I really dislike the term "People of color". It is confusing. It also seems to be used to avoid referencing Black People specifically.

On top of that it reinforces the prejuduce that the standard is white (as if that was not a color itself, btw).
cacs just don't wanna say "non-white"
I want to make a thread about the black boogie man notion.

See the brother in this picture surrounded by youth? Well this military veteran, youth advocate and community organizer would have been 90 years old today [February 22nd, 1928] yet he was assassinated in the 1960s like El Hajj Malik Shabazz [Malcolm X.], Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Robert F. Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, Medgar Evers, Fred Hampton and others. The 1960s were a very trouble time in America and this man known as Clarence 13x and affectionately known as "The Father/ Allah", put his life on the line to help youngsters navigate through trouble times & aspire to greatness.
father's community work amongst the youth started in Harlem and begin to spread to positively impact lives beyond NYC boroughs, states and eventually other countries by 2018. He wasn't a college graduate, a religious leader nor did he receive grant money to take on this task. He wasn't on the city's payroll or doing community service hours. Clarence cared enough about his community to do everything within his power to transform its condition and help inspire, empower & educate the youngsers to be its future leaders. Like many unsung heros and sheros, his legacy is one of the greatest stories never told.

Dealing with some other Africans is really discouraging sometimes. Just gotta accept the fact that not everyone will make it and that you have to protect yourself from their stupidity as much as possible and just build with likeminded folks.
Among the Idoma of Nigeria, God is not senior to the earth. The following fairly common prayer makes this explicit:
βThey took the sacrifice to the East; the East said, βSend it to the West.β They took the sacrifice to the West; the West said, βSend it to God.β They took it to God, and God said, βSend it to Earth, for Earth is senior.β I asked a knowledgeable elder about this, and he said, βEarth is senior to God, Earth is female, God is male. If God likes, he spoils Earth.ββ

the k of kbd is the k- of kikuki (actuallu kakuki) and that leads to kweke > bere. Semitic offer us the possibility to know that kweke > 'bere > bere come from ka-kuki with ka- being the instrument/tool affix in archaic Negro-Egyptian. Later on, kweke and kekwe (outside kikuki) "invented" body part affix kw- but pre-proto-Semitic is no longer concerned. processing.

The importance of historical linguistic details:
Here is a quick fact which makes it possible to understand that any such insignificant detail is revealing in historical linguistics. It is known that in Negro-Egyptian Semantics, words for " lung ", " liver " and " heart " belong to the same semantic field. This is what makes it possible to reconcile the k-B-B-D-D-D ' liver, Bantu-badi < * Kbadi " liver ", zandΓ© bere " Liver ", Somali beer " liver ", and the Peul ber and le n. Gbodu "heart" on the other hand. Hence zandΓ© bere < * Bari "liver" and n. Gbodu " heart " has the same root, the change of meaning by the median vowel (-O-to mean " heart " and-a-for " liver "). This simple alternation o / a is of great historical importance : they are signs of old prΓ©fixes prefixes: * O-Gbed-> Gbod-u " heart " and * A-Gbed-> *-I > * Bari > Beer " liver ". everything is understood then: the heart Was Male (active and hard organ) while the liver was female (mass and relatively passive). The male and female prefixes have thus shown themselves, respectively, of-and ama-bantu prefixes. (b) the existence of-O-(Mid-closed vowel initially closed-U-) in n. Gbod-u explains the conservation of LA-velaire gb while the presence of the open vowel-a-removes the labiovΓ©laritΓ© from the initial consonant, passing from GB-to b -.
These are all the conclusions that can be drawn from this simple alternation of " heart " versus bere " liver ". it doesn't look like it, does it?
