I listen intently because I was lost knowing who I am as a man but confused on how to truly become an alpha male! After so much trauma from being abused for protecting my sister from a toxic boy my mom had tricked us into accepting him as a so-called customer but it was totally different! That woman allowed a man to infiltrate our home and peace to disrupt our life with his controlling ways because religion has got my mom and sisters spiritually lost and because he was allowed to infiltrate our life my sisters the very women I protected as an 15 year old have both turned their backs on me and my oldest sister knows my trauma and denies what I’m going through because of her and my mom! To this day at 45 that ignorant woman sees me as her slave son giving me what she feels I deserve after she intentionally destroyed my dreams and blinded me from knowing my true self😢
I tell black women, "One of the things we can do for our men is just smile when you see him coming." That statement alone is worth the cost of the books.
I'm sorry but smiling is not working. Action works. I get weird ass smiles from many white people when I walk by them. 🤔 Not putting you down in any way my sister but that smiling shit dont work. Married for 13 years here.
Cecil Cash I think this post went over your head...I think you’re thinking a lil too hard. I’m sure it’s more about the sentiment, the energy, the care and reverence we should show to our brothers. No ones trying to get married here lmao and I’m damn sure not worried about the weird energy I have received from white ppl. I have knowledge of self and that automatically puts them in perspective. I’m Mother Earth, I’m Eve, Oshun, Auset, Black Madonna. The human race started with me. But no offense taken. And congrats on your marriage. I hope it continues to grow in peace and love ♥️✊🏾
@@aarondigby5054 Wow, that really shows your twisted mentality. You're the reason why welfare needs to be eliminated. It's crazy that this is the first thing you would even think of to someone adopting children. 🙄
@@iluvrachellef I do agree with alot that Muslims teach for black people. But I don't really buy into religion. I was raised Baptist but I don't buy into that now that I'm am a adult and can think for myself. But you have to be a Muslim to have a Muslim woman it seems
This is what I teach my daughters. Respect and appreciate your father and that you have one full time in the home. Most Black girls will never have this!
🤷🏾♂️ I’m 37 & getting my life in order. This is my 2nd time watching this video in 2024. I love, cherish, respect, & value my BEAUTIFUL BLACK SISTAS 👩🏽🎓🖤✊🏾🙏🏾
All of you women in the comments who are praising Ali's uplifting message, pat yourselves on the back. This sista is trying to make us better wives and mothers for our men. #UpliftUs
Although I was 16 years old when this book was published,I have never new about it until now...But as a man I’ve been rejected by many women because I wasn’t the man they need it in their lives because I wasn’t making enough money and I didn’t had the standards that they were looking for.,Also in my past relationships I’ve never been appreciative and thanked for I’ve done in the household,So I have been forced to stay single because we need women to understand us...Also I have kids and always women been selfish because I wanted to raise my kids as a family even though I wasn’t with my kids mom.!But nowadays I don’t know if there is a woman that thinks this way
That was a great conversation. And remember people, you don't have to AGREE WITH EVERY SINGLE THINGS someone says to recognise that their overall message has some value.
Nonkululeko, wena alone time isn't "solitude" . but we all need room and space to think without outside interference. Her message is good but the complement to her book should be Nanny Burrows's book from the early 1900s. Happy new year .
I ran from this book in my 20s and my circle of women also rejected the book. It was the 90s and we wanted to be in our masculine energy. Once I understood these concepts I got myself together and my husband and children benefited in so many ways. I nearly destroyed my family because of lack of knowledge. When you know better you do better.
Amen 🙏🏾. This sistah is not speaking against our other beautiful sistahs. She is covering the traumas that have been bestowed upon us through the evils of Slavery in America. Amen sistahs 🙏🏾
My family were not slaves. If that was the case you’re still a slave now. Picking cotton was like working at mc Donald’s. Still being under paid. And my grandmother is 85 she said everyone was in the fields, black, white, Spanish and in between. Nothing is new under the sun.

Malcom X said black women the most disrespected yet here we are blaming women again and making us change ten times over while these men remain the same.

