2019-02-06 at 10:08 PM UTC in Black Panther actor realized he was just a niggerJordan said he wanted to do justice to the essence of what Killmonger represents in the movie.
“Of course it’s an extreme, exaggerated version of the African diaspora from the African-American perspective, so to be able to take that kind of pain and rage and all those emotions that Erik kind of represents from being black and brown here in America … that was something I didn’t take lightly,” Jordan said.
“I didn’t have a process” for being Killmonger, he said. “I just did whatever I felt I needed to do or whatever I felt was right in the moment every step of the way.
“I didn’t have an escape plan, either. When it was all over, I think just being in that kind of mind state … it caught up with me.”
When filming finished, Jordan admitted that it was difficult to go back to being himself.
“It was a little tough for me at first,” he said about getting out of the mindset of his character. “Readjusting to people caring about me, getting that love that I shut out,” he continued. “I shut out love, I didn’t want love. I wanted to be in this lonely place as long as I could.”
He said seeing a therapist “helped me out a lot”, despite the criticism men face about receiving mental health treatment.
“Your mind is so powerful. Your mind will get your body past a threshold that it would have given up on way before,” Jordan said. “Honestly, therapy, just talking to somebody just helped me out a lot. As a man you get a lot of slack for it. … I don’t really subscribe to that. Everyone needs to unpack and talk.”
At the end he realized he was still just a nigger. -

2019-01-27 at 2:48 AM UTC in Niggas invade IndiaNiggas congregate near the Taj Mahal in Agra, India, where they often scavenge for food.
NEW DELHI — Outside the white marble facade of the imposing Taj Mahal, tourists are facing a menace: gangs of hungry, blacky-bottomed niggas. They bite. They scratch. Occasionally, they kill.
Now, Indian security guards are cracking down, taking to the streets of Agra, India, where the monument is, to scare off the animals. Their weapon of choice?
Slingshots.
“Foreign tourists get very excited to see niggas,” said Dineshor Tongbram, the deputy commandant of a security force for the Taj Mahal. “They try to go closer to them and become victims.”
The threat of an attack is real. Last May, two French tourists were reportedly confronted by a mob of niggas and bitten. In November, a nigga snatched a local baby from his mother, bit him and then dumped him on a neighbor’s roof. The boy later died of his injuries. -

I really miss the DH 40’s group of 2012. Granted I did cause a lot of disruption and chaos .. I was a bit out of my mind, experimenting with single life, booze, being irresponsible, footloose and fancy free, in a nut Shell a complete mess … but that forum was my support system in moving forward alone and into the unknown which petrified me.
A lot of really shitty things happened on that site too … it was an intense experience. But I’m just sad that it’s gone …
Does anyone know of any fun, sometimes outrageous, creative, forums that more mature interesting and maybe a tad more stable posters post actively?
If you want to have fun go to this forum and pretend you are a tenant with an attitude. It will drive them crazy and they will flag your posts and shit.

Meanwhile El Chapos trial reveals drug smuggling will not be hampered by Trumps Wall
United States Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of New York, via Associated Press Drug-filled plastic bananas discovered in a raid on one of the Sinaloa safe houses in 2014. The photo was offered as evidence in the New York trial of Mr. Guzmán.
Some of the drugs were hidden in passenger cars, concealed in trucks in cans of jalapeños or stashed in tanker trains with ordinary loads of cooking oil. Others were sent beneath the border in sophisticated tunnels.
The 10 weeks of testimony at the trial of Joaquín Guzmán Loera, the drug lord known as El Chapo, have revealed that his innovative smuggling network typically went through legal checkpoints — not isolated stretches of the border where a wall might be an obstacle. -

