Roland Martin Attacks Jason Black

Login to view embedded media View: https://youtu.be/hXKcRHFAOgU


Roland Martin Unfiltered has taken a drastic turn, upon his interview with Gary Chambers Jr., Butterball decides to take aim at Jason Black, The Professor, Vicki Dillard and Tariq Nasheed. Roland's broadcast was supposed to highlight Candidate Chamber's potential election against John Kelly Kennedy, but it was "Bad Money", not only is Chamber's in over his head, but he's out of his element, as well as underfunded with over $400K versus Kelly's $18million+, Chambers would be better served as a member of the New Orleans Saints Offensive line. Just before opening the Telephone lines, TBA puts out the signal and asks who else will "Arise to the occasion", with no COVID restrictions "THIS IS GOOD", sound of the thread, leave a B1 if y'all be there, safe travels if you are.

White People, picnics & Black death

White People, Picnics, And The True Connection To Black Death Contrary to popular belief, the word “picnic” doesn’t come from the phrase “picking a n****r to lynch.” However, there IS an association between picnics and white violence – and it’s just as troublesome and messed up as you may fear. Content Warning: The following story contains graphic imagery displaying anti-Black violence that some may find triggering or disturbing.

Who are Your Favorite Rap Groups

Put one per post, you can make multiple posts.

I have to go with Outkast. They were a pivotal part of my life during high school. I think I was in 9th Grade when So Fresh, So Clean came out and it was such an iconic track.

Aquemini is my favorite album from them overall but Stankonia was the Outkast album that came out when I really had a grasp of who I was. Shit hit differently.

What Does Pro Black Mean to You?

I was thinking about this question after being called a pro-black militant tonight at a kick back. The problem with the statement is that it was used as a pejorative by a shea-butter twitter type with a septum piercing. So I want to ask the ZERONATION what does Pro Black mean to you? To me it's:
  • Advocating for the interest of Black people
  • Standing on my square as a Black person
  • Wanting and working towards the betterment of Black people
  • Being Black and proud
  • Prioritizing other Black people
Nothing about it is radical, militant, or wrong but we are in such a racist society that the above is a radical concept. Asians, Hispanics, and etc can practice all of the above but when we do it we are radical. There's been some great brainwashing done to our people.

So what does Pro Black mean to you and do you think it is the same as B1?

Bonus Question: What does pro black mean to you when used in a negative context?

Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins dies at age 50 for unknown reasons. The band's statement read, "our hearts go out to his wife, children and family, and we ask that their privacy be treated with the utmost respect in this unimaginably difficult time." Friends, fans and colleagues remember and reflect on Hawkins's career.

WTF!

That's super unexpected. This is my favorite Rock Band.

Not only did Mike not flinch but he diffused the situation. Looks like the cops need to ride along with Mike Tyson to figure out how to deescalate. Fortunately nothing bad came of it and everyone left amicably. They didn’t even call the cops.

No One Tests Your Gangsta Like a Workplace Karen: Part 2

vecteezy_close-up-of-woman-therapist-listening-to-people-with_4432079_10-scaled.jpg


Welcome back family! If this is your first time joining us, please read part one of this series, then come on back.

If you’re caught up and ready to continue our journey into workplace Karens and their BS, then by all means, let’s get crackin’.

So as I mentioned in part 1, microaggressions are the limit tests Karens run on you, to ultimately determine how racist they can truly be in your presence. In other words, how much of themselves they can actually be without having their mouth gone up in. I’ll continue to divulge with you examples from my experiences in my current situation and examine their racist energy. We will be reintroduced to the antics of Workplace Karen #1 (bka WK1), and introduced to my passive workplace Karen (PWK going forward) and her foolishness.

Table of Contents

Inside the Mind of the Karen​

Now you might be thinking, what in the bass-ackwards hell would embolden these Karens to pull this ish; at work no less. Well…..You. Me. Us. We emboldened them, remember? When we thought it was just making small talk asking us about our educational background, our family, our favorite kind of music, but as we discussed in part one, it was really to compile data so they could see what kind of “black person” we were. A microaggressive ruse to determine how they can sneak their blatant racism into the dynamic. Lest we forget the golden rule of thumb: WHITE PEOPLE ALWAYS KNOW WHAT THEY’RE DOING.

Now that they’ve run their test diagnostics, if-you-will, they start making overtly snide comments about fill-in-the-blank parts of town being ‘crime-riddled and poor’. Y’know, the code words for the predominantly black parts of town. Now they crack jokes or make comments about stereotypical behavior of black people like eating fried chicken or watermelon, as if none of us are vegan or vegetarian or heaven-forbid we like other fruits. Suddenly they have interesting takes on our fashion, our hair, our culture, our legends, our men, our women, our every-damn-thing. Where in the blueberries-in-the-potato salad hell, did they get all this audacity from?

