he said it was like an opulent steak house, black, everything, black maitre d, black people's down, black waiters. and he was like okay, cool. so he got there. the maitre d came up to him, said, hey, doordash. and he's like, doordash. i like doordash. i'm no offense, the doordash people, but i think i'm nora. he's a oh, no. and said, now i know like we've been talking about on, you know, i felt some of away right but he said he sat he said that the people they took with them, he sold them as a norm actually to eat a steak. and so he had a great time. and he said, i worked this my show. and there's another story came out in 2023. many people might jon hamm, who's an actor who's famous actor, white guy, he was on mad men. he was a titular character on mad men. jon hamm in atlanta. and thanks to mayor many years ago as head the bureau of cultural affairs right. there's there's a tv film industry, georgia center in atlanta. and jon was here filming and he said that being in new york, in l.a., two extraordinarily diverse cities. so i could go to a fancy restaurant any given time. and those res

it's incredible how many just black newspapers black. if you go to an hbcu, you'll see there's an old building on every campus that was built in 1936 after a mob it down there like 1910. like everything that black people have ever done has been that someone has attempted to set it on fire and. the remarkable thing is that we keep building it right and that it is like out of those ashes we built other things. and to me that is the positive hope that. i think this book has not just the trauma, but the fact that of all of things that they've done, they still were ineffective at stopping black people, you know? yeah i hell, i say i want to ask one more question and then take questions from you also, you know, get your courage up, get get your question ready, your hands ready to come up. i want to order off the menu for a second because one of my favorite pieces that you ever did was the the wealthiest black characters of all time. i love that piece. i'm like, why don't i think about it? so i can really can you talk about like where you think

blacks were armed whites. and looking at the import of colored officers training, black soldiers and importance of the uniform and what that service and training meant to black self-defense, to the self esteem of young black men was the force behind charles young's decision to not only want to work wilberforce, but also wanting to black? soldiers in liberia and continuing his service at wilberforce on multiple occasions because he was committed to racial uplift, he was committed to pushing back against the barrage of negativity and hatred put forth that african americans going to see on a daily basis living in jim crow america. so this is his commitment. but there is another person i was told that i'm too hard on flipper. i'm not saying that i favor charles young or something. but want to kind of provide opposite to charles young, and that is going be henry flipper. henry flipper, the first african american graduate from west point. he was very proud of that uniform. he's very, you know, dapper young man from

black black black. for me if they want to, they can continue to come for black people in the city this they want to. but this is why it is so important when we recognize our history in this city, that we remember that. because that was not so far away. just like many of us are descendants of slaves, there are descendents of slave owners that are still very present in some instances and just know that we got god on our side. [cheers and applause] and we going to continue to fight. and we're going to continue to lift up our voices and i'm going to continue to lead this city, to the best of my ability to take care of all people. and never ever ever ever apologize for representing the black community in the way that i do. [cheers and applause] thank you! [cheers and applause] >> and i'm suppose to follow that? say it loud? say it loued? first of all, i want to recognize all the beautiful people here today. black people give yourself a hand tonight. [cheers and applause] every year we have the opportunity to

why are we still using the synonym black? there are no black people. really take hold of the narrative. i don't know if people looked up the color black in the dictionary. why would you want to call your children that? it means darkness, void. that is part of discrimination. we are not black people. we are brown. guest: the term black came about because people wanted to empower themselves. negro is a made-up term that was made up by black supremacists for people who came from multiple ethnic groups. africa is the most diverse continent. when africans were taken to america, you are mixing tribes with no genetic relationship other than all being negro. the idea of whiteness and blackness existed in america. it did not exist before the 16th century. black people in europe were different ethnicities. the idea of whiteness did not exist until this country was founded. when europeans came here and decided to enslaved africans who spoke different languages from each other, they could not communicate with each other let alone communicate with their so-called o

it was an 80% black neighborhood. a small number of white americans who were the people who did not fly out of that area because they could not afford to. i think a lot of people perceive black neighborhoods as a rundown and impoverished. that is not where i grew up. i grew up in an overwhelmingly black suburb. i live in one now. i think thewhite americans havel black americans are impoverished, that all black americans are suffering and struggling and that is not true. to the extent that you do have suffering and economic struggle in the black community, some of it is manufactured. he justaó described going back o his community and a black person that he played football with, they both played football, theye had a job and that young men did not. that is because of discrimination. while a lot of people are uncomfortable talking about the fact that we do have racial discrimination in hiring, we do. it is a fact of life. rather than address that, we have sought conservation -- we have side conversations. dei is diversit

zelensky sold ukraine's fertile black soil her future at black rock.krainian should pray for russia's victory, because only... that it will be blackrock who will be engaged in developing budgets, well, he will put the remains of the ukrainian infrastructure under his control, what else will be there - arable land will most likely be bought up for priceless ones, and so on, that is, of course, he will still make money on it. robert kennady jr. says directly: black rock has already bought ukraine under the hammer. according to the politician, the ukrainian authorities have sold at least a third of their land, and the buyers were dupon, cargill and monsanto. they are all owned by the corporation. and then in december, president joe biden issued a contract for the restoration of ukraine, and who do you think got this contract? larry finka, many already call him briefly, is the owner of ukraine. companies controlled by black rock bought half of the lands of ukraine, and almost all of chernozem, half of the strategic enterprises also already belong to the co

