Sexual practices have nothing to do with social positions of black people. Unless the person is not being a father to his child or children.

Maybe some people dont belive in monagamy. Mos Def is a polygamist but the brother brings alot of knowledge to the table.

Well thats between the man and the woman he has a relationship with. His actions in bed doesnt make the truths he speak any less truthful.

Well I dont care what people do behind close doors in bed. I do care what kind of agenda they have to uplift the community. Besides we need to stop putting all our faith in one person and act as a collective unit. So if a man is assasinated we can keep moving. We should never follow men only goals and agendas as a community.
