Jesus’ Death: Did You Think About It?

It is not my intent to get any of the good Christian folk upset with this post. Our whole life comes down to what you believe or know about in this case, as black folk say, “our Jesus.” This has always vexed me. Nonetheless, let’s clear up something first; Jesus was not blonde haired blue eyed and surely not a white man – I repeat Jesus was NOT a white man, if he existed at all. Supposedly, he…

White Fear Equals Racism

This blog post is a “reblog” of an article written by April V. Taylor on the Kulture Kritic. She writes what the renowned linguist and activist Noam Chomsky has been speaking with philosopher George Yancy on the white fear as part of a feature for the New York Times.

In which they discusses race and racism in America pointing out the roots of deeply rooted in America’s soul and the legacy of…

Lying Donald’s Ten Point Plan For Black Folk

I know there are many people alarmed and have a lot of anxiety because Donald Trump has been elected president. But I will tell you don’t worry because this guy knows nothing about governing; he will rely on the people around him who has his ear that put things in his head, and you can see what kind of people he surrounds himself with; NEOCONs and evil crooked people.

Donald Trump’s slogan for…

My grandfather told me a story a long time ago. As the story goes, there was an old man suffer from the burden of oppression. A sharecropper, near slave, One day, he was instructed that the farm was sold and it has a new owner who told him to stand up straight. The old man looked at the new owner and “I thought I was!” I quoted Pop’s her because we saw this with the last president and I want to…

Hornor A Black Veteran Today

Today is Veterans Day and no doubt you will hear praise, horror, and support, mostly from those who never served, but for those of us who did serve, I will tell you it is all happy horse sh$$t. They have never cared for the lives of people in theater or returning home. I am a veteran of Vietnam, a wounded soldier, spent months in a hospital in Japan, saw men wondered and die. I have yet to…

I was trying to think about a topic for today’s blog post: I was distraught because the only word I could come up with was Catastrophic! There have been major floods, hurricanes, earthquakes and there are some who believe a giant meteor hit the earth and killed off the dinosaurs. All kinds of disasters that have wreaked havoc on the earth and its people but none of this is like what America has…

Mourning In America: Welcome To The 1950’s

When Barack Obama was elected in 2008, many assumed a “post-racial” America was upon us. They were fiercely wrong. People believed America had somehow reconciled its shameful racial history by electing a black man into the White House. It was merely good optics! As it turned out, one man alone could not undo the countless systemic issues that have plagued a country built on slavery. During…

The nation was stolen, built on the backs of slaves, murdering Native American, and war. I contend there is a difference between His-Story and History. What say you?

One truth that most overlook is “they gave a man the vote and made him think he is free”! And that’s my thought provoking perspective…

When you think of white supremacy or the suspected white supremacist, we must recognize the not too long ago laid dormant. But now with the rise of this man called Trump they have raised their ugly heads coming out like their forefather – proud and bold. Black people understand that this is the American way! We have seen terrorist groups like the KKK go into hiding or out of site for a while, but…

The Deplorable Donald And His Klan

The GOP Presidential nominee continues to cry foul telling his supporters, such as they are, that the system is rigged. Trump, this is no surprise to anyone by you. He sits high on his perch and has taken advantage of every bit of his White Privilege. He like most white folk are in denial knowing full well that what they do and have done to black and brown people; this is where the system is…
