There’s nothing like an act of Mother Nature to remind us of our humanity. Looking at the ongoing coverage of yesterday’s tornado that devastated the small community of Moore, Oklahoma, I’m reminded of this. Much like in the first few minutes after the Boston Marathon bombing, images of rescue efforts by first responders assisting victims [...]
President Barack Obama gave a historic commencement speech at Morehouse College today. If you know anything about anything, you’d know that Obama is America’s first black president; and, that Morehouse College is an all-male, historic black college founded just two years after the American Civil War. As an institute of higher learning that caters to [...]
So, did you hear the one about the Saudi student seen walking around with a pressure cooker? Yeah, word is that he couldn’t get flight lessons. Okay, I know that was wrong and that I’ll probably burn in the VIP room for racists in hell. I know, but I couldn’t resist. What can I say? [...]
I have five siblings, and if any one of them did what Ariel Castro did, I’d be done with them just like Onil and Pedro Castro has their brother. The two Castro brothers were released and were not charged in connection with the kidnapping, rape, and torture of three Cleveland women held captive for ten [...]
As I mentioned a few days ago, Charles Ramsey is that dude. His act of heroism is undeniable, and it doesn’t matter how much dirt from his past being dug up by the media. Why? Well, it’s not like he’s running for office or trying to court votes. Nope, Charles Ramsey isn’t out here running [...]
Ariel Castro is currently in jail pending an $8,000,000 bond for the alleged kidnapping, rape, and torture of three Cleveland women. As the sordid details of his treatment of his victims trickle out in the wake of their rescue. I think we can all agree that Castro is a piece of shit. Yes, any man [...]
Dear Mr. President, First of all, let me congratulate you on your massive re election win back in November. I voted for you and am proud to have done so. However, I am troubled by the recent act by your administration of placing Assata Shakur, the former Joanne Chesimard, on the most wanted domestic terrorist [...]
The Cleveland Kidnapping: Fifty Shades of BDSM Fleeting snippets of news sound bites declaring the horrors faced by the three women allegedly forcibly kidnapped and forced to live with their captors for 10 + years have been over all the networks and especially the national news aka cable news outfits. In all that I have [...]
The Ratchet Diaries: Molly…The Girl Next Door Remember the days when you only admitted to drinking socially and smoking a cigarette? Remember when if you were caught with anything other than a Newport in your hand, you ‘passed the dutchie ‘pon the left hand side’ and blamed it on an absent friend when your parents [...]
The bombing that took place at the Boston Marathon on April, 15th, in Boston, MA was yet another tragedy in a sea of tragedies that’s been going on lately. This incident stood out to me because it brought the days of Columbine back. When the Columbine shooting happened, the media did a good job of [...]
There were two explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon this afternoon. Reports are that there’re at least two people dead, at least 27 people severely injured, with hundreds more hurd. There’s no word on whether authorities have started rounding up brown-skinned people with funny-sounding names. But I suspect that at this time, [...]
So, a security officer at Walmart falsely suspected a white father of kidnapping his “mixed” children; and, some of my friends are mad about it. One of my friends sent me the following story and asked that I share my thoughts. In their opinion, the following is yet another example of racial profiling gone bad. [...]

The Genarlow Wilson case is burning up the internet again… This case gained notoriety when it hit the headlines back around 2007. The case and subsequent conviction of Genarlow Wilson was based on a flawed statue that made it a felony for a minor to engage in oral sex with another minor – while if [...]

It’s pretty clear that Republicans are taking shots at Hillary Clinton in lieu of her possible presidential run in 2016. I know it’s only 2013 and we’re a long way away from the next presidential election. But, when you’ve lost two election cycles back to back as Republicans have, to a black guy with a [...]