at the spring meadow, as greenwood championed black independence black entrepreneurship, black strength. mary jones, parrish, a local typing teacher, was one of the first people to call it the -- wall. but more than riches was you, parrish greenwood was, quote the wonderful cooperation, observed our people just this terrain. but this terrain, the agreement it cultivated, it was contested neighborhood success starts on the in the minds of many white oklahomans. oklahoma, at its founding a declared that black ambition and intellect were at odds with the white agenda. as a rule, -- are failures as lawyers, doctors and other professions. william murray, a future governor, governor of oklahoma, said of the state's constitutional convention. it is an entirely false notion that the -- can rise to the equal of the white man. not long after murray speech, the state showed a show to segregate train cars, even phone booths in tulsa, interracial baseball games were banned. harper hateful rhetoric and dehumanizing laws inevitably lead to violence and so it was in these united states during the 19 te

black person was difficult. that that alone is a massive indicator of how far the country not to mention the fact that we did a two term black president which most people even in 2007 didn't think was possible because the country was too racist. and yet it happened, which apparently proved some level of progress that couldn't have happened in 1980. and so i think i think we've clearly come a huge way. there's really no level of office at this point that a black person hasn't held. there are black ceos of fortune 500 companies and people don't even experience that as as exceptional or strange at this point point. and you turn on tv, you see black people for a now occupying every position of authority, respect, possibly imagine. and again, it doesn't even strike me as weird anymore, which is the ultimate indicator of normalization and progress. and so i think there are people that really want to cling to of the past and admit that certain victories have actually been achieved. and that's an unfortunate thing. but

black men in the 1850s. it is meetings with african-americans in 1864 that push lincoln on this issue. he begins working behind scenes to push for black suffrage. a day after, i believe the second meeting took place with this delegation, lincoln sent a letter to the governor of louisiana, where he said that black men should have the right to vote. he, for instance, those who are very and especially those who have fought gallantly in the ranks. he said they would probably help in some trying time to come to keep the jewel of liberty, the family of freedom. in other words, black voters will help the nation survive during reconstruction, which might ugly. and it did. and required black voters, officeholders to help push the nation forward. all right. i think it's my favorite time. more questions. he's a great one. this is an excellent segway. dr. white, the letters seem so eloquent. american history has taught slaves were not taught to read and write. who taught them to read and write? it's a wonderful. literac

why are we still using the synonym black? there are no black people.ake hold of the narrative. i don't know if people looked up the color black in the dictionary. why would you want to call youi. that is part of discrimination. we are not black people. we are brown. guest: the term black came about because people wanted to empower themselves. negro is a made-up term that was made up by black supremacists for people who came from multiple ethnic groups. africa is the most diverse continent. when africans were taken to america, you are mixing tribes with no genetic relationship other than all being negro. the idea of whiteness and blackness existed in america. it did not exist before the 16th century. black people in europe were different ethnicities. the idea of whiteness did not exist until this country was founded. when europeans came here and decided to enslaved africans who spoke different languages from each other, they could not communicate with each other let alone communicate with their so-called owners. they designated white and black as a way

not for black. no, not for black women. what happens when the purse clutch happens, when black body is we know what happens when the elevator door opens and, the people, you know, on the elevator see a black body andth. we know that what we don't know is that being gendered as female n against that. so it's real that in many of the lives the context is often when the police have been called to help right and they a black body that is never seen as a damsel in distress, not seen as someone who is f seen someone who has needs, but seen as michelle quso was, who didn't utr a word but the police said that the look on her face gave him the sense that he and his half dozen police officers were at risk. so just recognize that we have only a part the story about how how blackness is and in it is a risk factor for generating violence framed as defense of self or framed as defense of others and then recognizing whav that means terms of the data. so black women are the group that is most likely to be unarmed when they are killed of al

in your introduction to the state of black progress, you state that the black america the black americans have really arrived in the height of our cultural prominence, such areas as politics entertain, ernment and academics. yet many blacks are suffering. there is still a deep seated feeling among, many black americans that. we just don't have an equal opportunity succeed in such areas as employment. education. why it that so many african-americans, in your opinion are still suffering 60 years after passage of the rights act and nearly 60 years after the enactment of president lyndon johnson's great society. why are african-americans suffering still? i two reasons in my opinion. one a government intervention the sixties creating an environment of where we concentrated poverty areas that now we considered distress. there are 8700 of them in our country out of a country of about 45,000 zip code. so we that 20% are sick. and the reason that they're sick is because they're polluted politically or leadership keeps them sick. they have built a narrative that their problems are somebody else's f

