I appreciate Zakiya and her work as a press person and educator, using her space to inform ones who may not be aware of what is happening around them. This presentation is just about 3 hours long but it’s worth the watch. If you can watch a movie that’s just as long or participate in any other media activity, you can watch this shit because your life depends on it. I’ll be back to update this post later and add another supporting piece of research to add to your collection of knowledge.
Feel free to drop a comment, contact me, or hit me up on one of my accounts to share your thoughts on this information. Critical autonomy is key.

Friday, September 7, 2018 King James (Jesse Stringer) and Saint “The Good Boy” (Lennell Davis) was looking for a party during after hours when they approached 79th Phillips and seen a building on fire.
I was told by a source that The Chicago Fire Department was on location and did not immediately respond to the fire. That’s what sparked both guys to go into the building on a rescue mission. Source reported that Jesse asked the Fire Fighters what were they waiting on to go into the building and one of the Fire Fighters responded by allegedly telling him to “go ahead and go in”.
I received a call from Saint shortly after they finished the rescue. For more information on the story, click link here, to get CBS2 Chicago’s account. They awkwardly produced their story deliberately stating that the The Chicago Fire Department’s Fire Fighters immediately responded, when I was told by a source, who was present, that they did not.
Nonetheless, it’s great to know that I have great friends/humans around who will sacrifice to ensure the well being of others. They could have kept riding and assumed that because the Chicago Fire Department was present they would take care of it. This is a good example of leadership and being an active citizen.

He was signed to Victor Victor Worldwide and Republic Records and released his first single โWelcome to the Partyโ in April 2019.
According to TMZ, this incident happened around 4:30 AM in the Hollywood Hills and he was rushed by Ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in West Hollywood where he was pronounced dead.

โ… you see 4 men approach the home at around 4:30 AM and sneak around back. A couple minutes pass before 3 of the 4 walk back up the side of the home to the front. The 4th apparently walked in the backdoor but no camera was trained on it. The next time you see the man, he exits through the front door of the house.โ

FBG Duck, a Chicago Musical Illustrator, published a video recorded by Money Strong TV on his channel two days ago on Dec. 7, 2019; and with the apparent loss of legends from the City of Chicago, who are without a doubt gone too soon because of various tragic situations; he proclaims their affects in and on culture. In his illustrated story he mentions Jojo, Pappy, Zack TV, Lil Marc, Dooski, Nuski, Fredo Santana, LA Capone, Lil Mister, and Smylez. With the current loss of another great Chicago Legend Juice Wrld; and Famous Dex being recently hospitalized to recover from seizures, there is no concrete word if he has been released, there is much to be concerned about.
The murder and drug epidemic of Chicago has depreciated the circulation of producers in culture from the city, putting the ideas out there to be mocked by upcoming or lurking seasoned artist to develop from other markets. Every artist mentioned has a different level of success, impact, trade, and skill that contributed to the identity of who Chicago is in the urban culture world. A legend is someone who creates or develops a traditional story, who taps into their genius, and sculps a path for others to follow or to observe only to be influenced by their impact. No matter how well known the legend is globally, it can be very well known in pockets or wide areas to be proclaimed a legend.

This brings attention to the social issues that we need to solve in Chicago, and beyond, that deal ultimately with poverty, civic engagement, health, and the brotherhood of humanity. His piece of art pushes towards conversations that need to be had to better our community and restore unity between the gangs or just those who are conflicted and need to heal in order to let go of past conflicts or traumas. In the words of FBG Duck, โjust to show yourself a better youโ, is worth the participation in helping leaders like him carry messages like this far and wide in the diaspora to help appreciate the progress made in the culture.
I’d like to send love and light to all of the families of our lost and slain ones, even those we lost to non violent tragic situations because we are all still suffering from a bigger issue. Our health, wealth, and our mind state suffers or take constant hits (Urban Dark Hue Beings) because we are in a constant state of oppression while walking dead. We must prescribe a remedy to our ignorance, discipline ourselves, and love one another because the world is depending on it. We are depending on it. You existence is dependent on it.

