I bring Tariq up because YOU said he just talks and offers nothing tangible.And then you compared him to religious inspiration folks who offer no real solutions.I asked you who are those that make money outside of religion inspiration since religion is a category of inspiration.
Next what form of inspiration do civil rights leaders and feminists provide?Who exactly are these people (names) that are banking off this that aren't being pimped by a political organization or white people?
You can asking me about what tangile lucrative business outside inspiration there are and I never made an argument about that I just asked you to name the people who are running the inspiration hustle outside of religion?
Man i dont want to make an argument out of it,its merely a your take on what i thought was a simple question,but since you have no answer i would assume you are saying no business in the black community is the biggest or most lucrative.
if there are ppl who make up a community and there is an exchange of money,there has to be something.
second,i don't need to exclude religion since its an intricate part of the community,the farther south you go the more its entrenched in there,monies are always exchanging hands.
third,i named civil rights public speakers over the past two decades,i mention so called feminists etc...you more or less try to disregard that also,i dont know every one who has a platform who tries to earn money from public speaking.
i can easily ask do consider jessie jackson,and al sharpton and a few others religious leaders? who have their own church and preach in front of a congregation about GOD on a weekly basis or folks who have also being in a business of inspiration?
to summarize this let me put it this way,since the community are not really creating jobs, or maintaining it,even if one has a minor income its lucrative enough for not offering anything tangible while earning money.
folks on here dont seem to understand context.(am looking at the business of inspiration from a collective level)
not every restaurant makes mcdonalds money,but lots are still able to make money.
if there are no real jobs in the community so folks are unemployed making zero dollars,but am making 200 dollars to speak on something inspirational,whether am an ex athlete or some hotep idiot...its still within the business of inspiration....
usually offering nothing tangble (words)for something tangible (200 dollars)...just an example.
Another question for you,i personally dont subscribe to theology,not sure if you do.
from your knowledge what ethnicity of people are considered or DO YOU CONSIDER to be the original jews?
