    ..... "Hitler had a mother, and father at home. Look how he turned out." -Dick Gregory. .....Now that was deep. What a awesome man.

      @stop eating animals..... He's a great man? Nah, not so much. He tried to build up pride in his people, but he went about it ALL WRONG. I have never killed anyone, or done anything evil to anyone, I'm a great man. Anybody can take a life, that's not impressive to me, especially if it's for unjust reasons. I'm impressed by one, who can create and, or save life. Anyone can destroy, but it takes a special kind of person to build, and create.

Personally I love a black woman whether she has dark skin, light skin, a afro, silky curly hair, a taper, or even if she shaves her head bald. Whatever she does, she just gotta make it look pretty.

    To have risen to the mountain top, in terms of achievement of material wealth and fame, yet instead of taking the money and running, he chooses to place himself squarely in harm’s way by using his platform to actually work towards the betterment of his people, while speaking truths and perspectives which are controversial and outside of the promoted narrative, relayed with unflinching conviction and raw honesty, is simply awe-inspiring to me! That this man chose to thrust himself headlong onto the frontlines of the battle in the ongoing struggle against racial inequality, injustice and systemic oppression against people of melanin heritage in this country and all over the world, honestly, floors me! The highest, most profound gratitude and honor upon this immensely brilliant and courageous individual for his enduring legacy, tireless works, sacrifices and for having dedicated his life to fighting in the trenches to help in the awakening and uplifting of a race of people who, for whatever reasons, are embroiled in a perpetual struggle to regain the full spectrum and recognition of their humanity, while practically an entire planet, as it often seems, has endeavored to oppose this!(?)
