on.
@Dionne the real problem is you niggas who were told you never accomplished nothing but slavery, which is basically what black America and the descendants of slavery are taught. That Your history is nothing but slavery. That’s a way to pacify you and keep you ignorant, and honestly it works. Most of you niggas don’t have a damn clue. So when you start to learn something about history you got hotep fools telling you all this that you did and you negros cling to it because you have no idea about what people accomplished on your land or even in the Americas. Learn your real history. It’s rich and full of accomplishments that other black people aren’t aware of as well. I commend you for learning and trying to seek out knowledge tho
Now you never answered my question: if the American Indians were black what exactly does it change for black Americans right now? We are still a dysfunctional group with almost no wealth, so what exactly changes? Nothing
It changes the rights to own the place.
Right now the white supremacists are trying to start a movement were black Americans descendants of slaves contributed nothing more than other immigrants and should be in the same social level than immigrants today.
That's a full on attack worthy of a war to be disrespected like that even though the ancestors build this country from the scratch during slavery.
That's why it is important to make it known now what the black American identity truly is.
Immigrants can NEVER compare themselves to black Americans. Not even the white immigrants.
There is only one truly American people left. That is black Americans.
Bad enough I gotta work to make the white man money, but now I gotta look "presentable" and act a certain way so as not to come off as "intimidating" to the white people in the office too?
Yeah y'all can keep that, I'll stay remote lol
Very interesting.
My asian friend asked me if its ok for non-black people to say the n word lol
Nope. We should go back to punch them and send them to a hospital.
I really enjoy this interview. Just a timeless and much needed discussion between generations. I appreciate Judge Joe Brown for reasons that he's willing to speak on younger platforms and vice versa. We need to continue what our elders have built upon.
!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQR_1EA5kHE&t=915sVery interesting. Wayne Brady would be a good hist for a show like this.

My guess is S doesn't want to create division on the forum. I get it but it's hard to fully agree with it because again...it's so many other weird ass sxns on KTT.
My rebuttal for the "It'll create division" take is simply the same reasons why LGBTQ+ wanted and have gotten their own private sxn are pretty much similar reasons why we want our own private sxn.
The LGBTQ+ sxn/thread started off being public, but then quickly went private when it began to get renegaded by homophobes/transphobes. Maybe S and them are just waiting to see if the Black Empowerment Thread ever gets raided before considering a private sxn?
And this is just a website.
But it's really symbolic how the LGBT community gets special treatment before black people when all they use black people to legitimize their own movements and never contributed to this country the way black people did.
They're one of our worst enemies as black people and we need to be very careful and watch how that community operates.
It's a difficult case to make because end of the day a lot of the mods will just say "Use the Black empowerment thread" as a catch all but I just feel like that's really limiting to discussions that can be had.
S*** we can have whole discussion threads about Black gardening, cooking, art, politics/politicians, skating, photography/videography, fashion, and hair. I know those last two exist in the fashion sxn but to me it's just always been weird seeing a thread titled "Black people hairstyles" in the fashion sxn even though I know that thread mostly consists of Black users
But that's just my point there are a lot of aspects to Blackness and culture across the diaspora that it seems unfair to jam all of that within this single thread.
We need to make our own website.
