When I win I bring we with me
Man stay in Auburn, Auburn is rapidly expanding, excellent location between Atlanta, Montgomery (primary UPS hub for the region), Bham, and still close to Memphis (Fedex hub), plus land is a lot cheaper and plentiful in lee county than Jefferson county.

:whew: I can't even knock your analysis :whew:


Go look at landwatch.com,

:whoo::lupe:

eventually I would like to buy some land to setup some boutique cattle and hog farming (Berkshire hogs and Angus/Wagiyu beef).

:ehh::whew:

I think it might be better if black folks start buying our own land and making our own hubs.
:ufdup:

1. You don't really save much time from Montgomery to either location. I ran the test and it's...
1 day to Montgomery
1 day of central processing
1 day of shipping to both auburn(30 min away) & b'ham(45min away)


2. Given that I have an internet business and the internet speed is much much faster in b'ham(given that it's a data center nexus) it makes sense to build there.

The telephone company that is now owned by AT&T Inc., which was formerly BellSouth and before that South Central Bell, which had its headquarters in Birmingham, has a major nexus in Birmingham, supported by a skyscraper downtown as well as several large operational center buildings and a data center.
Birmingham, Alabama - Wikipedia


3. Most importantly my political position is that we need to finish correcting our cumulative historical projection.
End transatlantic slave trade (Done)

End the formal institution of chattel slavery(Done)
-I look at the modern prison complex as it's own demon*

End overarching wide scale political division of African people(Done)

-current tribalism levels doesn't trump the current pan-african / African Union / regional, continental, & diasporic integration consciousness and trust

End governmental colonialism(Done)

End academic(mental/spiritual) colonialism(initiated)

-Reconstruction of an African worldview(definitions of reality, values, principles, etc)

End economic colonialism(initiated)

Have capacity to fund all political actions
Have the capacity to extract, process, and manufacture all the goods Africa needs with the resources in the ground
Have the capacity to move all goods around the continent and trade internally.
Be independent of all non-African owned NGOs, production, and/or extraction corporations only leaving foreign(sellers, traders, and tourist).
Have a resource depot for surpluses in the Caribbean, Seychelles/Mauritius, and Kerkennah Islands.(Sale surpluses after domestic needs met)
Diaspora wholesale purchase surplus and use global sale of goods from depots as base financial revenue generator to maintain economic independence/sovereignty of global African peoples.

End military deficiency(initiated)

- gain policing, military powers, and the ability to enforce law. Grow capacity to deal with the total array of threats land, sea, air, cyber, biological, etc.







:jbhmm:In street terms
Me building in a cac city is hustling backwards
:to:
....in terms of governance & economics. My employment opportunities needs to go to "my people", my tax funds need to go to "my people" & my political donations needs to go to making sure "my peoples" political candidates(and their policy maneuvers) are not beholden to "alien" financiers.

....I got so many ideas to build on:banderas: I swear I won't c00n my money away like most of these rich folks :ohlawd:

Hey man you got to do what you have to do, live your dream.
Only thing I'll say is live it for yourself, not for others.

When I win I bring we with me


Damn, so they were 781 tickets shy of capacity seatting :ehh: ...to my knowledge they've never sold out the show but have been getting closer every year. this is the first year my whole fam went.Asked about it at thanksgiving and they said my aunt & uncle from Atlanta came down as well. They need to spin the event off into something else the city has 100% control over(or diversify the events using classic as a model), real fast though. The city is at the mercy of the teams being like I'm out.
When the world games comes to B'ham they better invite every organization they came to the city to sell their facilities as potential event stages.:jbhmm:

:ufdup: Magic City Classic marks 75 years of sport and spectacle - Alabama NewsCenter

Magic City Classic marks 75 years of sport and spectacle
By Solomon Crenshaw Jr.

October 26, 2016

MCC-Feature.jpg


Albert J. Benifield Jr. grew up attending the Magic City Classic and loved the pageantry that accompanied the annual meeting of Alabama A&M and Alabama State at Birmingham’s Legion Field.

As an adult, Benefield, president of the Alabama A&M Alumni Association, lived for a while in New Orleans and believed there was no bigger spectacle among historically black colleges and universities than the Bayou Classic, pitting Grambling Stateagainst Southern.

But Benefield has changed his mind. “Now the Magic City Classic has overtaken the Bayou Classic,” he said, “making that the largest event for black colleges.”

Black College Living has posted on hbculifestyle.com its rankings of the biggest HBCU classics based on attendance. The Magic City Classic has been atop that list the past two years.

The 2014 edition drew 67,710. The Bayou Classic followed with 57,852 and the Southern Heritage Classic with Tennessee State and Jackson State drew 46,914.

The game at Legion Field brought in 63,874 a year ago and the Bayou Classic narrowed the gap with 62,507. The State Fair Classic, pitting Grambling State against Prairie View A&M, had 51,328 in 2015.

Those attendance figures for the Magic City Classic don’t include the throng in the parking lot around Legion Field for tailgating. Many in that crowd choose not to come into the stadium................
