Black Intel

Have you said your please and thank you’s today? Where is our home training? Just because we are not getting our home training at home anymore doesn’t mean we shouldn’t search for and use them daily?

The first controversy being the “Compton Cookout” party and the second its subsequent Koala broadcast that used highly offensive language and called those who were outraged by the party “ungrateful.” A student called into the police department this morning at 9am to confess putting up the noose, according to the school’s vice chancellor.

I hear many people saying they disagree with Black History Month. Some, asking why is just one month devoted to Black History, or asking in turn where is White History Month? is? I say to that, Black people are never satisfied. We must embrace the past! We must embrace the past so that we can know where we came from and how we must progress from there…

Update on compton cookout at UCSD…

Why would a man want to hyphenate his name? As “progressive” as it may be, it is emasculating for a man to take a woman’s name in any form. It basically says that he isn’t about anything and/or he’s not the head of his household. He might as well polish his nails and birth the babies…

At the party, called “Compton Cookout” women were given these instructions:

“Ghetto chicks have a very limited vocabulary, and attempt to make up for it, by forming new words, such as ‘constipulated’, or simply cursing persistently, or using other types of vulgarities, and making noises, such as ‘hmmg!’, or smacking their lips, and making other angry noises, grunts, and faces.”

MAYER: Someone asked me the other day, “What does it feel like now to have a hood pass?” And by the way, it’s sort of a contradiction in terms, because if you really had a hood pass, you could call it a nigger pass. Why are you pulling a punch and calling it a hood pass if you really have a hood pass? But I said, “I can’t really have a hood pass.
