@kjonesnewyork1 you are so right I just made a reference to this fact in my book. Now that our brothers are chosing the sister from another mother they make it impossible form him to leave the home today, and if he does he is diffinatly going to pay his due. it so sad what our mother's have/had to endure.

I am from Harlem and I remember. We didn't have a lot but we had each other and we were happy with that. So much love in the home.

So sad that "The Powers that Be" designed a plan to separate the Black Man from the Family; In Claudine, you saw that If the Woman had a man at home he became a "liability" preventing her from getting any financial help. He wanted to stay, earn and provide but the "Theys" of this society wanted to make him a dead beat! shame on these strategists! And now they look at the offspring and wonder why they are all messed up! A daddy is crucial in the life of a child! We needed these Men!

I tell u this we as africans in the world is still invisible we show the world being great, smart , loving , building foundation for the family, & look what happen ? What do we have to show for it being last of the human race ! Make us think right peace.

It's funny, this movie was first out b4 my time, yet, I grew up watching the old VHS tapes of it... funny how the 90% of us would be better off invisible~ instead of being pawns in the games of the 10% who run the world. Sorry, the recession is speaking through me....

I live the movie claudine and how harlem looked back in the day!



The scene with the 2 boys on the Bicycle looking for Roop... and the littliest one wanting to be invisible from being misunderstood is etched.
Kudos to Mayfield for writing and Gladys and the Pips [and the musicians] for Breathing the necessary life into this track that speaks loud and clear as it was intended.
