Black Culture Discussion Thread

Went to see Dr Umar speak here in Brooklyn yesterday.
VERY POWERFUL.

He questioned the march this weekend but said out of respect he would go to see if Minister Farrakhan had a "black agenda" to introduce, and he was holding back from judgement before witnessing such plan or lack thereof.

Attacked the structure of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. The idea of equating our problems with LBGT, "illegal immigrants", and feminism. Highlighted the fact NONE of these groups had to prove they were HUMAN before asking for rights etc.

Spoke about his school. It was just alotta REAL ****. I don't wanna reveal too much cause I'm sure it's devils lookin for info on the speech since they couldn't get in (tho I didn't see any tryin to do so)

Sitting next to a 70 year-old sista that looked maybe 45 at best. Melanin on fleek.
I went to the  3 Kings lecture over the summer, very powerful.

Is #NT headed to the march this weekend? I might drive down to DC later today for it.
 
I didn't see a thread on the march this weekend but safe travels to everyone coming here to DC this weekend. I'll be down there today and tomorrow.
 
Wish I could attend, found out about it too late and couldn't rearrange my schedule accordingly. Cats in my hometown got a bus and are going down which is dope and great in terms of supporting it.

Should've gotten one of those water backpacks :lol:, but that's smart to have the water, I would suggest an umbrella too and some comfortable shoes if possible. Enjoy it and be safe bro, events like these bring out the snakes masking themselves as good Samaritans down for the cause
 
 
 
Is Megabus an option for a trip back?

We need as many folks there are possible.

Do it bro!

Facts appreciate that. lol water backpack would of been clutch. Yeah I peeped the weather prob do a rainproof jacket for sure. prepared to have my legs to feel like noodles lol gonna b on my feet all day tomorrow.
 
I stay in MD outside of DC, so please feel free and don't hesitate to hit me up about anything while you're out here. Would love to get up possibly with some of y'all and have a thread session in real life. Let's really use this collection of so many of our people who MAY have similar mindsets/awareness in regards to the cause to actually build something tangible. There was a million man march 20 years ago, and in 2015 we're right here.... So let's learn from that and make sure this isn't just an oversized "concert" or lecture.
