@katSam93 @Fly_Sistah This was my question too.

Your government is testing what you'll tolerate and a lot of us are tolerating way way WAY too much.

[Books Behind Borders @MHTruthUltra]

I honestly hate that we've normalized the idea that all opinions are valid. I think we should get back to telling people that they are ill informed & ignorant

@bravoCo104498 @_RareDefined Another ridiculous attempt at a deflection from the current issue.

[TheHistorian @AmerickaX]

@JV_All_American @new2crypto_88 @_RareDefined It is always an issue, don’t be ridiculous.

[TheHistorian @AmerickaX]

@new2crypto_88 @_RareDefined We have enough outrage for all situations. This is a poor attempt to reduce this horrible event.

Stop telling black kids with great intellect that they act white.

That is toxic

Sally Hemings was just 14 when she first met Thomas Jefferson. At 16, he impregnated her. He was nearly 46.
He enslaved every child he fathered with her. A painful truth from black’s history we should never forget

GOAT.

Rakim spent 40 years in hip hop without a single Grammy nomination.

Not one. Zero. The man Eminem called "probably the greatest rapper of all time" was never even considered.

On May 8, 2026, that finally changed. Paid In Full was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. Thirty eight years after the album that permanently changed how every rapper writes, delivers and thinks about lyricism.

Before Rakim, rappers rhymed at the end of lines. He changed that. Internal rhyme schemes, multi-syllable patterns, a cold and untouchable delivery nobody had heard before.

The Grammy Hall of Fame is not a Grammy. But after 40 years, it is recognition.

The God MC finally got his flowers.

You have to learn to accept that some people are really fucked up and it’s not your job to fix them.

@gymslim1821 @NESN It’s in my curriculum and I definitely teach it.
