I am incredibly appreciative of the vast amount of knowledge that you have generously shared in this video, and a simple expression of gratitude does not convey the depth of my appreciation. I reconnected with my childhood friend who has been incarcerated for 25 years about eighteen months ago To my surprise, I was astounded by the remarkable growth and wisdom he has acquired during his time incarcerated. Although his voice remained familiar, his thoughts have evolved and matured with the passage of time. Witnessing his personal development sparked a profound inspiration within me, leading me to take on the responsibility of assisting him in preparing for his upcoming parole hearing. This journey has proven to be both arduous and enlightening, information is very limited. Thank you again this video has provided me with a renewed sense of hope and encouragement.

It's common to see a sister with 5 kids and 5 fathers. I recently met a brother who just got out of jail, nice guy, out on parole, of a 15 yr sentence. For some reason we were talking kids. I asked him how many he had and he said 17 yr old, cool, where she at, no man, I've got 17 kids. WHF, he's 52, been inside for 13 years, so when he was 39, he already had 17 kids from 7 different women. The point here is Thomas didn't rape that slave girl, the slave girl rape Thomas. A breeze blows by and the slave girl is in heat and there was no stopping her. I've had my run-ins with a few sisters and it's true, they are as advertised. So ease up on the rape charges clown, you weren't there which makes you a lying, race hustling pimp.

Slave rapist, only a black fool could call a common relationship in that manner. I guess all brothers that had sex were rapist. Thomas Jefferson never bought a slave as he was abhorrent to slavery. But that make no difference to the mind of an ignorant black man. Read the first draft of the constitution. What does it say historian? He curse King George for pushing slavery on the 13 colonies, he condemn the institution of slavery, for thou not know what to do for the black man. Thomas now held the burden of the slaves past down to him. He was responsible for their well being and did not release them because he felt this would not be beneficial to them. He and other were working to find land for themselves so they could prosper as a notion. The mere fact that you dishonor him because of a relationship with a slave, which was common place, reveals you have no interest in history but are only interested in putting your personal spin on it, thus making a mockery of it.

So they've done all of these things in America that were just for us, things that did damage to our families, did damaged our freedom, set us back economically -- well, didn't set us back economically because we never got on an economic footing in the first place, because of all of these policies, government policies written into law. So it's not like they could even pretend these things didn't happen -- and they were just for Black people." These are outrageous crimes that must be redressed.

Harriot addressed the obvious contradictions in the use of the acronym ADOS, but he did not address the most fundamental one, which is, to loosely use the word descendant in this informal usage. It does not point to a person's family bloodline, which is indicated by a surname. This casual usage of descendant does not do what the creators of it says it is intended to do. It does not distinguish those who are due reparations from the U.S. government from those who are not. To say Slaves would have done a relatively better job, but that is still problematic, as Harriot has pointed out. I have from the beginning been pointing this out on social media. When taken literally White people are also descendants of "slavery", because it takes a person who is enslaved as well as a person who enslaves another. It begs the question why would someone jump over using the word slave to settle on slavery? I have said the government is hardly going to pay anyone they are not legally or morally obligated to. It will be difficult enough to get them at all. Some legal term like plaintiff will be the word used to denote who is to receive reparations. It will be spelled out in many sentences exactly what the qualifications are to get them. This seems a case of making a fuss/fight where there is obviously none. Critical thinking must always be used in everything a person does. Black people especially, must do this. We must go beyond the normal considerations of most people/groups. That is what the two people who laid the foundation of the original CRT, (Mr. Neeley Fuller Jr. and the late Dr. Francis Cress Welshing) and who made the terms 'White supremacy', (which really is 'White hegemony') and 'systemic racism' household words among us, advocated we do in face of the forces of racism in all its forms working against us. They simply said we must compensate for what is working against us. We always have done this but have for a long time now not done nearly as much as is required of us. The saying we have to be twice as good to get ahead was known by most of us. We understood it was unfair, but it was our reality and we responded better to it in the past. Today among woke activists, it seems to ask anything like personal responsibility and initiative is to ask too much. They have the attitude that to do so is to blame the victim. They have the mindset that it is more productive to make demands from the government and racist, without the necessary power to make it/them do anything. They demand other people be not just not-racist, but to be more proactive for our benefit, than we expect and ask of ourselves and each other. They complain of people being anti-Black, but don't see Black