    Amy Goodman is the best reader. She's clear and easy to understand.

      @@Seekthetruth3000 You can either live a happy life minding your own business or waste a life time being negative and only looking for the negativity in others. I'm sure you aren't 💯% a perfect person either but I would rather deal with My Goodman than you who's given me an impression that you are a troubled individual who hates other people's success opinions.

    This brother did an excellent job. This predatory racist system is well aware of what is needed that is why it is withheld.

      No he did not. He totally missed the crucial role that a father plays in a healthy family.

      @@Seekthetruth3000 It sounds like you might have some daddy issues.
      Simply having a dad present in your life does not equal success as an outcome.
      Having a dad around does not mean that you are a better person than the people who don't.
      I know plenty of people, 99% of them being white, who have their dads around and are also garbage-humans.
      I don't believe that anyone can ever be perfect.
      My dad has been in my life since I was born, and I am not perfect.
      My dad is, in many ways, imperfect, just as you and your dad are imperfect.
      My dad is, in many ways, a piece of shit. In some ways, I grew up to mirror my dad's shitty ways.
      But I realized what a piece of shit my dad is, and I repelled his shitty ways. I struggled to become a more compassionate, more kind, and more caring man than my dad is, or ever was.
      I still aspire to be an even better man tomorrow than I was today. My dad thinks he is as good as he needs to be.
      Since no one can ever be perfect, I think we can all continuously self-improve.
      I want to be a better man. My dad doesn't.
      Judging by your narrow-sighted point of view, I would venture to make the following guess.
      Either your dad wasn't around -- and that is what compels the daddy-issues which are semi-apparent in your demeanor -- or your dad was around but he was also a garbage-human piece of shit, which is more apparent in your demeanor.
      Whether your dad was around or not, it is obvious that he failed you in various ways.
      It appears as though you need some sort of healing or deliverance.
      I pray that the Heavenly Father grants you that healing and deliverance, along with a greater attitude of sympathy, empathy, and consideration for others who are less fortunate than you.
      But you'll have to submit to Him first. You'll have to admit to your imperfections and weaknesses, and then ask Him for that healing and deliverance.

    Is it true that by US law, prisoners become slaves of the State because they were NOT included as free men and women when they ended slavery? This fact alone could explain mass incarceration as a covert way to perpetuate slavery in the USA

    As usual, the solutions to these problems like his mom, my mom, Chicago, etc. is not quantum physics. The people are there to do the work, the resources aren’t. In urban centers, we can definitely lay this at Democrats feet

    If we have no police then each individual will be responsible for his or her protection. We are concerned about Blacks being killed by trained cops. What will happen when untrained people have to make the choice to shoot or not shoot a person they see as a threat?

    Jail didn’t take his Mom. His Mom made poor choices for her life, which led to her doing illegal things, which led to her being arrested and incarcerated.
