"All Fridays Matter" It seems like the corporate driven frenzy to start spending for Christmas starts before we can get through with Halloween. It is crazy the whole purpose of Chirstmas being a religious holiday has been completely obscured by "the suits." Today Amazon sent me two emails before 5:00 a.m. to remind me of the deals available for Cyber Monday--It is still November!. Since I pretty much have everything I need right now and I don't have any "mad money," Cyber Monday is pretty much a non-event for me. As a book seller, it definitely makes no difference as books are discounted all year round, and there is no really no urgen…

Sheeze! That Parisienne shoot-out has really touched a nerve in America which has apparently been "jonzin" for a new tragedy to revitalize the 9/11 crying binge it's been on for the last 14 years. What happened is Paris was terrible to be sure, but all mass murders are tragic and in comparison to the recent acts of terrorism in Nigeria, 129 fatal casualties ain't that awesome. Chiraq has accumulated a better record than that in one month. Ah, but French Lives Matter! What's also interesting is how a petulant America has so magnanimously forgiven a country with which it has been on bad terms since the French opposed the war in Iraq. How quickly we forget. So inc…

Your Presidency By: JonRenee Author: of Poetic Lyric Verse 1 ©2015 In 2004, I remember hearing a sermon by Pastor Trunell Felder from Chicago praying a prophetic word that, “In 2008, Barack Obama’s voice would be heard, not from his seat in the senate, but propelled in a position of presidency. Amen…..but men, have tried to bring him down and defame his character in the most disrespectful way. A black man in the white house, we thought we would never see the day….but this day, in my day, have I ever witnessed so much hate. I felt the pains of my ancestors at the same time the joy that mark the history of this day. His …

These type of Facebook posts just work my nerves! They usually are right at the top of my wall when I login to Facebook to check my messages, so I can't avoid seeing them. I hate these types of message and ones where people boast about their children. I don't even really know the person whose message this is, so it shouldn't even bother me, but it does. I know Facebook is not beyond experimenting with manipulating people's moods, and they sure know how to get under my skin. I see one of these types of posts most days, which seems unlikely to occur naturally given the behavior of my actually friends. Maybe it bugs me because I'm just not the t…

I think this is just another way of saying people don't read any more.... From an article I just read: Condé Nast, which is in the process of evolving its business to be more digitally nimble, is following a similar path as its print rivals. This path includes combining jobs and using the budget to establish new streams of revenue. Most companies are building out their video and live events businesses, while adding e-commerce. Condé is no exception. While each magazine brand there is in charge of managing their own budgets and head counts, Condé is moving money and investing in Condé Nast Entertainment and the digital group. The transition has been des…

I’m close to turning in my Liberal card and giving full sway to my inner bigot. I really hate right-wing Conservatives but, more and more, Liberals and their repressive politically-correct demands are starting to irk me. I’m tired of being expected to walk in lock-step with their party line which requires such things as heaping praise and awards on Caitlyn Jenner. I accept that this LGBT poster child should be free to embrace "its" inner identity, but that doesn’t nullify my right to think that Caitlyn is anything other than a cross-dressing male who I find annoying and ridiculous. I’m also tired of risking the homophobe designation because Gays turn me off …

Speaking of doing the white thing. This trailer for the next Star Wars Film was viewed 46,523,058 times in less than a week--that is roughly 5% of the planet's population! The film which appears in theaters in December is already sold out opening weekend in many places. Princess Leia was the only non-white-male character (of the human characters) in the original Star War flick. During the time comedians use to joke that white folks did not plan for us to be here is the future. The new film addresses the lack of diversity and some white folks are complaining about the film being anti-white. Can you image? Some guy on Twitter called the film's director J.J. Abrams a di…

This was an update written by Gwen Richardson. Dr. Ben Carson spoke at our church (Fallbrook Church in Houston) this morning at both 8:00 and 11:00 a.m. services. Many of my FB friends were interested in hearing my perspective on his presentation, so I'm posting a few details. First, there were a few dozen white congregants in the audience, more than we usually have. Fallbrook is a large church and we have some diversity but our congregation is 98% African American. This was one of the major Houston stops on Carson's book tour, which was the purpose of his appearance. He just released "A More Perfect Union," and is on a nationwide book tour. Second, his message was alm…

The Fall of Indie Discussion Forums I'm not sharing this here because I expect a lot of people to read it, or find it particularly interesting. When I saw the level of engagement, overtime, and the variety of opinions expressed, it reminded me of these forums back in their heyday, so that is why I shared it. I always prefered Youtube as a social media network over Facebook. You can make money on Youtube, when you post content. As far as I know they are they only major social network that does that. The quality of youtube content (videos) is simply better overall and Youtube doesn't censor content and exert so much control over what people get to see. The differences c…

My opinion on this subject is not as absolute as indicated by the title, but it is pretty close. I've been advocating for Black folks for a long time. While I'm not the Brother that you will see in the street carrying a sign; I make my contribution to the fight in my own way. Obviously, a lot of what I do has to do with books, education, and our presence on the web. Today I discovered that AFFRM, the African-American Film Festival Releasing Movement has rebranded itself as ARRAY. The differences in the mission are described below I was disappointed by the news, because whenever I see a change like this, usually, the Black part usually gets marginalized. If you inc…

The Journal of Blacks in Technology (JOBIT) For the past 20 years there has been a growing digital divide that created a competitive disadvantage in the technology industry for blacks. We can no longer ignore the fact that black technology entrepreneurs have a mere 1% success rate for obtaining venture capital. It is time we take real action to increase the presence of black technology professionals who represent only 1% of the workforce at tech giants like Google, Yahoo and many others. It is our responsibility to address the issue of black technology service providers who are missing out on billions of dollars in government or corporate supplier contracts and strategic…

