You just believe something without any sort of evidence? I'm not saying he did or didn't but stans lie for their heroes everyday
Welp, that is another example that Tariq follows through on what he says he's going to do.
That was Bayyinah Bello. I'd rather he actually showed us evidence than just have her say it. No pics?
Right. just have ok Bayinah say it without actually showing it is kinda strange
Welp... Looks like we have evidence of two frauds.
When I said it they got mad in here. Let's see what they say to you
Did he say he had solid evidence or did he say he knew?
Fuck wrong with you?Damn...........!

A little more than a week ago I wrote two scathing articles about Umar Johnson. I called him a charlatan (I think ... I call a lot of charlatans “charlatan”). I castigated him for taking people’s money without showing them where it went. I said that there was no evidence he ever tried to buy a school or would ever build a school.
I was wrong.
It turns out that Umar Johnson is a doctor of psychology. The National Student Clearinghouse verified it for me late last night after researching his files. You can view the certificate here.

Here is my problem with stupid people and narcissists. They will argue their side of a debate just to save face. They can know they are wrong, yet they will still belabor their point. They don’t want truth or understanding; they just want to be right. Dumb people do that. It’s why Donald Trump’s personal mantra is, “Never admit you were wrong. It shows weakness.”
I have always said privately and publicly that I agree with a lot of what Johnson says. Part of my problem with him (aside from our disagreement about homosexuality ruining the black race and some of his more misogynistic rhetoric) was that many people listened to him because he said he was a doctor of psychology. Some people gave him the benefit of the doubt simply because of his credentials.
I don’t think “the white man’s degree” makes Johnson any more or less credible. He was the one going around calling himself “doctor.” If his credentials were fake, then, in my opinion, his foundation was built on lies.
There are opponents of Johnson who will say that we are now giving him credibility. His fans will say I slandered him and will want Hoteparations. Look through what I wrote about him and tell me this: Where’s the lie?
I call balls and strikes. I did not have a vendetta against Johnson; nor am I now an Umar apologist. I will admit that I use humor and sarcasm to make my point, and I know that it can come off as smug. Some people don’t like it, and I’m fine with that. You know why I’m comfortable doing it?
Because I’ll never be too self-important or high-strung to say I was wrong.
I stand by what I said about him. No one knows where any of the money has gone that he collected. No one has seen any evidence that he is building a school. I think he’s homophobic. I believe he’s a misogynist. I believe he inflated his connection with Frederick Douglass or doesn’t know what the term “descendant” means. I believe he had an affair with a stripper. I believe he mixes opinion with facts and sells it as truth.
I also believe that he has some good rhetoric and ideas. I don’t believe that anyone should dismiss every single thing he says because of the things I said in the previous paragraph. I do feel that he erases so much of the good with inane, unfounded, bullshit mythology and Hotepery. I believe he takes advantage of people who want to be taught who aren’t critical thinkers.
Ultimately, I believe in nuance. I believe it is possible to be a scholar and a charlatan. I would still like to know what happened to those people’s money. I actually hope that he builds a school for black boys. But there is one thing I must be clear about:
His name is Doctor Umar Johnson.

I thought he wasn't gonna address Umar after that 1st video
hit dogs hollaI thought he wasn't gonna address Umar after that 1st video
damn!!!As proof in this thread, Tariq is daddy to alot of niggas as you can tell.the way they defend him, got niggas in here scouring the web to post pictures of his mother in law holding black babies in Africa
The same imagery that Tariq used in one of the Hidden Colors about whites going over to Africa for photo ops is the same imagery his sons use to defend daddy Flex in this thread...ironic
Im a fan of hidden colors but Tariq is looking bitchmade the way he's dragging this out but he let DJ Vlad punk him into taking down the video where he tried to question Vlad
