Mason, I absolutely love how you break things down for those of us with slow comprehension can understand this kind of complex intelligence. I would never have been able to clarify the Lord’s Prayer that way. It is simply amazing how you so completely understand things. WOW!

It’s a bumpy ride watching Jesse on Marc’s post but it was a very moving speech. I guess not being able to find it proves white Americans, particularly those in positions of power, don’t want us to hear anything motivational that will empower us. Jesse’s speech does that and they must feel threatened with the prospect of us mobilizing.

Mason you have always made things plain for a simple man like myself. I love how you make it understandable and how I can call you for clarification and you clarify it right away. I think you are a wonderful person and I feel fortunate to know and have you in my life.

I have always had a problem hearing negative things about white people but it think it’s because I struggle facing the reality of how devastating life has been for black people as a whole in America. None of those people killed by law enforcement officers should have been murdered, Michael Brown, and Tamir Rice were kids and this is unacceptable for any reason. Jesse spoke true when he said police deal with white criminals all the time and they don’t gun them down. Like that with boy who shot up those people in that church.

Mason this article was amazing and very helpful, as was Jesse’s speech. I have been enlightened.

I identify more with the black race so I consider myself a member more of the black race than the white. I know many Italians jumped at the chance to ride that white train but honestly, I remember when we weren’t any better than the black people to American whites. I choose to remember that.

Deb, yeah it’s about time to let that go sis. LOL who else facebooks in here? I don’t. Jay do you still facebook bro?

I also appreciated the breakdown, and clarification Mason. It was an enjoyable article to read, and I read it several times. It had so many significant clarifications I didn’t want to miss and I hope we will discuss this in our next meeting.

I listened to Jesse’s speech and he was so serious about what he was saying it demanded we pay attention. All of it was riveting including the last words of it. Just because African Americans are magic doesn’t mean they are not real. This was profound because there is no other way to explain how the excel in so many areas when given an opportunity. Obama has been a fantastic president and would have done so much for this country if congress had been more supportive. He lives an exemplary life in all areas of his life. He is a model of what honorable looks like. Did you hear the cheers he received in Canada? They were saying four more years. That tells you what they think of him around the world.

No Carmine I closed my facebook and twitter because I have a few crazy stokers that keep bothering me. I just shut them both down. I don’t need them kind of problems.

Mason you open your mouth and I look at you in awe. I wonder how you do it. I mean it’s so natural even dad says so. I really want you to get all the way better we need you. We want you to stay with us as long as possible.

Doug I agree with you. Magic, he said. From the presidency to entertainment. I even admire what that mother did to her son in Baltimore. She was saving his life form the very people who will not hesitate to take it. He said they pulled a drive by on Tamir Rice and I agree, and went home to have a sandwich. It made me cry. A grown ass man. Because they did gun that child down like any gang member doing a drive by. He had me standing up while I watched it enough is a damn nough. We need to stop letting them brand us too. Dad you know them are. You’re not them, you relate more to African Americans you know it. Stop carrying it. Like aunt Mason always says, get in where you fit in.