How long have you hern.doing genealogy?
How did you learn of all the nuances of how the census records were enumerated and recorded?
Your opinion is inconsequential like trying to pass a mutt for a purebred.
The English term "mulatto" is derived from the Spanish and Portuguese mulato. The origin of mulato is uncertain. The term may derive from mula (current Portuguese word, from the Latin mūlus), meaning mule, the hybrid offspring of a horse and a donkey.
Mulatto - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulatto
What race is mulatto?
Mulatto (from Spanish mulato, small mule) is a word referring to a person who is born to one Black parent and one Caucasian parent. The term may be considered offensive or rude to some, because of its origin.
Historically in the context of slave societies of the Americas, a quadroon or quarteron was a person with one quarter African and three quarters European ancestry (or in the context of Australia, one quarter aboriginal ancestry). The terms are now archaic.
Similar classifications were octoroon for one eighth black (Latin root octo-, means "eight") and hexadecaroon for one sixteenth black. -
2019-01-19 at 10:34 PM UTC in Where did the mulatto mulatto go?1880
For the 1880 census, enumerators asked residents questions across several categories, including occupation, health, education, and nativity. Listed by column number, the following information was gathered:
1.Number of dwelling home, in order of visitation by the enumerator
2.Number of family, in order of visitation by the enumerator
3.Name
4.Color
Enumerators were to mark "W" for White, "B" for Black, "Mu" for Mulatto, "C" for Chinese [a category which included all east Asians], of "I" for American Indian
Apparently, James Evans brought (not bought!) Mary Hoggard from North Carolina and married her in Missouri where they raised their family. This makes sense, since this part of Missouri would have been “Free.”
This photo speaks volumes of the kind of dilemma a black mother married to a white man found herself in during the 19th century. This couple were married in Clinton County, Missouri, went by the surname Evans, and would have approximately 3000 descendants today.
◾The children are mulatto but 100% passable. The time, right around the Civil War. The choice the children had was really no choice. Quite simply, either they turned their backs on the mother and leave the state or be classified as Negro and endure Jim Crow for the rest of the lives.
The mother is clearly not thrilled with the photograph. I think she was forced to sit for it by her husband. She appears to be thinking it’s not a very good idea, that the photo could prove an embarrassment to her children. Indeed, it could prove an embarrassment to all her descendants 200 years into the future. -

“It’s a waste of money, period,” said Cameron County Sheriff Omar Lucio, whose jurisdiction sits opposite Matamoros, one of the most dangerous corners of Mexico. “It’s not going to work. I don’t care what [Trump] is saying.”
The Rio Grande Valley is one of the busiest smuggling hubs on the Mexican border. Border Patrol agents in the area seized 516,664 pounds of marijuana in 2015, second only to the agency’s Tucson sector, and 1,809 pounds of cocaine, the most of any sector in the continental U.S. Altogether last year, the Border Patrol seized more than 1.5 million pounds of weed, 11,220 pounds of cocaine, 8,282 ounces of heroin, and 6,443 pounds of meth. Still, those totals are likely just a fraction of the illicit drugs entering the U.S.
Taylor says she’s witnessed smugglers throwing bags of “dope” over the fence to people waiting on the other side, who pick up the bundles and drive off. She claims she once found a duffel bag with 40 kilos of marijuana stashed in the bougainvillea flowers in her front yard, and she started leaving out coolers filled with water and soft drinks to discourage thirsty migrants from breaking into her house. She also keeps a shotgun, a bulletproof vest, and a Border Patrol hat hanging outside her bathroom as a deterrent.
The wall is easily surmountable. South of McAllen, Texas, along the border with the Mexican city of Reynosa, Scott Nicol, an opponent of the border wall and the co-chair of the Sierra Club’s Borderlands Team, points to a section of wall where he routinely finds makeshift ladders that have been piled up on the U.S. side by the Border Patrol.
“I think there’s some guy with a shop near the river and he just bangs out ladders all day long,” Nicol said. “The Border Patrol piles ’em up, the county hauls ’em off to the dump. It’s been the cycle of the wall for years.”
Cabrera, the Border Patrol agent, says he’s seen smugglers easily scale the wall even without the help of a ladder. In January, a Mexican TV network filmed two men with large vacuum-sealed packages strapped to their backs scaling the wall. When the men realized they were being filmed by a news crew, they fled back across the border. It took them about 43 seconds to shimmy up and over.
“That’s like ‘American Ninja Warrior ‘ — I mean that’s some crazy stuff,” Cabrera said. “They get up over that wall in a hurry.”
Beyond old-fashioned technology like ladders, smugglers have been caught using a drone, a catapult, and a homemade cannon to launch drugs over the wall. Sinaloa Cartel boss Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman is infamous for tunneling beneath the wall, and the DEA reports that federal authorities have detected more than 75 cross-border smuggling tunnels in the last five years, mostly in California and Arizona.
But even the most imposing wall would do nothing to stop the vast majority of drugs from entering the U.S. According to the DEA’s 2015 National Drug Threat Assessment, Mexican cartels send “the bulk” of their drug shipments over the border through legitimate points of entry, hidden in vehicles or disguised as commercial freight. Tens of thousands of trucks and $1 billion in trade come across the U.S.-Mexico border daily, and there’s no way to thoroughly inspect every vehicle.
For people like Taylor, the woman who is stuck south of the wall in Texas, the frustration over the GOP’s fixation on the border fence is palpable. “To throw more money at it when we need it for education and so many other things, it would be ridiculous,” she said.
Taylor is no fan of Hillary Clinton and she doesn’t support allowing undocumented immigrants into the country, but she’s certain that a wall isn’t the solution to smuggling.
“Trump is talking about building a bigger wall,” Taylor said. “Then we’re going to have bigger ladders.” -
