Yeah CR is very expat friendly. In that region Belize & Panama are options too. In Africa I like Ghana which is welcoming to Black expats. Carib: Aruba, VI. Asia: Philippines, very affordable & most welcoming out of all the Asian countries I have visited being Black.

Well I've always said when my time comes, cremate me and put my ashes in the Atlantic to join those that chose the sea. I don't want my bones on this land if I'm not able to leave but I've been planning to be an ex-pat for a minute now.

Also not to diminish that these conflicts within are not serious & shouldn't be addressed. Elaine Brown, Angela Davis, even Huey Newton in Rev. Suicide, addressed the misogyny & anti-gay sentiments in Black power movements.

I'm older and somewhat stubborn but I've never felt like I have been above correction especially if it's a respectful convo. I'm not perfect I get in my moods sometimes but I appreciate this convo it's def. given me some insight on re-evaluating some views. That's how we grow and learn.

people or that line of thinking. You're right we are the products of what America made, we need to get back to our roots & culture our true selves. It's a struggle b/c we are dealing with IGT all of us. I fight against that internally all the time.

Well there is the New Afrikan movement that advocate that but I'm m a Pan-African so ultimately I'm not looking for some states to have, I think that is a fantasy that will never happen. I'd rather leave the US & live somewhere else. I respect peoples identities I don't believe in "curing"

& I'm not suggesting that they should put aside their identities - but we are oppressed first b/c of the color of our skin before anything else. It's always been that way & it will always be that way. A cop will shoot an effeminate Black man just as they would anyone other Black man.

No disagreement there but its also a 2-way street. How can we have unity when some people put whatever their thing is before being Black first? I see folks on here, social media, they got every flag, every pronoun, every thing they pro about but Pro-Black. I'm not saying they aren't oppressed
December 5, 2025 at 2:46 AM
I agree but as I said earlier as long as we put race 1st. I don't see any other common ground within our community to unite than that. Once we recognize that & who we should be fighting, only then can we address the other discriminations within. If we don't have that foundation, what do we have?
December 5, 2025 at 2:17 AM
No disagreement with that but we, as men, are viewed more of a threat than the Black woman. You don't think so? I'm not suggesting that sisters aren't oppressed by whites or that they don't face abuse from within by some brothers. That's been a problem in many Black power movements, I've seen it.
December 5, 2025 at 1:57 AM
I agree with you on that lack of unity 100 but I'm not sure its a myth. I think it is a coordinated effort to destroy the Black family by starting with targeting the Black man. We're talking about generations on top of generations of trauma passed down. So I don't understand how that is a myth.

the fight of our liberation - as long as they put their race first. Problem is, we got people putting everything else first before that & that's my issue I have.

African societies women held positions of power & great influence - even warriors). So everything in America is the opposite of our true selves and nature. The feminization of Black men started with Europeans. You know what they did to our brothers in Jamaica. Also I'll ride with ANYONE down for
December 5, 2025 at 1:34 AM
I understand, I'm sure there are but are those femme Black men viewed as a threat? I don't think the argument that Dr. Curry is making is macho vs not macho, it's a matter of power dynamics & control. If we are kept in inferior positions, which is purely Western (because in most pre-colonial

Are you sure this is legal? I know the original tradewars licenses are still being sold. There are people running servers now.

The Nobel Peace Prize became a sham to me when Obama won it. Every US president is de facto a war criminal to me & not deserving of it.

he's a racist patriarchal bully with financial access... thats as deep as he goes.

but the media and most Dem leadership are proving true to what Malcolm X once said — "if you are afraid to tell the truth then you don't even deserve freedom."

Didn't even know that about Diabolic. Just read the piece you wrote in 2016 about him. I saw Tech, Pen & him maybe 20 yrs ago? They did a set at a free show on osu campus. Guess I can't be too surprised. Was my 1st time hearing Pen though & he has skills I still remember that show to this day.
