I am asking this question because I know people here have seen some good news stories (out of all the negative ones that are pushed onto us).

Hey y’all Bahni here, back in my hometown and the funeral is over now. Thank you for all the well wishes but I wanted to share something with you. That was kind of shocking, but at the same time not really shocking because we know how these people get down check out this article and this racist ass statue in my home country. What do you think I should do about it? I think I want to find it and….🫡💣💥 Let me know in the comments below.

🧐😐 They said he coach the others into aiding and abetting him...?

According to Larry Neumeister of the Associated Press, Williams' healthcare scam lasted from 2017 to 2021 and saw him defraud $5 million from the NBA Health and Welfare Benefit Plan.

Williams enlisted the help of a dentist in California and doctors in both California and Washington to file claims for "fictitious medical and dental expenses."

Judge Valerie E. Caproni chastised Williams for his actions, saying: "You were yet another player who frittered away substantial earnings from the period of time when you were playing basketball professionally. You should have had enough money to be set for life, but you don't!"

Williams pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit healthcare and wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, making him the 13th former NBA player to plead guilty in a wide-ranging healthcare fraud case. Five other former NBA players have been charged as well.

The court ordered that Williams forfeit more than $650,000 and pay $2.5 million in restitution.

Williams, 36, starred at the University of Louisville before going 11th overall to the then-New Jersey Nets in the 2009 draft.

He went on to spend four seasons in the NBA from 2009 to 2013, playing for the Nets, Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings and Boston Celtics.

Stories like this are why statements like “Black Americans are the only ones fighting White Supremacy” are idiotic. We got brothas across the pond going to war and pushing out the colonists.

Niger just kicked France stanking @$$ Put and Burkina Faso and Mali said any attacks on Niger is an attack against them. This is what we need to see in Africa.

The reason I asked this question is that the people who control things are secretly watching everybody as much as they can and are making predictions of their own. Then, they steer us towards "solutions" that are already pre-ready for us.

It is called "problem-reaction-solution."

August 11, 1841 - Frederick Douglass First Major Speech

During an anti-slavery convention on Nantucket Island, Frederick Douglass gave a powerful speech on his life as a slave. After the speech, Douglass was asked to become a full-time lecturer for the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. Douglass gained an international reputation as a powerful orator and author. He would spend the rest of his life fighting against injustice.

A woman in blackface showed up at a Target store ... that's outrageous enough, but wait till you hear how she went off the rails.

Ersilia Campbell sauntered into a Target in the Aurora area of Colorado and beelined it for a store employee -- demanding to know where to find the Pride section. The employee explained Pride month was over, and she then suggested the LGBTQ community had hijacked the American flag with the Pride flag.





The employee was clearly taken aback ... Campbell said what she was doing was no different from Lester **** dressing up for Halloween as Susan Boyle, a white woman.

Her work wasn't done. Campbell also went to a Starbucks, with Trump stickers emblazoned on her shirt as she groused she was fired from the post office.





We did some digging, and found Ersilia apparently got the axe from the P.O. back in February, but she must've caused a similar stink there, because a trespassing notice was posted Tuesday alerting employees to call the Postal Inspection Service if she showed up again.

She ranted against her former coworkers online, calling them "some of the loneliest, miserable, trashiest, lazy people in my life."

Maybe she needs to look in a mirror.

UPDATE
11:43 AM PT -- The Aurora PD tells TMZ Ersilia Campbell was taken into protective custody after determining she was unable to take care of herself.

This video remake of Shaquille's song is going viral. I'm from the south so Shaq shouting out Houston legend Fat Pat earns him a tip of the hat from. Good to see the Z-Ro getting some shine and the youngins getting put on to him.

Shout to the culture. Loose Ends still making dough from that iconic sample. Honoring our past and creating future.

I'm just curious as to how many folks here listen to Tariq for Black news and how many listen to him for entertainment value.

-- other states will probably follow suit.

I am sick and tired of this AI crap and David decided to mix it with a Barbie theme. I hope this phase dies down. I find this disrespectful. When people do stuff like this, I’m wondering about their motive. They have one of Malcom X, Nelson Mandela, etc. I don’t care for some of these, and don’t like the fact that this guy is grouping all the people as legends. He thinks people like Oprah Winfrey, Michelle and Barack Nobama are legends. He thinks Mother Theresa and Pope Francis are legends too. NOT.
