A Toast 2 Wealth

We all know that Mo’ Nique has been married 3 times and now to her 4 year marriage to childhood friend and business partner, Sidney Hicks- more on this in a moment.

Mo’ Nique was on the Barbara Walters Oscar show this past weekend. She confidently spoke about how she knew she would be nomimated for an Oscar and many other awards. She boldly stated, ” I always knew I would be in this position. If I didn’t think I could, then why be in the game?”

She also goes on to discuss how her brother sexually abused her from age 7 to 15 years old.

Unsurprisingly, talk show host and comedienne, Mo’Nique wins “Best Supporting Actress” for her role as Mary Jones in the critically acclaimed film by Lee Daniels, the movie “Precious”.

Here’s a video of the her accepting the awards:

Natavia Lowery, the former member of the Black Finesse Modeling Troupe in North Carolina (of Spring 2002) is on trial for allegedly murdering Punk Rock Pioneer and real estate broker Linda Stein who was found beaten to death in her upscale New York apartment.  She admits Linda Stein was very abusive, often calling her out of her name, cursing at her several times.  She also admitted in a signed statement that she had hit her boss with an exercise pole after Stein blew marijuana smoke in her face and made racist comments towards her.  She admitted her intention was never to physically harm her boss, but to stop her constant harassment.  Although, Natavia has confessed to the truth of retaliation of verbal abuse and insults from her boss, could she have been the killer of Mrs. Stein? Although, Lowery is charged with murder, manslaughter and also accused of stealing tens of thousands from Stein while she was alive and withdrawing $800 with her ATM card after she was dead, a defense attorney who has been following the case says, Lowery could beat the murder rap and get a manslaughter conviction, as quoted here.

Michael Baisden who is a popular DJ on grown folks radio and well-known for being a popular guests back in the early 90’s with his favorite forewarning for those who date, “you betta recognize” has been putting down black women for weeks and the reporters of A Toast 2 Wealth are the first to honestly give you a report about this prejudice black man. Michael Baisden now regularly puts down black women on his radio talk show and drills unmarried black women as they call into his show (why do they call and set themselves up?).  He airs his ridicule nonstop while blaming black women for being single.   Michael Baisden humiliates African American women and has no respect for them or even himself as a black man.  Michael Baisden is an arrogant black man who forgets the actual statistics that explains why black women of the 21st century are still single.   He always seems to be an educated man until he started broadcasting his interviews with single black women who have never been married and questions them as if his is superior.   As a black man, what is the problem with Michael Baisden?    Why does he blame black women for not ever being married?   Why does he humiliate black women on his talk show? Now you see, this is why there will never be any unity among black people, because not only do you have black women who forget their hardships among themselves while bluntly and boldly disrespecting each other, you have black men like Michael Baisden who join them and degrade the dignity of black women.

Here we are, in another decade, 2010, and it is very scary to admit, a lot of African Americans are keeping the same frame of mind, thinking that they cannot achieve anything or not smart enough, because of their racial identity.  Many African Americans will miss out on success, simply because they fail to envision themselves as successul human beings who are capable to expand multi-million dollar or billion dollar ventures.  They sky is the limit, but-because, African Americans listen to negativity of the average African American, they limit themselves and damage their potential future of ultimate success and absolute wealth.