If our men don’t return to order true order and be men of God and lead their women they’re going to loose their women to other women and other races. No thank YOU!
Her book says. The black woman has a smaller brain, is nasty, lazy, should be slapped and dealt like the animal she is. Yeah, I'd say she said some fu%# up sh%# about Black women. But since you identity who am I to judge. No gi wash up before you get slapped on your mouth...obey!😂
Yeah that's the kind of woman you can communicate silently with With her all you need to be in is the right situation for the right look to know everything of what she's thinking and communicating.
I am a married woman and married a man from a broken drug addict home and I chose to submit and build him up fresh out the penal system and I'm here to tell you ladies all our blk men need is "God, true love and patience". I'm happy to report he has soared in his career. From a fry cook to managing multi-million dollar stores, treats me like a queen and in 16years total time together never raised his voice or had not 1 fight but it started with me submitting myself and praying and somehow he found his place in life\marriage etc..

this woman is a prophetess with precision, she foreseen our condition today as if she walked , looked, and observed us for her social and behaviour science studies for her phd and professorship. her thesis was beyond the scope given at the time and has the researched to guide those in this field today
This is proof that the more things change, the more they stay the same. This interview is nearly 30 years old, but we are still facing the same issues in our community.
Based off how they did this interview. I'm sure more cases was dragged to drive us away. And they did a good job 30 years later. Until now my eyes will be reading
It’s 2023 and we still have the same issues. Things like this aren’t pushed or made public. The system is truly set up to fail us in every aspect of our life. So sad. Hope we take heed and wake up and realize what’s really going on. We really hold the power.
Notice how you are part of the problem by coming in strong about what black women should have done as if black men need to do/change nothing? How weak are you to feel like it’s only up to the women and not the men? You are pathetic and part of the problem🤮
Hear❗️Hear❗️Hear‼️ Exemplar ❗️Magnificent❗️Black Woman and God’s Gift To “Black-Man” Kind ......‼️ That host is an “un-explainable” (dumb-Eurocentric) CHICKEN-HEAD ‼️
The zeitgeist effect of this interview is astounding! The fact that this is sooooo relevant today, 32 years later, is a true level of how the ancestors will use someone to relay a message. Sister Ali is still relaying the message to this day! Let us get back to our elders. Those who have paved the way for us. Those who can reach back and tell us what happened and guide us going forward. May the universe & ancestors continue to bless Sister Shahrazad Ali and her family. Asé!
Thanks Ms.Ali for standing up for the Black Man you are one of a kind. Please keep up the great work you are doing in a very powerful and positive way!!
During this interview she remains calm and stick to the facts, no emotional responses or catching an attitude... she continued to SMILE and laugh during the interview... she does not have on a wig, lashes or revealing clothing however still feminine...Queen at Best!
@Arthur Ashy dude we’re talking about natural beauty and modesty. Those two things are looked down upon now and days. A lot of women of today wear a face full of makeup and dress like whores. We’re trying to embrace ourselves and your comment wasn’t needed whatsoever.
Sorry what does lashes and make up have anything to do with it? I have wear make up etc and wear whatever i like but that doesn’t mean I can’t be reasoned with U might want to revise your comment buddy
As a black woman, I endorse this message! She's telling the truth and I'm sad that It took me 39 years in order to hear it from someone who looks like me.
No, this was a "BIG DEAL" in the the 90's; she was everywhere. I just think her message is being revived, because the message is more relevant today than it was in the 90's. She foresaw the direction the black community was heading and was making a move to get ahead of it. So NOTHING is or was being hidden, it's been here all along - people are looking for answers.
@@summertime8879 Yeah she holds Black women accountable for their role in the problems in the Black community. If you do that today, it's called "Bashing ".
As a Black Man, I Thank The Most High for Blessing My ears and Mind as I listen to this Black Queen. Hearing her speak so TRUE and eloquently, has made Me Refocus as The Leader of My Family.💯
Thank Allah whom appeared in the Person Of Master Fard Muhammad whom praises are due forver and His Messenger Elijah Muhammad for blessing you with this sister .
Exactly! And all these talks shows that attack black men. That's what fuck them up and why all races of men don't want them. And, in 2020 there still blaming it on the black men and society
As they shouldn't. This type of foolishness would divide us further. What we need is accountability and forgiveness by both Black men and women, not blame.
And men are doing it completely wrong, you’re suppose to express and share from your emotional stage first before your logical one. #HolisiticTeachings101 this is why most relationships fail because both genders are playing the wrong roles at the wrong times. a woman is to think before allowing her emotions to speak for her first and vice verse for the man him to express his feelings first before his thinking.
