Kelvin Darnell Martin

I ask myself why is it that rappers oftentimes name themselves after criminals. Is because the names of criminals already carries a certain notoriety or street fame in most cases?  50 Cent borrowed the his name from Kevin Darnell Martin  (July 24, 1964 – October 24, 1987.)  He was also known as 50 Cent. He was an American who grew up in the Bronx, New York but, later moved to Brooklyn, New York. He is primarily known as the inspiration for the rapper, 50 Cent.  Kelvin Martin was possibly known as '50 Cent' due to his reputation of being prepared to rob anyone, regardless of how much money they were carrying at the time. Another story is that it came from an incident when he entered a game of dice with a 50 cent stake and ended up walking away with $500. The n ickname  may also be an allusion to his physically tiny stature - he weighed only 120 pounds (54 kg) and his height was 5'2" (157 cm) He was shot on October 20, 1987 on the stairway of his girl

Dick Gregory speaks on NYPD Police Shooting Hoax, Bill Cosby, and Truth about the Sony Hack

Listen as he shares knowledge about things that are spoken about in the media but, aren't truly or fully comprehended. I'm gonna allow brother Dick Gregory to speak on it. 

Micanopy

Micanopy , known as Micco-Nuppe, Michenopah, Miccanopa, Moc-an-opa and Sint-Chakkee, which  means 'pond frequenter', as he must have spent a lot of time at the pond, probably meditating, particularly on the insurgence of the colonists, who wanted to suppress the aboriginal and indigenous people because CLEARLY, they (colonist) were disrespectful of nature, of life, of humanity. What can you expect from uncivilized barbaric slaves, murderers and thieves.  This is the second of wars for the natural people of the land against them.  Micanopy was a war leader in the Second Seminole Wars -  Check out his hair,  as they are locks.  Hair like lambs wool, skin like brass - copper. 

Nubia or Egypt?

For many years archaeologists and other scholars knew little about either the Egyptians or the Nubians. Then, in 1822, Jean-Franqois Champollion used the Rosetta Stone to decode the language of the ancient Egyptians. His work gave the world the key to understanding their written records. These writings, however, gave only the Egyptians' view of the Nubians. For nearly 150 years, most scholars believed that the Nubians were of little importance. It was not unt il the 1960's that archaeologists and scholars began to learn more about ancient Nubia. They have uncovered and studied artifacts and monuments that show that Nubia had a highly developed civilization. Now many scholars wonder which civilization, the Nubian or the Egyptian, affected the other more."

Paul Robeson

Paul Robeson was a famous African-American athlete, singer, actor, and advocate for the civil rights of people around the world. He rose to prominence in a time when segregation was legal in the United States, and Black people were being lynched by racist mobs, especially in the South. Born on April 9, 1898 in Princeton, New Jersey, Paul Robeson was the youngest of five children. His father was a runaway slave who went on to graduate from Lincoln University, and his mother came from an abolitionist Quaker family. Robeson's family knew both hardship and the determination to rise above it. His own life was no less challenging. In 1915, Paul Robeson won a four-year academic scholarship to Rutgers University. Despite violence and racism from teammates, he won 15 varsity letters in sports (baseball, basketball, track) and was twice named to the All-American Football Team. He received the Phi Beta Kappa key in his junior year, belonged to the Cap & Skull Honor Society, and gradu

In Regards to the Proclamations

Most people are in shock, or otherwise in confusion, regarding the facts surrounding the recent Proclamations made by the various Mayors, Public servants and offices of Public servants in various Territories of North America.  Surely the research was done prior to making these proclamations as an 'Act of Full Faith and Credit', in accord with  Article IV, Section 1  of the American Constitution FOR the United States of America, and in accord with all true and divine records regarding the human family.      . Those who are the aboriginal and indigenous people -- Moors, which means first navigators as an adjective, and first people as a Noun.  Clearly they are the first to navigate on the waters on the earth plane, after navigating in the waters of their mothers womb, and being cut from her nav-el to become a navigating el upon the earth plane – no one escapes that process, no matter what they may choose to believe.        . Those who have been coined as negroes, c

Shunned AmEricans

So-called African Americans have become “shunned Americans” on our own homeland, despite the fact that America is our habitat.  Extreme and vicious measures have been taken to eliminate us in systematic acts of genocide based primarily on slander, error, and Hollywood misconceptions. It has not been an easy task to re-establish ourselves as the first people of America, because television, falsified   his -story, buried documentation, and the public fool/school system has made lying, supplanting, usurpers appear to be valid truth tellers and the discredited, but actual, claim holders appear to be lying identity thieves. Burying this truth appears to be a perpetually ongoing effort.   Even so, although it is not well known, the fact that so-called Black people were here first, is a thoroughly documented and well established fact, nonetheless. The Americas were full of melanin rich, copper colored, chocolate brown people, of the Negroid phenotype, when the first Caucasians and

