Roland Martin vs. Dr. Umar Johnson

[onetoughmiracle]

I agree with him about the unification of black families but like @Trillfate said I can't go to the top.

 

[franknitti]

Say what you want about Umar but he embarrassed them two clowns arguing that white folks really ain't that bad and "what about the voting rights act".

 

[jono]

I've listened to that Umar dude a couple of time. He strikes me as a pimp aka black preacher. He knows how to pander to black folks, but some how I feel he has a side hustle.

Pimpin black folks is his side hustle

Umar handled all of them, and Lauren looked real stupid praising white men while shitting on a black man.

 

[blackrain]

Same niggas that are quick to disparage people like Umar and Nasheed were the same ones giving Bill Maher passes for saying nigger.

Nah nigga...you reached like hell for this one

 

[rebootx1]

why is all his credentials necessary??? I would have said let's trade, u tell me yours I'll tell you mine

 

[dwade206]

Roland Martin....the boule bird

Umar, and folks like him, have spent decades giving the message that your favorite rapper is just now starting to put in their music.

Why is one able to make millions off it, but the other is reduced to a "pimp"? Theyre both giving the same message.

Whose favorite rapper? Hip Hop has always been littered with knowledge for the betterment of our people.

 

[b'mer...]

Brother is sharp...i jus wish that he can learn to hold his composure more to the ability of Malcolm and Obama. When he reacts with his passion, that feeds the image of the angry, racist, black-nationalist negative spin that, especially that panel wanted to see...

 

[Koltrain]

That panel was definitely coons.. Umar made some good points, but he never has full control over his emotions and needs to learn to talk less sometimes

 

[Lefty_]

Nothin worse than full hotep niggas. Never ever go full hotep B.

 

[blackgod813]

He made them look silly

 

[The Lonious Monk]

We're not African. I disagree with that. We are African American. No amount of denial will change that. African isn't even a country or a nation. It's a continent, so saying that is silly. We all know our heritage is in Africa, but most of us have families that have been in this country for hundreds of years. You can't just ignore that. I don't see how anyone who has travelled to Africa or even sat down and kicked it with Africans for a little bit can argue that. Hell, the is noticeable difference between blacks depending on what region of the US you're from, so it's a bit ridiculous to claim that African Americans are Africans. Like it or not, we've been tainted.

I wasnt trying to imply Hip Hop culture never had knowledge. So I repeat, why does your favorite rapper get props for kicking knowledge, but a fella like Umar doesnt?

Serious question, cause i have no reason to believe yall would of treated X any different. Reflects poorly on the shoe it fits, but id at least hope such a person was consistent with it.

 

[D. Morgan]

Roland Martin pulled some sucka shit with this one!!

The Lauren chick on the panel was on some dumb shit. I'm skeptical of any black person who still has a jheri churl.

[2stepz_ahead]

this is why its hard for us to move anywhere....

this was frustrating to watch
