She said some of the best men are in prison, surely there are some falsely arrested men in prison but there is a huge percentage of men in jail because they did things to get themselves put there.
Clearly you fail to OVERSTAND what she was saying. Many of my Brothas are in prison and are Guilty of the crimes they committed. But ask yourself, what was the cause of the mindset to do such things. What were the conditions that my brothas was in. I teach my boys…..Men have No excuses. And Correction comes by OVERSTANDING the reasons for your actions.

The Christian church, I found out is inconsistent, and actually diametrically opposed to the Bible’s teaching, and thus is part of the destruction, in my opinion, of the black family. I left Christianity in 2019 and decided to just follow The Book, because our black ancestors the Israelites followed the book. We are the People of the book, so I know I am more correct then the Christian church, because the book says clearly: Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
I’m white as a piece xerox paper and love this woman. She speaks truth with empathy. Politicians ruined the black community because they were a threat.
no, WHITE people who became politicians implemented legislation that helped to secure the RUIN of the black community. they didnt work alone. they were representatives of a majority white populace that supported their actions.
I respect how Shahrazad has long understood and appreciated the differences among people of African descent and why we need to acknowledge them. And how she sees the ongoing impact of self hatred and there is no winning with an inferiority complex.
I agree with your comment but without discrediting her intelligence or accomplishments we shouldn't ignore the harmful and false aspects of her message.
@@TheAtomC It's amazing that I prefaced my comment by saying I meant no disrespect to her or her accomplishments,that you feel I should ignore the nonsense because she said or did good things in the past. Sorry, but I'm not a hypocrite and don't brown nose people, even if they are celebrities. Nobody is perfect, not me or her. She is obviously indoctrinated by the Abrahamic Religions. She endorses misogyny and claims that God is a man? How did she determine that? Does her God have a penis and get horny like all other male species on this planet? 😂😂 I am a black man and would never teach my daughters the garbage that a man is superior to her because a 2,000 year old book of Jewish mythology and allegorIes, written by bronze age men, full of errors and contradictions and that is wrong historically, scientifically and morally, says so. It is very harmful to the black community when children and parents are fed that nonsense while we have countries with female presidents in the 21st century. PS : I never claimed to be an atheist but all 3 Abrahamic religions are demonstrably false by anyone who is willing to do honest research.
Ive neve rin my life met a black woman with an inferiority complex. You are the loudest proudest most audacious and confrontational people in the world BY A MILE!. The notion black people have inferiority is insane to me. You have been gassed up by media and tv and movies for DECADES if anything your delusional about the way the world views you. Seriously study body language and walk around your city. ONLY white men and woman will have slumped shoulders and be avoiding eye contact out of self hatred.
Statistically, the number one problem is fatherlessness in the black community. From fatherlessness, loneliness is bound to occur, then exponentially compound through upbringing and into adulthood. Fatherlessness leads to so many other issues.
I agree. Next on the list may be Religion. Here you have an intelligent and accomplished black female endorsing misogyny and claiming God is a man? How does she know that? Does God have a penis and get horny like all other men? 😂 She, like so many others in the black community is a victim of indoctrination. I'm a black man and would never teach my daughter she is inferior to a man because a 2000 year old book, of Jewish mythology and allegories, written by bronze age men, full of errors and contradictions that fails historically, scientifically and morally and was forced down our ancestors throats by their colonial slave masters, says so We have female presidents of countries in the 21st century. Feeding that nonsense to black parents and children is harmful and prevents progress in our community. Not understanding logic, facts, science, real history, skepticism, rational thought and facts like the theory of evolution will also lead to many problems.
@@patricia2007 TWO parents are a MUST. It's what God intended with Creation. My father raised my brother and I without our mom. He got lucky and was blessed when fighting for us in the courts when my mother filed divorce. She filed because she was unhappy with it. Her allegations towards my dad were crazy and his friends were there to back him up. He was the more mature person with the resources, and showed his love with action. He kept tons of records to use in court for proof too: the judge gave us to him, but my dad had to give up a lot to my mom. She's still to this day an absolute child, and doesn't realize how bad she screwed up my family. That includes me and my brother's upbringing.

I’m glad women aren’t afraid of being alone. That was a fear tactic that was instilled early into the minds of young women. It is no longer a threat. Women would rather live peaceful, safe lives than to have a man sucking the youth and life force out them.

It is misleading to say that some of our best brothers are in prison. Most of our men in prison have mental issues that need to be treated and managed in constructive ways if they will ever be high functioning in society. Many of our children are born of parents who are incapable of good parenting and that's what needs to be addressed. The math on this just does not work out for the better.

