Not to belabor a point, but let’s follow-up on what I wrote yesterday in response to Richard Mourdock’s ridiculous comment. Yes, let’s take another look at the idea that a woman becoming pregnant as a consequence of being raped needs to succumb to “God’s will,” and as such, should not be allowed to legally have [...]

So, Richard Mourdock says God uses the uterus of pregnant rape victims as gift wrapping. As such, abortions should be illegal for women who become pregnant as a result of a non-consensual sexual encounter. And why? Because said pregnancy is a gift, and intended by God acording to the Indiana GOP Senate hopeful currently running [...]

When 59-year-old bus driver Artis Hughes decided to pull over the bus he was driving to engage 25-year-old female passenger Shi’dea N. Lane in a brawl, I’m sure he never anticipated a video of his actions, going viral via the bastion of social media’s dark underbelly, World Star Hip Hop…  but go viral it did. [...]

Man, y’all black people play too damn much. OK, so I know y’all love Jesus a lot; yes, black folk go to church eight days a week and three times on Sunday. So yeah, there’s no question about that; and no, I’m not gonna put y’all on front street about the “white man’s religion” thing. [...]

Like most black people I used to like and admire both Tavis Smiley and Cornel West a great deal, but after they made public fools of themselves on the very day that Barack Obama announced his intention to run for president, I decided to do a little research into them instead of simply buying into the hype. Not long thereafter it [...]

Did you hear the one about the mother of five who found her ex-boyfriend living in her attic some twelve years after breaking up with him? I read the story yesterday and figured there’s no way I’m buying this story. No seriously, there’s no way in the world someone can live in anyone’s attic without [...]

So, apparently a mentally ill Black man was shot 46 times, and killed by Saginaw, Michigan police officers almost two months ago; and, we’re just now hearing about it because it was caught on tape. Thanks to CNN and the work of a concerned citizen armed with a video camera, we’re reminded of the disadvantage [...]

Dear Ms. Constance White, The 2012 Olympic Games have come to a close and we are in complete and utter awe of the magnificent Black women, American and international, who have competed in an array of sporting events, and in many instances, won medals. We did enjoy the article feature in the June issue on [...]

Yes, you read that right: A man used the Bible to threaten a woman with rape at a Gay Pride Parade in Michigan. I realize I haven’t said anything about the Chick-Fil-A anti-gay marriage turned pro-gay marriage controversy in recent weeks. And to be honest, I’m not going to say anything about it; frankly, I [...]

Trayvon Martin’s mother filed an insurance claim against the homeowners association of the gated community Retreat at Twin Lakes where her son was killed. She’s seeking $75,000 in compensation for the death of her son. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Personally, I think it’s ridiculous on her part. I could be wrong, [...]

Pastor C.L. Bryant, a Black Republican, refers to himself as a “runaway slave,” in the following interview with Glenn Beck. Bryant was essentially promoting the latest Coonrasric epic propagandist film production, Runaway Slaves which is currently in theaters (more on that foolishness in a future post). Beck also says in the interview, that Conservatives are [...]