zelensky sold the fertile black soil of ukraine and its future to the black rock company. ukrainian should pray for russia's victory, because only in this way can their country truly survive as a sovereign state. shame on zelensky - he wrote. ukraine and who do you think received this contract? black rock? larry finka, many already call him briefly, is the owner of ukraine. companies controlled by black rock bought half of the lands of ukraine, and almost all of the black soil, half of the strategic enterprises also already belong to the corporation. the second secret of black rock is close friendship with the government, although formally black rock is called the government. the threads of larry fink and his brainchild are already so intertwined that go figure out who really works for whom. over the years, the company has hired many former government officials for senior positions. in turn, the company’s employees are also actively moving towards high offices. this allows you to infiltrate various government bodies and lobby your interests, as well as receive classified i

looked at the state of the black family after slavery.ed at six plantations. about 75% of all slave families had a man and a woman raising children. the nuclear family continued for a hundred years after that. in 1930 to 1940, when racism was enshrined in law, we have the highest marriage rate, elderly people could walk safely their communities without fear of being assaulted by their grandchildren. children were not shot in their cribs. but all of this changed in the 1960's when the government, after the civil rights act was passed, and the government entered and it decimated those institutions that created railroads and hotels and schools, those what we call mediating structures that stand in between individuals, they were decated by the 1960's. when you separate work from income, when mothersaid -- when they had children, you know, so you -- that's when the crime rate began to soar, at the point of the 1960's. until today. because you've got the destruction of the family, the core values that used to define black america. that's what's

freed black slaves at this point. you're looking at about a over 4 million individuals in the south at the time. now we're attitudes changing among white americans in the north, in the south, or was and was there a difference in how white americans in the north, in the south were viewing freed black slaves? did you■ç■) time determine it? it is determined by time and space. like many things. right. so there is percept tions of african-americans that are positive in the north and individuals in the north who see that. but there's also discrimination and violence and and racism in the north and in the south. there is certain violence, intimidation, racism, discrimination in the south. there are members of the north that are coming down, people from the north or coming down to aid the african-american population. but there are people that consider it something that they do not want or see it as competition in wages in others. so it is mixed in many ways. but the bottom line is that the african-american population is is pr

fleet, the black sea of the fleet are on fire, destroyed and sent to the bottom of the same black sea flagship, to the russian guards missile cruiser moscow, which is already enough. the time from april 22 rests in quotation marks, of course, at the bottom of the black sea, in the northwestern part of the black sea equator, by the way, it is important to note that the russians no longer dare to particularly push forward with their ships from zarog torkhankut, this is the western part of crimea occupied by it , because they understand the risks, well , in fact, all the ships, carriers of naval missiles of the caliber type, they took away the guest territory of crimea, relocated closer to the non-russian one. well, actually the ukrainian army i have already proven many times that the russian fleet cannot exist in the black sea, it is heavier than water, well, it’s just physics, so without lyrics, just physics, it can’t exist like this, and why, and i’m sorry, yes, yes, definitely , this fact is confirmed, just as russian planes often fall to the ground, because they are much heavier tha

because many many black community said they would not be moved and rebound after the the national blackchamber league had a four years after the massacre and peek as a business community was in the 1940. and it was urban renewal that causedv2 decline. yes, republic a regulateses are something we are talking about and working to figure out how best we can try to repair some of the damage that was wrought on the 1921 massacre. and some of the damages that have been done. but i wanted to ask that are you familiar with dr. fran is wilson and her theories on racism in america dynamic is it all stems from where the d.n.a. on black people is more dominant in terms of the skin complexion and plays a major role in racism. i am a believer in the fact that racism in america has grown suc. when you put all of that together, i think the of helping america become better than it is to delve intoycholog. >> i understand racism is important. race is a social concept, which is to say that race is creation. it's often said■r8 there's more biological differences within so-called racists between so-called r

sea, but on the map behind my head you can see that this is the center of the black sea , and the blacks small, yes, it’s 501 km straight from sevastopol to the bosporus, and we’re still in our pre... before the beginning of the great war, after the occupation of crimea there in 17-18 , drew these circles on maps, yes, the fact is that all missile complexes, coastal ones, which are in service with the russian of the black sea fleet in the crimea, even with the smallest ranges, even the oldest ones, they covered the entire territory. seas, including the coast of romania, including the coast of turkey, and so on, that is, they tried to create, well, there is a special term, a zone of prohibited access, yes, where is the entire complex of weapons that they have concentrated there, and this includes anti-aircraft s-400 , crimea was the first to receive, and coastal complexes bastion, and bal, and a bunch of iskanders. they drove there, that is , there was a lot of this missile component, which allowed them to really control theoretically on the maps the entire water area of ​​the black sea,

and in genuine unemployment rate for, for black business, a for black folks, black businesses supporting h b. c, use. and we all were elevated. as a result, the economic quality that we had, we were energy independence. we had the support of the black families and others who even make their food. so there are a lot of variety of different black people. we're not in unison when it comes to having a one say, what i will say is this president trouble getting gym shoes or reaching out or it did not offend anyone in the room that i spoke with. the matter of fact, my husband was an agreement that made up charges and made up criminal activity, and the charges that are pending against them that have not even been litigated or prosecuted by anyone else in american history is certainly something that black people can relate to. and that is that i can't speak for all black people. i don't believe your other guests can either, but i can speak for me and the people who are in that room. we were very supportive and we were very supportive for the reason that we had a better life under present donald t
