Damn Sista Nurse.
Got your boy up here with a lump in his throat.
Bold examples of manhood would be impossible without unapologetic displays of femininity and disarming acts of sweetness.
Forever grateful.
Happy Thanksgiving, tgn, and to the rest of the DV motley crew :-)

'Dem TSO niggas (the OGs) were the REALEST!! Watching Denmark do his thing is like watching one of my sons rush for 150 yards on 10 carries.
^second that. :) -Keep doing your thing DV.
However I am going to chill on the Thanksgiving greetings because of what DV challenges us to do.
Research History:
The Real Deal behind TDay.
" In the 8th century, African Muslims (Moors) conquered Spain, Portugal and France and controlled it for over 700 years. This, of course, threatened European Christians, or rather “Western Civilization.” There were constant efforts to fight them back and the Pope of Rome, in league with Queen Isabella, sent Cardinal Ximenos to Spain to murder anyone that resisted Christianity.
Sound familiar?
These genocidal policies were justified by the previous Pope Nicholas in 1452, who called for the King of Portugal to invade, search out, vanquish, and subdue all Muslims and pagans, whatsoever, and other enemies of Christ.
In Spain, on November 25, 1491, a dude named Santiago defeated the last Muslim stronghold and on that day King Ferdinand gave thanks to God for this victory and the Pope of Rome declared this day to forever be a day of Thanksgiving for all European Christians. This is where the religious and political motivations that formulated the " white supremacist " mindset were formulated and when the foundations for the economic colonization of the Americas and its Native peoples were developed.
Thanksgiving in the United States is a part of a tradition that celebrates the subjugation of non-Western people for colonial purposes. Its roots are more directly connected to the events that occurred in the Northeast in the year 1637, when 700 men, women, and children of the Pequot Tribe, gathered for their “Annual Green Corn Dance” in the area that is now known as Groton, Connecticut.
While they were gathered in this place of meeting, they were surrounded and attacked by mercenaries of the English and Dutch. The Indigenous people were ordered from their ceremonial structures and as they came forth, they were shot down. The rest were burned alive in their homes. The next day, the Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony declared a day of Thanksgiving, thanking God that they had eliminated over 700 Pequots. Subsequently, every Thanksgiving Day ordained by a Governor or President since was to honor that victory, thanking God that the “battle” had been won. The holiday on the 3rd Thursday of November we celebrate is in observation of these instances and upholds this colonial mentality."-end quote
Celebrate?
Thank God for Genocide? Wow.
Naw DV, Happy "Chill with your family "Day.