on Black crime/violence as being anti-Black. They ignore common sense and use stupid terms/phrases like BLM and 'Defund and Abolish the police', when it is obvious how the opposition will weaponize them for their advantage. I'll give one more glaring example of us not applying critical thinking. The Afrocentric argument that the word Kemet translates to mean "Land of the Blacks" and not "The Black Land" as White scholars have concluded, raises a basic question. Why would they call their country 'The Black Land", when it is said by Black scholars that all the other people around them were also Black? It suggests that some non-Black people called them that and they may have started calling their country that, at some later time. That would put non-Back people in the area at a very earlier period, which would support the Eurocentric claim of the people who brought about that civilization were White or non-Black. Then there are comments said by many Afrocentric people like “the Greeks learned everything they knew from Kemet”. This is stupid. They obviously were smart enough to make use of what they learned, if that was the case. These kinds of claims don't hold up under honest scrutiny. The statement that “we built this country” is another that has little value. There is the labor that builds something and there is the idea that conceived it, and the blueprint that lays out its design. Do we really want to claim the idea that became this country and the history that goes along with that? We did a lot of the labor that produced goods and services and wealth and of course we conceived and designed many things as well, but it begs the question what have we conceived, designed, and built lately for ourselves? These are logical questions. Do they come out of a way of thinking that is Black or White? Do the questions about how much our lives matter and to whom do they matter come out of a Black or White way of thinking? If genes can pass down through trauma, what should we expect genes to do regarding their normal function? We have not been real with ourselves let alone be awakened with some greater insight. Talk of revolutions is folly. They just bring back around what previously existed. When was the last successful one of those? Talk of a "reset" is also folly. When was a previous state of human existence ever adequate, especially for us? What is needed is the evolution of humanity. Humanity is due reparations for the historic inhumanity we have inflicted on each other. A global fair/just economic order would be reparations to the world. We also would do well to give ourselves a 'peace dividend'. The best way to defund anything is to make it largely unneeded. We cannot not escape each other. We all exist in a state of interconnection and varying degrees of interdependence. Global warming and pandemics should convince anyone who did not alright understand and respect this reality. Not doing so only shows immaturity or just plain hatred. Will we ever see an evolution in our discussion of all the problems we have with each other and with the environment we live in?

WP were not subjected to the same slavery as BP. Indentured servitude had an expiration date in the near future while chattel slavery was indefinite. Also WP were also given acres of land and other tools to build a homestead where very few former Blk slaves were not. Those same Indentured wyt servants also got the wyt privilege and their ancestors that BP are still not afforded today. There is no comparison. Imo reparations is simple to dole out. Give it to those who are 25 yrs or older and that can show proof they were born here and any of their grandparents were born on the east coast in the 1800's b4 1880 or earlier. And you have always been checking the Black ⚫️ box. There would be 4 levels of pmts. Age 25-40; 41-64; 65+ and anyone 18-24 would get the smallest amount + this can include immigrants who faced discriminatory in justice from 1940-70's and they check the Black box. If your family decided to pass for wyt not our problem. If there are any outliers. Then they need to take a DnA test showing at 65% African ancestry and born in this country. And governments gave paid slaveholders for the losso of their slaves. No one else gets paid if their industry goes under bcse of changing times.

Individuals add subtract, color has nothibg to do with inteligabnce To be pretty,strong , ha nothing to do with it. We know it takes all colors efferts . To build a community. So why do we have, all black, magority black only neighborhoods. Racism, wheres diversity Hypocrites. You need keep racial, slavery alive. To play poor me,Im black . When more blacks walk off the victim plantation we have more Candace Owens Ben Carson Morgan Freeman Sowell Martin Luther king Jr as roll models. We have more black millionaires then any nation.America egknolweges any colors achievement. In my grade school ,qe had American history. Go to hell any black,being born a free America. Cries African American. You keep hate division alive. These two , note how they feed off each others. Play into prepared questions followed up, with prepared answers. How much money. Do they ask you send. So they cqn play fake reporters .
And that's a damn shame we have to stay alert and aware of the bs at all times that's life
It does not matter how you talk about racism most white folks don't want to hear the truth they want to keep this fake front up that they are so great or that their history is so great
Dude you are more humorous than aggressive it don't matter how you speak about racism most white folks I have a
Most intelligent black people don't care one way or the other because it's always in our face so so what
Please explain the details of your comment with examples?
