Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us About Who We Really Are is a new book by former Google employee by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz. Seth was interviewed on the radio this morning I decided to read the book based on the interview. He described our Google searches as digital truth Serum and how our searches reveal much more about us that we even know about ourselves. He also talked bout how disturbing some of our searched are suggesting that as a people we are much more sexually perverted (no the word he used), that we present ourselves He drew a stark contrast between they way people presented themselves on Facebook very what …

Well, February is underway, ushered in by the ground hog seeing his shadow, an event signifying six more weeks of winter. February also signals the start of African American history month, an observance which sets aside 28 days every year for blacks to extol their icons, recognize their unsung heroes and bitch about the shadow cast by the racism that represents the ongoing "winter of their discontent". White racism is indeed at the core of black discontent, even as it sometimes takes a back seat to black freedom. Poster Xeon spoke about blacks being free to do all the things they deem necessary to advance themselves, if they so choose. Conservativ…

Another mass shooting event in the US. 18 killed and 13 injured. The shooter is a marksman who just 2 weeks ago was in a mental health facility. Not only was this killer allowed to keep his weapons. He made a few statements on social media about killing folks. The FBI is at his house asking him to come out with his hands up. Considering what this killer has already done, the authorities should force their way into his home and take him down. The craziest part is whether it's an active war or shooting event or standoff...the media is reporting live from ground zero. 😎

The Republicans' big lie about reconciliation By E.J. Dionne Jr. Thursday, March 4, 2010; A21 For those who feared that Barack Obama did not have any Lyndon Johnson in him, the president's determination to press ahead and get health-care reform done in the face of Republican intransigence came as something of a relief. Obama's critics have regularly accused him of not being as tough or wily or forceful as LBJ was in pushing through civil rights and the social programs of his Great Society. Obama seemed willing to let Congress go its own way and was so anxious to look bipartisan that he wouldn't even take his own side in arguments with Republicans. …

I can’t believe what I‘m hearing on the news! It’s not bad enough that whooping cough and head lice have resurfaced, now bed bugs have made a come back, their infestation reaching epidemic proportions. “Good night, sleep tight,” has taken on a whole new meaning. Yikes! Oh well, this is something to take my mind off Obama having to rely on the Republicans to get his bill for more billions to fund the war in Afghanistan after his fellow Democrats refused to support this folly. No wonder his hair is turning gray. Add to that the irritation caused by all the hoopla involved in keeping the details of Chelsea Clinton’s multi-million dollar wedding a secret, and my chagri…

This has got to be so hard for the family of Tyler Clementi. Can you imagine the heartbreak of the dead son as the mother of the defendant, bawled and that her son (who was possibly facing at least 10 years) had not even yet had the chance to live his life, that he already had "so much on his shoulders"? What about the Tyler Clementi? Who has less of the chance to live his life? Is the one that was breathing and looking quite indifferent as the mother of the son he had spied on cried? Or is it the one who ended his life after being humiliated by the defendant's cyber actions? I know that Ravi did not physically murder Clementi, that Clementi took his own life. Howeve…

And we also have Elliot Rodger the young man who shot up a southern California college town a few weeks ago because of his frustrated sex life .........a man who was in his early 20s. Though vastly different in age, what did these two men have in common with eachother that much of the press has overlooked either by accident or on purpose?

The image above is from a screen grab of a video I saw on the New York Times website (I'm pretty sure). They wrote an article about the election on Tulsa's mayor, a white guy in his early 40's. The most striking thing is that mayor, on his second term, the 4th Mayor of Tulsa in his family going back to the late 19th century! There was at least one Black guy running against him, the Black community is not happy with how the local government is treating their Black citizens. What else is new this is America... But I digress... Pictured s what is left of Tulsa's famed Black Wall Street. There is a tee shirt shop in the middle of the block. I did not see any d…

But while this post has a title and I began my prose referring to the culture of communication. M agenda is other. My agenda is the following, a question. If you had the ability to place a tool to improve communication online, online only, what will it be? The video below is abou a case between two black entertainers, mostly for entertainment but a warning to any of you who may one day be truly large epersonalities, if you are not already

Commentary: Obama Wants the ‘Contest of Ideas’ Rigged https://tennesseestar.com/2022/04/18/commentary-obama-wants-the-contest-of-ideas-rigged/ "Never mind that he rose to power as a manipulative acolyte of Saul Alinsky, the famously amoral Chicago activist who endorsed disinformation as a tool of “community organizing.”" "Obama’s definition of “disinformation,” which he ponderously presented at a recent Chicago powwow on the subject, conforms perfectly to the Alinskyite “rules for radicals” that launched his career: “a systematic effort to either promote false information, to suppress true information, for the purpose of political gain,…