Us. WE gave it to them. While we were thinking all their small talk was in good faith. They were preparing us for the big one all along. The blatant, the overt, the obvious racism. Once again, “we’ve been had,” as our wise, Brother Malcolm X said. They ALWAYS know what they’re doing, family.

Now, I imagine the suspense is killing you by now so, let’s get into it, and examine some scenarios.

When we last discussed WK1, she was micro-aggroing Black History Month by telling me about some white woman who struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. One of the more heinous interactions I had with WK1, was around the first few days I started the job. Somehow, we got on the topic of gentrification and what was happening in the communities on Cleveland’s east side. Like most black people, I am opposed to gentrification because I believe it’s a publicity stunt at best.1 WK1 decided to see how racist she could be around me and said this little gem,

When Karen Pushes the Line​

“Well it’s a statistical fact that when black people move into a predominantly white neighborhood, crime goes up. Those people move in from their old neighborhoods and they think they can still act the same way.”

Me: “So you’re willing to bet your life that crime goes up because of the presence of black people in predominantly white neighborhoods and NOT because they’re being harassed by police and taken in on BS charges because they ‘don’t belong there’, aren’t having the cops called on them for the same shit they would otherwise just yell at white kids about and then those same people are pressing charges when a simple apology from the white kids suffices in any other situation? You’re willing to bet your entire existence that that ISN’T what’s actually happening which in turn would seem like crime is going up because these ‘crimes’ are getting reported on now?”

If you’re not pickin’ up what I’m puttin’ down, WK1 went radio silent. See friends, these white broads are convinced that black women aren’t educated. So when they meet one who is, it f***s with their standard operating system. Like a computer that’s fritzing out. Needless to say, we didn’t speak about anything else after that. Case and point family, WK1 is the norm. She’s the garden variety, stereotypical white co-worker who we’ve all dealt with, or currently are dealing with. She has ALL the boldness, ALL the self-importance and ALL the superiority complex of a never-been-checked Karen.

Passive Workplace Karens​

Next, we introduce into the discussion, passive Workplace Karen (PWK). I know, I know “What in the hell is a passive Workplace Karen?” What? You don’t know? Of course you do. She’s the white girl who appears to be cool with the black co-workers. Then once she’s buddy buddy enough, spews her low-key racist shit and gets away with it. My PWK has a mixed race child that she uses as her “I’m not a racist” card. Honestly, I don’t engage with her like that for that reason alone. I’m hip to that phony baloney game by now. Recently, she mentioned how her daughter was upset that her (white) cousins get color in their hair and she wants to get her hair colored sometimes too. PWK expressed how it was hard for her to explain to her daughter why she couldn’t get her hair colored like her cousins.

Noticing this is clearly a ‘you’re a white girl and don’t know shit about black people and our hair’ moment, I of course chimed in briefly to the conversation and said, “my sister had color in her hair all the time when I was growing up.” Another black co-worker mentioned to her that she can get her hair colored, it just depends on where PWK takes her to get it done. PWK, in all the passive racist energy of hers, said something along the lines about only letting certain people “touch her baby’s head”. Now listen ladies, you know, like I know that stylists and beauticians…they’re like mechanics.

When we find one we like, we tend to stick with them. But this chick is a whole ass white chick with a BLACK KINKY HAIRED CHILD. When SHE says it, she just means she ain’t takin’ her to a black salon to get her hair done. PWK, still in this same conversation mind you, goes on to comment about how her kid’s hair used to be wavy, stringy and curly…like a white girl and how much she (meaning PWK) loved it. But now, her daughter’s hair has transitioned into it’s kinkyness, like a black girl’s. Wild guess how PWK feels about it now…? Exactly… suddenly, she hates her daughter’s hair now. She showed a picture and I said, “Oh yeah, I love her hair. It’s like how mine gets after it dries. Afro-puffy” After this, PWK says “why did I have to sleep with a black guy”. Then in an effort to sterilize her racism says, “even though black guys are my type.”

I gave this broad the death stare like nobody’s business. She turned her ass right back around and didn’t say another word to me. That proves to me, what I’ve suspected about these Beckys who sleep with our men and then give birth to black babies, she’s said shit like this in the past, continues to say shit like this regularly AND hasn’t been checked…yet. Overall, all this means to me is PWK is a covert racist at best and if she has black friends, they’re mixed themselves and thus lean into their whiteness, OR they’re a bunch of coons lacking a spine.

