Basketball league for white Americans targets Augusta By Billy Byler | Staff Writer Tuesday, January 19, 2010 A new professional basketball league boasting rosters made up exclusively of white Americans has its eyes set on Augusta, but the team isn't receiving a warm welcome. The All-American Basketball Alliance announced in a news release Sunday evening that it intends to start its inaugural season in June and hopes Augusta will be one of 12 cities with a team. "Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league," the statement said. Augusta Mayor Deke Copenhaver, …

I just published a review of the new film War Room. It was the #1 grossing film this Friday, and was #2 behinding the HEAVILY promoted NWA flick for the weekend. What, never heard of War Room? Neither did I. At least not before publishing this review. I did not see a trailer. I read no social media buzz, nothing on Black Twitter (well maybe there was, but I don't follow it). I mean I did not even get a press release. Karen Hunter mentioned it on her radio show today (thank for what little Black media we do have left). If it were not for Karen I would not have known that this was a film with Black main characters and directed by a Black man! Now as I was looking f…

TO ONE AND ALL Cynique

When we were younger we used to complain about a media that always seemed to be on the look out for the craziest sounding people to use as a sound bite for a news story. They did this so much it became a cliche. Over the years the media has taken this type of "journalism" to a new level with shows like Jerry Springer which are designed to profit by entertaining the masses at the expense of the most dysfunctional in our society. Now here is a story (that someone forwarded to me); covering a very serious crime -- attempted rape. However rather than being at least partonizingly sympatetic to the victim; the highlight of the broadcast was a rant by the victim's brothe…

https://www.npr.org/2025/10/17/nx-s1-5576461/no-kings-protests-trump Tomorrow there are projectedto be 2,700 No Kings Protests across the US. Policies of the current administration are being protested. Of course, POTUS OJ himself is being reminded the US doesn't have a king. Never to be out done, the Republicans are calling it the Hate America Rallies. Possibly trying to stir up counter-protests. The organizers of the No Kings protests are committed to peaceful gatherings. Hopefully it will remain that way without any issues.😎

I knew if I waited long enough, I’d be back in style. With the public maybe growing tired of anorexic actresses sporting their baby bumps, focus has shifted to the healthy bodies of the past, perspective mummies instead of expectant mommies, One of the hottest celebs around these days is 86-year-old Betty White who is having a ball with her tongue-in-cheek dirty ol lady persona. Now joining her in the spotlight is 76-year-old Florence Henderson of Brady Bunch fame, appearing as a contestant on "Dancing With The Stars", flashing her bosom and shaking her booty like a 20-something hottie. Not to be out done 76-year-old ageless sex pot Sophia Loren is about to be th…

Don Lemon of CNN seems to thinks that it is about time for black America to have a candid discussion about the LGBT among us. He was evidently hurt by the allegedly homophobic comments made by Kevin Hart, who amidst the controversy has given up his host job at the Oscars. The offer to host is still on the table for Kevin Hart provided he issue a public apology to the LGBT community. Throughout time, the traditional view of gays has always been one of weakness. They are the perpetual victims of a homophobic society, and accordingly has taken their fair share of abuse. But are they powerless? It just may be that the doctor who is slated to perform your surgery …

Thanks to those who've been kind enough to initiate threads on my behalf @Cyniqueand @Pioneer1. Brotha Troy has provided me with a canvas and wings to paint and soar respectively. I've added my 2 cents to enough threads already for regulars and lurkers alike to read how I roll. I've already been accused of commiserating and complaining and also of being sexist, ageist, outdated. That's fine. I'm a big dude and Teflon too. I'm gonna keep calling balls and strikes as I see it with a sense of humor. I know all medicine ain't for all patients. Let's get it.😎

What did I tell you? Now, no doubt, a lot of you tree hugging leftist socialist lip dragging liberals are accusing him of selling out. You are absolutely correct. He had to. He's weak. That's why the Democrats allowed him to run. Can he get back his base? Sure. The rabid radical right is sure to overreach and act up. He can pull a Clinton on them and rope a dope them. For his base? He should get the hell out of Afghanistan AND Iraq now. With these tax cuts we cannot afford it. He could do it easy, moving them battalion by battalion and brigade by brigade. Who gives a damn about them two crapholes? Declare Victory and Get…

