As long as you educate yourself on how to spot bias in writing and reporting, you’ll never be conditioned. About 54% of U.S. adults read below a sixth-grade level (PIAAC study). That’s not shame—it’s reality. And it’s why truth is so easy to twist.

@BlackAndNative1 This is horrible. We do we patronize these type of businesses based on how they treat certain demographics.

Let’s add some context and history to this topic

I think Joe Jackson is a model representation of how some black fathers disciplined their children in the black community.

————————————————
Topic: Black children and physical discipline across generations.

Intergenerational trauma and cultural transmission of survival behaviors.

————
Silent Era - Joe Jackson was born 63 years after slavery

-this era used extremely strict physical discipline

————
Baby Boomers - Michael Jackson 1958

-parenting disciplining styles often remained rooted in older, punitive systems.

————
GenX—-caught the end of this type of discipline.

- cultural shift toward questioning how to accurately discipline your child without physical punishment was beginning.

———
Millennial —-the focus change from heavy discipline and focused on black mental health

———
Generation Z — Gentle parenting

- discipline focuses more on consequences and rewards through communication.

———
Generation A —Gentle parenting

- co -regulation is taught and not fear based.

Lastly, I’m not making any excuses, but I want you to research that on your own so that you can understand.

What I understand is that your generation can’t imagine the type of discipline that we went through.

We were beat with tree switches, rubber shoes, extension cords, and leather belts. However, we are survivors and we need to unpack oral stories & physical abuse in African- American history.

@icespice Ice Spice — please get training on how to de-escalate. You could’ve been killed. I get the popping off verbally but people are unpredictable. Get your paper boo-boo, but be wise. Live a long life with wisdom. #Auntie #blackgirlmagic

@Omowale99949437 Could you explain what you’re talking about? Thank you.

[Mamisi @MamisiGordon]

@XBlackZeusX @BlkImmigrants @WithoutHistory @Tasetireloaded2 I’m not clapping back at either side because I don’t want to go back-and-forth with people.

My clapping back looks a little different.
That’s why I shared the chart. It’s not about calling anyone out; it’s about giving context.

Hi there, I’ve been enjoying reading this page. I come in peace but I see where you’re going, but there is a different genetic makeup of Africans that experience colonialism versus the transatlantic slave trade.

The transatlantic slave, trade and colonialism produced genetic diversity.

Chattel Slavery: widespread forced mixing and diaspora.

Transatlantic slave trade dropped Africans off in Mexico, Brazil,and other Latin countries

Colonialism often hierarchical with limited mixing, heavy indigenous populations remaining. The French = Haiti —-Britain = Jamaica 80 to 90% Genetically are almost 100% African

Africans dropped off in the Caribbean in general. The smaller islands genetically will have more European and a heavy influx of south Asian. British, French, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese genetics.

Scientifically, we all have African DNA and there’s no differenc, but our genetic makeup could be different based on, colonialism, and the transatlantic slave trade.

I do agree that the black immigrant rhetoric needs to be toned down. Secondly, I do believe that there ARE some issues between immigrants, black immigrants, and black Americans.

____________________________

All you have to do is study American history 🇺🇸

Create Side-by-Side Timeline: Black Civil Rights progression vs. Immigration Policies (1800s–2026)
_______________________________

(1865 )emancipation proclamation, abolishment of slavery

Immigration: Post-Civil War: Massive European immigration migration, esp. Irish, Italians, Germans.

_______________________________

Brown v. Board of Education (1954)
Civil Rights Act (1964)
Voting Rights Act (1965)

- Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 abolishes immigration quotas

_________________________________

There was an influx of immigration so that immigrants could compete with black labor, farm labor, black businesses & education etc

Instead of asking if Tariq Nasheed is good or bad for the Black community …————————————————————Why are we undermining the community as if they aren’t capable of independent, critical thought? —————————————————���—— This the journey of the learner & teacher And HEY 👋 if it sparks interest, there is clear value in engaging some of his theories. It doesn’t require full agreement————————————————————-. What’s more important is having the ability to remain objective even if you disagree.

American history is American history. There’s no eraser.

This is an old argument —-as it relates to African Americans history +American history.

We can’t be selective of what American history we choose to honor, and yet be dismissive of dark American history.

The victim finger pointing would be insulting or considered antisemitic to a person that experienced the holocaust or from a descendent of a holocaust survivor.

My father is a decorated veteran. Both Black - American men and women served in World War I +World War II and were not treated as respectable decorated veterans after the war.

Is that victim blaming or is that just facts?

Vote for who you want but do not be dismissive nor ERASE American history regardless if it’s the transatlantic slave trade, chattel slavery for 400+ years, the revolutionary war, emancipation proclamation, July 4th, voting rights, the trail of tears, women’s rights, lgbtq rights. etc.

American history is American history.

Civil rights reform shouldn’t be selective

But the question remains: who gets prioritized?

When we talk about civil rights, family, grief, and reparations, I don’t just hear policy—I hear my mother’s trauma. Her son, my brother, Kenneth Anderson Jr., was killed on 10-10- 2021 by Texas sheriffs—not ICE.

He was tased 12 + times within 7 minutes and denied EMS while handcuffed inside a squad car on a hot, humid summer night in Houston, Texas.

That level of force was ultimately justified, and our American family was left without accountability.

I support justice for immigrants who have been harmed in this country.

But we cannot expand justice for one group while leaving long-standing injustices unresolved for another.

Justice must be comprehensive.

@PatriotXV11 @MeghanMcCain Incorrect —-dive deeper and fact check. Most political podcasts are paid pundits. And the memorial was politicized pageantry. It did not give her good look. This is wrong, but it’s all about public image.

[Mamisi @MamisiGordon]

We should respect officers of the law, but lack of respect does not excuse excessive force. A person’s trauma response, or mental illness may explain noncompliance, but it does not justify being dragged from a car by the neck over a traffic ticket nor being thrown on the ground.————————————————De-escalation training should be mandatory because officers routinely interact with people in distress, and not everyone will comply in a calm or orderly way.

[Mamisi @MamisiGordon]

@AlBuffalo2nite We should respect officers of the law. This is excessive force.

🚨 BREAKING

[Mamisi @MamisiGordon]

@Georgesantos @TaraBull SHE is serious, because what we fail to fully acknowledge is that financial illiteracy has reached epidemic proportions in the US. Americans are conditioned into consumer behavior — work, eat out, home, and REPEAT the cycle through takeout or food delivery.

It is a rat race.

[Mamisi @MamisiGordon]

@TaraBull 1. This is how most Americans live. 2. À roommate that’s not a psycho would be extremely helpful. Look for nurses or college students. No males. 3. Time management/schedule a to-do list 20 minutes a day. 4. Saturday rest get up at 12. Sunday is a free day.
