Back to the slave days we go...This is why we as Black Americans need to create and own our own media outlets. And I mean owned from top to bottom, that way we can say what we want without having to kiss anybody's butt. {{-_-}}

If you think that "blacks" should gather together to fearlessly express their homophobia, then I respectufully suggest you move to Jamaica!!! (About the MOST homophobic place on earth)
My Kenan Family, who put what is arguably America's LARGEST and MOST SECRETLY HELD fortune (control of ExxonMobil, Chevron, Coca-Cola, Bank of America, etc., etc.) into Charitable Trusts in support first of EDUCATION (incidently, we FOUNDED UNC with allied families in 1789. Tarheels refers to how Kenans made their first New World fortune in "naval stores" (turpentine, pitch, tar, etc. from the native pines of SE North Carolina), then Democracy and support of the Arts -- and now preserving the native languages and cultures in Latin America.
We have made sure that African Americans have access to Education in the universities that we support. Thomas S. Kenan III (now in charge) and I are both out homosexuals. You are free to have your hateful opinion -- but NOT to force it on everyone else. We stand UP for the US Constitution, which earlier Kenans influenced when it was written.
