Quotables & Excerpts:Khadija -Muslim Bushido
""All Colored People That Want to Go to Kansas, On 9/5/1877, Can Do So for $5.00," Part 1"
"...We don't have the same values. For me, negative, dishonorable activities don't have to escalate to the level of constituting crimes before I take issue with them."
Khadija Again - On "What About Our Daughters"
"We Ignore These Small Insults To Our Peril"
"...This is the same mistake that Blacks collectively made regarding hip-hop. I was a teenager at the beginning of the hip-hop mess. I heard these same arguments for why we shouldn’t mobilize to stop [fill in the blank rapper]. And how INSTEAD of stopping [fill in the blank rapper], we should create “positive” hip-hop. It does NOT work like that. If you don’t REMOVE the weeds, they will eventually crowd out and replace whatever flowers you plant.
Unopposed negativity will take center stage and pave the way for even worse forms of negativity. This has been our experience with hip-hop.
This is because unopposed aggression ALWAYS escalates and expands its range. These self-hating and BW-hating entertainment products are acts of aggression.
If Blacks had stopped some of these earlier rappers, we wouldn’t be dealing with the filth that we’re dealing with right now."
On The 'Keeping It Real' Scapegoat Used To Defend Works Such As Tyler Perry, Gangsta Rap & Other Garbage...

***ATTENTION!!! CW Asks For A Favor****PLEASE if at all possible, refrain from debating with factions on other sites (Topix, YouTube, BV, BP, etc)...This gets us nowhere and distracts from our purpose which is living the best life possible...Some BW are bogged down by frequently arguing with folks who are irrelevant...Do not expend ANYMORE energy into this...Cease trying to convince anyone to see the situation in a different light...Either these people (Black, White, or otherwise) get it or they DON'T!...The parties who want to keep Black women on a hamster wheel often try to taunt us into "debate" in order to preoccupy...If you're on a messageboard debating then you're not:
1. Going out and meeting people
2. Dating
3. Travelling
4. Learning new things
5.Connecting with a loved one
6.Watching Paint Dry...Even doing that would be more productive because that means you worked on a project...Something was painted
7.(Fill In The Blank)
Time to move on...
This forum encourages discussion, critical thinking and feedback....However I WILL NOT tolerate predator/criminal protectionism...Those who engage in this will soon find this out...I participate fully with law enforcement regarding any suspicious activity, clear???
A Message To Black Women:
This is a time where enough is enough and we must act. Despite our differences in opinion on dating and messageboard posts, there is a situation staring Black women dead in the face. Love me, hate me, cuss me out and call me names...Just demand better for Black women. Add me to your blogroll, remove me, or ban me...Just stand up for Black women. The crimes committed against us are often glossed over in favor of fighting perceived injustices against Black men who are overwhelmingly found to be the perpetrators. Rev. Al & Jesse (AKA "Big Perm" & "Big Illegitimate Daddy")would rather march for the BM of "Jena 6", or cry about how a BM teen received too much prison time (Google Geranalow Wilson) for indecent acts. These phony sychophants of the "Black Community Machine" will never stand up for Black women who are the constant victims of damaged Black men. Consider the numerous BW who have become victims that we can name off the top of our heads. And believe me this list isn't all inclusive...All within less than a year:
Ms Esmin Green, who was left to die on a hospital floor. People from her family, church, etc came out of the woodwork only AFTER she died. IMO...True fashion of those who did not do right by her in the first place...Now these parties want to go on the news and prostrate themselves on Ms Green's coffin...Where were they while she was alive?...It was obvious she needed help...More than likely she was just another 'mule' fitting under the 'Strong Black Woman' profile...Again, not to mention Jesse or Al...WHERE WERE THEY???Sisters, we MUST reject being a burden bearer and only deal with those who reciprocate...

There are no marches, committees nor protests for these atrocities committed against Black women. When will we cease giving endless support to a false community which openly (with misogynist music), or with silence, endorse cruelty against us?
We cannot go on pretending the so called Black "leadership"
has our best interests at heart. The rare occasions "Black leadership" has shown their face for BW is where there is a possibility of playing the racecard. Black women must cease and desist any support of
these organizations and their figureheads...

He told the truth. However, this needs to be said by more black men. A few black men have stepped forward like Bill Cosby and Barack, but their public voices are still small in numbers. These men still get harangued by other black men for telling the truth.
The speech was fantastic and of course quite a few black men were very upset. I like the bit when he said that bm say ‘at least I got a job, or I’m not in jail’ he said that it is nothing big about that. So true!
Felicity:
I couldn’t agree more…We as a group need to shake off that ‘low expectation having’ attitude…
I love that Barack said this. I just wish more blk women would value themselves more and require their partner to wear a condom. No wedding ring=/no flesh to flesh.
I am estatic that he said this. The other night at dinner a friend of mine who was a refugee from Iran years ago said she was happy about what Obama said too.
