SERENA WILLIAMS AT PRESS CONFERENCE
On November 1st, Serena Williams, spoke at a press conference on the United Nations Global Youth Leadership Summit at United Nations Headquarters. Williams described sports as a universal language and activity that helps break down the barriers of poverty.
WOW KOBE’S 1st daughter resembles him ALOT! as far as the facial features, nose… The “baby” daughter takes TOTALLY after the mother (Vanessa). In fact the “baby” daughter looks totally Latin/spanish–WOW, I dont see any KOBE BRYANT features in that baby at all.
VIVICA–is looking good now and days.
SERENA–Doing the POSITIVE thing, good for her!
@ 76 Wifey:
AMEN CHURCH! I co-sign with that!
awww, cute kids.
vanessa needs to get some education… i mean, even if it’s just for the hell of it. let the negro pay to get her mind right, he did enough damage… that’s something he can never take from her once she’s got it.

@ Meatloaf, I don’t know if you’re being sarcastic with me but to answer:
=====================================================
I very serious! You don’t need anyone to validate your gift! And, no amount of sarcasism will matter! I’m sure you know what you see and feel! Everybody don’t have it like that! It might seem strange to you, but you have a unique perspective that claims wisdom, intellect, experience and common sense! Now, what are you gonna do with it?
I feel like challenging you to write a book! Asbury owes me one, but she’s playing her card real close to her breast! I’ll see who get’s published first!
@ Meatloaf, funny you should mention writing a book. I started one a long time ago but then I destroyed it. It was very deep, very revealing, very inspiring and very controversial. People weren’t ready for it; not from someone like me. And God told me to let it go. When HE thinks I am ready, It will BE.
How insightful of you to see that I AM gifted. But so are you. The light seeks the light, right?
Ever notice how there are a certain set of people on CL that always generate a certain level of gravitation, thought, discussion and debate? And not because they’re nasty or mean or just funny. They stand out from the crowd. There are a chosen few on this site. Let’s just say that I get what you are saying about the “gift.” Several Loopers have it. I know you know who they all are. So do I.
I don’t agree with everthing people say on here – and I shouldn’t! {You can learn more from debating with someone else than by arguing with yourself.} But I certainly ACCEPT other people’s point of views. And why not. I want them to accept mine, right?
I like you Meatloaf. I don’t care what nobody say.
after having looked at those children a few times, they actually arent cute. the little one looks quite weird.
Finally Miss Fox is coming back. She hasn’t looked this good in a while. Work it girl. Kobe’s babies are cute. Let’s not assume all mixed kids are cute b/c that’s not true but the girls are qt pies. Little girls wear extension braids and those ponytails all the time. Nothing is wrong with that or nail polish. She’s a girl. That’s what parent’s should do for their princesses.
Oh and let’s not underestimat Mrs. Bryant. Kobe got his eye candy and she got her bank. She knows what she’s doing and so does he. I remeber Vanessa Williams said she tried to have a conversation with her at one of the games and nasty V didn’t want to converse. She’s stuck up but what goes around already came back to her. I’m not excusing his infedelity but they all know what their lifestyle will result in. It’s all a big game.
I don’t know why Serena said that sports breaks down the barriers of poverty. Where? Why, because she, out of 20 million black women, is rich and playing in the US Open. Sports is a distraction from real life, not a cure.

Thanx sis. I don’t know, for some reason everytime I post a link its never functional. It was a picture of a black Yemenite girl. These people that own cornerstores in every hood in America are not the real Arabs. They’re descendants of the white men that raped the real Arabic women.Maybe this one will work

@#232 RENA
No disrespect to you sis, but where are your scriptures to prove or disprove? Where is your historical evidence? Please show me the scripture where Miriam says that she didn’t like Zipporah because she was a black African. The “curse” that you mentioned (Num 12:9-12) is The Lord taking away Miriam’s skin color. So I have to ask you; how could the Most High have made her white if according to you she already was? LOL. I know that you don’t think that I’m going to take your word for it, lol. I hope that you’re not going to say that Zipporah was a Cushite because she happened to be living in Ethiopia. That’s like saying that Pocahontas was a caucasian because most of the people in America now are caucasian. She was a Midianite which means that she was a descendant of Midian, the son of Abraham (Gen 25:1,2). That would make her a Shemite, not a Cushite (Gen 10th chap). The word “Jew” is not an operative term. The operative term is “Israelite”. When the Bible uses the term “nation”, it’s referring to race, not a land mass like term is used for today (Deut 32:8-10, etc.). Jews don’t come in every race, people that practice JUDAISM do, lol. Anybody can practice a religion, but you’re born into your race (Psa 147:19,20, Isa 45:25, 46:3, etc.).