Definition of Matriach Websters 1910 International Dictionary

Ma'tri-arch'y   (ma'tri'ar'ki),  n.; pl.   A state or stage of social evolution in which deescent is reckoned only in the female line, all children belonging to the mother's clan.  Such a system increases the mother's social and political importance, making her the head of the family and the  guardian of religious rites  and traditions.  Hence, with many writers matriarchy means not only descent reckoned through the female line ( called uterine descent, or cognation ), but also rulership by woman.   Others, however, discriminate the rights and customs characteristic of  uterine descent , as mother-right ( adaptation of G. Mutterrrecht ), from the political or domestic supremacy of woman, known as gynecocracy, or gynocracy, " rulership by women, " or metrocracy, " rulership by mothers ." Matriarchy in the narrow sense (that is, as "mother-right") is found  among many primitive peoples ; whether it ever existed in the broader

A Number Of Ways To Clean Out And Balance

There are a number of ways to clean out and balance. Several have already been mentioned by others. The key for maintaining this is in an intentional lifestyle. Here are a few things you can do directly to speed up cleansing and balancing and a few tips for ongoing maintenance. The physical body is important (obviously). Water is a powerful element that works in many ways. Stand under a light, natural waterfall, with a straight back, close your eyes and allow yourself to feel the sensation of the water flowing through you washing each individual molecule. Give it time to fill you and wash away tensions. Negative ionization will promote health and balanced emotions. You can get a very light effect similar to this in a cold shower. Laying down in a shallow cool stream on a rock with the water flowing from head to feet has a similar effect. An additional advantage is that, if you can secure yourself effectively, the horizontal position allows more relaxing release and puts you in a

Barbary Pirates

The problem of slavery received a new meaning when white American sailors were enslaved by the so-called Barbary pirates of North Africa. In 1785, the American schooner Maria, sailing off the coast of Portugal, was boarded by Algerian pirates. Its captain and five crew members were taken prisoner. Then a second American ship, the brig Dauphin, was captured, and its 15-member crew was taken to Algiers and enslaved. Several Americans were put to work as domestic servants; another was forced to care for the Dey of Algiers's lion. Much of the time the hostages were kept in leg irons, chained to pillars, or locked in a rat-infested prison. Six American captives died of bubonic plague. One went insane. During the late eighteenth century, three small North African states--Algiers, Tripoli, and Tunis--preyed on merchant ships sailing in the Mediterranean, seizing their crews and cargoes and holding both for ransom. Many European countries paid tribute to the Barbary States to ensure

Educator And Social Worker

     Sue Bertha Coleman's mother was working as a cook for a Huntsville, Alabama family when she decided her daughter should have a college education, something few Alabama women received at the turn of the century.      Coleman graduated from Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee. She began her career as principal of a Tennessee Coal and Iron Company (TCI) school at Muscoda, a large ore mining camp near Bessemer, Alabama. At the end of her third year, she remained on the company's payroll to conduct social work, Coleman was designated as a community supervisor in charge of social services for black miners and their families. Initiative and dedication set her apart from her peers. In 1918, she borrowed $300 from a bank, left her husband in charge of their children, and went to Chicago to study with Jane Addams, the most noted social worker of the day.      On her return, Coleman took over a schedule of regular weekly duties at the "Colored Community House" tha

The Answers

"The answers to all your questions will be found when it is that you seek light. If you continue to seek light, answers will be shown to you when you are ready for them. Take a deep look back into the past and don’t ever assume you know anything other than the fact that you seek truth."

Scholar And Educator

       M.P. Burley attended grammar and high school in his hometown of Macon, Georgia. His love of learning guided him to Ballard Normal School, where he excelled in a broad range of subjects, including Latin. Even though he was an outstanding scholar, Burley could find no work in his chosen field as an educator, so he took a job at a soap factory until a better opportunity came along.        In the Fall of 1903 he received a teaching job, but son concluded that his own education was incomplete. Burley then entered Atlanta University, where he finished college while supporting himself as a photographer during the Summers.        After graduation in 1909, he was appointed professor of English, Science and Latin at Homer College. Six years later, he left his native state to become Professor of Science at Miles College in Birmingham, Alabama. Burley's special talent for teaching was recognized by his promotion to President of Miles College in 1927.       Never satisfied with

Maker Of Musicians

       John T. ("Fess") Whatley was a young child living in Tuscaloosa, Alabama when he heard a passing circus street band. From that day on, he wanted to play the cornet. As a teenager, he entered Birmingham's Toggle Institute and joined the band.        Long before Toggle days, Whatley had been exploring a new style of music called Jazz and developing his own soft sound that became known as the "Fess Whatley" tone.        In 1917, at age 20, Whatley became an instructor at Industrial (now Baker) High School in the Smithfield neighborhood. Here he organized the city's first black brass band. At this time, his students nicknamed him "Fess," short for "professor."        Whatley was a strict disciplinarian. With exceptional skill, he inspired and trained his students. During the 1930s and 1940s, big band leaders in Northern cities such as Lionel Hampton and Duke Ellington needed a musician. They knew that a Whatley student cou

