Hmmmmmm...
Well it certainly is a dicey situation here my two cents worth...
I am not an authority of the teachings of Umar Johnson, I've listened to a few of his speeches and really enjoyed his articulate view of certain matters. As a fellow black male I all too well understand the weakness of the flesh, hell I myself am on Briana Bette threads liking ALL of her half naked pics and protesting GOD BLESS BLACK WOMEN
because I am an absolute sucker for beautiful, shapely black women
However, when you put yourself In a position to which this brother has, as a LEADER amongst our people. You are putting a target on your back, and you WILL face certain scrutiny, be it fair or not. Almost every prominent Black leader to follow MLK and Malcolm have faced some kind of scandal that has damaged their reputation and standing amongst the black community. It will ALWAYS be 2x harder for a black person (be they male or female) to speak a certain type of empowerment and knowledge amongst our people without having their own skeletons brought into the light, and that is because we've been so misled and purposefully taken advantage of by members of our OWN race for monetary advancement that it's almost impossible to give one of our own the "benefit of the doubt"
Umar Johnson HAD to have known this.
When you decide to become this type of leader, you HAVE to hold yourself to a higher standard. He's young, single, no wife, and loves shapely black women. 99% of single, young black males love shapely black women, this is no secret, so I don't fault him for finding a shapely black woman attractive on the LEAST.
But when you position yourself as a LEADER amongst our people. Our people who have been led astray so many times in history, you CANNOT be be caught up with someone calling themselves "Conscious Stripper"
. You just CANT. Your shyt has to be 2x more crisper, cleaner, put together, and presented than ANY other individual because the moment you are "exposed" for being anything less than a beacon of positivity and progress, you WILL be torn down, whether your overall message and intentions are pure or not.
Like someone else posted, you find your women amongst people of your social, economic, and most importantly INTELLECTUAL standards. You don't have to look down on strippers, IG thots, or booty models. Hell you may even "like" their pics or marvel at how gorgeous they are. But PLEASE don't let your dikk get you into a situation where your mission for progress amongst our people can so easily be snatched from you.
