If there is such a system then that system has failed. There are many successful black folks today
The system is on cruise control. It no longer needs a gatekeeper. So you dont see a racist individual. Everyone is considered to be equal. When in fact credit scores and assets discriminate now. Both of which are people lack due to the dysfunctionality that are past oppression caused.
Their generation could be borderline younger millennials/elder gen z! 🤔
Christian churches have been depending so much on lonely women (particularly unmarried women) for many decades. All that tithe money has to come from somewhere. 😂
The Church needs scholarship. People are starting to figure out that serpents do not talk and women do not come from the rib of any man. Its not history. Its mythology
Right! I’ve heard many people try to use the excuse that the insane scenarios in the Bible are metaphors. Anyone who reads the Bible and comes to the conclusion that it’s real is either brainwashed or in serious denial.
Exactly.
@@UA-camUzername Exactly. That is why the introduction to Christianity works best with babies and slaves. Its very difficult to convince a healthy adult that there was a talking donkey
"The kingdom is inside of you" may be a reason for women leaving. As they're awakening at a higher rate..
Interesting perspective. 🤔
Exactly. How many years will Women allow a silly story of a talking serpent usurp their divinity. Nature shows us that life comes through the womb of a Woman but the myths of man strip Women of that divine process. We should never allow the myths of man to have authority over divine order.
Thanks ❤❤
Is this information coming from secular articles? There is a difference between casual religion and a relationship with God, so people may be leaving because do want to do what they want to do verses abeying God. I wonder if these people are saved or just religious! People want to fulfill the desires of the flesh more!
People from all walks are leaving the church for various reasons. One of the biggest reasons why people are leaving the church is because we so much information available. This newly available information exposes how much of the bible is mythology. I left the faith and im still a faithful husband and active father. Same values. i just dont subscribe to the myths
Church Offering.
Thanks!

She had a hard time saying the men is the head of the household. I dont know why i subscribed to this channel
Praise the Lord ladies! Keep doing what you’re doing in the Lord’s sight!
Bless their deceived and corrupt minds.
No the do say it is a system but it isn't the system you're thinking of, according to you it's the government according to them it's what media feed black men. They never make the claim that it's inherent to black men because the counter examples they give is Nigerians making more money than the avarage white person and coming here with more barriers than a black man born here and thriving so it isn't the government because that government would apply the same pressures on both the black man born here and the black man that moves here, the only difference is the culture that they come from.
People gravitate towards what feels familiar, so dysfunctional families will create children with insecurities who grow to attempt to fill those voids with exciting yet irresponsible relationship behaviors when they're older. Ultimately, it's the reproductive system. Impulse control. For African diasporans, we are generally more in tune with our passions. Our tempers can be shorter, and we love more intensely. Be moderate and have self-control. Canadian Kiana Docherty has very good videos on self-discipline and willpower for anyone who wants an example of structure towards developing those character traits.
Cultural influences also affect how a group acts. If you compare black 1st generation families from Nigeria vs American born blacks, the former has higher father rates. Your community, religious, and culture influences the choices young people make.
If black men can not live in the same home then they need to peacefully co parent with their children's mother. It's easier said than done tho and this goes for all races.
Isn’t it crazy black women who don’t need a man? Difficult to have a relationship if the girl doesn’t want the man there
It still a system !!! The system is telling us black women the we are strong black women and we don't need a man.. it is the system!!
.
When African Americans were once a community before integration. Integration destroyed the African American community.
How many billions have been paid out to settle discrimination suits in corporate America in the last 20 years? Too many and not enough!!!!!!
Then what do we do
The symptoms need to be changed.. But they are making money off US if the symptoms wasn't making money off us they would have changed..
In my humble opinion Malcolm X Shabazz is the greatest man born on American soil !
Honest question. Why the attire?
Our clothing signifies our connection and identification with our leaders and each other. We believe that it aids in the display of our consecration to live according to our understanding of God's Word and the unity it will most assuredly produce. It is our personal conviction to dress this way...but we do think it looks great😄. See also our video "You Wear THAT in the Summer" ua-cam.com/video/yx0gIVgbmVs/v-deo.htmlsi=ORLEa3_VI8gL8gJ2
Understood. Thanks!
As a married woman of 15yrs. With 6 beautiful children and also holding multiple degrees. Openly speaking on this will have a lot of backlash.. I have racially mixed children, this is a tight line to walk. Unfortunately, many will not see your view. I definitely do see it.
The first thing you should see in someone is how they behave, if they are respectful and kind. Everything else is secondary to behavior. Seeing skin is judgement on race first, and that will always be racist.
"It doesn't work in America" if y'all keep perpetuating it by submitting to it
Feels like the word "systemic" is being misused for "toxic culture".
Amen
Finding an imaginary friend doesn’t give the ability to understand right and wrong. This is how and why our country is where it is. Literal insanity. The Christian nationalists about to take power will show you no quarter.
If our community could sit down for an old fashioned picnic and hear this "ah ha" moment, our tomorrow could, would be completely different. Lord, help us before we completely destroy one another
Back stabbing and jealousy is big in the culture and we need to do some reconciliation among ourselves. Take the gender issue out for now all black people are targeted.😮
Good one girls
I truly love your content!!! Nice to see clothed women without exploiting themselves. Keep doing what you do
🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ Praise the lord, such wonderful podcast. Thank you, many Kingdom children are ready to hit the ground running.
🤍🕊 Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah.
The ignorance here is freaking amazing. Harris went to a HBCU and is biracial but not black? Obama did not grow up with his black father, mostly raised with white mother and family but he is unquestionably black. WTH? 🤦🏽♂️
When sinned entered the world and man chose darkness over light the the system of this world was determined. Things will get worst until God says so. Men can’t fix what only God can change and that’s the mind, spirit and souls of man.
