This is my youngest kid, who finishes at Williams and Mary this semester. I ask my kids about what's hot in the social media world. They are up on my world view regarding social media. Maybe this one will come work for me one day. Actually I'll probably end up working for her, the old guy in the corner responsible for maintaining the handful of legacy websites that have not been migrated to Facebook.

Has anyone ever considered what all this negative/violent programming does to one's psyche? I can't image there is no adverse impact. I think about this as I watch HBO's programming from True Blood, The Wire, The Soporanos, Game of Thrones, Broadwalk Empire, etc all this evil can't be good for you; can it? When I was a kid the TV shows seemed to be much more wholesome and I enjoyed them. Even some of the programming that addressed culural issued did so intelligently and with all the gore, sex, obscenities, etc. I think shows like All in the Family, or even Star Trek did this quite well. I wonder if I watched more wholesome TV shows would I be hap…

Further confirming my belief that the tide has turned and white people no longer feel the obligation to be politically correct when it comes to the black race, the annoucement of the nominees for the highest honor the movie industry bestows on its finest, snubbed all of the worthy candidates of color. Or as the social media captioned this blatant oversight: the Oscars have gone white. Ava DuVernay, the black female director of "Selma" and David Oyelowo, the actor portraying MLK in this film, were passed over by the Academy Awards committee, their worthy performances left unrecognized. The trickle down rejection of racial equality that has its origins in the disrespect …

My name is Brittany Sievers and I am a graduate student in the Human Services Department at the University of Illinois Springfield. I am in need of university student participants to complete a survey on the role of vocational calling and work meaning in the career development process of college students. We are seeking individuals who (1) are currently enrolled in a four-year university within the United States and (2) are at least 18 years of age to complete an anonymous web-based survey that will ask you about the role of vocational calling and work meaning on the career development of college students. The entire survey should take approximately 30-40 minutes.…

This video was created by VOX which does a good job of explaining Charlie Hebdo and a great many other things. As mentioned in the media Charlie Hebdo lambastes all major religions. Obviously, publishing content offensive to Muslims is a lot more dangerous. I have to give Charlie credit for having the courage to do this. I would not do it, but at the same time it is not that important or interesting to me to offend followers of the world's religions. I understand that that the next issue of Charlie Hebdo will include another image of the Profit Muhammad, this time crying. The print run for the next issue will be increased by two o…

I saw this film yesterday. Fela was great band leader and activist, but homie was off the chain. I guess he had to be; to stand up to the Nigerian government the way he did... This bio-pic is definitely worth checking out Finding Fela: Music is the Weapon tells the story of Fela Kuti's life (1938 - 1997), his music, and his social and political importance. This in-depth look at the man who created Afrobeat (a fusion of Jazz, traditional West African rhythms, Funk, Highlife, and psychedelic rock) brings audiences close to Mr. Kuti's fight against the dictatorial Nigerian government of the 1970s and 1980s. With his audacious music and a great deal o…

The Trials of Muhammad Ali is not a conventional sports documentary. Befitting its extraordinary and complex subject, the film examines Ali's life outside the ring, beginning with the announcement of his deeply held and controversial Islamic religious beliefs, and the decision to change his "white man's name" of Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali. The film explores his refusal to serve in the Vietnam war, even after his status as a conscientious objector was denied, on the grounds of protesting racial … More Rating: Unrated Runtime: 1 hr. 34 min.

Smoke and Mirrors. Backing the wrong horse.

For me, writing a book can be compared to a mystical quest. It’s like the story already exists in my creative realm, ready to be “downloaded” into the hard drive of my brain. Any book begins with inspiration, and the ongoing triangle that puts black women in competition with white ones for the affections of black men was mine. It’s a topic I’ve never read a book about so I became motivated to write “The Only One”, a novel based on this scenario. I wasn’t sure where this subject would lead me but, equipped with my personal observations and input from my children and their friends, I sat down at my computer, placed my fingers on its keyboard, accessed its word proces…

From where I sit, observing the world the way I’ve been doing for the last 50+ years, I see one change in particular that is gradually taking place in America. “Political correctness” is receding, and black people are losing their relevancy. Because they no longer fear the stigma of being called racist, having neutralized this term by referring to it as a despicable practice known as “playing the playing the race card”, red state Americans no longer care if their true feelings about Blacks are exposed. Just check out Twitter and FaceBook. They’ve repressed their disdain long enough and if this offends Blacks, well they’ve only themselves to blame. "You people" had your …

Now we can't exactly get away with the same type of actions, but Prince is always ahead of the curve on what should be done to empower artists. Here is a short article.

