I know that this may even sound far-fetched or essentially 'out of this world'; yet, what if melanation is a positive, especially when traveling intergalactic throughout the cosmos (a method of counteracting solar radiation), what if a long time ago, even very ancient times there were other melanated beings who first saw us living on this planet within our preliminary evolution? What if they saw our overall potential and our unique ability to advance much further within the evolutionary stages (even outpacing and surpassing their own Godly evolution)? What if jealousy took root within these ancient advance Beings and they thus decided to counter-act our true process of developing via genetic manipulation? Implanting within us unnatural desires and behavior patterns that were normally not part of our original makeup? Example: where as we are inclined now to believe more in so-called (yet non-proven) cosmic space entities as opposed to our natural truer God-like (Self) qualities, inclining the males to be overly hostile, arrogant and egotistical whereas also then inclining the females to be 'crooked natured', soddish, selfish & narcissistic? As a possibility, even as an open possibility would a process such as that put the planetary Richly Melanated people In a situation that they, as a whole unit, would never be able to overcome? Remember as far as technology is concerned, we have gone all the way from initial rocketry & satellites to smartphones, to supercomputers and now even quantum based computers; however, as a whole, this planet's Black - Richly Melanated people are still talking about waiting on some outside 'Gods' and getting someone (other ethnicities/nationalities) to give them equal rights????

But that's what we've been sentenced for years. They've been sentenced for years that the black actors and all of them get together and cut between their own studios. I've been saying that you know, but see when you be selfish and the black people are the one that goes. See their movies and everything you know. You should be investing in the black community. Opening app difficult business isn't putting little black kids to doing some things for them. Aint no one in the world of Michael Jackson. So the gate on white kids all this money, it should have been some black kids, but this is a perfect example what I'm talking about whether even his kids he just adopted them but aint no way in the world. Black people are supposed to be doing this kind of stuff because we have people at his kids out in the street that need the black people help but getting back to the movie thing to the business, yes, I've been saying this. They should get together and put them money together and Denzel Washington's all of them every last one in the movie star Carrie Washington. All of them should get together and stop putting that money together building studios. And doing their own stuff promote each other stuff. Become a big family, the Mexicans are doing it the Mexicans. Do it all the time. If the Mexicans can do it. How come the black people can't do it. Why is it that you can't do it? But the Mexicans can do it stop being so d***Selfish and stop working with your people sitting down and talk and being sincere about loving each other enough where you will be able to work with them and not cheat each other.

That would be considered as segregation! Don’t fool yourself. They want you do this. Racism is real. Let me school you. The whites would not support it and because we don’t make their incomes you would not be making much money. And if you do start making money the conservative Supreme Court will shout it down.

Several years ago I received a email from a independent black filmmaker's company asking for support in addressing Hollywood studio heads not giving Black people " a seat at the table." My response was and is now( quote), "Are you effing kidding me? Stop asking for a seat at a table that doesn't want you...build your own table, buy your own food, prepare and serve it to those who want to sit with you. It might be a smaller table but at least it's yours ( metaphorically speaking). There's too many of you in Hollywood not to partner up. Get it together black holly." ( unquote) I offer the same advice now. Years later while accepting an award Tyler Perry explained how and why he started his own studio..in part he said, " I built my own table"...it made me smile. Btw the independent black filmmaker is Ava Duvenay!!!! I'm proud of her continued success on her own terms. ✊🏾🙏🏾☝🏾

We have to have vision. We need to watch and own our own programs. Its going to get worse. We have to ban together. Period! This is for the best! We need to own and exchange every damn thing we purchase. Its black history month ( you may or may not support it). I know we should be purchasing just from black owned buisnesses and no commercial buisnesses. Period!
