Now Black people have always supported AALBC. Indeed, they have allowed the site to grow for over nearly a quarter of a century—despite ferocious competition from Amazon, social media, and the reckless behavior of Google's search algorithm. But starting in the end of May and continuing to this day White folks are buying books from AALBC and other Black booksellers at historical levels — I mean HISTORIC! I have never sold as many books, in any three month period, as I have sold in the top three days of the last three weeks. I have only taken off one day in the last three weeks and that is with an additional employee who has also worked every day s…

Kurt Zouma is a black athlete. He kicked a cat and made a video of it. Adidas terminated their shoe deal with him. Years before Eden HAzard a white athlete. Kicked a ball boy and he didn't lose his shoe deal. Years before Luis Suarez a mestizo athlete. Achieved multiple incidents of biting another player. He didn't lose his Adidas shoe deal and Adidas publicly stated, I paraphrase, they talked and the player comprehends the standards of adidas. I end my examples that show incongruity. This question I have in this post isn't about the incidents or the actions of adidas. If a firm has the right to maintain or destroy a relationship based on a whi…

Piggy Backing off of @frankster's Conspiracy Theory thread....... I have a confession to make. I actually DID want to see a Zombie Apocalypse as a result off those vaccines. Or some sort off Global incident similar to it. Why? Because like a lot of people, I want to be right/correct and be assured that my judgement is sound. Like frankster and many others, I DO NOT trust those vaccines nor do I trust a lot of other things being pushed on society and think that they cause more harm than good. But without clear evidence and concrete proof, it's hard to convince others to have that same mistrust and in some cases even convince MYSELF that my positio…

Back in the 1980s, Irene Cara burst onto the entertainment scene. She was a cutie pie too: https://www.npr.org/2022/11/26/1139275959/fame-flashdance-irene-cara-dies She has passed away at the age of 63. Thanks for sharing your talent. RIP Ms. Cara. 😎

Most of you may or may not believe this but the VAST MAJORITY of the laws that have been made in this nation AFTER the Constitution was established were made specifically to RESTRICT AfroAmericans! That's right! Those who helped to establish the United States wanted to make a NEW nation separate from the old nations of Europe dominated by centuries of laws, rules, and customs along with Kings and Queens who had the right to just make up any old rule they felt like. They intended to set up a nation with FEW restrictions and only one solid Constitution that was supposed to prevent tyranny and limit excessive authority and rule-making. If you study U.S. history, yo…

He Named Me Malala Film Review by Kam Williams Rating: PG-13 (for thematic elements involving disturbing images and threats) Genre: Documentary Directed and Written by: Davis Guggenheim In Theaters: Oct 2, 2015 Limited Runtime: 2 hr. Malala Yousafzai was named after a girl who spoke out and was killed for speaking out. That folk hero was a flag-bearing teenager who perished in 1880 while rallying fellow Pashtun resistance fighters to an unlikely victory over British invaders in a pivotal battle of the Second Anglo-Afghan War. After settling on the very meaningful moniker, Malala's father inscribed it into his genealogy because no females were mentioned in his fa…

I've told you all for months that racist Caucasians are PURPOSEFULLY spreading the Coronavirus among people of color, didn't I ? I told you they were going to Black and Brown areas refusing to wear masks, coughing, talking loud, and deliberately spreading it among the population. As usual, yall either IGNORE what I say or ARGUE against it. Now we have EVIDENCE of them purposely doing it: Mississippi Health Official: Maskless White People Are Responsible For Spike In COVID-19 Cases ACCORDING TO DR.

In re-reading my 1950s memoir, the first thing that popped into my mind was how much I omitted. How could I have forgotten how low the cost of living was back then? It was during the 1950s that the minimum wage finally reached $1.00 an hour! Making 50 dollars a week was really considered good money. The annual salary of my first civil service job was $2,750 - a year, just a tad more than my present monthly pension. Of course there were no such things as credit cards. Man, don't get me started. Oops, too late... When I matriculated at the University of Illinois in 1951, no entrance exams were required. The only pre-requisite was that you were a resident of the state. …

Though, at the outset, this may seem totally foolish financially, but it has been done before and with great success, I might add. As they say, drastic times require drastic measures, so consider this. First, some historical background. After the Civil War, a great deal of land was confiscated from the southern rebels as contraband of war. In any event, there was some talk of this land being distributed among the newly freed slaves in those parts of the country. It was a noble thought and would have been an even nobler gesture had it taken place. It didn’t, though. What happened was that President Johnson held a National Day of Amnesty where he of…

Whether it's race, class, gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity our society is troubled to the least. It doesn't matter which party controls Congress or the Presidency either. Getting any significant political reform to benefit working people or ensure a more free and equal society for all seems impossible. So, what's wrong? What keeps us from moving forward? Consider the narrative of a center-right political consensus. Secondly, the role of so called moderate centrists especially in the Democratic Party; and lastly the role of wealthy people and big corporations. Politicians in both parties more or less uphold the idea of less government, lower taxe…

Rather than more gun control bills should congress pass an “impulse control” bill? The “impulse control and structured family act “ The bill would send resources to area’s where the most violence and unstructured families are. It will have special schooling and courses. The youth in those area’s need to learn impulse control through various treatments. Sounds like a logical idea.