@michelle-loraejones5169 A course you have women of all races that are lonely, single, unmarried, without children, yet sister Shahrazad only concern is with Blackwomen so she is speaking on the reasons that our women seem to be the ones that are mostly lonely. Plus not necessary if Blackwomen ate lonely are us as Blackmen lonely, many of us are with Caucasian women & other darker women.
She is absolutely correct. Back when my husband and I were together, He had gotten laid off. We were young with a family and started struggling. A Wwoman was in our neighborhood, and she was taking surveys. She told me that if my husband and I weren't together, they could help with food and rent.
That was back then. Things have changed. Men on the dole is on the rise. I doubt that many women traded in their men for food stamps, unless he was just plain shiftless.
That hasn't been the case since the 60s and even when it was it was on like that for like 2 or 3 years. No one is keeping these mennout of the home. There are literally families on assistance as we speak.
😂😂😂😂 what's crazy is black women have failed to realize that it because the men in our community are supposed to be a le to provide for their families. If the man is in the house, he needs to be able to provide the necessities needed for a family to function.
@@fantasia19 Black women has never failed to remember or understand that the man should be the head . The man has failed to be in his role, It's too much for him.

@@RobertCharles-i1k I agree with you to a point. She said @2:18, the yt man told BW to take welfare. No, they chose welfare and the government got rid of their men out of the house, as a result of that choice. Now there are more yt women on welfare than BW, and their husbands are still in the household. Why white welfare recipients were still able to keep their men in the household, but black welfare recipients couldn't at all? Why the different standards? Furthermore, why BW took that option anyway? Did they even question the double standard, and if so, why so many of them took that bad deal?
@@southpaw2k1 Very well said. I really think religion has been another tool to keep us in bondage . We aren't taught skills like critical thinking, logic, history and rational thinking.

"Dear Sister Shahrazad, I am not concerned with poetry."...."So I didn't write another poem..." With all due respect, DO NOT EVER withhold/disregard/bury your gifts because someone on this earth "doesn't like" what you do, I don't care WHO it is! Unless it is unrighteous or The Most High God stops you, then DO IT even if it edifies only 1 person! The works of many poets/artists still live on well past their existence (sometimes our gifts are for future generations). I agreed with all other points shared except this 1 thing that needed to be seriously addressed. She shared very excellent words of wisdom otherwise.
I like her but disagree with some of it. Some of our best are in prison???? Naw. Some of our best are attending college, trade schools, military, Church leaders, married black men taking care of their families vs falling into the traps.
I see people complaining about "some of our best men are in prison".........Many of the black panthers went to prison. Similar to some BM before incarceration, realized their condition and could not tolerate(one day) in servitude under WS on somebody's job. They (obviously) got themselves in trouble, yet they were brave enough to take risks. Those are the kinds of BM Ms.Ali is talking about (not violent crimes)..
Those can’t be the type of men she’s talking about we haven’t had a group like the black panthers SINCE the black panthers. nevertheless a single individual in the likeness of MLK, Malcolm x, or Garvey. The black men THEN and the black men today are two different species. Hell you got black men today complaining about being the providers of THEIR household a foreign concept in those times. Black men arguing that’s it’s “notnot Their responsibility” to come to the aide of a black sister the very opposite of what groups like the black panthers stood for. The bums of today committing mass shootings in neighborhoods but buckle when the white man shows up ARE NOT OUR BEST MEN PLEASE!
This is why I’m careful not to listen to her. Sorry, but as much as people say she’s this big source of wisdom she doesn’t hold black men accountable for damages done to our community like a real person would. Not all black men are bad but I notice she avoids calling them out on their behavior.

I DO WANT TO KNOW WHAT REALLY IS ABOUT US that people see from the outside that WE don't! ARE WE MORE POWERFUL AS A PEOPLE THAN WHAT WE BELIEVE?

Facts! Some of our best man are not in prison.. some of our best men are married to black women raising their families and the 'other best of our black men" have gotten married to non black women and are contributing to their communities 🤦🏾♀️
The key word is “Some” and it’s true. Many of our brothers, who are incarcerated, would not allow some of the stuff to go down that’s going down without a fight. A lot of our brothers out here are weak and are allowing everybody to run over us from the politicians, the government, Minister’s, our women, and even our children. Many of our brothers, who have lost their freedom would stand up against many of the things happening in society that we do not agree with. And that is what she is talking about.
@@rashardstallworth9240 that triggered our brother. It’s sad that when a sister acknowledges the direness of our predicament our own feels the need to devalue brothers further to validate themselves
How can some of the best men be in prison? They committed a crime to be in there, correct? Yes, there may be some in prison who were falsely accused, but this is an absolute minority in the big picture. The vast majority of men in prison are guilty as charged, how could they be some of the best men?

