Yaaawn. We see theres not much black about blackplanet when these white-tryna get some black snatch racist can come on here and say whatever.

Egyptians wore wigs-so what-I have a full head of natural nappy hair & proud of it.

& blackdiamond184 You need to zip it cause you were all up in my inbox tryna holla hard a few months ago when you saw me on the forums & I ignored your sorry ass. Hypocrite much? Yea ok.

We can think of a myriad of insults to hit below the belt-but the fact still remains Im not the one out of the bunch with a red neck and a clown mask on.

Eeeeezy.

@ThaDetroitMayor The fact that you went to jail means your not that smart-cause you got caught. Also, threatening females on the internet & anticipating going to jail again-tells me your Really not smart(save html as). Dont be mad at me ’cause you got treated like a princess and sodomized while you were ‘doing your bid’. Probably why your wearing make-up in your pic-you got alotta practice on lock-down. & if I was really a man as you claim-you would be the one getting your ass whooped-cause if I was a man I wouldnt be a sissyfied butt muncher like yourself.

Hello to all,

I am a soon to be retiring soldier of 22yrs. I have celebrated Memorial Day not just for the fallen and presently serving black military members but for all service members. I agree with those that are making positive comments on what has been done here today and do not agree with those that are stuck in the past. The only way we as a people are going to progress and finally get the respect and honor that we deserve is to come together and work as a team not as a gaggle of crabs. I want to wish all a good Memorial Day and continued good tidings throughout the rest of this year.

Thats why one of your eyes sits lower than the other. Such a fn lady, to lower myself to your level my nose would have to widen and I would have to wear a cheap wig like you. I know why your profile is set to private. You see all you can do is talk shit you would swallow that freakish atoms apple of yours if you saw me face to face, I will break you down physically, I would be back in Jackson prison.

You people are so ignorant always playing the race card especialy such a fn lady. You ain’t even fine I checked out your page. I was a black soldier, a navy seal at that. Heart of a king go screw yourself you don’t care you see everything in black and white. Black diamond 184 is completely right, The heat of combat your brother is another race and they got your back, a white soldier saved my life and risked his own to do it. I see black veterens with nobody visiting them, All you people do is talk shit on here when are you going to do something positive. Such a fn lady when was the last time you visited a VA hospital or done anything other than complain with your BS ?

@ikidas Everyone is green huh. Tell that to the black girl who was raped and murdered by white racists in the military and noone was convicted. You want us to tell our kids to become brain washed robotic genocidal maniacs-no thanks. & Im tired of seeing homeless soldiers standing on the side of the road begging for food and money because when they come out they cant even get VA care and help for school & housing by the way. Lets also not forget about the psychiatric care they dont get after the trauma of having to murder innocent ppl-too many come out of it all mentally ill.

Your a product of slave mentality at its best-stop lying to your own ppl. & dont even get me started on the homosexuality that goes on-I digress.

I am remembering black soldiers.Of course we remember all fallen soldiers.But this is a tribute for blacks.Nothing wrong with that.Why?Because if you watch the military channel you will see they only show things about white soldiers.Nothing wrong with that.But why is there only complaint when we want something for ourselves.Being a soldier myself,I appreciate this post.

I am not remebering BLACK soldiers I am remembering ALL soldiers. My grandfather fought hard in WW2 this is an american thing not a black thing. Why do I see more black people on this site with white italin mob screen names than black heroes like Powell and Martin luther king ? Be an american before your race. I visit a black soldier from WW2 in the same home my grandfather lives in and no black people visit him or take pride in him, and there are a lot still alive of all races so Black Planet stop pretending that you really give a shit.

And black people, PLEASE STOP telling our black youth that the military is no place for them. College is not for everyone. How often do you see the same kids in your neighbor hood wreaking havoc? Kids who may or may not have graduated high school, selling dope and robbing and killing instead of going and finding a job, all behind someone telling them not to join the service. Even bad kids are impressionable…. Impress the need to make something better for themselves and the military is an excellent way for many of them to do just that.

While I am proud to have been a Black Soldier in the our country’s military, I am saddened at the number of people who fail at recognizing efforts by black people for black understanding.

The writer of this piece did leave off several conflicts but let us not forget the point being made and that is WE served and continue to serve despite the disillusion that America is a Free country. The country needs the help of those women and men to continue advancing. In the Army EVERYONE is GREEN.

My 1st cousin

Doris “Dorie” Miller
Famous for firing a 50 caliber Browning anti-aircraft machine gun for 15 minutes during the attack on Pearl Harbor until he ran out of ammo.Ordinarily this is not unusual except that Dorie was the Ships Cook! He was awarded the Navy Cross for his actions beyond the call of duty.

Don’t forget
The 54th Massachusetts Infantry
One of the first black units to join the Union forces in the Civil War, the Fifty-Fourth had the eyes of the nation upon it. The company, which was largely composed of freed black slaves from various northern states, earned its fame in the July 18, 1863, battle at Battery Wagner. It was assigned the challenge of leading the assault on this Confederate fort, which was located on an island near Charleston, S.C.

In reply to the comments I sent all my BP friends a comment made from the Tuskegee Airman Photo,and in my comment I put remebering those who are often forgot about of rarely spoke of if they could give their lives for us why not give them the commendations they deserve.This is why we not remember all those who fought but for those who people just wanna forget about.

First off NEWSONE I would like to note that as SWANKness tried to put it, we fought not only in certain wars that are seen here, but every war that this country ever had. Also just to let you know that in the pic Crispus Attucks (get the name spelling right), was not a soldier at the time of his death, but he was the FIRST man to lose his life fighting for American Independence. Our people need to look up more of our history. Also, not to offend anyone but I am tired of seeing the same pics of soldiers of the same companies that they only teach in some public schools. Like the Tuskegee Airman, Buffalo Soldiers, & the 54th Regiment (Remember the movie Glory?). I mean what every happened to learning about the 761st tank battalion (WWII) which fought 183 days of CONTINUOUS COMBAT. Most children aren’t in school for that many days & they fought for us! Also does anyone know about the Fort Pillow Massacre (Civil War) in which confederate soldiers systematically executed Union soldiers (white & black) who were trying to surrender (around 360) including women & children at the fort? No offense to the one who posted this report but get all of your facts & history straight before you post it. Also I have a lot more knowledge of other wars & conflicts of Blacks fighting if anyone needs information.

Thanks BP for keeping us in the know about these brave men and women who gave their lives, many times without recognition and oft times with disrespect to live in the country we know as the United States. Let us not take lightly the sacrifices made yesterday so that we enjoy the freedoms of today.

Swank your right…but the reason this forum exists is to honor black soldiers because we(blacks) have consistently fought in wars where we werent wanted. Memorial day honors all soldiers, but without sites like BP The accomplishments and sacrifices of African Americans in the military would most likely fly under the radar. and not be counted at all.

These warriors paved the way for us. They served for a greater cause than mine but i serve today partly in their honor to represent them myself and us as a people to show our strength. I am the new Buffalo Soldier!