In Closing​

Family, these examples, these scenarios I’ve shared of my recent experiences, are just a few of MANY of all our workplace stories. These are NOT isolated incidents, these aren’t one-offs. These are white people in the workplace behaving as their privilege and superiority trained them. Even the most well-intentioned white co-workers, let their privilege dribble out the side of their mouth and their real feelings get said out loud. Now in most cases, we can’t go through our entire workday and NOT speak with our open enemy. So in our final discussion, we’ll wrap this topic up and talk about how to deal with workplace Karens while maintaining your professionalism…and your job. Until next time, B1.

Black News Channel Shutting Down Effective Immediately!

GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!

bnc-936x527.jpg

After months of uncertainty, Black News Channel (BNC) is shutting down on Friday just two years after its launch.

Multiple employees told TheWrap they were notified individually that Friday would be the last day of live programming for the Tallahassee, Florida-based network. The channel was launched in February 2020 by former GOP congressman J.C. Watts and broadcast executive Bob Brillante to target Black audiences they felt were underserved by other news outlets.

One staffer said Friday department heads contacted individual employees by phone to inform them that they were being let go. “I’m disappointed in the way management handled the situation and their lack of transparency,” the staffer told TheWrap. “I’m saddened because there are so many amazing journalists who care about Black and Brown stories and truly believed in the concept. Now with no notice, their lives and livelihoods are in limbo.”

Rollie Forbes
In this vintage address Professor Black Truth spoke to how the dominate society has run out of worlds and regions to conquer and after they died off the buffer groups will try to impose their will on the global black majority. The Professor said something to the effect of the task being carried out by Brown Spanish or Arabs, The East Asians with Yellow Supremacy or Our very own Boule wanting to establish their very own Greek order. This one video among other that can be listened to in the Gym, On the road, during meditation or cooking, it's a motivational rallying call.

MoT #105 Biden Announces 100,000 Ukrainians Coming To The US

Login to view embedded media View: https://youtu.be/TTNCxp0-xWY


Professor Black Truth spoke to the double-edged sword of the potential (chain) migration of approximately 100,000 Ukrainians, we must remember that this is also on the low end and does not exclusive mean Ukrainian citizens. Despite the ethnic differences, I have noticed throughout my own experiences especially in Germany, Czech, Austria and Italy that EU member nations do not typically enforce border restrictions among the white residents, meaning its basically nomadic. With that said, it'd be very easy for other EU residents to slip into this chain migrant program, what's currently going unsaid (as mentioned in the address) is radio silence and the staunch ANTI-IMMIGRANT stance in the right wing. I also noticed how FOX and Tucker Carleson in specific don't really have an issue here but, is this really gonna bite them on the campaign trail?

Thoughts on this, fellas?

Untitled.png
As far as I know, this has been a 10-year process. I remember them talking about this back in like 2011/2012. They wanted to make an option for men so they can protect themselves from unwanted pregnancies. Think about dudes who are in the NBA or other sports, ones who have a lot of money and just want a hookup. Those girls are looking to latch on that money for life by getting pregnant. I have heard some stories!

What are your thoughts on this? Would you be willing to make use of this? Do you have concerns?

Remember the movie, Selena?

I honestly forgot about it. I saw it when I was really young. It has been 25 years since the movie dropped and it was the movie that set the stage and launched JLo's career. Who knows where she would be without the movie. I never thought she was one of the big names or singers of the time, she was good but not amazing or anything. Had a few songs that I liked back in the day.

Jennifer Lopez is celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Selena” with a heartfelt post. The entertainer shared a slideshow filled with photos and videos of her time as Selena Quintanilla Perez.

Portraying the late Queen of Tejano music was Lopez’s breakout role and one that she says, “Means so much to me.”

“What a very special day … we’re celebrating 25 years of SELENA! 🌹 Today we celebrate and honor Selena’s legacy and music,” Lopez, 52, wrote on her Instagram on Monday. “This movie means so much to me … Selena and her family mean so much to me, and I was so lucky to be chosen to play her.”

Why are people arguing over this "don't say gay bill" nonsense?

I keep hearing about it and people on all sides of politics are arguing over it. It has nothing to do with gay people. I actually read a briefing of the bill. It is meant to keep any and all sexual education away from younger children (even straight sex ed) as well as hold teachers accountable for not telling the parents if something happened to their child. Like say your kid gets a cut on their knee, they are obligated (because of this bill) to call the parents right away and tell them what happened. If they fail to do so, they will face prison time.

I see nothing wrong with this bill from what I have read of it. It is meant to protect kids. Am I missing something?

Another Black-Buster Experience

In this forum I mentioned a game titled; Aurion: legacy of the kori-odan. A phenomenally great 2D RPG genre as a great addition to the archive of history of Black lead main characters.

It’s now time to add two more into the rank and file. I submit you all…