Oh the humanity! Why, Tavis why!? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6COpmxyEA0A When did the brother get so fat? OK if they offered me money to prance around in a wig, I probably do it too, but I don't have any money. But if I were a Tavis Smiley there is no way in hell I would do this unless I really needed money. It has simply been fascinating watching Al Sharpton go from Morton Downey to the White House while Tavis goes from respected journalist to Dancing with the Stars. Then again who ever thought Bill Cosby would be accused of rape by 15 different women.

"And to those of you who say I know nothing about Hiphop, if “Blurred Lines” is Hiphop, I don’t want to know anything about it. So let me officially go on record now and say that I hate Hiphop. There are certain artists who claim Hiphop that I dig, but Hiphop as a whole is wack. It’s a parasitic culture that preys on real musicians for its livelihood. I may not know anything about Hiphop, but I don’t have to. Without real artists and musicians like me, you’d have nothing to steal. I know enough about it all to know that."

Alex Poucher, a heavily involved member of Anonymous, sat down with Frank Ancona, Imperial Wizard of the Traditional American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan this Sunday.

Following the release of a controversial flyer by the KKK, Anonymous members took over the KKK's national Twitter

The video communiqué displays a cross section of the myriad groups activated in the region and includes exclusive footage of Vonderrit Meyers Sr., Ferguson Mayor James Knowles III, celebrated artist and HandsUpUnited.org cofounder Tef Poe, Taurean Russell, Lost Voices organizer Low Key, Millennial Activists Unite…

A Black man's view of Daniel Handler's Racist Remarks During the National Book Awards. The idea that when I search for Jacqueline Woodson and National Book Awards I don't get information about her accomplishment first, I get news about the "Racist" comments made by the night's MC Daniel Handler (of Lemony Snicket fame). I was at the event it was a sea of white folks. All of the people who were so bent out of shape about the stupid joke could care less that there were virtually no Black people in the audience, at arguably the most prominent book event of the year. Of course the media could care less about us and utilized tremendous energy talking a…

It ain't easy being a celebrity or high-profile public figure these days, unless of course you are Kim Kardashian who makes a lucrative living off of being an airhead exhibitionist. Unlike other female celebs sniveling about the omnipresent paparazzi, or the hackers posting nude pictures of them on social media sites, Kim relishes any opportunity to flaunt her assets. Her popularity is the 8th wonder of the world. Elsewhere, hardly a week goes by where those who have gotten what they wished for, upon getting it, are now burdened with the stress that comes with success. Superstar athletes who, between cheering up their fans were beating up their loved ones, have fal…

Well, the mid-term elections are over and the voters have spoken. The message sent by the majority of these typical Americans who went out and voted was that they are dissatisfied with the current state of affairs. Implicit in this message is that they don’t like Black leaders, Hispanic aliens, Gays, Feminists, or Environmentalists. They’re against same-sex marriage, a woman’s right to choose, separation of church and state, health care for all, raising the minimum wage and lowering the interest rate on college loans. These Fox News junkies reject gun controls, support murderous cops, and approve of a macho military. They’ll tolerate low taxes for the rich but hate h…

On a daily basis I see things on my Facebook wall that demonstrates how easily we can be manipulated into believing that something is true, when it should be obvious that it is not. Facebook, for example, has been putting a lot more video on my newsfeed lately. I've started to notice a lot of videos that are clearly fake. However, based upon the comments posted, people believe these fake videos to be true. It is very scary how easily we can be fooled. For example, I saw a video posted by someone I thought was pretty sharp. They used this video to prove how skilled the martial artist Bruce Lee was with nunchucks, which is a weapon made of two, foot-long sticks, co…

Presumably this came from Actor Bill Cosby. I got it in an email from a buddy. It sounds like something Bill would write, but it really does not matter too much in that I can relate to some of his sentiments. I'm not nearly as old as he is, and have not lost a child to murder or realized his financial sucess, but somethings are universal for men how have raised children in this society and have been around long enough to see how jacked up things ae becoming. What do y'all think? Bill Cosby: "I'm 76 and Tired" I'm 76. Except for brief period in the 50's when I was doing my National Service, I've worked hard since I was 17. Except for some some serious health ch…

I'm not happy saying that, but that is my take. Plus I don't consider this particular story "news." Again, I get that it is starling, alarming and sensational. Indeed, I was even promoted to post it here. But if our most prominent new source has to broker in this type of n…
