Black people have saved the country once again…Dems…now it’s your turn to return the favor.

So…the people have spoken…mainly black people…mainly black women; and now Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the President-elect and Vice President-elect respectively. This was a history-making election in many ways. One is that this election turned out the most voters ever in the history of any election. Another is that the country has elected not…

We are exhausted! Black people are exhausted!

As strong as we are as black people; even the strongest have their limit. How much more pain and heartache can a group of people take? For those black folks that feel this doesn’t affect me…wake the hell up. This is an attack on all of us. For some reason in 2020 racism has openly…

Allies…no when to say when!

We appreciate our allies; we truly do. But some of you all are doing way too much. With all of the anger and frustration, you are unleashing; it’s causing law enforcement or whoever else to want to take their anger out on us. We are going to be the ones to pay. Please be aware…

No more energy…

I saw a clip of y’all’s VICE PRESIDENT (because remember I don’t have one) go all around the world without being able to say three simple words…”Black Lives Matter.” He just couldn’t do it. In a sense, without saying so he refused to say it. He came with all of the all lives matter bullshit…

I personally hit up two restaurants yesterday and the wait was crazy but it was absolutely worth every minute and every dollar spent. Even today, I was out on the south side, and on my way back home I was going…

Why I don’t support Columbus Pride

I know some of y’all are like…Here she goes with her boycotts again! And I’m like…”YOU’RE DAMN RIGHT!” I treat people, places and things exactly how I’m treated.

May 2, 1963 – The Birmingham Children’s Crusade of 1963

Let’s take a moment and applaud these teenagers and even those a bit younger who are out here making their voices heard; not only in Florida, but around the country. Enough with the talk about they’re too young, they aren’t old enough to vote, etc. This is a totally different time even from twenty plus…

STORY TIME: My Discussion on race with a Somalian Man

About ten years ago I was in the waiting room at the car dealership while my car was being serviced. I was just sitting there minding my business, drinking water and listening to my MP3 player when this young Somalian man; about my age, came and sat down across from me. I was about 26 or 27 at…

2016 BET Awards Recap, Read, Roast and Gathering………..Part 1

Last night the 2016 BET Awards aired via Viacom…meaning it aired on every single damn Viacom channel. Thank you corporate america! Now, I really don’t see it for the BET Awards and haven’t for some years now. I think that I was done when I saw Citi Trends as a sponsor. It seems from then…