speaking from the science of black people’s bodies. There’s a different way that a BLACK man’s brain functions differently from a BLACK woman’s. Women process language in the frontal lobe and men in the parietal lobe.
@@ramcesgaston5319 Black people are the only group that doesn't understand the importance of the institution of marriage.....other groups understand the value and importance of being married. It's more than just being with someone forever! It's beneficial spiritually, economically, mentally, emotionally, and psychologically. One Day we (I hope soon) will get it!!!
@OTA She was doing her journalistic duty. If it were not for the questions she asked, the topics of the book she approached, how would you have heard the information? How would you be convinced of Sister Ali's position if she'd never had to defend it? Just change perspectives and think. Raven did her job!
They took the comment she made that black man just need to slap a black woman in the mouth and ran with it and escalated it to the point of sanctioning domestic violence. And that was sad because this sister had a lot of good information
Not going to lie, I wish I heard this YEARS ago. I will be 40 years old next month, and I'm going to be purchasing her book and studying it. She is still so very relevant.
And while I'm talking to a lady who believes that this lady is talking nonsense and she's not because she's clarifying the bad behavior women have displayed and I salute this lady on TV
Especially when she said these women would do something in our face then claim we didn’t see what we KNOW what we seen/heard….Jedi mind tric…lm going thru that now…
Ms.Shahrazad Ali teaches the real truth concerning ourselves, we need to respect and inspire each others.Ms.Ali thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom for the better of our people!!!
Who is listenin this in April 2024 ?after covid .war in Ukraine and palistine.the border crisis..& the earthquake in NYC..etc may our people have a rebirth for 2025 blessing to the civilized people 🙏
Didn’t listen then and not listening now. They want to do their own thing and when the outcome turn badly then they want Sympathy. Okay.....good luck with the sympathy game.
When she gave her the compliment at 46:00 and then basically took the compliment back she was trying to embarrass this woman. But her reply back was eloquent and honest. Now here we are in 2023 dealing with the same nonsense. We have to figure out a way to work this out. All we have is each other. ❤
Either way the point is that man and woman should be there for each other, have one another as a team will make the duo a POWER couple, yes being independent is good in all but as a whole we all need someone to carry us through the weak moments or just simply make sure we good when no one else does.
I like her face...black ppl are completely lost and confused! She is a hustler like most Muslims 12 kids she needs to write books about self love and repairing the damage done by self hate and slavery 12 kids keep your legs closed and open your mind open, 30 years later she saying the same rhetoric, totally destroying the growth process...
She speaks the truth. I've known of her since 1991 when I was in college. Her words are the light as well as salt to an open wound to those who don't understand.
Sista, I heard you years ago. Now in my 60's and single through divorce, your words ring truer now than before. It's obvious that what we're doing in our communities largely isn't working. Thanks you for speaking up!
This Sister is absolutely way beyond her time. She understands that African Ancestors were stripped of Their Own Spiritual Traditions and Values. People underestimate the Impact of Slavery, Epigenetics is The Science and Facts of Trauma being passed on a Cellular level. If this Trauma is left unhealed this is pass on from generations to generations. So she has a insightful perspective.
Jose Santana see...the entire fact that I would’ve had to explain that to this interviewer I would’ve went in. Ali was so giddy and loving, she held no punches. And she was very articulate. She just reminded me of who we are. ✊🏾
The Bible calls that Generational Curses which are the result of Soul Wounds (caused by sin, trauma, pain) look up Katie Souza she talks in depth about it.
She oozes royalty and feminine behavior. She oozes righteousness. No man can look at this woman as a so-called black man and not want her!! She is grace....
She just gave the medicine that will heal black relationships. Let go of the emotions and clear your head to truly listen. Smile every time you see him 🙌🏾
I haven't really found anything to argue with what she's saying!! 🤷🏾♀️ She really makes me think and change my perspective...Give this woman her flowers...💐💐 💐
🤔 wow did you throw the book at her?? Was her leaving a blessing or does the book unfairly bash black women? Are you married to a black woman now? I have so many questions lol I want to read this book moreso now
Being a new wife and before becoming a wife I bought her book, and I follow her in depth. I am not a perfect mother/wife, but with examples like Sister Shahrazad Ali, I respect her so much and am able to learn how to evolve and be better.
Agree but the point is at least you learn something that most isn't talking about. I too had learn something from this video. Hope we both grow and be successful and happy in everything we do.
Many of our people feast on and crave ignorance and buffoonery unfortunately these days. Our elder scholars have been given us the solutions to our problems. Social media, "memes" etc has shortened the attention span for many, and many won't even sit through a video of this length. We have much work to do, still....smh

