It is very difficult to view this way. Doesn’t keep your attention like when you upload it vertically.
The vertical/horizontal issues are stressing me out🤣🤣
Hello Mister Nobody here your tiktok friend. Glad to be able to help support your content here on this platform as well. It's interesting to hear your perspective on local history in your part of the country seems to be exactly like mine here on the West coast
Hello Mister Nobody!!!! Thanks for joining me here on youtube😁🥰It's a struggle in the beginning of this youtube journey😩😆
Thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy, we should never let other's tell our story. Anymore than they let us tell theirs.
Yes I agree 💯Thank you 🙌
This was part of the reason "separate but equal" was not working for black people before the Civil Rights Act. I spent part of my childhood in a subdivision that had been set up in 1960 (before the Civil Rights Act) to be a middle-class black subdivision. That eventually took state action to overcome the objections of the city, but when it happened anyway, the city put a low-income housing project on the north side, an airport on the west side, a prison on the east side, and a freeway across the south side. White people never had any intention of black people being separate but _equal._ Being equal made us targets and being separate just made us _easy_ targets. Segregation doesn't work for you unless you also control the politics and economics of the larger socio-political sphere.
Yes it is a shame what they did to The Projects in all the cities. I heard on one video, that Projects used to be well maintained and have maintenance people that lived on site. Now they have become run-down "pre" prison holding cells. Very sad.
They did the same thing in Saint Louis used to go to build a highway.
Thank you
Black Americans have been exploited by privileged democrats for ever! They need solutions! Not more promises!
I hate that CZcams made the volume on this so ridiculously low!! Great job on your part, though. It is a tragedy that government sees fit to demolish these areas for their 'progress'.
Sorry about the volume problem! 😬I am still learning how to post😂Thank you
@@motherboomer not to worry! Everything else more than made up for that one bit! Something that might warm your heart; in my home town there are sections of housing and business that are identified by official plaques as part of the historical African American community. Some years back there was a shotgun home - long abandoned - that was in danger of being demolished because it was falling into disrepair. Our historical society approached the city with a compromise; allow them to relocate the home to the ‘village’. There was some back and forth, but eventually the home found a new resting spot along with other landmark historical homes from the city and surrounding area, and was restored to its original state so that it can enjoy its new life as part of the Living History of our town.
My neighborhood was demolished to build I71 thru Cleveland Ohio.
NPR acts like it only happened in Akron🥵
Oh no! 😞😞I am sorry to hear that. The list of demolished black communities seems endless. Each day someone tells me of another one.
@@motherboomer I grew up on the lower West Side. It also took many of the members of the parish I belonged to. It was very sad.
Those neighborhoods look beautiful. I don't understand what's wrong with this area, it looks really nice.
This is the campus of Yale University. Nice campus!
WTH. A pure MAYOR CREEP😮

Hi there, how’s it going great content
Thank you Lionness!☺
The way I related to this whole video in my soul and I got about 20+ years to go! Live your best life ASAP! 🫶🏾
😁LOL - Well you have time to make a good exit plan! Thanks 🥰
The way you came full circle at the end of this 👏🏾👏🏾 great video! Not just an opinion though… full of facts! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you Michelle!🥰🤗
ME AND MY SISTERS LOOKED DIFFERENT. THE ONE CLOSEST TO MY COMPLEXION PEOPLE WILL SAY WE LOOK JUST ALIKE. BUT, OUR FEATURES ARE VERY DIFFERENT. MY YOUNGEST SISTER WAS MUCH LIGHTER AND ALL HAVE DIFFERENT TEXTURES OF HAIR. AGAIN, WE SHARE THE SAME PARENTS.
ACTUALLY, WE ARE FULL SISTERS. BUT, OUR DNA IS SIMILAR. BUT, IT'S FUNNY HOW SOME OF OUR DNA MATCHES DIFFER WITH OUR RELATIVES. I WILL HAVE MATCHES THAT WON'T APPEAR ON MY SISTER'S MATCHES AND VICE VERSA. FASCINATING!!!
The Asian is from the other slave trade that proceeded the Transatlantic slave trade. Black people have been in bondage for longer than they know. I have a similar result from 23 and me.
What - I didn't even know about that. I will have to look into that. 🤔Thanks!
I’ll be 62 in January and cannot wait. Im definitely retiring as soon as I can. I was going to wait until FRA, but it’s not worth it. I’m in the most micro-managed job ever. Every minute of my day has to be accounted for, even in this remote position. I’m counting down. I have a side hustle planned, and looking forward to that. Love these videos!!
Congratulations on your upcoming retirement! Your stress level will be totally changed. I am happy for you!
