		<description>A lot of people fail to mention that a great deal of the problems between Black men and Black women were either caused by or made worse by slavery, welfare, prison industrial complex, etc. I have run into my share of Black people who make it a point to completely exonerate all forms of industrialized racism and slavery from anything that resembles responsibility or blame.  They simply believe that the problems which are mostly unique to &quot;African Americans&quot; are simply just because &quot;that is the way we are&quot;.  

Other races or groups of people have not had outside forces purposely inflicting damage or creating problems within their family structure. Black families were constantly being separated during slavery. Black men are arrested, imprisoned and serve longer sentences that most other races for the same or similar offenses.  I have even read reports that Black women are now being arrested and imprisoned at alarming rates.  In short, a lot of Black people are not used to their entire family unit remaining intact through their entire childhood and into adulthood.  

Another problems is that way too many Black people have adopted a behavior of individualism. Also, way too many feel that it is okay to manipulate or mess over one another for sexual, financial, or some other type of gain.  A lot of Black people have lost respect themselves, their race, their communities, and don&#039;t see the importance in working together for survival and to achieve a collective &quot;greater good&quot;.  This is very evident in the type of music and images that many of us choose to listen to as well as  how we present ourselves to others.  Even most of these so called &quot;women&#039;s anthems&quot; are not positive because they help promote successful cooperative relationships.  Instead, they teach you to look at the men of your own race as untrustworthy, shady, lazy, stupid, incompetent and easy to manipulate.  These are same qualities that make police shoot unarmed Black men, Employers deny jobs, and merchants follow your sons, boyfriends, fathers, or any other Black man through stores.  The songs, videos, and movies also show black women as always angry, whores, gullible, and not worthy of love, respect, or admiration.  

A great number of us would be well served to invest a good amount of time, money and effort into learning more about the &quot;true us&quot; rather than the one shown by the corporate media.  If we were all as lazy, stupid, incompetent  or uncooperative  as the media and other institutions would have you believe; we could never have built the pyramids, invented algebra, calculus, establish civil rights in this country for people of all races or performed the first successful open heart surgery(to name a few) .  Also of note, the University of Timbuktu is one of if not the oldest schools in the history of the entire world.</description>

		<description>We hear of celebrities changing their lifestyles after encountering God for themselves and they usually get a lot of flack. But the truth is, God DOES make the difference. Not only am I glad to hear that she is maintaining her celibacy but I&#039;m also glad that she is bold enough to share where her decision came from and they get the strength to maintain. Great example!</description>

		<description>...you say you are done with black women, but what do black women (plural) have to do with the one (singular) STANK (your words) woman YOU married??? I have a hard time believing this woman wasn&#039;t STANK (your words) before you married her. Was it the money???

The problem we have in our community is we are RACIST against one another...sounds like you really believe her &quot;blackness&quot; is the problem.

Face it...you PICKED a STANK bitch...YOU picked her... I blame you.

Sincerely, 
Truth</description>
