Teach The Children
Looks like Puffy is for the children too. This fall, the Bad Boy CEO is set to open the Capital Preparatory Harlem Charter School. Located on 1 East 104th Street in Harlem, the school is currently accepting applicants for staff and 6 and 7th graders. Applications can be found here. Says Diddy:
“Creating this school is a dream come true for me. I want to impact the lives of young people in my community, and build future leaders. The first step is offering access to a quality education,” said Sean “Diddy” Combs. “Every young person should have the tools they need to succeed. All our children should be able to pursue their dreams. That is something I can impact with this school.”

This is seaux necessary. Hopefully it’s infused with real african history and many influential music moguls follow suit. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
AFRICAN HISTORY? THATS NOT “OUR” HISTORY!!! Nigga, he trying to BUILD the FUTURE!!! Not go BACKWARDS? We live in AMERICA not AFRICA!!! DARK SKINNED “AMERICANS” need to STOP SAYING we AFRICAN AMERICANS and BLACKS!!! FIND OUT WHO YOU REALLY ARE!!! Those are NAME SLAVE MASTERS gave DARKED SKINNED PEOPLE!!! Diddy just FOUND OUT his PEOPLES were NOT SLAVES!!! WE ALL DID NOT COME FROM AFRICA!!! MOST OF USE WAS “ALREADY” HERE!!!
Try telling white people that European history isn’t important or Arabs that arabic history isn’t important or Asians that asian history isn’t important. Tell somebody that the history of the great grand parents isn’t important… So black people that are AFRICAN americans need to know their history because that gives them the foundational intelligence to build the future. ALL BLACK PEOPLE in america are AFRICAN america. No matter where you live on the planet, if you are of the African diaspora then you are AFRICAN. So yes ancient African history is black history…
Real africans dont fuck with blacks from out here and thats a fact………
It doesn’t matter. Once the realization is set in that black people period all have the same roots, things will turn around. You don’t speak for all Africans either.
Im not saying you do, nor am i trolling or tryong to bait you into any argument or such. My statement comes from actually speaking with africans from out there that end up here, most genuinely dont rock nor want to be associated with blacks from here.
That doesn’t matter. Africans have been through the same colonialist brainwashing as niggas over here and in most cases when they come this way they don’t have a choice on whether or not to fuck with black people because if they are caught, and there is even the slightest of contact with a black person with a criminal record, then their pass will be revoked and they’ll be sent back to Africa. Africans too need to be taught that the black man, woman and child you see in america, is actually your long lost brothers and sisters.
When you see a black person from African coming through just walk up and give him or her a hung and say welcome my brother/sister and their defensives will start breaking down.
Sorry but no it’s not a fact. while it may be factual that some might not, saying all is untrue, just has some blacks don’t fuck w/ niggas and vice versa. Coming from a real african.
I can only base that off conversations i have had.
If you are black and neither your mother or father is white, and you don’t got white parents, white brothers and sisters and a history that goes back to Europe and other white european nations… Your AFRICAN. Your were only labeled “american” when your people were brought here as prisoners of war (slaves).
Whoa my G, mind your Caps. I’m well aware of the valid points you’ve made ( with respect to Africa being the name of a conqueror). But for lack of a better term I used “African history.” If you preferred a more suitable title all you had to do was provide it, lol. As pointed out by Marty McFly, and I’m paraphrasing here, without a solid foundation, there can be no future buildings, a’la vision with no purpose. The point was I’m happy that Diddy’s school building rather than empty flossin’. It shows growth and proper self alignment. Feel free to add on if you’d like buddy. ✌🏿️✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿
We don’t even need to call it African history. Its ALL BLACK history.
No doubt ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Be specific about black people that were already here and how many links to African culture, customs and traditions are there?
You better have cold hard data to back up those claims. Quite strange that you say that being that when you look at 99.9999% of the negro culture in areas like new orleans and as far as southern america, the cultures are almost as identical to the bantu culture in West/Central Africa. Also there are artifacts, sites, maps, documents etc to prove that 99.9999999% of African-Americans are from africa. African history itself talks of africans being brought to America but that’s a different can of worms. I’d suggest less youtube and more amazon.com, you’d find more credible sources for your statements.
boss moves
Salute.
What is it going to teach, EBONICS?
Diddy – “I’m from the 80s NYC 5%er culture”…. Everything I Love.
And you claimed you’re not Muslim…smh you’re a fucking liar.
I’m not. You seemed to be obsessed with Islam though. If I was Muslim I would proudly say I am but I’m not. I believe in God not religion.
America needs more black thugs. Educated niggers are so boring…
104th street isn’t harlem but i the sentiment is well appreciated.
man, anything above 90th st is harlem
not really.
So far from the truth. Do better Brian my internet friend.
Dope power move here puff………
How did he get a new charter school in NYC when (idiot) DiBlasio said he would not allow any more charter schools?
You know what time it is,DiBlasio said that to get elected & is no different than the rest of em. They know if they put Puff face on it Blacks & Latinos won’t say shit
you might be right.
I approve this motion.
Y’all so naive. They’ve been underfunding & dismantling public schools in NYC like Rahm Emmanuel in Chicago & they’re just using his coon ass to further gentrify Harlem. Y’all the same coons that were hype when Bill Clinton moved an office to Harlem then when dog walks replaced African drums in Garvey Park & residents were displaced via gentrification wanted to march & Sh%T. #StayWoke
One of the best to ever do it. Take that, take that.