The debut of Caitlyn, alter-ego of female wanna-be, and former Olympic champion Bruce Jenner, is the trending topic on social media. The Internet is all a-twitter either praising or panning Caitlyn’s flipping of the gender script. For daring to share with the world her angst about being a woman trapped in a man's body, "Bruclyn" has become the anathema of the Religious Right, the poster child for the LGBT community and an enigma for ex-wife Kris Kardashian. But, since “she” had the money to remedy this mix-up via plastic surgery and hormones, she has earned the honor of appearing on the cover of Vanity Fair, flaunting her new identity, all glamorous and feminine, skill…

Today, August 18, 2011, is my 78th birthday, and I had considered engaging in a self-indulgent monologue attesting to the old adage of Life being not about the destination, but about the Journey. Yet, who needs platitudes? Uppermost in my mind is actually an amazment exceeded only by the gratitude I feel over having made it this far. My parents and siblings and so many of my friends have all gone on ahead, including the good buddy who was my husband. Yet, In moments of self-imposed solitude, I am alone but not lonely; reminiscence and serenity are my close companions serving as a Yin to the Yang of the vivacious children and grandkids who rejuvenate me. So, all thi…

We are all aware of the mainstream media's negative narrative about black men. We are constantly bombarded with stories of high incarceration rates, black on black violence, deadbeat dads and of course police brutality. From the outside looking in it appears that black men are destined for failure and there is nothing that can be done to change the implied negative trajectory that black men are on. But is the media's narrative true? Are black men really an endangered species? I believe the answer is an emphatic no and I have made it my life's to work to support and empower black men to overcome the negative stereotypes and to create extraordinary lives. In ord…

@aMhayes made a post about voting rights , linked at the bottom of this post, and as always I think of the history in all questions. The question is always, how do you get from there to here. How did the Black populace that was majority anti white in the british colonial form of the usa become majority pro -usa in modernity,multiple centuries? A long process, constant white opposition/suppression of black individuals/groups/leaders who oppose embracing whites or the USA in the black populace in the USA, a persistence among black individuals or groups who want to embrace whites or the usa, whether financed by whites or not. Now what does what was have to do with black…

This video speak to why I can't get all wrapped up into the Black Panther hype. I was not familiar with all the background and the Jewish influence in defining Black culture which is notion a reject on every level -- even when it comes in the forum of Black Panther. The speaker, Todd Steven Burroughs, Marvel’s Black Panther: A Comic Book Biography, From Stan Lee to Ta-Nehisi Coates, Reginald Hudlin's and the other Black writers impact was positive and has somewhat weakened my aversion to embracing the World of Wakanda. I still ain't doing no Wakandan salute.

While having a discussion with Troy in another thread over an answer he got from an Artificial Intelligence search engine, I decided to enter in a few questions of my own like the origins of HIV and Crack cocaine in the U.S. Unless you are in complete denial, you pretty much almost KNOW that both HIV is man-made and that Crack cocaine was introduced to Black America to destabilize it. These are called "Conspiracy Theories" but so much evidence is out there proving them that it's almost ridiculous to deny it and play them off as "co-incidences" at this point. So I used several AI powered search engines to ask these questions just to see what they'd say and they…

...So I was watching Divorce Court the other day. Interracial couple, bm/ww. They were having a dispute about his infidelity, her stabbing him in the foot and owing him 3 stacks for the emergency room visit...and her "ghetto" behavior in which this this samborific step-n-fechit remarks (TO JUDGE LYNN..who is a beautiful sista) "If i wanted ghetto, I would have married a black woman!" Of course Judge Lynn schooled this spearchucking bandicoot and read him like a damn book, lol. What amused me about his words is that this fool was neck rolling, using broken english and behaving just like a "ghetto black woman" he vehemently despises. So I ask....the standard fo…

Will the real Slim Shady Joe Biden please stand up?

MLK must be rolling in his graves. All the sacrifices he made for black people and how do they pay MLK back? They have become more violent than ever, have more children out of wedlock than ever , and commit more crime than any other race in America. I dont think MLK would appreciate the dreadlocks and tattoo’s, nor would he appreciate the “victimhood mentality “ in the black community. RIP MLK !

Growing up White is about Blacks who do not act Black enough, therefore are discriminated by fellow Blacks for not conforming and scorned by Whites who stereotype by race. This book describes situations Oreo's go through and guides them through difficulty with advice and suggestions. Growing up White is a guide written in a humorous tone and displays an eye opening lesson on a subculture that lies between two cultures. Oreo culture also applies to Biracials who pass for black.

In the year 2012 this is what can happen in America.

