[WardFive] Re: [ward5] This Group is for Ward 5 Issues/News Right?

Good Mornig Mrs. KPW,
 
I hear you.  No Worries.  However I won't allow them to tell me about what being "Civil" is when they are clearly clueless and try to twist things to make themself "Saints"!! 
 
As for the Cafe ---- All I can say is that the Food at the Cafe is Just AWESOME.   I wish I could take credit for it but it is all them.  I happen to be there alot as my office is adjacent and I am forced to help out at times when I am around when understaffed or busy!!!
 
As for the Menu -- If you like tasty food with seasoning cooked in and not just sprinkled on top, then the BCafe at 3740 12th Street, N.E (www.bcafedc.com) definitely is the spot:
 
Grilled or Fried
 
Fish - Talapia and whiting - Awesome
Crab Cakes - all Crab meat and seasoned
Shrimp - especially the spicy grilled ones - awesome 
Salmon Cake - tasty
 
Wings -
 
Baked Caribbean Wings - mild and spicy - awesome - found nowhere in this city!
Buffalo, Fried, Barbecue wings
Curried Wings - Guyanese Style Curry - awesome
 
Sandwiches -
 
Chicken Salad - awesome
Grilled Chicken - really good
Fish, salmon, crab cake
 
Burgers -
 
Seasoned Beef and Turkey Burgers - Really Good burgers
Veggie Burger  - awesome - really different!! 
 
Appetizers -
 
Spinach Dip - awesome
Vegan Shrimp - Awesome
 
Fries - Amazing!!!
 
Lemon Pepper
Red Pepper
Explosion
Sweet Potato
 
Sides -
 
Mac and Cheese - best - bar none
Coleslaw - best - bar none
Spinach - best - bar none - even kids love it - one little boy made his mom come after Martial Arts just for it.
Potato Salad - best bar none
Rice and peas - pretty good
Grilled Veges - OK - depends on how you like vegetables
Pumpkin - when it is available - Awesome
 
Desserts -
 
Awesome - Sweet Potato and Rum Cakes!!
 
I believe all the fried foods are in Soybean Oil and the oil gets changed and friers get cleaned often which helps with health and definitely the taste.  Also, the Vegan food/Fries, the Chicken and the seafood all have their own Fryers so there is no cross taste - adds to flavor!!  
 
There is more and about 10 really good vegan items including Barbecue and Shrimp that you wouldn't even guess that is "Vegan"!
 
Really - the food is just Awesome.  Check out the Menu on www.bcafedc.com.  And by the way, they are trying to figure out how to put Guyanese ROTI - the real stuff - not Jamacan or Trini - but the real deal Roti (smile to you Jamaicans and Trinis out there) on the menu.
 
I am going to let Eric Try it out and get back to you since he sounds like a fair White Man!!

Remember, we are not making accusations by name on the newsletter unless that person has directly insulted or mentioned you on the listserv.  If the person is a public figure, then that is a different story as long as it is done respectfully.  I've not done a good job on being respectful with politicians, but I'm trying.


I recognize that there is a fair amount of bullying and intimidation tactics on the listserv and in Ward 5 community affairs.  Choose our words wisely on the listserv when addressing personal/business matters.  Don't pull us in a legal battle.  We can read the emails without names.  I'd rather not have this another day of "kick Rob off the listserv". Let's talk about some other things besides the Cafe battle.  Can we table this until Thursday, perhaps.  Give the listserv a couple of days of rest on the Cafe and its perceived/alleged enemies.  Rob, you have so much going on, can we hear about something else for a minute, unless you're talking about the food or the positive side of the Cafe and it's plans for future.  We know life is unfair.  Welcome us to the Cafe.

Good Morning,
 

Bullying

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    
Page semi-protected
Bullying is detrimental to students' well-being and development.[1]
Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior manifested by the use of force or coercion to affect others, particularly when the behavior is habitual and involves an imbalance of power. It can include verbal harassment, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, gender, sexuality, or ability.[2][3] The "imbalance of power" may be social power and/or physical power. The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target".
 