This lecture has been saved on my watch later list for years, maybe over 4. I’ve watched it multiple times and I’ve decided to start sharing some of my independent scholarly works including my scholarly work as a member of the City Colleges of Chicago and Governors State University. My independent works satisfy me more because it’s aligned with my passion.
We need to know (blacks, poor, indigenous peoples, etc.) that no one is coming to save us and we need to prepare those coming behind us for the real true world, and not the ideal world they teach us we will graduate into as we fake climb the ladder of success in capitalism and public systems.
Feel free to comment and share your thoughts. Please share this lecture with your people, they need to hear this.
I need everyone who reads this post to share it in support of Dj Nehpets.
He’s campaigning to bring awareness to Jukivist in Chicago and we need your help.
Jukivist is a state of mind. Itโs an attitude towards life and how you respond to external situations, plus a lifestyle to live by to create harmony in the community.
We all understand that as people we can be tribal and find people who are like us.
Basically he’s saying that we all are one mind that think and move in love. And thatโs what Jukivisim or Jukivist is about. Moving and speaking in love together.
Join DJ Nephets as he helps others create the change in our city by joining your great mind and spirit to build and grow together in harmony, the jukivist way!!
It’s amazing because it’s a reflection of how consistent I have been in developing my quality of communication and media. And to think I’ve been hard on my self because I’ve been thinking that I haven’t been consistent.
I’ve come a long way โผ๏ธ and I have ways to go but this milestone reminds me that I can overcome anything. Throughout these last 5 years, I’ve floated through the industry crafting, drafting, and developing my lane. This year I’ve finally chosen a specialty: LAW , ETHICS, and ACTS.ย
After playing almost every position in the Field. I am now using all of my tools and knowledge acquired to further run ๐๐พโโ๏ธ my race, as Nipsey Hussle says “Marathon”, because I’m more into victory laps. At some point the race will end but the marathon continues.
I am Self-Published, Director, CTO ๐ฉ๐พโ๐ผ, Editor, Scholar ๐ฉ๐พโ๐ซ, Producer, Creative, Communication and Media Specialist, and everything else I intend on being in the future.
BIG thanks to all those who have, will, and do support me during my venture. It’s been a long 6 years in finding self. And I’m grateful to have shared it with you.
I dedicate this celebration to Jaymo and , a close relative who was shot and killed today on the Southside of Chicago, including the other young man who was shot & killed. I will not mention his name in respect of his family and to give them their privacy.ย
This is why my mission is important because quality in using our (my) voice will bring change to our environment especially if we do it in quantity.
I love you all forever and you did not leave in vain. All angels ๐ผ๐พ memories will live forever through us & our legacy.

This is tragic to report for some but it comes of no surprise to me that our Queen Aretha Franklins has transitioned, August 16 after her long fight with pancreatic cancer. She will be missed forever and we will carry the torch beloved. Continue to live a beautiful life.
I woke up this am and hopped on my instagram to explore, discovering the post above stating that our beloved Aretha Franklin is reportedly gravely ill in Detroit; While she’s surrounded by friends and family.
My team and I send love โค๏ธ, grace, and we appreciate our beloved queen ๐ for the barriers she broke for those who came after her. Her legacy is set in stone. As she transcends we want her to know that we love ๐ her forever and that she can peacefully transition. She’s fulfilled her destiny as a beacon of light ๐ก here on earth ๐.
BREAKING NEWS: I am so saddened to report that the Queen of Soul and my good friend, Aretha Franklin is gravely ill. I spoke with her family members this morning. She is asking for your prayers at this time. Iโll have more details as Iโm allowed to release.
I’m just not going to get into all the extra shit that every other newspaper, blog, or reporter has already told you through the newswire. I wrote this with the mindset that you have already gotten the news. If not my sources are listed below.
Just got a chance to speak to Aretha Franklin. She is resting and surrounded by close friends and family. More details ahead on Local 4 News at 12pm. #ArethaFranklin#aretha
What an amazing ๐ play ๐๐ญ โผ๏ธ Je’Caryous prolifically pulled this together. The all-star cast โญ๏ธ fit the roles, and the story twist….well you’ll just have to catch the last two shows tomorrow to see what’s up. <
sed the very beginning when Stony's brother was killed and probably a bit more. It would have been nice to let Stony get away ๐ถ๐ฟโโ๏ธ the way she did in the movie, rather than the twist. I wasn't really feeling it but it wasn't outrageously altered, It was ๐๐พ.
I will say that there is a lot of work that still needs to be done. After thinking ๐ค about it , they could have invested more into the props and marketing.
My favorite part of the play was the reenactment of Cleo's infamous run ๐๐พโโ๏ธ in with the police ๐. Yo, they had the fucking blue ๐ car with the hydraulics G.
They sung happy ๐ Birthday ๐ to Da Brat, who's birthday is April 14. Chicago go get your tickets and support the arts ๐ญ.
Thanks to Asian Boss, I get to see what Chinese people think about “Black” people. It’s a very great question due to the fact that “Black” people are treated very poorly in many parts of the world.
As a Chinese I can tell you many Chinese do not look fondly on Blacks. We know them from American media. They dont seem freindly but never say it on camera. Truth isnt in this video LOL! A blacks man’s values are no good in Chinese society we think., One being honest is in yellow and red beanie. Others are saving face, a concept foreign to westerners.
-Dee Jay (Comment from Asian Boss YouTube channel)
Many ethnic groups have a love/hate relationship with “Black” people but they love our culture. “Some criminal cases we’ve seen may influence how many Chinese view them” said by one of the constituents on the streets of China, as if Chinese people don’t do criminal shit.ย People are so bias, it’s a taboo.
Well, check out the video for yourself below, but let me state this.
Chinese people do not like black people either. They come into our communities extract our wealth and treat us like shit. They only know us through American media, and it’s clear that they only show “Blacks” from their point of view which happens to be racist. They do not respect us as much as other non-blacks do.
No hard feelings towards anyone because everyone is entitled to their own point of view but let’s start telling the truth, so that we can have real conversations. We are in a new day and age, informing yourself and going straight to the source is very important. Stop listening to White Caucasians or anyone other than “Black” people when it comes to who “Black” people are. That’s like listening ๐๐พ to someone that doesn’t like you, give you a recommendation to get a job. It’s not genuine.
The featured image does not belong to me. It’s a picture captured of a racist Chinese exhibit from a Chinese Museum.