Ain't no dismantling it it's in the soil that's the way it is you almost have to ignore it and seek people who are regular people that's about it what's funny is watching a racist that wants people to think their not racist
Say it man white folks don't hate me because I know the TRUTH
They owned people that built this country
Harriot addressed the obvious contradictions in the use of the acronym ADOS, but he did not address the most fundamental one, which is, to loosely use the word descendant in this informal usage. It does not point to a person's family bloodline, which is indicated by a surname. This casual usage of descendant does not do what the creators of it says it is intended to do. It does not distinguish those who are due reparations from the U.S. government from those who are not. To say Slaves would have done a relatively better job, but that is still problematic, as Harriot has pointed out. I have from the beginning been pointing this out on social media. When taken literally White people are also descendants of "slavery", because it takes a person who is enslaved as well as a person who enslaves another. It begs the question why would someone jump over using the word slave to settle on slavery? I have said the government is hardly going to pay anyone they are not legally or morally obligated to. It will be difficult enough to get them at all. Some legal term like plaintiff will be the word used to denote who is to receive reparations. It will be spelled out in many sentences exactly what the qualifications are to get them. This seems a case of making a fuss/fight where there is obviously none. Critical thinking must always be used in everything a person does. Black people especially, must do this. We must go beyond the normal considerations of most people/groups. That is what the two people who laid the foundation of the original CRT, (Mr. Neeley Fuller Jr. and the late Dr. Francis Cress Welshing) and who made the terms 'White supremacy', (which really is 'White hegemony') and 'systemic racism' household words among us, advocated we do in face of the forces of racism in all its forms working against us. They simply said we must compensate for what is working against us. We always have done this but have for a long time now not done nearly as much as is required of us. The saying we have to be twice as good to get ahead was known by most of us. We understood it was unfair, but it was our reality and we responded better to it in the past. Today among woke activists, it seems to ask anything like personal responsibility and initiative is to ask too much. They have the attitude that to do so is to blame the victim. They have the mindset that it is more productive to make demands from the government and racist, without the necessary power to make it/them do anything. They demand other people be not just not-racist, but to be more proactive for our benefit, than we expect and ask of ourselves and each other. They complain of people being anti-Black, but don't see Black on Black crime/violence as being anti-Black. They ignore common sense and use stupid terms/phrases like BLM and 'Defund and Abolish the police', when it is obvious how the opposition will weaponize them for their advantage. I'll give one more glaring example of us not applying critical thinking. The Afrocentric argument that the word Kemet translates to mean "Land of the Blacks" and not "The Black Land" as White scholars have concluded, raises a basic question. Why would they call their country 'The Black Land", when it is said by Black scholars that all the other people around them were also Black? It suggests that some non-Black people called them that and they may have started calling their country that, at some later time. That would put non-Back people in the area at a very earlier period, which would support the Eurocentric claim of the people who brought about that civilization were White or non-Black. Then there are comments said by many Afrocentric people like “the Greeks learned everything they knew from Kemet”. This is stupid. They obviously were smart enough to make use of what they learned, if that was the case. These kinds of claims don't hold up under honest scrutiny. The statement that “we built this country” is another that has little value. There is the labor that builds something and there is the idea that conceived it, and the blueprint that lays out its design. Do we really want to claim the idea that became this country and the history that goes along with that? We did a lot of the labor that produced goods and services and wealth and of course we conceived and designed many things as well, but it begs the question what have we conceived, designed, and built lately for ourselves? These are logical questions. Do they come out of a way of thinking that is Black or White? Do the questions about how much our lives matter and to whom do they matter come out of a Black or White way of thinking? If genes can pass down through trauma, what should we expect genes to do regarding their normal function? We have not been real with ourselves let alone be awakened with some greater insight. Talk of revolutions is folly. They just bring back around what previously existed. When was the last successful one of those? Talk of a "reset" is also folly. When was a previous state of human existence ever adequate, especially for us? What is needed is the evolution of humanity. Humanity is due reparations for the historic inhumanity we have inflicted on each other. A global fair/just economic order would be reparations to the world. We also would do well to give ourselves a 'peace dividend'. The best way to defund anything is to make it largely unneeded. We cannot not escape each other. We all exist in a state of interconnection and varying degrees of interdependence. Global warming and pandemics should convince anyone who did not alright understand and respect this reality. Not doing so only shows immaturity or just plain hatred. Will we ever see an evolution in our discussion of all the problems we have with each other and with the environment we live in?
