A black mother of two who died in Hurricane Sandy was refused help by a Staten Island resident. Having seen for myself the look of desperation on the faces of people only hours removed from Hurricane Katrina when it hit New Orléans in 2005. The following story of how a mother lost her two children [...]

I like Dr. Boyce Watkins — yes, I really do. It is for that reason only that he isn’t this week’s recipient of my Slave-Catcher of the Week award. Not that what he said in a piece over at Kulture Kritic isn’t slave catcher behavior. But after thinking long and hard, truth is, the last [...]

The fact that polls are indicating that President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney are practically tied, says a lot. To me, what it says is that there are many likely voters who are willing to trust a very wealthy lying-ass white man, than they would a black man as president of the United States. [...]

Looking for your very own handmade Grandpa Golliwog doorstop? Or perhaps you’ve been looking for a “cute” handmade Mammy doll or Baby Girl Golly? Well according to an online petition that’s being circulated by a woman named Raquel Mack, virtual artisan marketplace, Etsy provides a whole slew of racist nostalgia for purchase on its website [...]

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 [...]

Yeah I know, black people like me should be forever grateful to O.J. Simpson. Once upon a time we were told by Conservatives like Ann Coulter that we should be grateful to Abraham Lincoln and the Republican party. Yes, because it if wasn’t for such righteous men line Lincoln, black folks would be picking cotton, [...]

Listen, in 2016 it could very well be nearly impossible to cast a vote if you’re African-American. Given the way things are playing out right now, Barack Obama winning in November could be the end of the black vote. If you think his 2008 victory pissed off the GOP, wait till you see what happens [...]

The opening of the debate between Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren? Awkwardly racist. Scott Brown tried to use a reverse, reverse racism card and it didn’t work out too well. He accused her of lying about being Native American and getting ahead because of it. Shit, he all but said, “Elizabeth Warren isn’t Native American. [...]

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 [...]

Word on the street is that the Chicago teachers strike has officially ended. I’m not too sure about the details, but word is that the teachers union voted to suspend the strike this afternoon, and classes will resume as early as Wednesday. I’m not sure if both sides have come to an amicable agreement, but [...]

This following may come as a shock to some of you; but, just for the record, I support the Ku Klux Klan being able to participate in Georgia’s “Adopt-a-Highway” program, I know, such a stance is hard to believe when coming from a professional racism chaser such as myself. But hey, right is right, and [...]