Based off how they did this interview. I'm sure more cases was dragged to drive us away. And they did a good job 30 years later. Until now my eyes will be reading
thats cos yall suk.
Because our standards n customs language way of life all we have been robbed of in amerikkka
It’s even worst now ‼️
Actually, it's gotten worse.
It’s 2023 and we still have the same issues. Things like this aren’t pushed or made public. The system is truly set up to fail us in every aspect of our life. So sad. Hope we take heed and wake up and realize what’s really going on. We really hold the power.
Facts
If the BW had listened, understood, and acknowledged this knowledge our community would be entirely different for the better.
Notice how you are part of the problem by coming in strong about what black women should have done as if black men need to do/change nothing? How weak are you to feel like it’s only up to the women and not the men? You are pathetic and part of the problem🤮
Facts
You mean bm wouldve stopped engaging in criminal activies, creating kids out of wedlock and went to college? Hm
I have 4 of her books. I love her as much as I love Dr. Frances Cress Welsing and Queen Afua. And yes I am a black man with a black Queen
Wats da names of her books and where can i get it

@@shawndouglas669 You can find her books online at amazon, most black owned bookstores in your town have copies of it too. Goodluck!
aint no queens in your hood fool.
trust me!
I’ve NEVER in the history of hearing ever witnessed a woman talk in this manner. It’s almost unreal. Mrs. Ali is truly a wise woman.
Abisola Abiodun oh my god i love that queen... god rest her soul...
Gene Grey wow.
As'e
I know right
Gene Grey It’s unreal hearing an opposing perspective to blk male/female relationships, that isn’t watered down? Lol
This woman is amazing. I wish I would’ve heard her when I was 18. Fortunately, I’m never too old to learn!!
I love this woman as a son to his mother. She spoke up for me and my brethren when we could not speak for ourselves. Love and Respect for Mrs Ali.
It's 2021.. this is 100% accurate...like time stood still. It's scarrry
Exactly. A book she wrote 30yrs ago still applies today even more than ever is truly scary.

The zeitgeist effect of this interview is astounding! The fact that this is sooooo relevant today, 32 years later, is a true level of how the ancestors will use someone to relay a message. Sister Ali is still relaying the message to this day! Let us get back to our elders. Those who have paved the way for us. Those who can reach back and tell us what happened and guide us going forward. May the universe & ancestors continue to bless Sister Shahrazad Ali and her family. Asé!
Thanks Ms.Ali for standing up for the Black Man you are one of a kind. Please keep up the great work you are doing in a very powerful and positive way!!
During this interview she remains calm and stick to the facts, no emotional responses or catching an attitude... she continued to SMILE and laugh during the interview... she does not have on a wig, lashes or revealing clothing however still feminine...Queen at Best!
The exact type of peace I'm tryna get to🤞🏾🤗
@Arthur Ashy dude we’re talking about natural beauty and modesty. Those two things are looked down upon now and days. A lot of women of today wear a face full of makeup and dress like whores. We’re trying to embrace ourselves and your comment wasn’t needed whatsoever.

Starting to be more
They've tried to hide this woman, and her message for decades. This is my first time looking at length at her videos. She is FFFIIIRRREEE🔥🔥🔥🔥
Roger that!!!
No, this was a "BIG DEAL" in the the 90's; she was everywhere. I just think her message is being revived, because the message is more relevant today than it was in the 90's. She foresaw the direction the black community was heading and was making a move to get ahead of it. So NOTHING is or was being hidden, it's been here all along - people are looking for answers.
@@summertime8879 I see. Thanks for the clarification. I've only seen, or heard of her in the last couple of years. Like I said earlier she is fire.
dgrare100 Yes, she is fire FOR Sure!!!! I still get so much from listening to her.
@@summertime8879 Yeah she holds Black women accountable for their role in the problems in the Black community. If you do that today, it's called "Bashing ".

