It looks like we are on same team, maybe playing different positions… By Donald W.R. Allen,II – Editor in Chief/IBNN and USA Radical Black.com Poverty pimps, community hustlers and clergy bamboozlers have made a good living off the Black people in Minnesota. I have been writing about this for over three years – still today, a few of you still don’t get what’s going on. Now I have to lay some more information on you. Why haven’t we heard anymore about Annshalike Hamilton – found murdered with her body frozen to a cement garage floor; Quincy Smith, former...]]> http://ibnn.org/north-minneapolis-naacp-president-%e2%80%9cuncovers%e2%80%9d-two-of-the-north-side-seven-and-and-estimated-4-million-dollars/ Black leadership has to recognize that principles more than speech, character more than a claim, is greater in advancing the cause of our liberation than what has transpired thus far. ~Louis Farrakhan [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jcUyY02mf4[/youtube] In recent articles on IBNN, we have stated that north Minneapolis has a few “self-appointed leaders." Well that’s not the case. IBNN took it for granted that these individuals from the areas of media, human services, politics and a host of other industries were “leaders,” when in fact they didn’t have the integrity, honesty and experience to guide a community to greater levels and work with others on a fair and knowledgeable playing field. With local “spokespersons” going on record saying, “Bad parenting is the reason we have crime, gangs and a...]]> http://ibnn.org/apology-to-the-north-minneapolis-community-we-don%e2%80%99t-have-leaders-we-have-self-appointed-spokespersons/ Alisha will never know what it is like to attend college or to pledge a sorority. She will never marry and have children or see her grandchildren. The death of this young girl represents a lot more than a continued rise in violence. It represents the over-all catastrophic failure by those “self appointed” leaders who have condemned their own “reflections,” the youth of north Minneapolis. Poverty Pimps march to the tune of the all mighty dollar. This would be okay if dollars were reaching the community – but no, they organize for finance, not for “the least of thee.” [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R1kcvKoF-8[/youtube] 17-year-old Alisha ‘LeLe’ Neeley, was laid to rest on Saturday, March 6, 2010.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhhUiLul__c[/youtube] As the funeral for young Ms. Neely was well under-way, IBNN’s editor in chief Don Allen stood outside of the church interviewing different people about the tragic loss of another north Minneapolis youth. A young man walking north on Lyndale Avenue, heading to the funeral was apprehended by Minneapolis police. Going to a funeral with a weapon? WHY? Watch the video below: This string of violence in and around community leaders, was identified early this week in an email to IBNN from a Terrell Brown, who wrote: (Unedited) From: Terrell Brown Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2010 20:32:14 -0800 (PST) To: Subject: the black list Mr. Allen, I advise...]]> http://ibnn.org/ibnn-exclusive-report/ People that like honest and factual reporting can watch the full un-edited squad car video of the Minneapolis Police beating of Ira Stafford on Sunday, March 7, 2010 on the Black Focus Show hosted by Ron Edwards on channel 17 (Minneapolis Television Network) at 5 p.m. – this broadcast of the real tape will prove that WCCO 4 is nothing more than a self-masturbating, fluff station that obstructs viewers from factual data when it comes to the Black community.

We know "crap" when we hear it! [youtube tZCqg3zQQJA] By Donald W.R. Allen,II Editor in Chief-IBNN Minneapolis politicians are incapable of telling something as trivial as the truth – much like the mainstream media outlets who “celebrate” the “celebrity” of certain political positions while bypassing journalistic integrity. “Crime is down” is the battle cry of Minneapolis’ mayor, currently seeking a spot as Minnesota’s Governor.  While the City of Minneapolis suffers from high rates of crime and unemployment, R.T. is so far removed from local realities  that  City Hall is little more than campaign headquarters.