Happiness is in deed referenced several times in the Bible. It regards that those fearing and showing trust in Jehovah are happy, amongst other things.
Im a black man and don't understand how a female can appreciate someone who advocates for misogyny. How do you do it? Isn't that a form of self hatred or requires low self esteem. I could never tell my daughter such things. * Your comment sounds very feminine so im assuming your a female. 😂
Haven't listened yet but the title reminds me of the study that shows men will be lonely due to not building community connections with church or their families. Cant wait to see what she says about women
It’s true women don’t need men but God says “It’s not good for man to be alone.I will make him a helper..a helpmate.” God also said a man who finds a wife “finds a good thing.”
I've never met a lonely black woman in my entire life. We want to be left alone. Aren't yall tired of trying to convince us that we're not happy? It would be more useful for you to fix yourselves. Trust me, it works!
There is no deeper, more than half of the bw in the comments agree that we’d rather be alone than to be in bad company. This isn’t the 1500s where men brung home the bacon so we had to kind of deal with whatever we got. She’s pandering regurgitating the same pick me sentiments she always has for years. As above stated LEAVE BLACK WOMEN ALONE. We are not strung out on drugs or suffering from depression due to the lack thereof “bm” to choose from. It’s unfortunate but we are graduating top of our classes, traveling, doing the spiritual work , accumulating massive amounts of wealth in order words living our best lives. Don’t project onto us you all’s “loneliness” instead we are “ALONE” one is a choice the other is not! Good day
😂😂😂 seriously, they are really becoming annoying how they are so consistent in keeping black women stuck here. We already know we have the power , Shazard Ali and other black male worshippering women can try to gaslight us, but it's over. Black men need to continue procreation with white women and leave us alone already. We're really not playing with black men they need to get over it.
So I agree with her but I do believe for everyone man there’s eight women, so how does everybody find a partner will match up some people just might not never have anybody

Queen the etymology of it means prostitute!
She said some of the best men are in prison, surely there are some falsely arrested men in prison but there is a huge percentage of men in jail because they did things to get themselves put there.
Clearly you fail to OVERSTAND what she was saying. Many of my Brothas are in prison and are Guilty of the crimes they committed. But ask yourself, what was the cause of the mindset to do such things. What were the conditions that my brothas was in. I teach my boys…..Men have No excuses. And Correction comes by OVERSTANDING the reasons for your actions. Consequences of your actions are a guarantee. There are some GREAT MEN WITH GREAT MINDS. WITH HEART AND LEADERSHIP SKILLS BEHIND THOSE WALLS.

Shahrazad Ali says many things that are true, but the Black Christian church is afraid to address those things.
That’s why I left in 2011
That ain't gonna happen because the Black church only cares about Money, and....is ran by the Masonic Order... plain and simple...
Facts
@@MinnesotaEverything I mentally checked out in 2012 and physically left in 2014 best decision ever made and haven't looked back.
The Christian church, I found out is inconsistent, and actually diametrically opposed to the Bible’s teaching, and thus is part of the destruction, in my opinion, of the black family. I left Christianity in 2019 and decided to just follow The Book, because our black ancestors the Israelites followed the book. We are the People of the book, so I know I am more correct then the Christian church, because the book says clearly:
Ecclesiastes 12:13
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
I’m white as a piece xerox paper and love this woman. She speaks truth with empathy. Politicians ruined the black community because they were a threat.
I appreciate you, for speaking truth to life.