Love Bro Rob and Bro Devin! They speaking the truth! Thank you for bringing them on the podcast!❤ And I agree y’all are refreshing!
I love people touching my hair, even at random. It’s always people who then say “wow I wish I had hair like yours” I have a 4c Afro and I love the joy it sends to people. I personally experience no problems with white people and my hair
How can one deny that racism exists while simultaneously portraying “reverse racism” as a pervasive, pressing problem? Somehow, the former is disregarded while the latter becomes significant. Right? Wrong! Candace Owens has a vested interest in upholding a system of inequities as long as it spares her and her immediate family. She leans on her personal experiences rather than acknowledging the reality of over 40 million Black Americans who contend daily with a system of privilege and oppression in the United States. She is the exception, not the rule. In Owens’s view, racism is only an issue if individuals are “doing something wrong.” How can this belief possibly hold up without cognitive dissonance? She takes the fallacy further by asserting that any struggles others face are of their own making, rather than systemic racism. What do we call this kind of argument? And how can we critically examine these inequities as truths? It’s easy to sound intelligent when you benefit from others’ ignorance and lack firsthand experience with oppression. I’m sure Candace Owens is personable and successful-though she didn’t start that way. Ironically, it’s that very privilege that now makes her come across as disingenuous. Her defense? She claims those who experience oppression are trying to guilt her for her success. It’s a defensive stance, not a genuine concern for the people she admonishes. Like others with similar views, she champions the myth of merit over justice. Merit is a comforting notion-if you’re wearing rose-colored glasses. But it doesn’t address the very real, collective advantages granted by race and the opportunities afforded by class.
An exploration of individual vs. collective experience and the fallacy of anecdotal evidence. Here’s an explanation of these themes and the relevant argument: 1. Individual vs. Collective Experience: Candace Owens’s stance is positioned as one that prioritizes her individual experience over the collective reality of systemic inequities faced by millions of Black Americans. By framing her success as proof that systemic racism isn’t a pervasive issue, her argument overlooks the lived experiences of others and dismisses broader social patterns. This is often referred to as the exception fallacy-drawing conclusions about a group based on the experience of an individual, or “the exception rather than the rule.” 2. Fallacy of Anecdotal Evidence: Owens’s reliance on her personal experience over data or the reality of others aligns with the anecdotal fallacy. This reasoning mistake assumes that because something happened to one person, it should be universally applicable, ignoring the larger systemic issues. This type of argument can undermine discussions on systemic inequities by downplaying statistical evidence and relying on outliers. 3. The Myth of Meritocracy: The revised text critiques the idea that individual effort (merit) alone is responsible for success, disregarding the influence of race, class, and privilege. This perspective is often called meritocratic fallacy-the belief that success is solely a result of one’s hard work or intelligence, which can obscure the structural barriers others face. Analyzing Such Inequities: To analyze inequities in a way that goes beyond individual experience, one could: • Examine Statistical Data: Look at employment rates, income levels, educational attainment, and health outcomes across racial and socioeconomic groups to reveal systemic patterns. • Use Social Theory: Apply concepts like systemic racism, privilege, and intersectionality to understand how institutional structures impact different communities. • Consider Historical Context: Recognize how historical discrimination and policies continue to affect opportunities today, contributing to a legacy of inequity. Owens’s reliance is on personal experience to make broader claims about race and merit, calling attention to the larger systemic realities she may overlook. We don’t have to be sensitive to others, we just need to be based in facts and logical determinants.
You people are all so degenerate that you have no morals. “Race isn’t real!” What the ____ do you think is real, then? You’re all so eager to virtue signal that none of you stand for anything. Shame on all of you for having no spine, you will agree with whatever is popular. 1000% chance that if this wasn’t a liberal belief then you’d all be against it.
When I see people dressed like that, I presume it’s a very deliberate decision. And that’s more than you can say about most who just follow the crowd without thinking about it. Sometimes I dress provocatively, sometimes I’m extremely covered up, but always it’s a deliberate decision. I dress like I eat, for the results I want.
Its crazy how people especially some in the comments, dont seem to be honest enough to see how hypocritical it is that they for certain people like her they will defend cape and fight for proving blackness. Yet, will not do the same for others especially when those certain people are seen as sell outs and coons even if they darker than you! Candace Owens is a big example to prove that. Also, getting mad at people who claims black but people black people dont wanna accept them like a Drake or a Mariah Carey or the rapper logic even though one of his parents black but he looks white as white can be or even someone like zendaya I seen it. So what do we really consider and say makes someone black? Is it being born by parents or at least a parent or having grandparents that is black? Or is it if you looked black even if you dont have black roots but embrace the community culture and things that are considered black? Like going to a black school like a HBCU or being apart of the NAACP or talking dressing and acting black? Because someone can be as black as Wesley Snipes but talks proper and not with slang and ebonics or lingo. Isn't doing things culturally and doing things considered black? Would someone like that still be considered black if that was the case and dont be disingenuous because for those that know the fresh prince of Bel Air, Carlton was not look at as black but an oreo. My point and problem is people dont keep that same energy for everyone and switch up depending on the person and totality of the situation like with Kamala. But people will get mad at me for pointing that out and not pay attention and take account if she will care about us and do anything for us or even remember black people because to me before becoming VP she didn't seem like she cared and was in our communities. But now she is because she trying to become president and after it happens whether she is president or not will she still be there for and also WITH black people? Will she still be in the black church? Will she give and help black communities? Im just saying cause we need to be worried and concerned about it because all skin folk aint kinfolk right? Just because she says she will do things dont mean she will wants to and not lying! We just need to think about things for the right things not just based on race and not liking someone else or what they tell you to think that you dont make sure is true accurate and not took out of context.
Salute!
