Are YOU joking buying a brand new car instead of continuing to have grief with my lovable but tempermental 12 year old car cost me my best job/contract EVER doing Design Integration at the Photocopier Research and Development for Xerox here in the UK at Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire?This remind mind me of that older co-worker I mentioned yesterday when I commented on the "12 Years a Slave" thread. He was so frightened of what YT thought, that he was scared to drive his new car to work, and instead drove an old small Dodson...and he was almost 6' 3".
He used to also caution me and a few other younger brothers about dressing too nice at work, but I never even wore a suit on the job. I truly don't believe he even had a new car, because although he was the highest paid black person in our division, he had nine kids with different women, not to mention his grandchildren.
But to be still spreading that kind of fear to young blacks, I found rather disturbing.
Although I've heard **** Gregory tell similar stories about not being able to drive your new car to work in the past, when it comes to what you're describing in Phoenix, it seems like YT would have came hunting them down anyway sooner or later, regardless of what Muhammad Ali did.
I just don't believe black people hiding their wealth is a good long-term solution; not even a good short-term solution today. Material things will fade away anyhow if you have to give up your freedom to have them. If you defend your God given freedom, you tend to hold on to your material possessions, or they seem to come back to you double if you lose them.
Isn’t ANYONE who genuinely believes they are not programmed
graphically illustrating that their programming is COMPLETE?
