THE OFFICIAL RANDOM THOUGHTS THREAD!!!

[~]

If it's ok, this is just a thread for folk to post what's on their mind at any given time. For example, here's what's going on on my mind right now:


Puking my guts out @ MSNBC's Meeting David Wilson program.


There, now you give it a shot!

Why when I speak up on my Afrikaness, I'm told that I have a 'chip on my shoulder'. My response to such feeble attempts to invalidate who I be is 'I haven't got a chip on my shoulder, I have Mount Kilmanjaro on my shoulder and Sankofa on my back'.

No one could have told me last year that I would be where I am now.... I mean, sure no one knows what's going to happen a year from now, but just the vast difference from all of the many changes that have taken place..??? No, you really couldn't have told me... wouldn't have believed you....

Yet, its still alright.... better than actually... and I hold much excitement for my future!

Will Barack Obama survive to be President and if he does become President will he really bring change, and if he brings change what kind of change will he bring? Pessimistic in NC.

I agree with Atuegbu in many areas. With all the Black women Black men have access to, why the hell would they go out of their way to choose a white woman (and all too often the white man's rejects).

I am so excited to be moving away from Nashville, TN this month. So many backward thinking Black zombies here (moreso than alot of places). I don't profess to be the most conscious and militant person in the world, but "DAMN". Hope noone on here is offended (just in case you are from Nashville). I also think that there is alot of oppression here (that may explain the way people act here). The Black men here love the white man's reject (alot) and won't even give a polite and cordial hello to black woman.

Sorry for the rant!!! Just venting!!

I hear you, Bro, however, you know that the brothers ain't never had a problem dating outside their race and seem to do it quite effortlessly. I'm not saying I approve or disapprove. I am dispassionate about the subject. People have free will and do exercise it.

With the black community's male-female civil war in full swing, inter-racial dating is only going to increase, not just with white women, but with women of other races as well as black women of other nations.
