Like when he was talking about Rick James , Vlad was constantly talking about the book he read . When Jai White wanted to talk about the friend he knew . Not A Book ! Which is Entertainment , not necessarily truth . Which we all could read . But hearing from 1st hand accounts of a friend , is priceless ...

    Michael Jai White was actually CORRECT in saying that his people are from the land misnomered "South Carolina" because he's indigenous to America, but doesn't, or didn't at the time, realize it.
    Pale-skinned Europeans did NOT have the power to bring over millions of Africans to America when they just got free from under us on July 4th, 1776, which they celebrate every year as "Independence Day!"
    Britain was ruled by dark-skinned Moors at that time. Dark-skinned people still ruled the entire earth until the 1800's, when our empires and kingdoms began to crumble completely due to our own corruption!
    I love all people, which is why I tell the truth about everyone's history, which is the REVERSE of what is taught in the U.S. Corporation Department of Education indoctrination centers.
    PEACE and LOVE, everyone! 👍🏾✊🏾🇲🇦🔯

    Did anyone notice Vlad tried to get him to implicate himself on something that does not have a statute of limitations. Very slick with it...but it didn't work.