no, WHITE people who became politicians implemented legislation that helped to secure the RUIN of the black community. they didnt work alone. they were representatives of a majority white populace that supported their actions.
Appreciate you acknowledging this🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for speaking the truth 💯
I respect how Shahrazad has long understood and appreciated the differences among people of African descent and why we need to acknowledge them. And how she sees the ongoing impact of self hatred and there is no winning with an inferiority complex.
I agree with your comment but without discrediting her intelligence or accomplishments we shouldn't ignore the harmful and false aspects of her message.
@@RobertCharles-i1kAccording to you, what are her "harmful and false aspects of her message"? Why don't you focus on what she's contributed.
@@TheAtomC
It's amazing that I prefaced my comment by saying I meant no disrespect to her or her accomplishments,that you feel I should ignore the nonsense because she said or did good things in the past. Sorry, but I'm not a hypocrite and don't brown nose people, even if they are celebrities. Nobody is perfect, not me or her.
She is obviously indoctrinated by the Abrahamic Religions. She endorses misogyny and claims that God is a man? How did she determine that? Does her God have a penis and get horny like all other male species on this planet? 😂😂
I am a black man and would never teach my daughters the garbage that a man is superior to her because a 2,000 year old book of Jewish mythology and allegorIes, written by bronze age men, full of errors and contradictions and that is wrong historically, scientifically and morally, says so.
It is very harmful to the black community when children and parents are fed that nonsense while we have countries with female presidents in the 21st century.
PS : I never claimed to be an atheist but all 3 Abrahamic religions are demonstrably false by anyone who is willing to do honest research.
Ive neve rin my life met a black woman with an inferiority complex. You are the loudest proudest most audacious and confrontational people in the world BY A MILE!. The notion black people have inferiority is insane to me. You have been gassed up by media and tv and movies for DECADES if anything your delusional about the way the world views you. Seriously study body language and walk around your city. ONLY white men and woman will have slumped shoulders and be avoiding eye contact out of self hatred.
we aren't african
Statistically, the number one problem is fatherlessness in the black community. From fatherlessness, loneliness is bound to occur, then exponentially compound through upbringing and into adulthood. Fatherlessness leads to so many other issues.
I agree. Next on the list may be Religion. Here you have an intelligent and accomplished black female endorsing misogyny and claiming God is a man? How does she know that?
Does God have a penis and get horny like all other men? 😂
She, like so many others in the black community is a victim of indoctrination.
I'm a black man and would never teach my daughter she is inferior to a man because a 2000 year old book, of Jewish mythology and allegories, written by bronze age men, full of errors and contradictions that fails historically, scientifically and morally and was forced down our ancestors throats by their colonial slave masters, says so
We have female presidents of countries in the 21st century. Feeding that nonsense to black parents and children is harmful and prevents progress in our community.
Not understanding logic, facts, science, real history, skepticism, rational thought and facts like the theory of evolution will also lead to many problems.
Yea and people say "absent fathers are not the problem" then turn around and say "you NEED fathers in the home"
@@patricia2007 TWO parents are a MUST. It's what God intended with Creation.
My father raised my brother and I without our mom. He got lucky and was blessed when fighting for us in the courts when my mother filed divorce. She filed because she was unhappy with it. Her allegations towards my dad were crazy and his friends were there to back him up. He was the more mature person with the resources, and showed his love with action. He kept tons of records to use in court for proof too: the judge gave us to him, but my dad had to give up a lot to my mom.
She's still to this day an absolute child, and doesn't realize how bad she screwed up my family. That includes me and my brother's upbringing. She's the primordial, the precursor to a majority of women in this post-modern culture/age.
@@patricia2007
Anyone who says "absent" Fathers
isn't a big disadvantage is a fool. The black community has a few problems and, that's just one of them.
Right if absent fathers isn't disadvantageous, then why did they and continue to make policy to keep black fathers out of the home. Because they know he is important and vital to having a nuclear family or basic social unit.
Sometimes choosing better, means choosing to be alone.
I’m glad women aren’t afraid of being alone. That was a fear tactic that was instilled early into the minds of young women. It is no longer a threat. Women would rather live peaceful, safe lives than to have a man sucking the youth and life force out them.

It is misleading to say that some of our best brothers are in prison. Most of our men in prison have mental issues that need to be treated and managed in constructive ways if they will ever be high functioning in society. Many of our children are born of parents who are incapable of good parenting and that's what needs to be addressed. The math on this just does not work out for the better.
Over 50% are in for one crime. They were not living a criminal lifestyle before that one incident.
That one confused me too considering so many violent woman murdering, drug dealing, community destroying black men are in prison… she sounded like the typical woman who purposely chooses bad men that’s free and then says “the good men are in prison”

Shahrazad at a young age was already a student of her spiritual father and her master teacher The Most Honorable Messager Elijah Muhammad (who was a extremely wise Blackman, who taught wise Black men such as Malcolm X, The Honorable Minsiter Louis Farrakhan & Muhammad Ali) , who taught and guide her extremely right.
@@naaimshareef which Elijah ? The one that was sleeping with women in the noi getting them pregnant and not making them wives? The one that put a gag order on Malcolm because he told the truth?

