When are you gonna quit screwing around in Chicago, and return to Kansas City to reopen your restaurant?

I have to admit, KC showed us so much love, it felt really good to make money while doing what we believed in. We tried to sustain the restaurant as a cooperative enterprise, to train community members in Vegan food preparation, turn over the facilities, and expand the business in the city and beyond. We worked like hell to do that in the months before moving. But people we served and worked with were more interested in buying the...

How shocked would you be if Whites actually started rebelling against the systems and institutions of White domination and oppression? Eg. Congress, Wall Street, KKK, etc

It depends on the scale of the rebellion, because there have always been Whites who rebel against the Systems and Institutions of White Domination, for various reasons. Some rebel because they seek to redirect the System, to replace those at the helm of the System, or because they are sick of dying for the System, or because they feel they don’t get their share of the spoils of the System. Those are just a few reasons. There has always...

Have you read much by Ta-Nehisi Coates? Do you have thoughts on “Between the World and Me”?

Yes, I have read TC.My thoughts on Between The World and Me and his other writings is that it’s Liberal Complaints and Appeals, lacking Racial Analysis or Solutions. He’s a good writer, but I don’t think he goes far enough asserting what needs to be done about the injustices he often articulates. I appreciate his honesty in articulating his own fears, pains, trails, and perseverance; but beyond that, I think he essentially continues in...

Any thoughts on the Chinese led development bank “BRICS”? Is it really worth its hype as an alternative to the world bank & IMF or is it just another economical weapon for more developed countries to exploit smaller ones?

All of the BRICS nations; Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa have demonstrated that they are as willing to exploit, incarcerate, impoverish, and kill their citizens for the benefit of their economic and political elites. All of these nations have committed atrocities, mass killings of their citizen or subjects who’s protested or demonstrated for social, political, religious, cultural, and economies justice. I don’t even have...

Brother Diallo, I understand that you are a vegan, but surely you can’t be against the consumption of meat entirely? Human beings have eaten meat since appearing on this planet. I think you are right to attack industrial farming and gmo foods. But what about the simple herdsman that raises animals chemical free and his or her entire economic situation is based around this and has to feed their children on the animals they raise?

My primary issue is with industrial, corporate, subsidized meat production/processing/consumption. I wouldn’t deny their Maasai herdsmen their cattle, or the Inuit their fish and sea mammal consumption. The problem is in the West, in the first world, or so-called industrialized nations; that’s where I promote Veganism. I also advocate Veganism across humanity, when it is practical. Many diseases of affluence and modernization like...

What are your thoughts about China establishing a military base in Djibouti?

Short Answer:I don’t like that shit.Long Answer:China is following the White Industriocapitalist (I made this word up) Development blueprint: Step One: Hyper-exploit your own citizens and ecosystems to the point of collapse.Step Two: Expand to other “less-developed” lands and repeat Step one.Step Three: Invent ideological, pusedoscientific, and political justifications for Step two.Step Four: Find the treasonous element within your...

So glad you called out the “meninism” “straight pride”, “redpill” “mgtow” bullshit that black men have for some reason been buying into. Most of them don’t even realize these ideologies come from chauvinistic, racist and mentally not there white people. Some black folk don’t even care. The common black person loves to mimic white pathology and that shit is troubling.

Yeah you said it. But I don’t think it’s the “common Black person.” It’s just that these types are the most vocal and visible, which make them seem greater in number than they actually are. The White majority has a significant numbers of its people trending towards (Christian) Fascism; so it’s only natural that a segment of the Black community will follow them there. No matter where our oppressors go, there’s always a...

questions

Hey Diallo, What is view on new tech companies such as Uber, Washio, Eaze etc. expanding the contract worker business model? Also home/room sharing app’s/platforms like Airbnb potentially leading to hyper gentrification of urban communities?It’s all just more Capitalist Parasitism; just like the Temp “industry,” or the gig economy, or the adjunct professor scam; it’s all Capitalist Parasitism. It’s a mockery or real...
