The 'Race' Card By Karen Hatter The majority of people of African descent, living in America, do not have the luxury of compartmentalizing our collective experience here in America, beginning with forced immigration, enslavement, Jim Crow, the Black Codes and after slavery, in modern times, the long list of inequalities and abuses that have been brought down upon our heads as a result of who we are and our past relationship to those in stewardship, of non African descent, in America, when we express our feelings, beliefs and concerns over our past and for our as yet to be known futures in America. Many Americans find it difficult and it makes them uneasy to …

Word is that 2018 will be a strong Capricorn year. There are 4 Planets in that sign right now. Capricorn rules Saturn and it's predicted that this relationship will manifest itself by placing stringent demands on humanity. Whether in one's personal life, one's job, or political leanings, this configuration in the heavens supposedly portends that things are going to get very complicated. So say the astrologers. What say you, Del? Taking everything into consideration, i tend to subscribe to the idea that things will get worse before they get better. Not a far-fetched notion considering the quixotic economy and the polarized populace at home, and the possible repercussi…

Well, obviously because we, African American DOS (Descendants Of Slaves), come from different countries in Africa and etc. and it would take three (3) North American continents to fit inside the huge continent of Africa, this would be a huge task to narrow down for a complete answer. But this would be a quest for so many of us to find completion because of our ancestors being displaced from their origins and that has ultimately left many of us disconnected. Like the many viral stories that have high ratings on television shows that feature accounts of how people have been in search and then reunited to their birth parents after being adopted from birth, this subject of kn…

You need only follow two of these rules for acceptance by one or the other white tribe (LGBT/Liberals vs. Trumps/Conservatives). Follow them all and you could potentially be the next black President.

Is it me, or does it seem like wearing those masks make many women look more attractive? Just going to the grocery store gets me worked up now as I see dozens of women of all ages rolling around with masks on and I'm seeing one set of pretty eyes after another. Even women I'm intimate with and am already attracted to, when I see them with that mask on it's like meeting someone new for the first time....lol. It reminds me of those old television shows when a man invades an Arabian harem and sees a bunch of women laying around half naked with mask on. All you see is a pair of pretty eyes batting and staring at you. …

Kristen Welker, you did a fantastic job ! You tried to reign in President Trump who rambled, repeated himself and kept returning to debunked lies and smears against the former Vice President. All Trump did during the last debate is continue besmirching the life and accomplishments of Joe Biden, terribly misrepresenting his positions. It is quite comical that Trump believes it's unfair for citizens call him on his failures. But he has no problem claiming the successes of Barack Obama and Biden are somehow, his. He never had a plan to replace the Affordable Care Act. He still has no plan to combat the Covid-19 pandemic, which is about to get worse. Oh, and all the w…

IMO, the dearth of intellectually heavy television and theatrical productions that (can and / or would) showcase and highlight the true and potentially enormous cerebral capacity and economic and social depth of the black community at large, only serves to perpetuate the adverse black-focused stereotype(s) of crime, sexualization, drugs, guns and worse, that are constantly promoted by the mainstream media, big tech, and other select(ed) segments of corporate America. Thoughts and perspectives? Some references, for general information only... https://www.indiewire.com/2021/07/tv-shows-black-bipoc-creators-2021-2022-list-1234640512/ …

Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended for 2 weeks from The View for opening her pie-hole about the Jew: https://www.foxnews.com/media/whoopi-goldberg-suspended-from-the-view-following-holocaust-remarks Unbelievable that in 2022, these folks are still taking their chances with antisemitism. Jews don't play when if comes to the holocaust. I'm so jealous that Jews have the power to cancel and shut sh8t down when they've been aggrieved. I wish ADOS had something similar when dealing with racism. 😎

What is a 613 Helmet!? Trip to the Black Owned Business Oh My God! Please help me to get some travel money so that I can go to the Turkey Hut! This is on my bucket list. I first heard of this Black owned business in Houston, Texas from a viral video posted by a black own vlog site called Pink Book Lessons of which she mentioned a disrespectful Black woman who went to the restaurant this past September 4, 2022, to make a publicity stunt to go against the dress code policy. So, she referred to this woman as wearing a 613 Helmet and also a 304. It took me a google moment to find out the meanings and so, 613 helmet refers to the blonde wig that th…

Well, another mass killing has rocked the nation in the form of a massacre committed by a self-styled Muslim terrorist who shot up a gay bar on what just happened to be Hispanic Night. What an ironic dilemma for the crackpot right-wing followers of Donald Trump. The Orlando onslaught wreaked havoc on Mexicans and the LGBT folks, both of whom are among the favorite targets of Trump. But their secret satisfaction is tempered by the fact that their henchman turned out to be what they hate the most of all. A Muslim who claims ties to Isis! Trump, himself, couldn't wait to exploit the situation by going into his "I-told-you-so" mode, quick to thank what he clai…

Once you buy a book, CD or DVD, it’s indisputably yours and can’t be taken back by the seller. You can lend it, give it away, leave it to your heirs or sell it to a secondhand store. But the truth is that in most cases, “buying” digital content doesn’t confer any of those other rights. Rights to digital content or items have been revoked abruptly by Amazon, Apple and Barnes & Noble for a variety of reasons. Amazon stealthily removed versions of George Orwell’s “1984” and “Animal Farm” from customers’ Kindle e-readers after copyright issues arose with those versions; iTunes has removed albums from users’ accounts after the albums were withdrawn or changed by the…

Chris Hayden recently took our fearless leader Troy to task, lecturing him about brainwashed negroes and their slave mentalities, delivering a very impassioned diatribe in making his case. With a graphic use of rhetoric, citing his hero Ishmael Reed, Chris smeared the canvass with his impression of contemporary Blacks. But, in creating art, Chris also created a problem because, while an artist can use abstract techniques, a camera doesn’t lie. In endeavoring to reinforce his points, certain things claimed by Chris were more of a stretch than a sketch when it comes to how black life was in the 1950s (a period during which he was a mere child ) Troy couldn’t challeng…