The Democrats now have a two-member edge in the Senate, leveling another Donald Trump toady. Hee hee hee! Now, name some great judges, President Biden. You are the THIRD Democratic President who reduced the budget deficit. You will go down in history as a tough POTUS, willing to stand up the nastiness of the Republithugs and the craziness of the defenders of the BIg Lie. Rev. Raphael Warnock put the finishing touches on the mythical bullchit that Donald Trump is super unbeatable when it comes to politics and a business genius. Trump's entire company was convicted of fraud. Trump Org. was found guilty of criminal tax fraud, conspiracy and falsifyin…

My God! It's been a little slow around here. Anyway, The following clips are from a very poor quality video. The video was taken for personal use. Check them out. They should give you a few laughs. The speech was 40 minutes long. These clips are about 10 minutes total. Again, the sound is poor and images are no better, so just relax... I tried to post some of them right here, but I couldn't get it to work. So.... http://careycarey-carrymehome.blogspot.com/2010/04/mask-cant-hide-pain-is-be-babies-daddy.html

I have largely given up on TikTok. It is just not my thing. I logged on today to post a graphic of my bestselling books and saw this post of a woman, I don't know, recommending AALBC! At first, I actually had trouble reconciling what I was seeing. Was this lady actually promoting AALBC. I'm not sure if anyone has ever gone onto a social media platform and added a video explicitly recommending AALBC.

https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cpqe7rp388vt South African President Cyril Ramaphosa visited the White House Oval Office today. After exchanging a few compliments, POTUS OJ ambushed President Ramaphosa over allegations of white Afrikaner genocide. Allegedly, white South African farmers are being executed amd their farmland is being given away. POTUS OJ had a propaganda video and a stack of news clippings to back up his BS. There is no genocide of white South Afrikaners. Full stop. If it was true, white troops would be in the process of slaughtering 50 million Black South Africans. POTUS OJ i…

At first impression I was discouraged by Warnock’s defeat of Walker. I then started to do the post election analysis. I was pleasantly surprised by how well Walker did despite the negative press coverage and financial deficit. To people who criticize Herschel’s speaking ability I would point out he speaks better than Mitch McConnell. Stacey Abrams lost by an almost 2 to 1 margin. Herschel’s difference was by about 7 percent. So what does this all mean? It means that the Ga Gop didn’t put their full support behind Walker. The National GOP was also deficient. I would also add that Conservative media did not treat Herschel with respect. More to come.

(but anybody can respond obviously.....) If it's true that Black people make up the majority of those who commit murders, commit hate crimes, drain the social services system, and have out of wedlock births. What is YOUR solution to this problem? Now that the problem has been pointed out.....if in 10 or 20 or 30 years you see it isn't improving...then what IS the solution? What do you think should be done with our community as a whole?

New movie “ straight outta excuses”. Talks about the excuses made for the black community by fake compassion liberals . The movie will focus on structure, family, and responsibility.

Candace Owens Gets Backlash From Harry Styles Fans Over ‘Bring Back Manly Men’ Tweet Celebrities and fans alike rallied to defend Harry Styles on Monday in response to a negative tweet about the artist from conservative author Candace Owens. In her post on Saturday, Owens quote tweeted Vogue Magazine’s photos from Harry Styles’ cover shoot to voice concern over the feminization of men. “There is no society that can survive without strong men,” Owens tweeted. “The East knows this. In the west, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a …

A recent article by controversial Chicago Sun-times columnist, Neil Steinberg, advanced a theory that he shared with his readers because he wanted to observe Black history month from a different angle. In making his case, Steinberg cited a study that took place over 20 years ago. It was administered by Harvard sociologists and it tested young children to determine the long term effects of an experiment where these kindergarteners were given a choice to accept a single treat right away, or to wait until later and get 2 treats. The testers followed the particpants in this study for 20 years and found that those who waited and got the extra treat, fared better in lif…

Since we've been on ALL CAP posting, it occurred to me that my putting all my social media icons in my signature (icons at the end of all of my posts) may be a bit much or maybe even turning people off. What do you think? Have you ever clicked any? Why, or why not?

80,000 Protest in Israel! Vice Pres Kamala Harris Speech Sparks Protest-Univ. Michigan What a way to start out the new year! What an omen. However, based on how this new event has been presented though, I am not sure what is really being said. I do not understand who initiated this recent conflict that has led many Middle Eastern typed people to go out in the streets in America and the Middle East to protest. Over here in America, Vice President Kamala Harris appeared at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and supposedly sparked anger to the point that students began to protest on bullhorns. Sasha Obama had initially been enrolled in this university, but s…

Came across a channel I haven't seem before. It seems to be very positive and is geared towards African Americans doing positive things. Also have notice some listings of family movies.