yet sister Shahrazad only concern is with Blackwomen so she is speaking on the reasons that our women seem to be the ones that are mostly lonely. Plus not necessary if Blackwomen ate lonely are us as Blackmen lonely, many of us are with Caucasian women & other darker women.
She is absolutely correct.
Back when my husband and I were together, He had gotten laid off. We were young with a family and started struggling.
A Wwoman was in our neighborhood, and she was taking surveys. She told me that if my husband and I weren't together, they could help with food and rent.
That was back then. Things have changed. Men on the dole is on the rise. I doubt that many women traded in their men for food stamps, unless he was just plain shiftless.
That hasn't been the case since the 60s and even when it was it was on like that for like 2 or 3 years. No one is keeping these mennout of the home. There are literally families on assistance as we speak.
😂😂😂😂 what's crazy is black women have failed to realize that it because the men in our community are supposed to be a le to provide for their families. If the man is in the house, he needs to be able to provide the necessities needed for a family to function.

Why white welfare recipients were still able to keep their men in the household, but black welfare recipients couldn't at all? Why the different standards?

That she tell you how dysfunctional and destructive this woman's message is....and has always been. She, like the BC, is annialistic toward Black women and represents internalized misogynoir and the real self-hatred.
I do wish she would've clarified that statement. However, I know that she's NOT glorifying criminal behavior. I think she means that these men had great potential and are very talented and skilled but took the wrong path.
I could listen to the dr. for hours.🗣💯
NOTHING BUT RESPECT.......💯
You are the Breath of Fresh Air the World Needs Now, A Wise Woman buildeth her House with her hands, The Princess daughter of the King be Blessed 😇🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤
“You don’t have to believe in God, bc he believes in you” A word!!!!
💯
She Is !!!🔥🔥🔥 When she talked about the importance of our name, that did it for me 😧
She's aged gracefully!
Desperation and loneliness are allies...
😊..I love her!!!
So True"! when it's trials of life are heavy it' delay your creativity ability" So
Clear your path!! This is A personal comment!!
It represent Me! Thank you Sister Shahrazad!!!✌️❤️
Happiness is in deed referenced several times in the Bible. It regards that those fearing and showing trust in Jehovah are happy, amongst other things.
Joy and peace is.
I love the way she said write poetry for yourself it's a good way to. express yourself it's healthy
I feel my spirit at ease when I hear her speak 🏆
Im a black man and don't understand how a female can appreciate someone who advocates for misogyny. How do you do it? Isn't that a form of self hatred or requires low self esteem. I could never tell my daughter such things.
* Your comment sounds very feminine so im assuming your a female. 😂
That's a strong woman God Bless speaking facts,,
Tell it all and thank you!
Haven't listened yet but the title reminds me of the study that shows men will be lonely due to not building community connections with church or their families. Cant wait to see what she says about women
Prison , mental health, rejection.
Only one is by choice a lot of the time.
I agree .
Peace love and respect to Shahrazad Ali ✊🏾💯💙
It’s true women don’t need men but God says “It’s not good for man to be alone.I will make him a helper..a helpmate.” God also said a man who finds a wife “finds a good thing.”
If women don't need men, women should be doing the dangerous hard labor jobs men normally do in large numbers?
I for one am soooo glad you have her on for I never knew. Peace and blessings. Love you elder Ali. Please give her a bigger platform. 🙏
I've never met a lonely black woman in my entire life. We want to be left alone. Aren't yall tired of trying to convince us that we're not happy? It would be more useful for you to fix yourselves. Trust me, it works!
You gotta think deeper into what she means
There is no deeper, more than half of the bw in the comments agree that we’d rather be alone than to be in bad company. This isn’t the 1500s where men brung home the bacon so we had to kind of deal with whatever we got. She’s pandering regurgitating the same pick me sentiments she always has for years. As above stated LEAVE BLACK WOMEN ALONE. We are not strung out on drugs or suffering from depression due to the lack thereof “bm” to choose from. It’s unfortunate but we are graduating top of our classes, traveling, doing the spiritual work , accumulating massive amounts of wealth in order words living our best lives. Don’t project onto us you all’s “loneliness” instead we are “ALONE” one is a choice the other is not! Good day
😂😂😂 seriously, they are really becoming annoying how they are so consistent in keeping black women stuck here. We already know we have the power , Shazard Ali and other black male worshippering women can try to gaslight us, but it's over. Black men need to continue procreation with white women and leave us alone already. We're really not playing with black men they need to get over it.
👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
you said it sis finally
One of her best interviews ❤
So I agree with her but I do believe for everyone man there’s eight women, so how does everybody find a partner will match up some people just might not never have anybody
Maybe if there were less baby deletions, that number would be more balanced.
I totally agree. We have to do better at society, but we’re only human born to make mistakes
Black women must date and marry out and up.
