Dave Chappelle: The Closer…When you “listen” with a closed mind

My black LGBTQIA+ community…please stop letting these white folks get you riled up. What Dave Chappelle said in his new Netflix stand-up comedy special, “The Closer,” was nothing but the truth and should not have been taken to heart the way that some took it. This is a huge problem that I have with these…

When being too woke becomes toxic

And for the record, I didn’t need any more toxicity in my life. But as with many things I have endured in my life, I had to learn the hard way. Going through something that was pretty much life or death made me re-evaluate where I was channeling all of my energy. I was angry…

We are exhausted! Black people are exhausted!

As strong as we are as black people; even the strongest have their limit. How much more pain and heartache can a group of people take? For those black folks that feel this doesn’t affect me…wake the hell up. This is an attack on all of us. For some reason in 2020 racism has openly…

Reasons as to when it comes to Terry Crews, I say…”Who?”

A read by Dannie B Speaks When Don Lemon is the more woke one and has to educate you on what Black Lives Matter means…I say…”Who?” 2. When your career was built on playing coonish characters…I say…”Who?” 3. When a ni@@a gains fame by constantly shaking his breastesses…I say…”Who?” 4. When you have constant frown…

Allies…no when to say when!

We appreciate our allies; we truly do. But some of you all are doing way too much. With all of the anger and frustration, you are unleashing; it’s causing law enforcement or whoever else to want to take their anger out on us. We are going to be the ones to pay. Please be aware…

No more energy…

I saw a clip of y’all’s VICE PRESIDENT (because remember I don’t have one) go all around the world without being able to say three simple words…”Black Lives Matter.” He just couldn’t do it. In a sense, without saying so he refused to say it. He came with all of the all lives matter bullshit…

Buy Black!

Yesterday was Juneteenth 2020 was a record-breaking day for black businesses here in C-Bus. I personally hit up two restaurants yesterday and the wait was crazy but it was absolutely worth every minute and every dollar spent. Even today, I was out on the south side, and on my way back home I was going…

Exposing the racist among us! (Dannie B Speaks shorts)

Just a quick post of something on my mind. Of course, thanks to social media many of these everyday people who are racist are being exposed. What do I mean by everyday people? These are people who are in our lives every day. We work with these asses. Buy from these asses. These are educators,…

Black pride = white tears? Why?

Disclaimer: This is not a divisive post. This is meant to touch and agree with those who have the problem and to let you know…WE SEE YOU! Black history month, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU’s), black pride, Black Girls Rock, Black Entertainment Television (BET), “black” feminine hygiene products, The Black Panthers, American Black Film…

Dear Nick Bosa…I’m not mad at you…Just stand in your truth!

As much as I love my Buckeyes, I’m not naive to the fact that bullshit happens in and around the program as it does it all of the top colleges. This post isn’t specifically geared to the Ohio State athletic system, especially the football team which brings in the most money. If anything…that’s what I…