It appears that Magic Johnson is one of the founders. http://www.aspire.tv/ http://www.aspire.tv/people

The content below is from a press release about what Dr. Sebi says about race, culture and black identity in a new book. All comments about the book and this post are welcome. Botanist and natural healer Dr. Sebi put his memoir on hold to collaborate with author Beverly Oliver on a project focused on health, race, family and culture and how to cross over from deep-rooted, life-threatening practices to acceptance and wellness. He named this process “dembali.” Dr. Sebi Speaks of Dembali: Crossing Over from Dis-Ease to Ease in Matters of Health, Race, Family, and Culture is the latest release by Oliver. Part memoir, part social commentary, the book is reminiscent …

The other day I was thinking about Gil Scott Heron's Poem the Revolution Will Not be Televised. I was considering writing a updated version to the poem, tentatively called, "The Revolution Will Not Be Tweeted". Realizing there is nothing new understand sun, I decided to search the term, "The Revolution Will Not Be Tweeted," and I actually was surprised by the abundance of content on the subject and discovered other people had already written similar poems on the subject, so I abandoned the idea. The Brother's version below is better than what I would have done, though I think far too long. I also discovered a four-year-old article writ…

Donald Trump got so angry in the White House when some things did not work out the way he wanted, he took to throwing plates in a rage. Ha ha ha. No wonder a few folks at his former Amen headquarters of Fox News have been taking on-air shots at him. Well, I bet what former Mark Meadows aide Cassidy Hutchinson revealed earlier Tuesday, June 28, is gonna make Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch positively giddy. For those not paying attention, ( and it seems many who love the smelly elephant party are not ), Murdoch is now so over Trump, he and others feel it is safe to take on the incompetent fool at last. 'Coz they done got themselves a younger and more savvy Whi…

The secretly recorded conversation between Malcom X and the FBI is just fascinating. I can't believe 20 years have passed since the air date of this program and I'm just now seeing it for the first time. Gil Noble's Like It Is program was terrific. Is their anything like it on TV today. One of the reasons Youtube remains one of the best things about the internet. Lets hope it is not completely corrupted by Google's relentless pursuit of ever increasing revenue.

Interesting debate I came across between Tariq Nasheed and a Puerto Rican urban historian on the origins of Hiphop. Perhaps @Troy and/or @Delano being from The Bronx may find this interesting given his presence there during the birth of Hiphop.

Hello All, The movie Precious was just nominated for four BAFTA awards, The British equivalent to the Oscars. The movie was nominated for Best Picture, Best Actress for Gabby, Best Supporting Actress for Mo'Nique. I don't know what the fourth nomination is in. One omission in the Best Actress category is Sandra Bullock. Could Gabby stand a chance at getting an award? I hope so.

Brother Leroy Baylor Co-host of The Communicators The Black management of WHCR has been told by the heads of City College and the CUNY system to take The Communicators off WHCR-90.3FM immediately. This is due to the false charge of antisemitism . I and the show have been portrayed as antisemitism in an ongoing campaign beginning formerly in 2006. It has increased since Minister Farrakhan appeared on The Communicators when Libya was invaded. It is a campaign to defame my name and character. The onslaught of charges of antisemitism relate to any time I mention Minister Farrkahan's name and The Final Call newspaper and articles within it. For example…

For years I've been maintaining a list of the most popular Black-owned websites. That list of 50 websites is actually derived from a much longer list of over 300 websites. The idea was to track the web's largest Black-owned websites who attracted the most visitors. Again, I started the list years ago and expected it to grow, but to a point where it would be difficult to manage. Despite the pages being one of the most popular on the website, the list has actually been shrinking! I have to review the list periodically to check for websites that are no longer active. Usually the domains are quickly snapped up by other, often unrelated, websites trying to take…

I don't know how the Ukrainian President Zelensky was on the frontlines of the battlefield yesterday and jumped on a train to Poland and a plane to the US. Pictured above, President Zelensky is addressing the U.S. Congress. Of course, he thanked the US for billion of dollars and weapons. This war is interesting especially considering the number of journalists and camera crews running around in Ukraine. Then, the Ukrainian president can make TikTok videos and visit other countries in the middle of a conflict. I refuse to believe the Russians can't catch president Zelensky. They don't want him. That's not the goal of t…

When I was a child I was told racism was when one person hated another for the color of their skin or their racial background. When I became a teen people told me racism was either thinking one race was superior to another or when someone was scared or didn't understand a racial group different than themselves. When I became an adult racism was said to be racial discrimination with power plus privilege in effect and therefore only certain groups could be racist. Is racism soon going to be when you don't validate someone's belief that they can be another race besides the one they were born? Why does the meaning keep changing?…

Open-mindedness involves being receptive to a wide variety of ideas, arguments, and information. Being open-minded is generally considered a positive quality. It is a necessary ability in order to think critically and rationally. This doesn’t mean that being open-minded is necessarily easy. Being open to new ideas and experiences can sometimes lead to confusion and cognitive dissonance when we learn new things that conflict with existing beliefs. Being able to change and revise outdated or incorrect beliefs is an important part of learning and personal growth. https://www.verywellmind.com/be-more-open-minded-4690673