@#235 Ms_Mac
Sis, I get the feeling that you’re offended and frustrated so now you’re trying to turn this into a personal thing (Matt 11:6, 24:10, John 8:40, Gal 4:16). It’s just business, lol. It has nothing to do with me “feeling better” about what I accept, lol. Here’s a question that you probably will try to evade: Does it make you “feel better” to believe that Christ was caucasian or rainbow or whatever the hell fantasy ya’ll concoct, lmao? I can prove what I believe, can you (I Thes 5:21)? If you can’t it’s just your own personal superstition that you can’t substantiate. If those scriptures don’t prove that Christ was a negro it’s because you DIDN’T WANT THEM TO (Isa 44:18). So be it, lol. What alot of negroes don’t understand is that this Word IS DEADLY SERIOUS and it ain’t somethin’ to bullshit with (REV 3:15, 16). That’s why the Lord called it a SWORD (Heb 4:12). Your post didn’t counter with any scriptures or historical research that you may have done so I’ll take it as you’re too proud to admit that you don’t know (Prov 16:28). Many people say that the Bible is not important, it’s what’s in your “heart”. The Bible cuts that (Prov 30:12, Jer 17:10). It’s always funny to me that a black man or woman has to cite 100 books and 1000 scriptures to prove someone great in history was a negro but everyone takes the white man at face value, lol (II Cor 11:14).
My rant is over, lol. Thank you to Bill. Brother you have a beautiful spirit, God bless you and keep you.
thanks judah.
I enjoy reading your comments.
They make me THINK.
be blessed sir !
Judah,
Nothing written, conveyed or proposed to ME on Concrete Loop is taken personally. NOTHING. That is because Nobody on CL can take the tears from my eyes.
When I respond to you I am merely responding. Your intelligence and ability to articulate your thoughts clearly is impressive and I respect your point of view. You generally back up your statements and I know, based on your writing, that you are a critical thinker.
I am more interested in debating or conversing with someone that knows how to creatively use verbiage and speech to enlighten me versus someone who’s vernacular is limited to profanity or slurs. As I told another Looper recently, you learn more from debating with someone than by arguing with yourself. But please don’t ever think that you or anyone else on here has the power to make me, break me, shape me or mold me. Your allowance (and the allowance of every other person on this website) into my world is based solely on my decision to come on here, swap some stories, share some laughs. Nothing less, nothing more.
Now, on to your question:
I don’t have to substantiate my beliefs because for every measure there is a counter measure. I could cite 100 verses and 1000 scriptures to PROVE my point. However, that will not prove to YOU that I am right. It would only serve to further solidify my own beliefs. This is clearly what happens each time you come on here and quote a scripture when you make your statements. Doesn’t it just make you that more convinced that you’re right? Same difference. Why would I waste my time and energy trying to convince YOU or anyone else that what I ACCEPT is a proven fact? There aren’t enough hours in a lifetime for me to accomplish that!
I do not need to prove myself to be right and wrong when it comes to the word of the Lord because the Bible, like any other written material, is subject to interpretation. Isn’t the Koran subject? Isn’t the Torah? Isn’t that why there are 1 million different sects out there?
Finally, here’s a newsflash Judah. I never stated that I accepted Christ as any color. In fact I never spoke on that issue. Christ cannot be a color to me for reasons that I will not get into here. But I will say that when I pray I don’t see White, Black, or any other color. I see the LIGHT.
If you choose to see Black, then that is wonderful for you. Who am I to tell you that you shouldn’t? However, I am too blinded by the Light to see color.
