My #VGQ: Black People And Despair

I believe that the System Of White Supremacy has not only caused heavy amounts of despair (meaning: complete lack of hope) for ALL people on the planet but through this constant showering of misery and hopelessness, people have become used to and even entertained by the despair around them as well as the idea of causing despair, this affects White people and turns them into Racists.


Black people are most definitely an example of being so full of despair that we are entertained by it, I'll name some examples: Gangster Rap (Black people rapping and sometimes singing about how the pain/how much pain they want to inflict on and kill other Black people), in films and shows (typically a scene where a silly Black character will say something weird or stupid while in conversation with another Black person and that other Black character says something like "Man, shut the ((F)) up" in response *laughtrack ensues*, In this case, not only is there a silly Black person who is doing nothing but being silly and not focused on solving problems but he/she is also being verbally mistreated and we are programmed to laugh at that ((this silly Black character may also be the cause of some problems that the characters get into which further justifies their mistreatment)); my last example is playing video games and finding joy in causing chaos e.g. causing explosions, killing and beating characters, enemies or NPCs and being rewarded points for it etc. (the videogame example isn't mostly tied towards Black people but it is something that a great number of Black people do).


Finally, I will say that for many decades Black people have been talking about Racism/White Supremacy and the despair it causes but we did not talk about solutions to ending White Supremacy (other than the Black spokespersons that I know of like Neely Fuller Jr. and Dr. Frances Cress Welsing who, from what I have been told, decided to come up with solutions because not many Black people before them mentioned ways in which we can solve the Race Problem).



"So, how do you recommend that we solve this despair problem?" My answer: Just keep moving forward and try your very best to Replace the System Of White Supremacy (the cause of ALL problems on this planet) With a System Of Justice because that's all you can do, all you can do is move forward, I like to think that if you feel as if you are going nowhere, you aren't moving backwards and becoming degraded, you just stopped moving and stood in one place so you can only move forward. I remember being told by a person that "The fact that you are searching for hope (especially when trying to solve a specifc problem) proves that there is hope because your search for hope is motivated by the fact that you HOPE to find hope." So a person trying to end White Supremacy exists in a universe where hope also exists, otherwise why would that person be bothered to even think about ending Racism/White Supremacy? Whether it is The Creator, the White Supremacists themselves or the Victims Of Racism that end White Supremacy, this nightmare is guaranteed to end in one way or another and if you want Racism to be destroyed fast then you gotta put in that work yourself or with other people💪🏾💯💯🔥🔥

Black DC Apartment Building Increased From $75k To $2 Million

This apartment building increased from $75,000 to $2 million over a 40 year period. I like to see this kind of wealth being built the honest way amongst four Black women, but the money likely will be used over time to help them deal with their health problems. The neighborhood went from being bad when they bought it to so much better which is great news.

Karens

UK And US Issued Airstrikes On Yemen

This happened yesterday or the day before, I can't keep up but there might be interruptions coming to trade routes because of this. What does that mean? Prices are about to go up again if so and we may be facing shortages. So make sure you keep an eye on what these war mongers are up to. It is not looking good.

The US needs to mind its own business and fix the problems we have here instead of creating more problems for everyone else, including ourselves but there is not chance of that... not with who is in charge right now.

Grocery Pickup Or Delivery

I'm just curious as to how many of ya'll use grocery pickup or grocery delivery when you need groceries. Before the pandemic happened, some of the grocery stores in my geographic area started doing grocery pickup as a way of increasing revenue and standing out amongst customers. None of them offered grocery delivery until maybe about 4 years ago.

I used to be the kind of person who was against grocery pickup and delivery because I did not want somebody else picking out my fruits and vegetables although it does not matter who picks out products that come in sealed packages since a person cannot touch what is inside. I admit this is time consuming and may cause social anxiety for some. Then, the pandemic happened. I did not want to be around folks who were coughing with their mouths wide open and not even trying to keep the germs from spreading. Since the pandemic started, I have gotten my groceries delivered so many times. Picking them up is my second preferred option. And going inside is now my least favorite option although grocery shopping in my area is back to pre-pandemic times.

I am curious as to whether ya'll prefer grocery pickup or delivery, or whether you like the traditional way of walking in there and picking things out yourself?

Vision Boards

What are your thoughts on vision boards? The reason I ask this is because I keep seeing so many people talking about having a vision board. I have a personal one, and I have a business one. I created both of mine by taking magazines that I was about to throw in the trash. I cut pictures and positive words out and glued them onto the board. When I get up every morning, I have no choice but to see both of them. It is a psychological reminder everyday that I need to do things to move upwards. My overall thoughts are that they can be a great tool to visually see the big goal(s).

Need Your Stubborn, Damaged Hair Restored In Weeks?

There is a new Black hair care product for those people who have stubborn, damaged hair. It works in just weeks. Some of the other ones on the market may not work for a portion of our population. I love to see products like this since they can help our people look our best.