2 teenage Black girls are being charged with murder after beating a 74 year old man to death. These thugs didnt need a gun. Just goes to show we need thug control NOT gun control. Hope they die in prison. Guarantee they were born to young mothers and there is no structure in their homes. This is all too common. More violent black teens and these were girls. Just stunning !!!!! https://www.fox29.com/news/james-lambert-death-girl-14-turns-herself-in-for-beating-death-of-73-year-old-in-north-philly-police-say

All over the internet you see articles and videos of "white dudes for Kamala" this and "white dudes for Harris" that. Making a big deal over her White supporters. Now tie that to the fact that she's married to a White man. I can already see the narrative: "White men got Kamala Harris in office while Black men sat on the couch" Not only will this be used to drive a wedge further into our already divided community as Black women pat "white dudes" on the back for helping Harris get in while giving Black men a side-eye for not supporting "sista girl" . But it will also be used as a excuse for her administration to do little for the AfroAmerican community sin…

Well, I didn't actually go there. I listened to their live stream (Friday, July, 2010). I received an e-mail announcing the departure of Al Goodman of The Moments. Oh yeah, love on a two way street. In the e-mail there was a link to the station in Harlem (WHCR 90.3 FM). They played my kind of music. I even called the station and asked for a special request. They were more than happy to honor my request. They got on the air and sent one to me. They even mentioned that I was way out in Iowa.

Being a police officer, especially, in New York City is a difficult job. The work is stressful, your see the worst humanity has to offer on a regular basis. The job can be thankless. A role that is needed, desperately in some locations, but if a mistake is make the general public is all over you. That said I can not fathom a single justification for the senseless murder of a 51 years old Black man in broad daylight on a crowded NY City street. 12 shots fired by 2 officers, hitting the Brother 7 times (or so I've heard). I don't get it. They decided to execute kill this man. The police commissioner said the actions of the officers were justified. I don't see it.

This is a short (sub-3 minute) video. If made me think of conversations we have been having here. Particularly as if concern race. Anyone who has been active on these forums knows I believe we should dispense with the concept of race in its entirety because it is flawed scientifically and it provides a mechanism for us to hold onto racist stereotypes that have never served us. The video below speaks to the later. Leonce, the Brother speaking in this video is a novelist. His book, I Dreamt I Was in Heaven - The Rampage of the Rufus Buck Gang is an 18 time AALBC.com besteller. He is currently the 20th bestselling author on this site over the past 20 years. …

REVIEW REQUEST Thank you for considering my request for a review. I am a white writer whose recently released novel is peopled with characters from the African American community. Reviewed favorably by numerous white critics, it lacks the balanced point of view that only a critical assessment by a literate African American community can give. Therefore my appeal to you. Called “an insightful and at times darkly disturbing glimpse into an institution rarely entered by most readers” (Dr. John M. Coggeshall, Clemson University) Penitentiary Tales: a Love Story recounts the escapades of Dean Davis, a thirty-something, educated, straight white male from the affluent community …

I originally saw this done on Instagram Live by one of the Big Publishers. I am in the process of doing my Black Children’s Book review weekly. I ran into a technical glitch so I will try it again tomorrow. Undaunted, I decided to face the world with Twitter. I think it will give me more opportunities to polish my craft. So I humbly submit my first effort. Let me know what you think 🤔.

Viral Video of College Student Racially Attacked This newsbreak has been circling for a few days and continues to be the headline. A University of Kentucky incident in which, on this past Sunday in the wee hours of the morning, a young White student stumbles back into her dorm building and moments later launched a racial attack against another student who was the desk clerk that reached out to help her to safety. The desk clerk was a young Black girl named, Kylah Spring, was thrust into the public view because of the unfortunate verbal and physical racist attack launched against her due to the actions of the student named Sophia Rosing.

Second pertaining to the history of the tranSahara slave trade and the African continent But that is the ideality of the matter.

Back in 2020 I wasn't for Kamala Harris as Biden's VP. I felt at the time there were more Progressive Black women in Congress who were better suited like Barbara Lee also from California. But then again I was also for Bernie Sanders until Biden got the nomination. At times she has struggled as Vice President but she's persistent and willing to take the fight to Republicans. Now she's likely to be the Democratic nominee, and if she wins President. What will that mean for Black people? We would benefit from certain policies in a Harris administration just like that of Biden. But it's not likely that Harris will do anything significant that's race specific like…

Not since O.J. Simpson was aquitted has there been an uproar like this one following the "not guilty" verdict rendered in the Casey Anthony trial. And none are more outraged than the lynch mob of TV legal experts who have been trying this case in the media. Also calling for the head of Casey are the nation’s community of loving mothers who can’t imagine how any woman could harm her own toddler. Emotions have compounded the indignation because the public just can’t deal with how this case assaults the idea that parenthood is a privilege not a burden. To add insult to injury, party girl Casey Anthony was not only a bad mother, but she has been deemed a psychopath a…