I hope this clears up your questions; none of which I tried to evade.
Peace.
ok ok, I usually don’t talk about kids, but damn danm damn Kobe and Vanessa are dead wrong for putting that clip-on ponytail on that little girl.
You can see the little girl’s hair its just those little braids that are fake like those little ugly bratz dolls they have out now that have those medusa ponytails. I have seen multiple pics of the little girl with her natural hair and she looks nice. But I think the girls are cute regardless of what their father did and what motives their mother has, thats no reflection on them.
#247 & 248 karian ~ you need a real teddy bear to put his hand right there! $exy!
Thank you, ms_mac1 ~ you know I been trying to make the quick journey from yo left thigh to your right one, but my Boo don’t play that $#!T! She’ll go out and find a collage of photos showing Halle and Tom Sawyer holding hands just to piss me off! lol

Lets be realistic, 90% of young marriages end up in divorce, it’s a fact. I feel her on “sticking by her man”, but fo real, I think she is securing her retirement. You know that ain’t gonna last, she was still in HS when they first started dating. Back in tha day the marriages lasted, it was a whole dif ball game, now a days it crazy ass hell. Oh the babies are cute and Vivica looks good.
@#251 Ms_Mac
Alright sis, you win, I’ll leave you alone. Your post reminded me of some essays that I wrote in high school. The only thing is that I couldn’t take out a red magic marker and X half the fluff out like my English teacher did, lol. I see you took the Tyson approach and tried to bite my ear off to get out of a tussle that you couldn’t win. My only point has always been that when you claim “the Light” and you don’t refer to the Light because you haven’t read it or don’t know it, you only contradict yourself which your posts show. As for the Bible being open to interpretation, that’s a lie (II Pet 1:20,21). That’s why our people cannot unify, negroes don’t want to play their position. Everybody wants to have their own “philosophy” within the Word of the Lord (Col 2:8). I’ve always wondered about people like that; why even have the Bible for if you already “know God” and “see the Light”…lol. Is it for ornamentation, because you don’t believe in it if you would compare the Koran to it. Maybe my English wasn’t clear enough when I said that it’s not a black thing, it’s a truth thing. I’ll tell a Black Panther that he/she is as big a liar for claiming Africa as a so-called black Christian is for saying that Christ is a rainbow colored person, lol. What I realize is that there is only one truth but based on your perception the truth can be whatever lie is the most self-fulfilling. Sad really.
Judah,
I always look forward to reading your though provoking posts.
I always enjoy debating/discussing with persons who QUESTION organized religion as we know it here in North America.
Sometimes we as Black Americans are afraid to question our traditional upbringing in church.
Sometimes we are ashamed or embarrassed to state that what we learned or was taught in our traditional Baptist or Pentecostal churches was wrong.
Well, I just wanted to let you know that I APPRECIATE you sir.
You ALWAYS provide THOUGHT provoking documentary.
We NEED people in this world to QUESTION traditional Religion.
What impresses me most about you is your knowledge of scripture.
Your revelation sometimes is questionable, but I understand why you state things the way YOU do it…It’s because you are Pro Black (so am I). It almost appears as if your stating that every person of importance in the Bible is/was Black. That’s cool….I don’t have a problem with that…It’s just difficult to fathom…I’ll have to study those scripture that YOU provided, during my private devotional, and ask God (the holy Spirit) for the same revelation that he has given YOU.
Anyways, I just wanted to let you know that I respect & appreciate you.
Continue to be YOU
Don’t ever change…
We need MORE people like you in this world
** I’m going to BOOKMARK this particular thread so that I can reference the scripture that YOU provided at a later date !!!
Your Brother
Bill
white people are always saying black people like whites but the cards spin the same way the whites wants blcks too but you’ll never here them say that. someone just fell in love. GEEZE
What i don’t realize is in reality how you’re not actually much more smartly-liked than you might be now. You are so intelligent. You recognize thus considerably relating to this topic, made me in my view imagine it from a lot of numerous angles. Its like women and men don’t seem to be involved except it is one thing to do with Girl gaga! Your own stuffs great. At all times deal with it up!
