20 Quote Sounds of Caring Whites of Concerns of Blacks
"I've seen some things I thought I would never see here [on Maryland's Eastern Shore]."


"Do you know how [emotionally] hard it is? . . . you know, the separation of living in the white world when you have black friends from school or on the job."


"I mean, what do you say to your kids?! . . . No, you can't hang around him or her because they're a person of color. And that's not happening in this town."


"If you ever want to see true racism, go to church on Sunday mornings where white faith-based lectures reflect through us."


"That is Islam faith, hell it ain't no better. It started from some
white men down South."


"It seems to me that religious black folks treat other blacks the same way as that racism stuff."
"Aww, come on! Why can't they have that or do that?"


"I really would like to help you, but I just can't. I'm sorry [to a person of color]."


"I wish you well, you should really move on."


"What should I say, black? colored? Or a person of color? I know that I'm not suppose to say the "nigger" word."
"We have so few blacks here. We try to help them as much as we can."


"It's okay if you want to move on, child. Just don't forget about your kinfolk, here?"


"Why can't black folks celebrate Christmas? What do you say to a black child when they see my Christmas decorations?"


"Never in my lifetime will I see that happen. I'm just being real with you."


"I knew all of this was going on, racism or you call it discrimination, you know, but who was I going to tell it to?! I sure as hell wasn't going to tell it to my [white] neighbor."


"Sometimes it's more racially motivated than misbehaving actions."


"Why is it that hundreds of whites can gather and have a nice evening out, but blacks can't seem to do that, without law enforcement or some type of security?"


"We all make do with what we have, and blacks shouldn't expect much more [than the normal local pay levels], financially."


"You've gone too far, exceeded expectations. I'm proud of you, but do the people around you, you know black people, do they feel the same way, or does it matter to you?"


"I know your body parts are like mine, just a different color and maybe fuller or longer."


"You can become anything that you want. You may have to endure a different kind of attitude as you go higher."


"All I am saying to you is take pride in your work: if you are going to do something, no matter great or small, do it to the best of your ability and don't complain when you come up on challenges doing it."

May 24:

(Maryland)  You know what—-Queen Anne’s Sheriff department white-men staff, if you don’t want to see or my things in your county or riding the highway to get across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge any longer, take my monument gift down in the center of  the courtyard in the City of Centreville. Then, you will never have to look at me again. No, uh-huh, family, take it down. (stern voice to the Sheriff dept.) "You take it down."

 

 

May 20:

(Maryland) A poem for Mental Health Awareness Month.

Poem Title: Remember When You Were Called, When You Wouldn't Take a Police Report

 

"Hello Officer, this is a non-emergency call."


Remember when I called you, when in the rentals, he took the doors off their hinges. "What's wrong? Why are you so angry with your life's experiences right now?"

 

Remember when I called you, when they kept rear-ending me and totaling my vehicles?--that first began as a teenager of color from a dominant middle-income black family on the Shore.


Remember when I called you, when working for the local schools, it became clear that you and they didn't want an educator of color to help with disadvantaged children, and the allotted grant funding attached at the state and federal level?

 
Remember when I called you, when at college, they refused to return my work and education portfolio, departments closed, and they refused to allow me to graduate under the closed dual major program?


Remember when I called you, when at the hospital, they wouldn't verify my third pregnancy and only laughed?--while my regular doctor took such matters into his own hands and did what he could.


Remember when I called you, when my grandmother also tried to get such formal understanding of my pregnancy under such measures that she could do to protect me and her unborn grandchild?


Remember when they called you, when my husband ran into his white mistress's vehicle?--and the entire local community didn't want me or my car insurance company to know about the incident.


That is when you were called and could have saved him from getting involved in a false marriage action and could have saved us the community from further harm . . . and now,


I called you to say that my inherited homes and vehicles, and my most recent vehicles are all gone, not in my possession. I called you to let you know that I cared for the people, my people, in my neighborhood(s). I called you. I called you. I called you on behalf of outsiders who had to endure such trauma of hearing and accepting such truths of my story of life's experiences. I called you. I called you. And now, neither I nor the entire community here on the Shore makes calls to you. No longer call you. No longer call you. On behalf of our communities, we hope your daily job tasks are rurally minimal, not much work to do in this area, and more pleasant, while comprehending this poem, as you serve us until your retirement, local Maryland law and order staff representatives.

