Some black dude that said africans were electric beings so they had to buy his special electric nutrient food. Essentially he was a con artist, but he got a lot of people thinking about their health, well being, energy, the health of the black community, etc. lol.
.......I was relating to the fact that its fucked up for people to expect you to “be” a certain way bc of where you live, how you look, etc.
But yeah i do think theres a clear delineation between the predominate hood culture and black culture. The 6 or 7 kids i knew either from africa or with african parents just didnt have many of the same problems. I think pan-africanism is where a lot of the healthier cultural aspects are blooming in the community, which is why i think that stuff like Dr. Sebi- regardless of the fact that he was fostering ignorance of science and ripping a lot of people off- was ultimately a good thing.

So I went into another Live stream on this channel.. so he was talking about something new with Kanye N he mentioned Chicago.. so I’m like I’m from Chicago and I say something else …
He like hold on sister you not from Chicago.. nothing about you says Chicago..
And I was just appalled!! Like why Shawn!
Why can’t I be from Chicago?!
It reminded me of when I moved to this town and everyone always said you don’t act like you’re from Chicago.. you don’t talk like you’re from Chicago..
Wth does that even mean lmao
One of the first times i remember feeling like something was “different” in the black community was when my friend got told by the other kids that he wasnt black bc he was nerdy and liked to read. His dad was senegalese and both his parents were really traditional. He never got into the shit the other kids did, and they found ways to fuck with him for being a quiet kid, said he was “acting white”. But his sister was Issa Rae so he had a cool family backing him.
I forgot that chick even existed when i said badd babby.
i agree with you. Ill never understand why some people get fucked up about looks. Everything came from somewhere. Either be okay with borrowing stuff you like, or dont take ANYTHING from anywhere else...which would be impossible. Its very selective.
Im still confused as to what the fuck this thread is abt. I thought Rizor and Candi were life-mates. Apparently Frala and Lanny have also begun nesting?
