THICH NHAT HANH…… “There is a misconception that Buddhism is a religion and that you worship Buddha…..Buddhism is a practice, like yoga, you can be a Christian and practice Buddhism…..I met a Catholic priest who lives in a Buddhist monastery in France…..he told me that Buddhism makes him a better Christian…..I love that.”

JOE ROGAN’S HOT TAKE ON THE TERM “BLACK” STUNS TREVOR NOAH…..Not only Trevor….I was shaking me head also…..so, this is what this outright racist said….. “Unless you are talking to someone who is 100% African from the darkest place where they are not wearing any clothes all day and they have developed all of that melanin to protect themselves from the sun, even the term Black is weird”….yep, he uttered that BS…..Trevor responded with this….. “The things this guy seem to be ignoring is that Black people didn’t call themselves Black….you understand that right?….It’s not like Black people were like, “We’re Black.” No. In Africa we have tribes, we have cultures…..Zulu, Xhosa, Baganda, Igbo, Wakandans!…..but then white people got there, and they were like, “Wow. There’s a lot of Black people here. A lot of Black people”…..then in America they invented a rule that if you have a drop of Black blood in you, that makes you Black, which defined how you were treated by the government and society.”