On a daily basis I'm being hit up by someone or some organization for money. I'm not talking about a sales pitch where you are get something tangible like a product or service. I'm not even talking about a charitable organization seeking a tax deductible contribution for a worthy cause. I'm talking about the solicitations for money where there is no direct benefit to you. The only benefit goes just to the recipient. These are not requests for a loan where you may get a little interest, or at least see your money again, but an outright request for money. These requests are indistinguishable from the "homeless" person asking for money from strangers on the street…

https://www.forbes.com/sites/janicegassam/2024/01/02/claudine-gay-resigns-from-harvard-why-black-excellence-is-never-enough/ While Dr. Claudine Gay seemingly survived congressional inquiry into her handling of war protests on the campus of Harvard University, she ultimately resigned under intense scrutiny from the white court of public opinion. Unsatisfied that Dr. Gay wasn't fired after the congressional inquiry, white folks went after her academic record claiming plagiarism in her writings. I find it hard to believe Dr. Gay's credentials were not verified prior to white folks allowing her to become president of one of America's mos…

I love the idea of space exploration and would like to go into outer-space myself. When the US landed a SUV sized vehicle on Mars I could not help but be impressed by the ingenuity, creativity, concerted effort, time and money that went into the project. Like landing on he moon it was yet more evidence that given the resources and the commitment there is very little man can accomplish. So then, why are some many problems, which are much easier to solve, than placing a mobile laboratory on the Red Planet allowed to fester while people die, stuffer and loose their minds as a result? Of course given on the crop down here on planet Earth I could not help but be remi…

Because gang related violence has become so rampant in this country’s inner cities, attempts to focus on this problem have taken on celebrity involvement. Recently ABC news anchor, Diane Sawyer, showed up in Chicago to cover a gang summit being sponsored by Father Michael Pfleger, local hero, activist Catholic priest, and the white leader of an all black congregation. These high level meetings between the hierarchy of Chicago’s gangs have been held before and have not worked or will they ever because guards can never be lowered and ground never conceded. Reputations have to be maintained. What I find compelling about the situation is the reaity of what is at th…

Race Race is based strictly on physical characteristics and genes. African , Caucasian, Native American, ect.....(there are other races) Ethnicity Ethnic grouping involves SOME race, but for the most part it involves shared history, religion, diet, language, social customs, ect..... AfroAmerican, Jewish, Arab, ect.... Nationality Nationality is basically what nation you were born in or in some cases depending on the laws, what country your parents were born in. Canadian (born in Canada), French (born in France), Nigerian (born in Nigeria)..... I'd personally put "tribes" in this category. Hausa, Fulani, Aztec, Choctaw, Cherokee, Zulu, Flemish, …

Landmark documentary about residents' reaction to first black middle class family in (all white middle class area) Levittown (PA)

"Cuba was always represented as a black child." I'm not a big fan of Louis Gates Jr., but this documentary actually tells much more about Cuba from the days of slavery to the days of the Cuban revolution than what is usually told.It even shows how the United States tried to import American style apartheid to Cuba. It goes into how Europeans were imported to Cuba to "whiten" Cuba. It talks about how the battleship was sent to Cuba to protect American interests long before Castro. It goes into the many years of American intervention, how America's colonialism replaced Spain's colonialism in America. The United States of America tried to impose a Jim Crow state in Cub…

Yesterday without saying the words President Trump conceded. There are most likely legal and political reasons why his verbal statement has not been made. The proof of concession is the directing White House Staff to cooperate with the transition team. With that being said the American people have chosen Slavery over Freedom. Clouded by the question of skin color the American people have decided that they would rather have the United States rule them than for them to rule the Government. The proof of this is the lack of repudiation of the New Green Deal, National Mask Mandates and Higher Taxation.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/28/eric-adams-drops-out-new-york-mayor-race NYC Mayor Eric Adams has ended his re-election bid. Citing a lack of access to campaign funds was the main reason Mayor Adams dropped out. A lack of money would prevent Mayor Adams from runnimg independently. The current administration didn't put that money machine behind him. It is also being reported that Mayor Adams was in 4th place behind Mamdani, Cuomo and Sliwa. Maybe the current administration has a job for Mayor Adams. I believe he'll resurface eventually. I doubt he's financially well off enough to stay retired.😎

Just checking in with the family. I haven't posted in a while because I've had a lot on my plate and spare time is dedicated to sleep, lol. Hope everything is going reasonably well with you considering the global "crisis" that seems to have been developed over the past few weeks.

