I am also aware that we are often our own worst critics... and my entire blog one could say is subjective..<br />My 'world view' if you like<br />Still... a broader perhaps a less ‘huddled’, navel gazing approach is very very welcome<br />I like the comment you made..'better to do most times.. than to talk'<br />I feel we're on the same pageDawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426393284664166090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732892250430269339.post-83465016039341589802012-04-03T16:42:32.651+01:002012-04-03T16:42:32.651+01:00D, the merits of an Afrocentric world view is neve...D, the merits of an Afrocentric world view is never lost on the discerning mind, so no you are not being cynical. If anything its a frustration shared by many. OK, it sounds good to the ear but what's its application when our kids are been killed on the street?<br /><br />As you describe it, and as I've witnessed too, these guys wear it like some reactionary label and are thoroughly incapable of applying even its basic tenets. Always in the negative and nothing really uplifting about the conversations - race this, white that, devil this. This is a different age and these views are mostly outdated, address nothing we face today, and bunk when you swirl it around in your mouth (<i>yuk!</i>). Better to do most times than to talk.<br /><br />I had this "conscious" breddah once tell me white women were devils not to be touched with a pole. Turned out my man was the biggest "perpetrator" in a shocking way (<i>;) I'll tell you the bizarre story sometime</i>)<br /><br />We should remain proud of who we are but very mindful of who is telling our storychromehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17338912618994331113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732892250430269339.post-36236655607960986842012-04-03T15:40:15.307+01:002012-04-03T15:40:15.307+01:00I hear you Chrome
Maybe i'm beng cynical.. may...I hear you Chrome<br />Maybe i'm beng cynical.. maybe i'm not .. tough call...<br />I just dont much dig fakes, frauds, liars, or the arrogant longbagatalking' types that frequent certain estblishments. My tolerance level is... 0.<br />My tempatation is to remark.. and so f****** what!?! <br />Do you really think we need a history lesson , or a lesson in self love?.. or ...are they one and the same?... as I said ...I'm not sure...<br />We seem to be going around in circles somewhat<br />Besides.. I know of enough 'afrocentric'/'rasta' 'types' who call their women 'Queen' then beat the hell out of them in private.<br /><br />Shit don't wash with meDawnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06426393284664166090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732892250430269339.post-42970687751060420572012-04-03T15:26:32.698+01:002012-04-03T15:26:32.698+01:00You should listen to a typical Galaxy radio phone-...You should listen to a typical Galaxy radio phone-in, you'd be shaking/crying/laughing at some of the outlandish (barbershop) comments from callers :~) However there are those, like the Rasta in my post, who make sense and put in hard practical and uplifting work - these people I pay attention to.<br /><br />The myriad Afrocentric creationist/revisionist views can be at times incoherent, especially when you try to reconcile it with the current state of the "black community".