SO YOU UNDERSTAND, I and the Cafe and the Inn has been a TARGET of the Padous and Co. and a silent some in this community.  THE GROUNDS for this BULLYING has always been based on them fearing A Black Establishment as you can clearly see that they didn't protest the White Establishment.   
 
SO YOU GET IT, RESPONSES to TRANSGRESSIONS CANNOT BE REFERRED TO AS BULLYING!!; Therefore, I nor anyone who stands up against the TRANSGRESSORS cannot be referred to as a Bully.  I hope you comprehend that.  SO you get it - If you are a Phisically Stronger or Bigger in Appearance and attack me and end up getting your A** whipped, I can't be seen as the BULLY!! 
 
So while the Cafe has lost Lots of MONEY due to the Protestors who felt that they were MORE INFLUENCIAL, Because I have been able to expose their Oppressive TACTICS, we have been able to identify them for WHO they are.
 
Furthermore, While my responses may be too direct and not leave a good taste, it exposes a nature that some of you have deep inside or on the surface that you like to keep hidden.  The reality is that I didn't see any of you who like to defend/explain/understand what happened to the Cafe, Me, and the Inn speak up when we were being "BULLIED". 
 
I am STILL WAITING on any of you answering the Question - AFTER 2.5 years what is the reason for these people protesting the Cafe ..................???  No one answers because there is no answer that would be logical - hence identifying Racism and EGO as the Core Factors.
 
 ---- So I guess I should say thank you -------  because the difference between what I do is use intellect and logic to express myself and because none of you can withstand either or, you try to label me as a Bully.
 
Wouldn't it be much more simple for our "community of "neighbors"" to just show "civility and decency" and stand against the Transgressors?  But that is too much like right - but because all of them are WHITE, you want so much for them to be RIGHT!!   But then came Manomale and of course, they couldn't protest this White Business and they all got exposed!!!
 
To continue on your comment - "This listserv - "It's a place where people get bullied, get into petty fights,"
 
You sure didn't mind reading when Ivy City was being bullied, when the neighbors of 901 Monroe was being Bullied, when Spingarm was being Bullied, when Jerry and Linda was being bullied with a MUCH larger CUA development.  But, anytime that folks stand up for the others, we get mislabled as "bullies".
 
 And now for your "petty fights" -  It is amazing that you, Allison and the Matts out there minimize what affects so many people lives.  Imagine - you so deny this Racism, Racist and Egotistical approach to the Cafe that you want to push it out of Ward 5.  But even Peter Denied Christ 3 times just to save himself - and you and the rest are trying your best to not admit that racism is coming out of the pores of some Whites in so many in so many ways because you just can't say ******  anymore and get away with it.  SO, now it takes on other forms. 
 
So what you might want to call petty, are small advances in the HUMAN RACE as many Whites are now informed enough about some of the things that they are doing that is OPPRESSIVE and can (if they want to) start making the necessary adjustments to their Optic Lens to be more and more embracing to the plight of Blacks and the overall MORDERN DAY approach to OPPRESSION and SLAVERY - especially placing our kids on the path to end up in Jail. 
 
You see, no one is perfect and often times, if you are not taught certain things, what you have always known continues to be your reality. NOTE - everyone makes mistakes but when you continuously infringe on other Humans when the transgression has been explained (in this case - over and over again), then you have IDENTIFIED YOURSELF AT THE CORE FOR WHO YOU REALLY ARE!!!

Because I feel like a large amount of the content that I'm seeing here is not Ward 5 specific/relevant. I enjoy the news portion and discussion of Ward 5 issues, but most of what I'm reading is completely off the reservation. I'm strongly considering unsubscribing because I feel that this list has lost its mission and just become a sounding board for a few individuals. That's really sad, because I think that having a list for all of Ward 5 is important. This list is not that. It's a place where people get bullied, get into petty fights, and where I can read posts not directly related to Ward 5.
