Hello - I also posted the press release about these books on New Book/Press Release forum. I hope I am not overdoing. However for this forum, these books undoubtedly qualify as they relate to the well-being of the African peoples and perhaps other people in tropical, indigent settings. Given the proper attention, these books could affect the lives of millions of African people. Before I go further, allow me to relate my pedigree vis-à-vis writing about HIV/AIDS and scientific/medical material. Here's my biography as listed on Amazon.com: **** Chris Jennings (Harvard, B.A., Biology 1976/77) excels at writing scientific books that fulfill the needs o…

Why White People are Called Caucasian I came across this scholarly video a few years ago and believe that it is very informative! At about the 16:25 minute mark a Black American man gives his viewpoint on his experience when he lived in Moscow about how Caucasians are viewed today in that area. However, my research goes much deeper than this scholarship! Although what I am going to share is not part of this video but I do believe it is very important. For example, in this video it is brought out that the term Caucasians was applied to White people around the modern age of our history. But now, I will share…

It's funny how one thing leads to another and then to another............ Been on a "Bumpy Johnson" mission for the past couple weeks....lol. Can't seem to get enough entertainment or information about the brother since a lot of the old movies I grew up watching were really about HIM but I didn't know it. I happened to watch one of my favorite Denzel Washington flix "American Gangster" a few nights ago and of course it was about Bumpy Johnson's driver who turned gangster Frank Lucas. At one point they played a song by Bobby Womack.... "Across 110th Street"...that we started jamming to. I downloaded it and was playing it over and over on my way to wo…

It looks like he will be running on the democratic line. Though he is actually an independent. "...there is a hunger in this country for a movement that is prepared to stand up to the billionaire class, which has so much influence over not only the economic life of the country, but the political life of this country. Everybody knows that the middle class continues to collapse, we have more people living in poverty than ever before, and the wealthiest people and largest corporations are doing phenomenally well, and people are angry." He has my vote.

I was asked the question via Twitter why did a prominent Black NYC Reporter and Commentator why he used the term Black on Black Crime and not use terms like Asian on Asian or White on White Crime. Here was his response that was on the air near the end of the Podcast. Because I like seeing data rather than just deal in generalities I looked up the 2020 Crime Statistics for the NYC. I was shocked to say the least. Here is one of the tables contained in the report. https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/downloads/pdf/analysis_and_planning/year-end-2020-enforcement-report-20210721.…

AND THE SONG IS CALLED A Thousand Years Song by Christina Perri Heart Beats fast Colors and promises How to be brave How can I love when I'm afraid to fall But watching you stand alone All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow One step closer …

https://www.blackenterprise.com/jasmine-crockett-lets-stephen-a-smith-know-she-heard-him/ Loud mouth sports *journalist*, ESPN talk show host and podcaster, Stephen A. Smith has been throwing shade at Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Smith seems to be angling to make the jump from sports talk to politics. Some folks have asked if he plans to run for POTUS. Rep. Crockett has been the most outspoken critic of the current administration among her peers. This young Black woman has more spine than the entire Democratic party. Nonetheless, it is a very bad look for Stephen A. Smith to use his platform to criticize Rep. Crockett. Not because…

This is a "spin off" of the thread that our brother Gibran started about Paster Paula White......one of the more well known interlopers who is getting rich off of imitating the style of AfroAmericans. I want you all to take a look at her style of preaching and her body language Look at how she sways from side to side and bounces while preaching. Look at the white tennis shoes with the tight jeans and color contrasts. She's clearly trying to ATTRACT and CHARM the mostly Black audience and get them under her spell as she preaches in a certain cadence. She learned all of this from AfroAmerican preachers.....n…

One of the things I like to do when I visit a new city is to check out the indie bookstores. It is almost always a pleasurable experience -- especially when the owner is happy to talk shop. Such was the case at Boarding House Books in Claremore, OK Claremore, OK is a really small town in North Eastern, OK. I have lived in an apartment complex with more apartments than there are people who live in all of Claremore. Its most famous residents include Patti Page and Will Rogers. Claremore, like the rest of state, is Trump Country. I actually went to Claremore for a completely unrelated reason and stumbled across the store strolling down their "mai…

815 people died in public spaces in New York City in the year 2023, the largest in NYC's attempts to record. It isn't the largest in the city's history. I am 100% certain higher numbers did that in decades past. Comprehend that NYC has only recently started to count such things. As with all things, the quality of leadership is the issue.

I hate the fact that Black people are resistant when it comes to spending money with Black people. The problem is embedded deep within our culture and I notice certain social behavior that appears to be prevalent among all Black societies everywhere on the planet that I know of. There is a basic flaw that Black people have about doing business with their people. Of the biggest flaw I notice, it is being disingenuous when it comes to finance. I kind of feel like the Hotep community has become a playground for conscious pimps who are set at exploiting the Black community for money and personal gain. It's not cute. As a result, you have certain platforms that app…

This audio interview was done in 2009. Ishmael saw into the future better than Nostradamus. But it is very frustrating to listen to this because while Ishmael is speaking the truth his behavior, particularly on Facebook, goes directly counter to what he is saying here. He is making Marky Z rich, as the saying goes... I just don't get it. I have invited him to comment here on occasion as well, but he never has. Of course it is terribly difficult to pull people off Facebook, so that does not make Ishmael unusual, but I don't expect usual behavior from a man of his intellect. We need him engaging on Black owned platforms.

I am truly saddened by the tragic demise of Malcolm Jamal Warner. I hate it when young folks are taken from us in the prime of their lives. It fills me with survivor's guilt. Especially since my still being around seems to serve no purpose; just takin up space. So long, Theo. You held a special place in all our hearts. Who didn't like you?😢

FRIDAY13-BLACKDEATHPLAGUE & Now Covid19- Intelligent Design? Stela of Nakhtmin So, the American government has made it law in that the Theory of Evolution be taught in our educational system. Even though Evolution has never been observed by any human eye, somehow law makers have published that it can be safely taught as truth. On the other hand, however, the subject of 'Intelligent Design' has been outlawed. Part of the legal jargon that outlaws intelligent Design would be of its connection to religion and therefore an infringement on the human rights of non-believers of Creationism. So the question that follows …

It's been 100 years since the last time the party in control of the House had a hard time electing a Speaker. The GOP has a narrow majority in the House and Rep. Kevin McCarthy wants to be the Speaker. Yet, McCarthy is about 20 votes within his own party short of getting it. So far, over 2 days, he has failed 6 times to secure enough votes. Congress decided to adjourn until noon tomorrow. Then, they will resume wasting taxpayers dollars. 🤣😎
