Thank you brotha that means a lot. I’ve done nothing but advocate for Black people and they attacked me and called me a tether and off code because I’m not with dissing on code Black immigrants.
A lot...
A lot...
Essentially... folks want to call all Black Immigrants tethers and the on code Black Immigrants should shut up and let Black Americans call them tethers. If you are a Black American and don't like it, you're automatically a tether. If you're an on code Black Immigrant and don't like it and decide not to support, that means you were a tether anyway. And F#$% anyone that doesn't like it.
If you want to listen to it all, be warned... It's 3 hours of dysfunction, soap-boxing, gaslighting and whining. There were some bright spots here and there, but some folks really revealed their true character. Also an unwanted lesson on 5 types of words and a weird lesson about raccoons.
Marcel actually admitted this when arguing with blackice_ATL. He said he doesn’t have a probably with White Supremacy he just wants reparations. I was blinded at the time but after this space my eyes are wide open. Blackice called it from the beginning.
I missed all this. Twitter is trash so I don't frequent. FBA is definitely a psyop, similar to MAGA. Intelligence agencies hijacked that movement years ago. There is no logic or reason in FBA twitter. Thats why I love this site. The discourse is much more intelligent and productive. Don't let this foolishness deter you in any way.
I’ll accept this feedback but I got frustrated because he kept yelling and couldn’t control his emotions. He kept talking about he got called names and so it justifies him calling other people names and I told him to get counseling so he can heal. Marcel was constantly lying on me in the space, misinterpreting my viewpoints, and insinuating I was scared. I may have been able to be nicer but he wasn’t doing me any favors. He was being nasty and hostile and he got a little of it back.
I apologized to the password dude and it still wasn’t enough. I had another space and he was whining about his password not working as a reason why he hasn’t posted. I reset his password and he found another excuse not to post. So he was throwing a jab at me and I threw one back at him a week ago. He was upset about it.
I had no Idea who was and was not STT except for Boobe. I never rocked with them….I dom’t like ghetto and dysfunction. You know me…top down and cigar.
Don’t you also agree that Marcel going into the space and attacking Jay was a bad look too? It was very off code/agent behavior in my opinion. He should have discussed it in a back channel but instead he decided to publicly bash, yell, and disrespect Black people actually making moves. Your summary is as if Jay needed to regulate his actions to not offend Marcel but Marcel does not have the same obligation towards Jay.
Absolutely. I listened to the beginning portion of Marcel's space. He badly misrepresented Jay's position and was extremely upset. As was Jay when Marcel continued to talk over him and be disrespectful on his own space. Both men were talking past each other and it was clear that it was getting personal. I noticed Marcel pounding away at the thumbs down button when our folks were speaking, which was tacky, in my opinion. I feel like I know Jay personally. I ate a meal with the man, he's good ppl. I will never question his commitment, unless he decides to wander way off into the coon wilderness. I feel I can offer him my opinion and he won't go to left field with it or press the nuclear button.
You are spot on brother. Its unfortunate that someone can repeat the same point over and over again and we still refuse to accept for the sake of maintaining animosity. I was very disappointed last night.
I completely disagree with your FBA attacks, Tariq Nasheed shade and wholesale blaming of Marcel, but your point is understood.
But then want to act shocked when we don’t have any shit that we own. Every time a nigga come out and say “do for self” they fight against it. That’s all niggas is really saying…let’s focus on building our own shit like Malcolm said and these niggas like “nah ima complain and wait for a check”.
Man you did your thing. I tried to throw an alley oop by stating how you consistently shut down any anti black rhetoric on the site. Unfortunately it just went over their head. Hell you clearly addreseed your sentiment when we spoke and people just glossed right over it. Point is this is why the Bible says 2/3 of us will pass away in ignorance. It's evident to be true. Those who are truly about building will do so and those who are about just talking will be doing so 10 years later.I’ll accept this feedback but I got frustrated because he kept yelling and couldn’t control his emotions.

Thanks for trying your hardest to view the situation objectively.
I will also agree to disagree good brother but I didn’t attack FBA I simply made an observation. The only attacks happening are some of the loudest FBA voices attacking 6ZEROS. I would hope that such behaviors would spark skepticism in one’s mind. But I don’t want to have static with you, you’re a good brother and a soldier.
That's the real work that Tariq refers to unfortunately a lot of us still believe them folks Ice is colder. Ridiculous.
This is on code behavior. Peaceful disagreement
Thanks brotha. I walked into a snake pit thinking the rattlesnakes would recognize my good intentions…NOPE! It is what it is. We will keep on trucking and that scripture you dropped was spot on. This year we tripled our engagement metrics if we do it again next year we will be a force to be reckoned with.Man you did your thing.

