7-Year-Old Beaten to Death by Stepdad for not Reading Bible While Mom Watched

Dec 08, 2012 7 Comments

After reading this, you may ask: How can a mother stand there and let a man do such a thing to her child? Well, the answer is easy: The Bible teaches women to “submit” to their husbands. Additionally, it also says, “Spare the rod, spoil the child.” That said, isn’t it easy to understand why [...]

On Loving Black Men: Unleashing the Curse

Dec 04, 2012 1 Comment

I was seventeen years old when I first considered what dating outside my race might mean. It was a year before the Italian man I’d been seeing promulgated it disgusting that I’d found a Black man walking down Michigan Avenue attractive. It was a year after my fifteen-year-old self told my high school friend I [...]

Jason Belcher Murder-Suicide, Bob Costas, & Gun Control

Dec 03, 2012 3 Comments

I’m not sure if I totally agree with Bob Costas on last night’s now “controversial” halftime commentary on the Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher’s murder-suicide. However, I would say that he has a point when speaking to the culture of violence fostered by gun ownership or gun possession. Unfortunately, there are many who disagree, [...]

Attorney: Jordan Davis Killer Michael Dunn is no George Zimmerman – But is He?

Nov 29, 2012 17 Comments

There is something sick and perverse about George Zimmerman selling autographs to raise money for the cost of his upcoming trial. What this says about Zimmerman or willing participants of such a sordid transaction, I’m not sure. But hopefully, it doesn’t reflect the insidiously pervasive direction of larger society. The last thing we need are [...]

It has almost been one year since the death of Trayvon Martin at the hands of George Zimmerman. You remember that case, don’t you? You now, the black teen armed with Skittles and Ice Tea who was gunned down by an over-zealous neighborhood watch captain for wearing a hoodie and looking suspiciously black? Yeah, I’m [...]

  I watch and read the reports on Palestine. The land of Palestine, being fought over. One side with all the latest in weaponry supplied and supported by the most powerful country in the world. the other firing homemade rockets, which is actually more than when they used to throw rocks or send in suicide [...]

Secret Service Investigates Woman’s Racist anti-Obama Facebook Post

Nov 13, 2012 6 Comments

So, Paul Ryan says that they didn’t lose the presidential race because of the issues. According to him, the Romney-Ryan ticket only lost to President Barack Obama because of the “urban vote.” Now of course when I read that this morning, my racism meter started red lining — maybe if I were “color-blind” like some [...]

Nov 12, 2012 7 Comments

I like Melissa Harris-Perry, but yesterday she let me down. On her show yesterday she discussed what is being reported as a “riot” on the Ole Miss campus which erupted in the wake of President Obama’s victory on election night.

So, over $1 billion dollars was spent this election cycle to put President Barack Obama — a black man — out of a job. Still think there’s no need for Affirmative Action? Yep, think about that one for a while, folks. Speaking of which, CBS Las Vegas is reporting what I think to be a [...]

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 [...]

My Subconscious 2003 Decision Not To Vote For Mitt Romney

Nov 05, 2012 No Comments

The year was 2003… South Park had an episode named “All About Mormons” (<– watch it there if you have been asleep for the last 9 years) in their 7th season, in which they went through this seemingly far-fetched story and explanation of exactly what it is that Mormons Believe. At the time, I was [...]