 

April 28:

(Maryland) I want to announce that I'm officially a grandmother again! My oldest daughter, Lanene, and her husband, Chris, had a chunky baby boy yesterday (4.28.25). (I want to spell his name correctly. At first, his name was going to be Zaiden.) Jahmir's baby brother is weighing in at slightly over 7 pounds with adorable chubby cheeks. He has a full head of black hair already. This was Lanene's last pregnancy, and we, family and friends, reminded her along the way to enjoy every moment, and instructed her to take lots of pictures of her blooming belly. Thank you, Lanene and Chris, for bringing, yet, another new life into the earth realm.

 

Interesting: Did you know that when new moms have a baby back-to-back or a stairstep pregnancy (no gaps in between pregnancies), moms in this category typically will have a C-section to avoid major birthing complications--if they had a C-section prior?


(GICPA Spiritual -- using the name Jesus, Holy Spirit, or God)
Dear God, I promise to give him, both boys, lots of hugs and kisses. I promise to teach him with the vision that I have for my immediate multiracial crew (my kids, their kids, and me), extended family, my relationship with my friends, and my company brand.  Lord, I am just a non-disabled person who has access to all of this country's programs associated with being disabled. There have been days where it has really been challenging to understand such a reality for not only me, but for my family sets to understand how easy it was to be scammed in such a way, God! (How am I supposed to bring stand-up comedy, some laughter to people, of such hellish mistakes in my life?) . . . May the Holy Spirit and I use such life experience to expand my work skill set, and to help others, in my remaining years as a living being on your Earth, Lord. Allow us, my family sets, to heal from such trauma. You know, I was formerly married on March 28, 1991, and I thank you, Lord, for allowing the date of the 28th to have new meaning, new joy in my life--while realizing that there are many families not able to bare children or may not like the idea of younger generations being birthed.


God, you know best: I am grateful that she had a C-section because her vagina area would have been ripped bringing his Native American shaped head and chubby cheeks out into your world--like when I had his mother. Thank you, again, for her skilled healthcare team and other professionals.


And lastly, J-e-s-u-s, America's economy isn't doing so well right now; it's troubled right now. In over 90 years, national neighbors have never had to endure such financial times without government intervention or financial welfare assistance. Lord, you know, across America, the current generations of human beings have never seen calendar dates without financial welfare programs such as the Social Security Administration, HUD's Section 8 (HCVP) Program funding, Extreme Weather-Related Program funding, and Mortgage Assistance Program funding. Lord, I have told them, your earthly beings and Government as a whole, "We need a federal Universal Subsidized Income "USI," an  indefinite program of no less than a mandatory $2,000 promised income per month from our government."  Amen. Of writing this comment, I am in sincere appreciation for our World's Racial Identity Layers.

 

April 25:

(Maryland) To those involved in me being a fraud victim of legal cases described in my published memoir and discussions (online, and locally), I just want to say, again, that I understand that you all addressed such issues with local law enforcement. Unfortunately, that's the problem. You were instructed by law enforcement who can not help in "civil" matters. The described matters were civil or social in nature, first. Therefore, law enforcement should not have been advising anyone on the cases. Now, if law enforcement continues to instruct on such things, they should have allowed my police reports to be archived in case of further discussions, or review (beginning in 1996). 


"Real estate, locally, is becoming very valuable--even if former home owners are not paid much for their property and land(s)."

Lastly, regarding my property assumption(s) in both Kent and Queen Anne's County, MD, there are no alleged assumptions being made by me. I am the valid heir of such properties that have since been sold. My witnesses, our witnesses, are both state and federal agencies or staff. There is nothing more to discuss with anyone, including law enforcement (who handles criminal things or issues vs. civil or community social issues). Such inaccurate information by others is just another scam attempt happening on Maryland's Eastern Shore involving you and me--if we allow such attention or focus again.

 

 

April 6:

(Maryland) In the recent weeks, my two-vehicle fleet (SUV, pickup truck) was traded in (mistakenly, or unmistakenly). Now, I have to unfortunately pass on the cost of my new fleet (SUVs) to my company's consumers. Return-trip discounts will now be smaller, and fare prices firmer w/o option of negotiating. As always, tips are appreciated. In my company's efforts in serving Eastern Shore neighbors and tourists, payment is required before services are rendered.