There is a scripture for everything.
That was the first twitter space I had been in in months and yet it sounded like I never left as far a willful ignorance on the same topic.
We have other enemies. Hear twitter tell it black immigrants are the end all be all of our oppresion. Smh
Right! I stay quiet on Twitter. Alots of sneaky ppl and back stabbing politics on black twitter..... People with burner accounts causing drama etc....My eyes were opened wide two years ago for sure......
That's what I like to hear brother. Proud to be a part of the progress made this year!!! Cheers to many more!!
Same, I had to catch up myself but I agree. I love this platform and it is much more engaging.
I do feel that FBA is a Lineage but people are using as an excuse to separate. We do have a culture here the same way Jamaicans have a culture. However they are still African and what we are seeing is people who don’t want to be African. Most if the people who feel that way don’t understand much about Africa’s history or present because many people think Africa is just sitting down waiting for us to “save them” or something when people are resisting even as we speak.
Black Americans definitely have our own lineage and that is being the Descendant of American Chattel Slavery but is FBA a lineage? Is FBA an accurate explanation of that lineage? What does FBA provide that DOACS does not? It’d just a made up term by Tariq to take the steam out of the ADOS movement.
Yes it does , at least to me, because that term includes more people than just Black. That also includes Jews and some white people who were in shackles and based on how they’re playing with the terminology in terms of history in regards to reparations in CA. For example they are trying to include white people who may have a Black ancestor that was a slave so I do feel we need to specify BLACK. There are also some Black Indians who did not experience slavery, like my Great Great Grandfather but if we look closely to the Black Indians who fought Andrew Jackson who then went to Mexico for a time before returning to America after slavery was “ended” I feel those people deserve a check too because they were affected by that same system. Im trying yo think of the Black Indian who was seen with another Native American called Wild Cat but I cant think of it right now. Our history here isn’t as simple as they try to make it.
I only agree with the term based on Crispus Attucks. His death was literally the foundation of this country. We are the foundation of the country. I think it sums up our lineage quite nicely. Freedmen is also a favorite of mine as it is listed as a term for our people legally on paper.
Freedmen works too because that applies to us and I may start using that instead. We are foundational in many other ways too. It’s a good description of who we are but the beauty of it is being tainted by grown ass children that don’t know any better. I think I have reluctance in regards to disowning the description because I truly feel the people who are attacking other black people with it are coons. Not house negroes but the ones who wanted that role but couldn’t qualify. We haven’t spoken enough about the coon on the field that was waiting to sell us out at the first opportunity for his chance to be a house negro.
That’s crazy because a month ago it was about getting people together and now they are showing their teeth to their own people.
For you, does the same apply for someone that will constantly lie on another black person? The lying causes you to lose business deals, damages your reputation, causes others to threaten you, etc... No repentance and no regret from them. Just constantly lying on you because you disagree or you are threatening to their ego?
I am a humble man sis. Can't argue with the scriptures.
If you listen to Tariq and most FBA’s, on code Black immigrants are never a problem, and are not called tethers. At least, I’ve never heard that before; it seems pretty clear to me. When did that change, if it did and receipts please.
Where can I find the whole thing? That’s what I meant tho by he let those trolls gas him up
Go look at Jays twitter or mine. People who don’t agree with their rhetoric or how how they deal with people who identify as Pan-African. That’s the problem.
That's what I thought as well. According to some, on-code Black Immigrants should be okay with being called a tether and if they are offended by it, then it means they were a tether anyway.
Of course. Never thought it would be over the word "tether" though.More infighting?
Or just go on twitter period
I feel like people are using it to disconnect from Africa and I don’t feel that is the spirit of what FBA is.That's what I thought as well. According to some, on-code Black Immigrants should be okay with being called a tether and if they are offended by it, then it means they were a tether anyway.

You actually can't the people that were calling me tether and a immigrant blocked me lol so I can't see the posts. Maybe they realized how dumb they looked after I started ignoring them.
I gave him 3 times to talk and then after the last time I took him off the stage and never brought him back.
That was my entire point but people attacked me for it.
Yes. People are attacking 6ZEROS because we said that on code Black immigrants shouldn’t be called tethers. Marcel dame into the space and started yelling saying “Fuck the feelings of Black immigrants and if they are mad for being called a tether they were a tether in the first place”. Then made a space lying on me saying that I’m trying to cape for immigrants.More infighting?