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…

Anytime data is involved, people will game the system. I remember at least two different editors from "big 5" publishing houses saying that they consider how many Twitter followers someone when deciding whether they will publish them. One even mentioned a threshold, saying they look for 10k followers minimum. I thought that was the silliest criteria for determining whether an author would get published that I ever heard. They reasoned that having 10K followers means you have a platform. I always thought this was just another hoop they made Black authors jump through. In fact, I wrote an article saying writers don't need Twitter, based on the simple premise that the…

The circus that is currently passing itself off as the Republican presidential race is really making a mockery of American politics. SMH The front runner really needs to fold his tent and steal away into the night. All this egomanical mop head does is trump the truth, and he's not playing with full deck. Having said that, I find myself agreeing with The Donald's assessment of the only woman in this freak show. One look at the sour puss of Carly Fiorino and my immediate thought was that she'd be better qualified to audition for the role of the wicked witch of the north in a remake of the Wizard of Oz.. As for the persona Trump claimed he was referring to when he att…

Well, now that I'm on the same label as Adam Mansbach, I've been able to meet him in person & chat with him. He really is White. So I digress on that argument (I had insisted he was a black writer). He's also REALLY cute and kind. But he is NOT...as so many claimed....my King "ABM" (the popular board member on AALBC that I performed a kind of Duo dance for so many years). The web allows people to be anonymous and many of the most famous writers, editors & agents post here at AALBC.COM. There was the rumor that ABM was really Adam Mansbach pretending to be a Black guy and sitting in on our issues year after year---mostly tal…

I'm so sick of all the BS stinking up this world, that I'm ready to catch the next comet headed for another planet where the inhabitants are not in a contest to see who can be the most misguided. Hopefully, the supreme being, in whose image such aliens may have been created, will have done a better job than the supreme being who created Earthlings in his image. This would eliminate all the wasted time the faithful spend, vainly praying for terrible things to stop happening. America the beautiful? Not.

Naturally, there are voices out there condemning the "black lives matter" movement for triggering the unprovoked execution of the policeman in Texas by a black shooter. Actually, the scapegoat should be mentally disturbed sociopaths who come in all colors, and anybody with an ax to grind and a gun to shoot can surface in the atmosphere of resentment and polarization that is smoldering in America. Likewise, as previously demonstrated by the shooting of the TV news crew in Virginia, the workplace is fertile ground for disgruntled nutcases with co-workers in their rifle sites; especially when race becomes an issue. So maybe the slogan adopted by frustrated activists should …

I know I'm jaded because I saw The Black Code below and wanted to laugh. One would think it unnecessary to have to write down rules that we should not go around killing and robbing each other but it is seemingly so far from the what we observe, that is it indeed laughable, and sad. I did a quick search to find the source of this... I guess you could call it a meme, as that is about how seriously the codes listed would be taken, but I could not find one. However reading this made me think about the Black Panther's Ten-Point Plan which addresses not the victim but the victimizers. But this really is not an either or proposition, we have to do both- deal with our oppressor…

Anyone who knows me knows I've been singing this tune for years. I also believe all of the issues described in this video adversely impact Black people more than any other culture in America. I know part of the problem is that I rarely hear Black folks discussing social media in this way, and I think for the most part we are largely ignorant of these issues, and don't really care to think deeply about them. Another, perhaps more important factor, is that social media simply has us addicted. People who are happy and led fulfilling lives are probably not the same folks who have their cell phones out while dining with others in a restaurant. They probably never took a ba…

I'm a Black man, proudly black. I never wanted to live or work anywhere but among Black people. It is what I do now. But I really can't get so bent out of shape over the Confederate battle flag controversy. This media fueled-for-profit outrage does nothing to advance our cause. Before the recent mass murder in Charleston, I posted a photo of this flag which is flying quite prominently over I-95, in VA (see, "Confederate Flag Welcomes Drivers on I-95 to the South"). At the time, I searched for information about this flag, because it just seems so crazy that it would be on display so prominently--I mean it is a BIG-ass flag. I found some information about the flag, but…

August 4th, 2015 For Immediate Release! Black & Hispanic Babies Make Up Over 80% of Planned Parenthood Abortions By Elizabeth Lee Vliet, MD In the wake of Center for Medical Progress release of videos showing Planned Parenthood’s sale of human baby organs for profit, there has been an outcry that those who protest such organ sales are “attacking women” or “blocking women’s health.” What an outrageous statement. As a physician specialist in Women’s Health for over 25 years, I say categorically that abortion is NOT “healthcare.” Medicine and physicians strive to preserve LIFE. Abortion is death. Abortion is the anti-thesis of life. That is why most physicians do…

The Montgomery Bus Boycott, lasted over an year and was effective. Today, Black people, poor people, or any group of people with sufficient numbers could not organize a boycott of anything. Even if we could organize a boycott would we be willing to make any short term sacrifices for a long term gain? There are many things that Black people are responsible for making happen from the Obama presidency to the success of TV shows like Empire. Black people complain all day long about the bias of Fox News; why should Fox enjoy any level of financial success due to Black people? Would Black people be willing to Boycott the show Empire (watched almost exclusively by Black people…

I agree with a fellow FaceBooker when she asks "Does it strike you as odd that the disgraceful slaughter of a lion in Africa causes far more outrage in America than the daily lynchings of Americans of color?" Ironically, had this lion killed the hunter, excuses would've been made blaming the man for encroaching on the lion's turf, while explaining that this was just a case of a lion being a lion. Or is anybody ever outraged when lions kill each other, committing fur-on-fur crime. Too bad there's no such universal lamenting among human beings when a black person is murdered by a white cop - during the course of a racist just being a racist when he kills a black motorist…
