I’m so over the kee keeing and haw hawing to make nice just to go along to get along. I learned the art of looking right through and beyond whyte people as if they’re not even there. 45 placed Obama’s entire family in jeopardy and there was no necessary reason for the kee keeing. I think it made him look weak cooning to a clown. I agree that you can be cordial without reducing yourself to the coon behavior. I even had an issue with him sitting and having beers with the cop that arrested Henry Lewis Gates, Jr. when he broke his window to get into his own home. I felt that was rewarding bad behavior on the part of the cop.

Dear Ann Marie! I agree 110%. Who cares about being liked? Thank you for “clarifying “!!!!! A lot of people out there have some growing up to do! Because this is just the beginning of our sorrows. God bless!

President Carter actually did a lot: Department of Education, being one of them. Lots more.

Kamala Harris definitely didn't like the optics of Barack and Donald.

On point again.

Yes

I just made a Facebook post on that Very subject. My husband and an associate were sitting in a mechanic shop owned by a saltine. Every unfunny joke that saltine made they were laughing and chucking it up. Saltine was not even laughing himself. He could express an opinion and they were agreeing with him before he could get it out of his mouth! I on the other hand sat there and got more respect than the both of them. However I don’t give that a lot of credence because that could just be his way of keeping enmity between the sexes or some other nefarious reason. But I want every video you publish!!

💯

I dont under the comments saying that people are just looking for drama and entertainment. Its not like you said Obama needed to snub the guy or make a scene. You just said to be cordial but not friendly. Why does Obama have to be chummy with someone who's disrespected multiple times in order to be considered an "adult"? Thats not being an adult that accepting disrespect

11 minutes in… yup, this is truth. I was in a program where my teacher (colonel) was a bw. She was feared and you wouldn’t expect her to actually like you bc you had a fear (like how you would fear disrespecting your own mother). She was actually fairly nice but struck a carefully crafted balance that still kept you on your toes 😂 people complained about her for little reasons like her sternness, but let me tell you, when she left, people wanted to cry. They actually realized how much they loved her. The only other 2 bw teachers I had were during middle school. One was from Texas, straight hair, “valley girl” accent, and pretty sweet (wish I could’ve reached out to her after I left and let her know I saw what she was going through and appreciated her). The Asian students treated her with the most disrespect! It was wild. Some even left me out of group projects and work! The other one was from the Caribbean. A family and consumer Sci teacher. Had a slight “accent”. She was treated like SH!t and was also nice and unproblematic. It’s crazy. By the way, all the BM teachers I had… were all respected and cherished, like by DEFAULT. No matter is nice or stern the bw teacher was… she was always seen I a more negative light compared to the BM teachers…

I agree. Thank you.

You absolutely 💯 sis I agree with you 💯

Even Kamala looked at Obama like really? Ill bet Michelle laid Obama out when he got home.She said she will not be going to the inarguration either.

Thanks for explaining how there are 3rd, 4th, and 5th options that dont involve placating or "acting a fool" 🙄. But...the mental gymnastics have already started in the comments. Enjoy your evening!

I don't agree with some of the church people pastors telling people not to leave a work environment that is extremely toxic towards them

I started watching your channel last month which would be this past December I'm loving your type of content thanks so much and thanks so much for talking about this

I'm so afraid the overt disrespect is getting so much more prevalent and I have a horrible temper. Pray for me please. I heard my forever First Lady Michelle said she didn't go cuz she wasn't gonna be kee keeing in the orange turd's face. She gets all the respect.

It's definitely over now.

I agree. But there’s a part of me that wonders what happened behind the scenes. For all we know, Felon 47 could have threatened his family if he didn’t act “cordial”. I do not put anything past that man.

I agree, when I saw the exchange all I could think was wow I have faked kindness at work before. Then I thought dang Michelle was smart to not go.

Your correct Ann Marie about Obama. Obama is from the Chicago area, and he is just acting out how the wht community conditions the blk people in this area. I live in this area and see what Obama did all the time. If people are saying it was cool, they are just telling you what they are doing. But on the flip side, those same blk folks won't give another blk people the same grace Obama gave Trump.

Errrbody forget that Obizzy is 50/50 that other side go say hi ya doin? Much respect tho he showed up and showed out. Sometimes you got to pop and show em'

Baba Greg Carr calls him the chocolate wonder

We are outta effs to give! In 2024 i decided that EVERYBODY and their poodle 🐩 could get it!!

The unapologetic attitude you have is sooooo refreshing ❤

I 100% agree with you. But I see the other side. A overwhelming majority of jobs in corporate America particularly the high paying ultra-competitive jobs many have to do this to survive. I can’t do it- which is why I am constantly quitting and moving jobs. But not everyone has the courage to up and quit and move like you and I would. After all these years I have learned that to be able to live my truth fully is not compatible with most of these work spaces which is why I am trying to FIRE in the next 5 years before I turn 50.

I agree! I informed my friend that I would no longer be going to a Denny's because the staff there were obviously prejudiced and even brought me a dirty syrup container. He tried to make excuses for their behavior and attempted to persuade me to play nice. I made it very clear to him that I would no longer put up with such behavior because there are too many restaurants in the area for me to spend money at disrespectful establishments. It was in that moment that I realized that we are always making nice through the disrespect.

Totally agree. Those smiles made bad optics.We gave Obama so much as black people. He could have at least kept a straight face and kept it curt. Did not like that pic at all.

I respect how Mrs. Pence handled herself and I respect the former First Lady Obama for choice. Her choice was respectful to the former POTUS Carter while preserving her mental health. What I don’t get is how Pence could shake the hands of a man who tried to get him killed. I would never. Forget that!

I hear you! And you can see the look on their faces when they know you mean business like that.😊😅
