2024 NCAA was absolutely fantastic. You could check out the women or the men and knew that you were going to see a great game with some phenomenal players. This year we saw history being made and records being broken. We saw players who were thought to be less than but were the catalyst to teams winning. We saw number ones being escorted off the floor by teams that weren’t even in their bracket less and only on their level being trounced by players who were just glad to be in the playoffs let alone beating a top seeded team to go on to the finals.
I know many of my friends who brackets were done in the first round and definitely in the second round but not me. I just knew that UCONN was going to win just based on the fact that they had the best defense, best offense, best blocking, and a group of 3-point players, who just so happen to be some of the best rebounders you have ever seen, but more importantly they were the most unselfish team I have ever seen in history. When one of them was not hot they had enough unselfish character to set someone else up who was hot and that is why they won.
Regarding the women, I had no clue how good South Carolina was so I thought LSU was gone win and they thought they was gone win. I don’t think no one thought Iowa was gone win even with the one of the best female players we have ever seen in Kaitlin Clark because that was all they had but South Carolina had other plans. I know the gamblers, the mob, and many others wish they had an inside tip but they didn’t so to all our surprise Coach Dawn Staley was at the heart of this team because she had all new players who she believed in and they believed and loved her and they wanted to show her just how much she meant to them by winning and they did just that.
Can you imagine how much money could be made if someone had an INSIDE TIP on who was gone win.
Well, I’m here to give yall an inside tip on what’s happening to black people all over the world and it’s called GENTROCIDE. I know there is no such word, but it fits what I’m about to tell you. So, here’s the background for the breakdown, here is the context of the content.
Gentrification is the process of changing the character of a neighborhood through an influx of high-income earners, because the area is by the water or has better amenities (i.e.) like being closer to restaurants, or the downtown area, with great public transportation just to name a few. In other words, white people waiting for our neighborhood to decay and become slums so they can come in and gut it, build new buildings, and charge exorbitant rents to essentially say NO BLACK PEOPLE allowed to live here.
We know that cide means killer. Right now, at this time in America black generational wealth is about to die. How? By killing affirmative action, by killing funding for HBCU’S, by killing DEI, by killing CRT, by killing voting rights, by KILLING US, and by trying to take down the fearless fund, as well as many other programs that create opportunities for black people to move upward and build a legacy of generational wealth like they have.
There is more than a cover-up it is plain ERASURE of black culture so much so that we will soon be extinct. That is their goal but only if we let them. How can we stop this tragedy from happening? I’m glad you asked. First of all, we must vote and put the right person in office, in other words someone who sees the plight of black people and won’t let the majority change their mind or be too scared to implement the necessary changes required to fix the problems and stop making excuses. Secondly, all of us must address the elephant in the room in other words we all need to speak the truth about our own prejudices recognize them and then do something anyway because not doing anything isn’t an option anymore, because the country is rapidly going to hell in a hand basket as my grandfather used to say. Finally, as black people we need to be honest about our lack of support for each other. The old saying crabs in a barrel niggas is still true today unfortunately. Everybody loves Atlanta because of the Black explosion of successful businesses but did yall know we could literally have that everywhere if we did the ONE thing they do and that is support our black owned businesses.

White people have ALWAYS done this that’s one of the reasons they have generational wealth; however, the biggest reason is because they made money off the backs of black people but that’s neither here nor there at this time. I will speak on this in another post. As for now let’s start SUPPORTING BLACK-OWNED BUSINESSES and watch what happens in our communities, in our cities, in our states. We can change the dynamics of this world simply by taking our TRILLION DOLLARS to BLACK-OWNED COMPANIES. Here’s your chance to do just that. This is a list of some black owned businesses.