*Word to the wise:* _Less is more_ ! A youtube comment section is no place for an essay about your _personal take_ on the current state of black folks. You want to write a PhD thesis? Go back to University, where people get PAID to read _excrutiating_ lengthy personal opinions. To paraphrase a popular meme: *ain't nobody got time for this!!!*
WP were not subjected to the same slavery as BP. Indentured servitude had an expiration date in the near future while chattel slavery was indefinite. Also WP were also given acres of land and other tools to build a homestead where very few former Blk slaves were not. Those same Indentured wyt servants also got the wyt privilege and their ancestors that BP are still not afforded today. There is no comparison. Imo reparations is simple to dole out. Give it to those who are 25 yrs or older and that can show proof they were born here and any of their grandparents were born on the east coast in the 1800's b4 1880 or earlier. And you have always been checking the Black ⚫️ box. There would be 4 levels of pmts. Age 25-40; 41-64; 65+ and anyone 18-24 would get the smallest amount + this can include immigrants who faced discriminatory in justice from 1940-70's and they check the Black box. If your family decided to pass for wyt not our problem. If there are any outliers. Then they need to take a DnA test showing at 65% African ancestry and born in this country. And governments gave paid slaveholders for the losso of their slaves. No one else gets paid if their industry goes under bcse of changing times.
@@TWLogik Black folks aren't getting reparations until we're SMART enough and weathy enough to TAKE IT. Forget about pleading, begging , crying and threatening to withhold "votes" (that can easily be STOLEN). We best prepare our children to compete in fields outside of sports and entertainment.
Thank you for sharing your splendidly shortened summary of thoroughly thought out and thought-provoking connection of details and facts that seek the truth. You have included some interesting considrrations that fit well into the interview. It is commendable that you have introduced a few questions that link to the initial statements related to demonstrate and hopefully stimulate robust critical thinking, designed to resolve problems through critical dialogue, that leads to critical actions designed to produce justice, so that folks can get down with the real business of the Human Imperative, through Human endeavor and Human progress.
@stephencarter744 On the contrary, it is only the patient who take time and invest in the to examine and analyze whether the content is of value and contextualize the extent of the value of the comment. Serious comments about serious topics sometimes require more than a phrase or a protest that neglects examination and analysis of the content. Please share something of similar significance about the presentation and/comment?
Say it
Ultimately it is what it is you can't sugar coat it man
Why are our people soooo stubborn? Have we not noticed that, to a person, those who ultimately lift us are very learned and educated? And not always in a traditional way. It does not matter; black folks are no longer looking for salvation from white supremacy. We are done for now…the cargo-culture trinkets have driven us insane.
Amazing! Selective "memory" vs selective use of facts - uncovered, helps me understand why these folks are so mad, & protective of this selective narrative they've spun...
History is only useful if you learn from it. History is important, but making new positive history is more important. History cannot be re-written. A diffirent perspective of it is what can be done and what has always been done to some degree. Again what makes it useful is in the hands of those who apply it to their lives.
You rewrite history by telling the truth.our history is so full of dark deceptions and untruths,the truth is the only way to make it right,even the Bible there's so many discrepancies and contradictions add ons take aways,and the father creator knew this was going to happen,he states anyone who adds or take away from these pages,will have to contend with him,but the devil don't care he gonna do what he and they do,for there advantage,but you see that's why you must do your own research and diligence,the truth of all things is the only thing that will make us free from this bondage of darkness peace to all.
True! but counteracting negative history is even better.
Thank you for sharing these details. The advice to do one's own research is relevant to critical thinking initially mentioned in the interview.
THE WHITE PEOPLE KIDS GOT THE ASSETS OUR ANCESTORS WORKED FOR...
Michael, Sheryl, I suggest you free yourselves from thinking about how white people perceive you. Let that be their burden, not yours.
Please explain the details of your comment with examples?
@@komiczar in short, how you see/perceive yourself is what matters most, if you feel good about yourself and your image, you're good to go. It is easier to control your thoughts, than other peoples' thoughts.
@reemdawg5980 Thank you very much for elaborating with detailed clarity of the path to emotional maturity that accepts adult responsibility to attain self-mastery.
According to Ron Desatan Africans learned skills during slavery.
Read the Bible, the history of America is in those pages. The stories will fly out of that book and hit you in the face! That’s human history you will recognize.
Dr. Kimberly Richman thank you for your work! How can we change the system to reflect the findings of your study?
Call it like it is.
It is what it is! Let's not dress it up! The fact is there is enough to share for everyone! Those who do not want to share are very selfish. PERIOD!