 

 

March 23:  

(Maryland). I am the sole heir, personal representative, and Interested Person of Oscar Hicks's estate and lands on Maryland's Eastern Shore. I am the sole heir, personal representative, and Interested Person of Ethel Hicks's estate and lands on Maryland's Eastern Shore. I am the Interested Party of all lands now and formerly owned by the Hicks family line (born of Oscar and Ethel Hicks). I am the sole heir, and Interested Person of Nora (Hicks) Wilson Wright's estate and lands on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

I am the sole heir, and Interested Person of William L. Wright's estate and lands on Maryland's Eastern Shore. I am the Interested Person of all lands now and formerly owned by the Wright family line in the Ewingville Housing Community in northern Queen Anne's County, MD.
Religious language: As my duty of sole heir, I accept the United Methodists, and Masonic ranking position with all powers in succession of the deceased Oscar Hicks, Ethel Hicks, Nora Hicks Wilson Wright, and William L. Wright.
 

"Don't forget that light (truth) travels faster than the sound of noise. So chatter on my enemies and those who want everything I legally own."

 

March 22: It has come to my attention--

In so saying, I have been saying or making the same statement about my involvement in the SSI/Social Security Administration scam for years. (My involvement officially ended via the state in 2009.) Now, there are situations involving other companies, agencies, and facilities that must reprimand their own internal staff for keeping me as a client without a request from anyone or the State of Maryland. They are saying it's not my fault, but I have empathy for their management because I know what I have gone through in trying to explain my case for removal to others.  I tried. As I tried to tell them: now their management staff are saying the same thing! ...  having me wrongfully documented as their client has cost or is costing them thousands of dollars!!!! And all that our State is saying, "I told you she is no longer a client of .... I told you to take the necessary actions of removing her as your client. Or "She is a Marylander who is not on SSI anymore, we no longer have a comment for you."

 

Law Enforcement
We don't know who did this except for local law enforcement in jurisdictions. There is no government agency, nationally, that will keep active, for over 30 years, even in the state of Maryland, a client, without proper protocols: Maryland has given the statement of "A full-time college student majoring in three majors or degrees at one time, and a full-time working citizen of the states where ever resided or reside. It is not our fault (me or the State of Maryland), officially.


(My real-talk point of view is that I'm starting to analyze that there are a lot of developmentally slow people who are leading when in actuality they need to be led. And I don't know how I can emphasize such truths to be believed.) Those managers, who can they report such mishaps to? No one. The involved states have said they are not going to spend another 30 years addressing the scam issues or my involvement any longer.


WHAT DO I WANT: GIVE IT BACK
I want my Kent County and Queen Anne's County homes and lands back in my possession where I am the sole heir and/or Interested Party or the equivalent of what I possessed, as a Christian. 2) I want my most recent vehicles paid off without me having to add them to my current new loans. 3) I want my charge card debt associated with these situations back in cash or check form so I can productively be where I was in credit score or career actions before returning to Maryland from living in Georgia. 4. Lastly, these matters have caused me relationship issues with my kids, friends, neighbors, and family members who didn't know my career or inheritance actions. There's no amount of money that can address relationship trauma. .... They asked, and that's what I want.  If the lawyers on the Shore had accepted my case matters, maybe just maybe those managers and others involved would not be going through, now too financially.

 

Feb. 27: 

(Reprint from my Facebook TSB Neighborly Daily Comment) Due to the upcoming National Day of Protest (No Buying or Shopping Day) on Friday (Feb. 28), here is an abrupt or quick discussion of reviewing neighborly public event safety and police/law enforcement.  Although I have never been involved in any criminal activity it does not mean that I haven't experienced personal interactions with the social workers with guns (police/law enforcement).  Due to the scams that I mentioned, I am a victim of police involvement. It was a few unproductive police officers who decided to play doctor and lawyer with my life while going through a non-existent college major & student loan scam (a federal agency), and an "abrupt" marital separation leading to a divorce.  ... And when my ancestors were making their official final desires known to white people, publically, before their deaths. In summary and order of basic words, they alone, the unproductive law enforcement kind, placed me on SSI benefits without the Social Security Administration buildings or my state (Maryland) knowing about it. At a time, when anyone who worked in government or police buildings could access the client cases online portal of Maryland's Social Security Administration, a federal agency.

