Do you have any Christmas traditions in your family? Maybe ones that had been around for a long time or newer ones you started with your own kids? I am curious. I want to get some traditions going of my own. I grew up with the basic traditions you would expect. The tree, the gifts, making cookies with my mom, decorating the house (lights) with my dad, we never went all crazy and did that elf nonsense though. My mom only just found out that was even a thing lol

What Christmas traditions do you have with your family that you enjoy being a part of every year?

Some people are saying Blacks are done in Cali. The raw numbers aren't good. Latinos have pretty much taken over all the black areas. I think Compton and Watts are majority latino and in the other areas (Inglewood, Baldwin Hills, East Oakland) gentrification has taken a stronghold and getting stronger.
I got mad love or Cali. Been up and down the state.
So, Cali brothers and sisters, what say you? TBA said the same. There is still reparations for FBAs in Cali that looks like its going to happen. Stay and fight or go to Texas, Vegas, where ever?

Help me understand this. People are calling for her to step down among other things for allowing a professor there to say 'intifada'


But not a peep, when, another Penn professor, Amy Wax (and yes you can infer what her religion is) for years were saying all kinds of things about Black folks, we don't appreciate western achievements and also for years she's been saying Blacks can't compete at Penn.

No one is pointing this out.

Democrats have introduced bicameral legislation this week to take a step toward getting Wall Street out of the housing market amid a crisis during which house prices have soared to record highs.

The bill would ban hedge funds from buying and owning single-family homes. The legislation would require hedge funds to sell off their stock of single-family homes over the next 10 years and would then implement an outright ban. For every single-family home a hedge fund owns over a certain limit each year, it would be subject to a tax penalty, the revenues from which would be used for down payment assistance programs for those seeking to buy their first home from a hedge fund.

The End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act of 2023 was introduced by Rep. Adam Smith (D-Washington) and Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Oregon). The lawmakers say that the only purpose for hedge funds to own homes is to make profits and that such investing has only made it more difficult for working class Americans to afford to buy a home.

“In 1971, my father was able to buy the house I grew up in for $15,000 on the salary he earned as a baggage handler at SeaTac Airport. That same house would cost nearly $500,000 today yet wages for workers like my father have not kept up,” Smith said in a statement. “Congress must take action to crack down on corporate greed and get hedge funds out of the single-family home market.”

The bill, if passed, could provide some rare relief to people seeking to buy a home. According to National Association of Realtors data, the median price of a single-family home in November 2019 was $271,300 — while, in November of this year, the median home price was $400,000.

White Supremacists/Racists have been proven to use "nerd culture" to continue the existence of the System Of White Supremacy (examples of this is the existence of Racist movies and Racist videogames) how can Non-White people use this so-called nerd culture to help Replace White Supremacy With Justice (without using groupthink)?

My suggestions are for people who identify as nerds to spend time and energy to design pieces of fiction that are designed to Counter-Racism/White Supremacy or use their intelligence to figure out a solution to ending White Supremacy/Racism.

African countries are often run by corrupt, European ass kissing mofos. The young, the Gen Zers I've met often fall in one of two categories.

European ass kissers. Anything white is right. Or renewed pride in being Black. A lot of the Gen Zers are pro black American. Why? They grew up with black American (FBA) icons in music especially. They use black American slang mixed in with their own language. Especially in IG, Whatsapp, Twitter. I've dated one or two and she would talk about melanin. Lotsa these women are now using that and proud of their dark complexion. I've been fortunate to visit the continent and there are all types. Those that see you as basically a black version of a white American and they are looking for the dolo out of your pockets. I've seen loads, too many, hard core swirlers. But I've been happy to meet some who love their blackness. Have a sense of community with other Africans and those of us in the diaspora.

I mentioned on here once or twice that I was living in Asia several years ago and my circle was a tight knit group of brothers who were mostly American (both FBA and non FBA, but also had Canadian, South African, Ghanian and we were all B1. It was beautiful. Everyone had each other's back. We linked up a lot and turnt up at spots and it the most beautiful experiences of true brotherhood I've had outside my homies back in my neighborhood.

Is this the norm? No, unfortunately but its possible. If you link on the same B1 vibe. The one country I've met the most love though is the UK. There is a reason why Tariq said the Blacks in the UK are the biggest supporters of his projects outside America. I spent some time in an area in south London called Brixton and Streatham. I had a great time. Got mad love. Interesting thing is they mostly of Caribbean background and some are of African lineage but they have this unique accent of British mixed with Caribbean slang and black American slang. Can't describe it, you'll just have to hear it. They also found my American black slang accent just as interesting and it was kinda strange because we shared similar lineage, B1 mindset but culturally had different slang, kinda, sorta similar poor and black upbringing, hood up bringing. What we call the projects, they call Council Estates. I learned a lot.

Anyway, some of the Gen Zers are talking about

I find it interesting how so many people talk about how useless college degrees are but yet at so many schools (but not all), they are reporting their largest incoming freshman class ever. I wonder are some people going to get a school refund check. I know that's why some people were going when I was in school.

If you're reading this, and you're Black, then I want to see you win.
I don't care whether you're FBA or immigrant, male or female, straight or gay, conservative or liberal, Team PS5 or Team Xbox, none of that matters. If you're Black & on-code, then I've got your back.
Even if we disagree to the point of argument, that doesn't mean that I don't like you, or wouldn't stand up for you in the real world. Family doesn't always have to agree, but we are all still a beautiful Black family.
That being said, I pray that you have a happy, safe, & joyous holiday season (unless you're a jerk. In that case, you can kick rocks).