Sad. It signifies that there was a lot of rape happening against the women in the deep south. Painful.
Nigerian like most blacks in the Americas.
I guessed African, Irish. East Asian, Native American.😊 Close
Very close! 🤩
I’m 53 and agree with everything you said.
🥰Thank you!
I WAS NOT SURPRISED BY THE RESULTS OF MY DNA. ME AND MY SISTERS HAVE THE SAME BIOLOGICAL PARENTS AND WE ARE SO DIFFERENT.
Do yall look alike? Do yall have different DNA results?
DNA 🧬 testing can give you surprise's that makes you say,"WHAT?????😂"!!!
Yes!! Because my family told me we have Native American ancestors and my DNA listed ZERO Native American LOL
@@motherboomer That doesn't mean there wasn't any Native American in your family. A lot of people do these test expecting to find Native DNA but a good amount don't find any. But when they trace their family tree they will so often find a great, great, great, great grandmother that was half or even full native and by the time it trickles down to you it's too small to show up. So you could have Native American Ancestry in your family tree just farther back then you realized.
Love your content and analysis
Thank you! 🥰
They didn’t even try to do anything nice for Whoopi G, that was not a good picture they didn’t give any thought or effort into that photo shoot. Sad!
It's almost like they didn't see her as being a woman!
I gotta disagree, they knew exactly what they were doing with her & she was all for it. That debacle with Ted Danson & her cooning on "The View" proves it. She's in the sunken place.
Its conditioning, just like the movies and television shows they make. Elevate, themselves and disgrace blacks, so that they get treated less than.😮I never really noticed.
True!
Watermelon is the healthiest fruit you can eat. Watermelon is medicine.
That's why I never understood why eating watermelon was supposed to be a "black" thing. Doesn't everybody like watermelon?
Basically what a Mahrim/Mahram is 😂 In islam, potential spouses can meet only if the woman has someone with her, and it must be a male relative like her father, brother or uncle i.e someone that can't marry her. No physical contact is allowed of course, and the Mahrim (the woman's male relative) must be in the room and present for the couple to talk and discuss marriage. Islam taught this 1400 years ago, and it was used in the 1800s. Only in the late 1800s early 1900s did that start to disappear as people slowly let go of morals and respect for each other as humans just vanished.
Waauw, what a beautyfull picture. Two very handsome people. ❤❤
Such less stress in retirement!
They only organization that still practice that is The Nation Of Islam under Min Farrakhan
Nowadays, Ya'll eat ass on the second date
This is Islamic dating.
This is rules of the Bible! Healthy relationships
With this fatherless pandemic this needs to be practiced back into our community
Sounds like me dating my now husband in the 1980s. I wonder how much better our world would be if we were held to these standards now a days
That's right good times respect
This is definitely something that would greatly help in present day if our family structure was in place and it's not .
I heard a rumour that may be sundance. Well long john silver was based off Bas reeve
❤
Well...that was to help the lady get respect. It worked.
So very true... remember that day
Society needs to go back to that.
Abominations abound❗❗One of my "favorites" is a Clairol long running ad campaign featuring supermodel, Iman❗❗N about th early '80s & n all middl & upper class magazines & gigantic posters displayed from th ceilings of major department stores, i.e. Macy's, Innes,.... supermodel Iman, & 4-6 white models. Th white models hair & makeup are fully & attractively done. Iman's featuring n ths year+ Clairol campaign was Iman beng unfinished: minimal makeup if NE & her professionally cut, unstyled hair, slicked back & wet wth dripping hair color on2 a papr collr around her neck❗❗Whites cherished black peopl's primative motiff❗❗📯 ... Years ago on The Oprah Winfrey Show & early n th career of th African, very dark skinned & bald-headed super model, she & an African-American model wer part of fashion show of about 10 models. Whn th African-American model came out, she ws hardly applauded❗Thn th African model cam out & she ws wildly applauded❗❗Ths "appreciation" ws as phony as a $3 bill❗❗4 th sam resentmnts & emotional conflicts & truths, tht audience ovrcompensated n "appreciating" th evn mor Motherland model❗❗🤺❗📯❗❗Ths, all thes African Diaspora generations & white society always on th hunt 4 th source of th stench outside of thmselvs❗💫📯❗🤳
Ths all thes generations is th foundation of th heart-crushing situation a few years back of beng nsync wth, understanding Simone Biles' breakdown about her natural hair after/during an Olympic performances❗❗❗
It was done correct though.
All that caution, to get together and then have 17 kids 😂😂
17 kids.... while married. Not ride the CC, and then marry like nothing happened.
Learning alot from your channel ❤
I love that!
