    We often hear about workers going on strike in the news. If the workforce want change then one way to influence it is by going on strike. Striking is a modern phenomenon, surely?

    Morbid question but did anyone here had an ancestor that was lynched or survived one?

    I was watching documentaries on the Tulsa pogrom and seeing elderly survivors of that event is just insane to me. And it got me thinking if there's anyone on the Coli that has a family history of being victims of racial violence. Also, how come I never heard of any cac that had a grandparent...

    Has Anyone Else Heard That The Roughest and Most Crude Slaves Went to Mississippi?

    I was just reminded of this after hearing a woman retell a story and mention it. Is there historical truth to this? Being from Chicago and a son of Mississippi, there is an aggression that black people have in Chicago, that I haven't really seen anywhere else. Chicago nikkas go from 0-100 at...

    We should drop this whole ADOS thing

    I can't say it enough that a new hashtag needs to be made. ADOS is already taken by the military and by those with autism. It's not exclusive enough. FBA needs to go too because that really stands for Functional Behavior Assessment. We as a people should start officially using #ADOG...

    How did Reagan won in a landslide in 1984, when 91% of Black people voted for Mondale?

    We had around the same percentage then as now: 14% of the US population. And turnout was around 60%, so how did Reagan carried literally every state/region except for Minnesota and DC???:mindblown:. It should've left a decent sized dent but Reagan literally had this:

    Video games that literally RAN THE STREETS

    What are some video games that literally ran the streets and/or could realistically be considered the GOAT at the time of their release?

    Cacs upset by black actress portraying Queen Anne Boleyn

    And the sadly ironic part about it all is that she actually was a black woman (Dark-skinned to be exact). But of course it's not taught and people just go along with the white man's lies when it pertains to history.

    Just got done watching a documentary on the Nigerian Civil War and I was wondering about the amount of animosity the Southwestern states had against the North, it would have made sense that Ojukwu ask them to join Biafra.
