Bro. Haruna,

 

 

Ousman Conteh (O Conteh)  is the one you are debating with from Chicago. I am not refering to Ousman Ceesay. I hope that helps about Ous's mention. 

 

But here are the links about Dr. Pinkley that I promised you. 

 

 I knew Dr. Pinkney is no Obamarite. Very obvious!!

 

I goggled some of his comments and please read:

http://www.izania.com/articles/political/black-america%27s-legacy-of-struggle/

 

See part two of my rejoinder soon, also would be reply to Ousman Ceesay.

 

Regards,

Yero.