Surgeon And Soldier

       Arthur M. Brown was born in Raleigh, North Carolina in 1867. His grandmother was one of that city's early public school teachers, and his parents made sure that he received a good education.        At age 24, Brown first opened his medical practice in Bessemer, Alabama, later moving to Cleveland, Ohio and Chicago, Illinois before establishing himself as a surgeon in Birmingham, Alabama in 1894. Dr. Brown was involved in a variety of civic activities, including service as chairman of the Alabama Prison Improvement Board. His wife, Nellie, also served her community as a case worker for the Children's Aid Society.        When the Spanish-American War broke out in 1898, Brown organized a company of infantrymen and offered the group's service to the Alabama governor. Although his group was not activated, Brown was commissioned a First Lieutenant and served as a surgeon in Santiago, Cuba throughout the war.        Upon his return to Birmingham, Alabama his medical

ON RACISM

Art Blair shared Bev Collier's note: On Racism. Bev Collier wrote a new note: ON RACISM. Because racism does not affect us white folk in the same way as it does people of color, it is easy to underestimate the pain and suffering that they endure on a daily basis. Our white privilege allows us to place it back on a remote shelf at anytime and ignore it. White folks don't have to talk about racism. It does not directly affect us. We don't have to fear that our sons will be arr ested, sent to prison or even killed for a minor action. Our character is not judged by the color of our skin. White people need to look beyond our privilege and learn to listen to and strive to understand those most affected by racism. We have no business judging or instructing people of color on racism. They know full well what racism is and how it affects their lives and the lives of their children and grandchildren! If we sincerely care about racism in this country we need to accept that

Contractor And "Sportin' Man"

Then Not much is known about T. C. Windham prior to his arrival in Birmingham, Alabama in 1910's: only that he came from Arkansas, where he had substantial business interests. it is known that he was already a man of considerable wealth who had great skills as a builder and contractor. At the time of his arrival, many of the city's prominent black professional and white-collar workers lived in Smithfield, a community just to the west of the Birmingham, Alabama city center. Windham soon bought a block of real estate in Smithfield and built a two-story brick mansion that reflected not only his wealth, but also his business abilities. Located on Eighth Avenue North, it featured the best contemporary craftsmanship, including elaborately carved woodwork, stained glass, and fine furnishings. Working with his brother, R. L. Windham, Windham went on to build many other residences in the area. But it is the churches and commercial projects that now highlight the Windham const

The Democrats

Let's get one thing straight!!! The Democrats didn't lose badly on Tuesday because of low black voter turn out. They lost because of the inherent conflict between equality and white privilege. This conflict has existed since the beginning of the nation. When many whites hear affordable health care, reduced prison populations, and raising the minimum wage, they hear someone doing something for black people. Despite the fact that these are good polices, they simply don't resonate in the minds of people with deep seeded racial animus who are invested in privilege and inequality.

Slave Owners Feared Baptism Would Make Slaves Free

Legislation was passed in several colonies, beginning in 1667 in Virginia, stipulating that baptism would not change slaves’ legal status.  This led to an increase in missionary activities to slaves because conversion did not imply emancipation. Short lived do to slave revolts. Slave owners regarded the substantial time required for religious instruction as uneconomical Slave owners argued that slaves were intellectually incapable of understanding the subtleties of Christian doctrine Slave owners were uncomfortable with the concept of spiritual equality between master and slave Spiritual equality would call into question the enslavement of fellow Christians Slave owners feared that conversion would make slaves more difficult to control and perhaps precipitate insurrection Some missionaries attempted to counter this fear by arguing that conversion would make slaves more docile and industrious. This was short lived after the enslaved revolts.

DEATH WISH 101: Four (4) Reasons Black Men Should Avoid Drugs and Alcohol at all Cost.

You ever wonder why hip-hop music is the genre that is most uniquely focused on big, white corporations paying black men to brag about how high and drunk they are? You think this is a coincidence? Sorry, but it’s not. There is a reason why an artist rapping about smoking and drinking will usually get a deal before a rapper who spits about being intelligent and hard-working. Much of this is because there are people who have a vested interest in seeing black men weak and easily built for incarceration or execution. To understand where I’m coming from, think about the actions of a pimp. When a pimp is seeking to control his hooker, one of the things he might do is keep his “employee” high, dependent, thoughtless and off-balance. If he/she needs their pimp for the drug and has a frazzled mind, the pimp will always have control. So, the point here is that America has been working to consistently pimp the black man (slavery was the ultimate form of pimping), and one of the ways they