I've heard and listened to Dr. Ali in the early 90's. Sadly, the sistas were too busy listening to Oprah.
They would rather listen to a woman that hates black men and panders to white women.
@@qman313 You get no argument from me.
@@qman313 Absolutely.
Exactly! And all these talks shows that attack black men. That's what fuck them up and why all races of men don't want them. And, in 2020 there still blaming it on the black men and society

This was a great listen!! Love it.... Currently ordering the book in 2023... But, the light slap/tap on the mouth took me out😂.
It took me completely out 😂😂

“ We’ ve never had anyone challenge our behavior.” 😲 words of gold
Exactly!
V77 Scorpio I do all the time and that’s why I’m single lol. Oh well I’m not accepting this bullshit out here in these streets 😂😂

They would never air this on National TV in 2020
Where it aired
sure they would. just to create more discord.
Why Not ?
The me-too movement and black feminist, white supremacist tries to prevent it
As they shouldn't. This type of foolishness would divide us further. What we need is accountability and forgiveness by both Black men and women, not blame.
This interview never gets old to me. Love this woman.
All praise!! 🙌🏾❤️🙏🏽 Protect the Black family! Love and uplift the Black Man! 🗣🗣🗣
When she said I speak with logic & reason not emotion.. That explains everything you need to know.. Men can completely relate
Drop the mic
If only all men were actually like that lol
@@chrislyn1868 if only people can comprehend
And men are doing it completely wrong, you’re suppose to express and share from your emotional stage first before your logical one. #HolisiticTeachings101 this is why most relationships fail because both genders are playing the wrong roles at the wrong times. a woman is to think before allowing her emotions to speak for her first and vice verse for the man him to express his feelings first before his thinking.
speaking from the science of black people’s bodies. There’s a different way that a BLACK man’s brain functions differently from a BLACK woman’s. Women process language in the frontal lobe and men in the parietal lobe.
She tried to warn the next generation but now....
It is sad most don't want the institution of marriage today in 2020.

@OTA She was doing her journalistic duty. If it were not for the questions she asked, the topics of the book she approached, how would you have heard the information? How would you be convinced of Sister Ali's position if she'd never had to defend it? Just change perspectives and think. Raven did her job!
This is a game changer. We still don't accept it bc we caught up in our feelings. Like teenagers having tantrums.
This video needs to be put on ALL social media platforms. This interview is absolutely amazing. ❤

Right and who's audience was 95% White!
They took the comment she made that black man just need to slap a black woman in the mouth and ran with it and escalated it to the point of sanctioning domestic violence. And that was sad because this sister had a lot of good information
You are a wise person!
Long Live Kevin Samuels who always acknowledged Sister Sharzad Ali for her ground work for us as a people 🙏🏿💯💪🏿

Not going to lie, I wish I heard this YEARS ago. I will be 40 years old next month, and I'm going to be purchasing her book and studying it. She is still so very relevant.

On the side of him not behind him
May I add that she can also be "with" him.
Either way the point is that man and woman should be there for each other, have one another as a team will make the duo a POWER couple, yes being independent is good in all but as a whole we all need someone to carry us through the weak moments or just simply make sure we good when no one else does.

Absolutely...
I like her face...black ppl are completely lost and confused! She is a hustler like most Muslims 12 kids she needs to write books about self love and repairing the damage done by self hate and slavery 12 kids keep your legs closed and open your mind open, 30 years later she saying the same rhetoric, totally destroying the growth process...
She speaks the truth. I've known of her since 1991 when I was in college. Her words are the light as well as salt to an open wound to those who don't understand.
Sista, I heard you years ago. Now in my 60's and single through divorce, your words ring truer now than before. It's obvious that what we're doing in our communities largely isn't working. Thanks you for speaking up!
This Sister is absolutely way beyond her time. She understands that African Ancestors were stripped of Their Own Spiritual Traditions and Values. People underestimate the Impact of Slavery, Epigenetics is The Science and Facts of Trauma being passed on a Cellular level. If this Trauma is left unhealed this is pass on from generations to generations. So she has a insightful perspective.
Jose Santana see...the entire fact that I would’ve had to explain that to this interviewer I would’ve went in. Ali was so giddy and loving, she held no punches. And she was very articulate. She just reminded me of who we are. ✊🏾
The Bible calls that Generational Curses which are the result of Soul Wounds (caused by sin, trauma, pain) look up Katie Souza she talks in depth about it.
THAT'S WHY I CALL IT... it seems to me African American steel wearing the invisible Chains From Slavery like our ancestors did..
She comes from a long line of Ancestors who teach and offer healing.
Jose Santana I disagree, we should be at this point but we are far from our time as we allowed others to F UP our mental capacity.
I'm at the halfway mark as i post this comment, thus far this women is highly intelligent and articulate.
