With Chicago being the city with the largest black population per capita in the United States, we’ve learned a lot about the city. In particular, we’ve read, heard, and learned of the urban violence that plagues the third largest city in the United States. Not only did we learn that the biggest contributing factor to [...]
President Obama and the American people scored a major victory with the recent Fiscal Cliff deal. At least, this is what we’re supposed to believe. That is, if you listen to “certain people” in the media of course. I don’t really feel like naming names, but let’s just say that there’s a lot that they’re [...]
So I noticed that the racism is rich today. It’s like there are a lot of news stories featuring racism and racist outbursts from random white Americans. Seriously, what’s that all about? It’s like as if a black guy became president of the United States or something. Funny, right? I mean, something like that would [...]
The last thing I wanted to do today was to revisit Richard Mourdock’s idiotic comment about rape, abortion, and God. Yeah, I’ve said enough here and here. And quite frankly, I’m sick and tired of debating about God, his will, or his infallibility. However, I did catch the Melissa Harris Perry Show on MSNBC yesterday [...]
It’s been a while since I last watched anything on Fox News, but I did last night. I specifically watched Sean Hannity’s show last night, because he had an exposé on Barack Obama that was guaranteed to rock his bid for reelection. I was told that a secret video of Obama had surfaced, so I [...]
The following video was produced with the partnership of the American Civil Liberties Union, Constitution Project, and National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. Hopefully it sheds some light on the reality that is the judicial system here in the United States, as opposed to what we see on television. Sadly, there are many people who [...]
As if we didn’t see it coming, the Super Committee has failed to reach an agreement. Government legislative dysfunction aside, faced with the humongous task of cutting $1.2 trillion off the deficit over the next ten years without a cape, did we really expect them to pull it off? No, in all seriousness, like most of you, I never [...]
I used to watch Bill O’Reilly’s show regularly several years ago. I watched it because I saw it as pure comedy to me. Add to that the fact that I knew there were a host of people watching who took this guy seriously. However, somewhere along the line it got old, and my interest in [...]
When conjuring up an image of what the quintessential companion of a wealthy Sugar Daddy looks like, as dictated by popular culture, perhaps visions of a young, thin but buxom blond woman dances in your head. Or maybe an ‘exotic’, racially ambiguous variation, whose aesthetic still passes muster when it comes to rigid beauty standards. [...]
Looks like “racial entitlement” won big today… So the Supreme Court didn’t announce any rulings related to “the gays” or “blah people” today. While many of us on the left side of the political side of things anxiously await rulings on DOMA, Prop 8, Affirmative Action as well as the Voting Rights Act. U suppose [...]
I can think of many reasons to support immigration reform. But of all the reasons to sup[port immigration reform, I never knew that the fertility of immigrants would be one of them. Being an immigrant myself, you would think that I would have been wise to this obvious advantage. But it just goes to show [...]
By now, you’ve probably heard about Judge Edith Jones, a former chief judge of the United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. If you haven’t, you may want to sit down and take your nerve pills pronto. Judge Jones is in the media spotlight for having racist attitudes regarding blacks, Latinos and Mexican Nationals. She [...]
Hello young brotha. I hope this letter finds you in good spirits. I hope you are doing well, and I hope life is treating you well. I wrote this letter as a response to your latest song entitled “I Hit It First”. First off, you really have a good voice. You definitely have talent. However, [...]
