From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating myself to whites.'

From Dreams of My Father : 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mother's race.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'It remained necessary to prove which side you were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name names.'

From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, Du Bo is and Mandela.'



And FINALLY the Most Damming one of ALL of them!!!



From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'



maybe this is an eye opener...these are quotes from his two books

true about nothing on tv....and we need rain.....

yogurt, grapes, apples, and mint tea...

great video...thanks for sharing the link

good morning....tea for me....

Congrats....hope things work out for the two of you...

Not really....I go behind people and straighten up the mess they have made on peoples accounts....

Love a good old thunder and lightening storm...

yeah, why is it that has to be one of the questions that some guys always ask....do we ask what size your c--- is? (well, some girls might I guess)...

depends on what kind of "deal"...dating, not so much

but business, certainly would

maybe just to have someone to date????

margaritas for me tonight....

real over Bob anyday....

you are going to have enough to deal with...you don't need the added stress of wondering if he is or isn't going to be around to help....if he is truly interested in being a part of the baby's life, he will make the effort...

Best of luck to you....

A lot...they will tell me the truth whether I want to hear it or not....and most of the time, they keep me out of trouble.

sometimes it does...sometimes it can be intimidating...when you look at the "friends" and all of them are very beautiful young women, it can sometimes scare someone that might be less attractive...but on the other hand if the profile was welcoming, I suck it up and send a hello email anyway.

I can now that I'm work from work....

good morning everyone...hope your Saturday is blessed.

that is so nice....you just described so many moms...

a reliable car....that is good on gas mileage
