Educated Sistas…Stop Seeking Validation from these Money Loving Corporations
Yet again, I read in Wall Street Journal and Forbes magazine about educated sistas complaining about diversity and inclusion in the workplace lol…oh boy… I did a video about this topic earlier this year, where other sistas were front and center in the biggest business magazines in the world, whining about not having a safe space to succeed in the workplace…oh my…really people lol? I even read where one PhD sista complained that because she has a PhD in social studies or something like that, that she should be making the same money as a white guy with a PhD in STEM.

Workplace Racism-Ready to Quit and Start a Business? WAIT! Talk 2 Me First
Her child was like, under 5 yrs old or something like that. Her friends and family encouraged her to save up some money, quit, and start her own business. She hesitated for some time, but after something at work was the last straw, she took that leap of faith and started her own business. I think it was either beauty or fashion related, I forget. And some of you know how I feel about those passion fields lol. But she seemed smart as she was telling me her story.

Shouldn’t Juneteenth Be About More Than Slavery?
The most damaging outcome of the segregation laws was that the fake good cops in government started pushing for desegregation laws. Some of our ancestors knew this was a trap so they resisted desegregation as we were doing fine as a nation state within a racist nation. Why get too close to the enemy? But the naïve ones among our people gave in to the socialist strategy and fought for desegregation.
The result? Instead of being an independent thinking state within a state, forging our own political and economic destiny, we all loaded up the moving truck and went from the Republican party to the Democratic party. How has that turned out? We don’t even keep score. Our median incomes and net worth, which was already struggling in the 1930s through 1960s, stayed flat, not far from zero, till this day. That’s a dam shame.