The election is a wrap. POTUS OJ will be back in the White House in January. Yet, nobody is asking white women why so many of them still voted for POTUS OJ despite his offenses against their own gender. If that 46% of women who voted for POTUS OJ had ridden with VP Harris instead, she would have easliy won all swing states and flipped a couple of red states too. Never while berating Black men was it brought up that white women should have been voting against POTUS OJ considering his baggage.😎

I'm writing a blog about this and need some feedback.

So I had a twitter account. Had. So it turns out my daughter was wrong. I didn't LOVE it. I found it to be the biggest waste of time. I'm following people. They're following me. What? I don't get it. I could have been writing.

Slave Catchers, Slave Resisters is a two-hour History Channel documentary that depicts the system of slave policing—enforced by militia, armed community slave patrols, paid slave catchers, and federal law. The stories are set in both the South and the North, from the mid-1700’s colonial era through the end of the Civil War and its aftermath, and told through archival material, scholar interviews and recreations. While the stories show the brutality of the slave system, they also reveal another, often-overlooked side of the history—the strength and ingenuity of the enslaved. As historian Peter Wood observes, “Would they [the enslaved] go willingly i…

I went to see "Lee Daniels' The Butler" over the week-end with my granddaughter. She loved it, declaring it to be a great history lesson. I liked it OK. I think my luke warm endorsement has to do with me finding out that a white person wrote the screen play. When asked about his credentials to undertake this, his answer was predictable. He said he did research and interviews and then put his empathy and writing skills to work. The result was a fictionalized episodic journey, plodding through the 1930s Jim Crow South up until the Ronald Reagan presidency in the 1980s. Although I could not relate to everything in the movie, all the events were familiar …

You don't have to have a passing interest in numerology as I do, to be intrigued by what the new year will allow us to observe. Four times next year something rare will occur either at 11:11 AM or 11:11 PM when for 1 minute the day, month, year and hour will be represented by a series of ones beginning with the first day of January during which time we will be able to notate: 11111111 or (1/1/11 @11:11 AM or PM.) On January eleventh virtually the same thing will occur thusly: 111111111 or (1/11/11 @ 11:11 AM or PM) Not done yet. This is what further distinguishes 2011 from other years where it's possible to match up the day, month, year and hour, because in 201…

I still have not heard the President's farewell speech, but I have heard clips and I watched an Interview on TV last night. In each instance, I've heard Obama state that the country is better off as a result of his presidency. In fact, in the interview I watched last night, Obama said this was "objectively" true in any way you want to measure it. As an entrepreneur; educator; and someone who has been involved in a wide variety of industries including, defense, financial services, publishing, and technology the notion that the country is better off now, than it was 8 years ago, does not ring true. While it is true, based upon the data I have access to, that the…

This is why you don’t lie and make up salacious garbage for attention - or out of jealousy. Because celebrity blogger Latasha Kebe loved doing this and attacked rapper Cardi B relentlessly, posting 20 videos to YouTube in 2018 accusing her of having herpes, using cocaine and being a prostitute. I'm not a Cardi B fan. But I am lover of Truth. None of Tasha K's allegations were true and in 2019, Cardi B sued the lying witch for libel and defamation in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia in Atlanta. Tasha K lives in Georgia, according to Rolling Stone magazine. Well, guess what? Jurors who heard the case and all the vile smears have re…

If the premise the question is based on is illogical....then that makes the question illogical. Take Del's question for example.............. "What if you discovered that everything you believe is wrong" First of all, if you "discovered" something....you obviously BELIEVE that which you claim to have discovered. So that discovery is part of your BELIEFS. Now if you're gonna claim that "everything" you believe is wrong....then you would HAVE to acknowledge that your recent "discovery" was wrong too since it's a part of your beliefs. However that wouldn't make any sense because for that statement to be true.....you couldn't be correct about your …

Once Roger Taney, Supreme Court Justice, issued the order in Dred Scott that brothas had no rights that a white man was obligated to respect, his baby brother Octavius immediately passed the Forced Removal Act which was designed to deport all the free black men out of the country. White men in high places went to work and in a spirit of goodwill, gave blacks the option to get missing voluntarily or they would be forcibly removed. To appear humane to the rest of the world, whites disguised their emigration efforts as colonization efforts making it seem as though blacks were going back to Africa on their own and were not being coerced into leaving. This way, it could be pa…
