SO called leaders both genders who do not 24/7 advocate for our enslaved ancestors Restitution, Reparations, Repatriation, they have made a pact with the devil mind-set, still enslaved/subservient, and we applaud such so called leaders, both genders, and doing so, we are still enslaved/subservient. This is definitely no Hon. Marcus Spirit we hear. What type of Spirit that does not lead and guide the people out of the hells they are in?

We must be extremely careful of charlatans, mountebanks...so called elders/leaders among us who operates with the same spirit that so called leaders in the church does, self aggrandizement/vain glory. True serious Revolutionaries does not advertise them selves like this. True Divine Liberators of people does not need this type of media. What you seen here is another form of Church/Religions without the use of the Jesus name. Mr. Gregory. What are the Divine Solutions to our people problems?

Is this a comedy show? Why do so many people pay money to be hook winked, bamboozled, lied too? Psychologist has proven many people aren't in search of Real Truth, the real Truth/Reality which is (Intuitively). Many of our so called Elders are largely responsible for the lack of progress among our people. After all this Show, where are our people still today. What Dick Gregory knows we can all know when we exercise common sense.

No so called leader among our people is exempted from being questioned. Black people looking mean, Dick Gregory said. Hell, are we suppose to look like we have joy in a system that is Unnatural and keeps kicking our people minds and behinds. If there aren't any Divine righteous angry Black People angry for all that has happened to us and still happening to us, if we do not have divine righteous anger, we are insane.

Dick Gregory said: If they had a brother like Dick Gregory yall will be in trouble.----How has Dick Gregory assisted our people in our Divine Solutions, salvation, liberation and freedom, meaning does he ever advocate for our enslaved ancestors Restitution, Reparation, Repatriation away from a system he complains about? We are in trouble because of so called brothers like him, Elitist Black. Once a comedian always a comedian.
