I don’t see his name on the cast list.

That’s Godfrey Cambridge in the picture.

“You mean what if democrats that run these urban cities were intentionally poisoning their black population? There are definitely people stupid enough to believe that.”

Yes. Seems like both knew what was going on.

I remember when he used to e a great comedian, then he became political and all humor disappeared. Sad.

“For example, you White Folk been dumping stuff in his neighborhood in Chemtrails (well that was mostly Prince’s delivery method by the gubmint) and, of course, Colt. 45 Malt Liquor.”

Was hearing about those Chemtrails on Coast to Coast AM before I ever knew who Dick Gregory was.

As a kid I remember Gregory when he was stand up comic. He was on a lot of shows back in the 1960’s that I watched.

He was pretty funny. But after he got involved in his political activism and such he became a lot less funny.

But it was the 1960’s, never a dull moment.

“Hundreds of nodding heads in the audience.”
This confirms the Nazi concept of the useless eater.

I bought myself a little distiller for MY water...mostly because I don’t want the fluoride we have, plus our water is heavily laced with chlorine.

“Gregory announced a hunger strike on September 10, 2010, saying in a commentary published by the Centre for Research on Globalisation Web site in Montreal that he doubted the official U.S. report about the attacks on September 11, 2001.

“One thing I know is that the official government story of those events, as well as what took place that day at the Pentagon, is just that, a story. This story is not the truth, but far from it. ...

I am announcing today that I will be consuming only liquids beginning Sunday until my eightieth birthday in 2012 and until the real truth of what truly happened on that day emerges and is publicly known.”[33]

When I was a teen I did his Bahamanian diet. I didn’t need to diet but it was the cool thing to do. Some kind of powder you mixed in fruit juice.

RIP.

He went on a hunger strike to demand an investigation of Ron Brown’s death.


Wow. Did not know that. Wonder what he really thought of our first black President.