 

I now realize that another major job industry in my state or local jurisdiction is the law enforcement industry. So much so, that outsiders consider my area owned by mostly a group of unproductive officers and law enforcement. (Aka police city or police state for decades.)


FREEZE RIGHT THERE: SOCIAL WORKERS WITH GUN
1. If a police person pulls you over in the darkness of the evening, ask the social worker with a gun if it's okay to drive to a street light area.
2. If a police person stuns you, obey. Recall what happened if you can to the appropriate police department or agency.
3. If you have committed a crime and want to turn yourself in, go to your local or nearby police building where you legally reside. The productive kind of police officers will guide you through your feelings and actions safely.
4. Do not wear all-black when walking in the darkness of winter evenings.
5. Always keep an active actual or copy of your driver's license (real, car registration, and car insurance card where you can easily grab if a police person pulls you over.
6. When a police person greets you, give them a reply back right away without yelling or cursing at them. Do not explain anything to them when first greeting a police person.
7. When in a large group and an interaction with a police person, allow one person to speak at a time. If you find yourself trying to explain your personal actions, wait until it's your turn to speak. Stop. Focus. Do.
8. If you are former military or a veteran, of any age, being stopped or questioned by a police person wait to inform them of your position "after" providing any immediate responses to the officer.
9. Remember: Any staff member who works in city, state, or federal government buildings is considered official law enforcement. They are considered official law enforcers, also, by your state's courts and jurisdictions.
10. School staff members are not official law enforcement. Local public school buildings are legally considered private local businesses. Public school buildings, daycare centers, and Pre-K and Infant centers are not a part of city, state, or government policies and governmental laws of Congress. 
11. Lastly, avoid interrupting an officer when they are speaking.
12. If you are traveling with a group or by charter bus, follow all instructions of your event driver. Or, follow the instructions of a police person when greeted by him or her. Stay inside the vehicle until instructed otherwise.
13. Never bargain with an officer or law enforcement.


*Have a great time with your involvement in taking a stand with the public-protest social event and actions. You can carry a sign. Don't leave a sign in the street after a location venue, or near the grounds of the White House/The People's House (D.C.).

 

Feb. 15:

(Reprinted from my Facebook TSB Neighborly Daily Comment): . . . Opinion or Fact if you want to believe, but I know for certain that beginning in the late 1990s (1996 on), the Union of America and States had an economic crisis at the same time baby boomers (our grandparents' age if you are in your 50s) excepted a massive government retirement exit. Others who worked in other job choices retired, too. Most of those jobs were never replaced by former presidents because of our lower total economy reported by each state. Next in history, beginning in 1999, careers shifted from factory, retail, and sales jobs to the healthcare industry. People chose to work in healthcare because of the demands to take care of those who once took care of us and our country. Preachers or religious leaders also shifted their teaching to be more senior-citizen friendly. (Many young families left the church or places of worship because of such inclusive attitudes by said places of worship). They were retired workers who were aging at the same time.

 

It is important to note that many businesses and religious organizations closed because of their attempt to financially focus on the needs of senior citizens who had a guaranteed or fixed income given by the Social Security Administration "SSA". Such leaders believed they could rely, financially, on senior citizens to keep their doors open. Now we know that such thinking was a failure and has cost our country greatly. We need children to become working-class citizens to boost our overall national economy dollar numbers for neighborhoods and to keep most government agencies going such as the Social Security Administration.


I changed the way HUD viewed youth employment living in affordable housing. Youth employment is not included in a household's total budget so teens and their parents will not be punished, financially, for working.


I believe somehow Americans lost focus on other needs outside of healthcare and retirees. We have babies, children, youth, young adults, single people, and families who need attention, too.  There is money in such "other" work and career categories, too. However, the reality is that most healthcare and home care providers have easier jobs that are mostly less demanding on body parts than most jobs--for the same pay with plenty of overtime hours if desired.  In so saying, let us not forget to balance our skill set to cater to others described, too

.

Feb.   9:

Black History Month and Science (International Day of Women & Girls in Science 2/11). Of online data and comments, most people who consider themselves to be "black" or 100% African American have 4A - 4C hair texure. Other racial categories mostly used: multiracial black, biracial black, African American, black Native American. Fact: There are a majority of multiracial Native Americans in the United States.
