quality1ne: Tariq Nasheed, have you heard of him and listen to his podcasts ?

I hadn’t heard of him before your message but I watched a couple of his videos after reading your question. I think he’s corny. He’s trying to empower men with pimp game? Men need to be players? Thats fuckin stupid. He’s lame and making Black men look bad. Fuck em.

quality1ne: Why are alot of Black Women are so quick to acknowledge that they are of Native-American ancestry more times, than they were to speak of their obvious African roots ?

Black people, not just black women, have been taught by whites to be ashamed of their Africaness. When whites brought black people here they had to figure out how to control them. They were told that their complexion and hair was ugly and inferior. They were told they were stupid. Reading was forbidden. Long story short, they were lied to and told they were inferior because they were Black.

Blacks and Native Americans did much intermingling. History books don’t acknowledge the rapport between Black people and the Native people. A lot of African Americans have Native relatives. But if a Black person has Native ancestry or some other ethnic influence and you’ve been taught that you’re inferior because you’re African, then which ancestry do you think will end up being more special to that person?

sunsetchasingsunsets: Hi. Just wanted to let you know that I dig your work. I'm sure you get that a lot, but I had to hit you up to let you know. Sometimes the storytelling gets lost in the technical details. But your stuff is so full of life. Very spirited. Your shit's dope. That is all.

Thank you very much!
