They Came for the Jews, Suddenly no one’s left

Men Walking on a concrete road by Blake Campbell on Unsplash Finally, the Nazis, the Klan, the white brotherhood came for the Jews, just as they did in Hitler’s nationalist Germany; and suddenly there is no one else left to come to the aid of the defenseless, the vulnerable, the Blacks, the Christians, the Muslims, the immigrants, the poor. First they came for unarmed Black teenagers walking home on the streets of Florida and Missouri and in the drive-thru in Jacksonville. Then they came for a defenseless young lady in Texas, a group of elementary school children in Sandy Hooks, a

Russians Trolling Black Voters -Appropriating Words of Malcolm X

18/10/20 at 10.24pm / by Michael / 0 Comment

Just 18 days before voters hit the booths in the 2018 midterm election and Russian trolls (for lack of a better definition) have launched a vigorous attack on Black voters with an old Malcolm X Speech. In the early 1960s Malcolm X broke down the Democratic Party as the northern wolves and the southern Dixiecrats. During this period of American history, Blacks were prohibited from voting in the Democratic Party Primaries in the South. These primaries were termed as the White Primary by southern Blacks. The White Primary determined the white Democrat who would represent the Democrats on the

Griffin, Jr. I think we all know what time it is. It is time up for talking. It’s time to early vote. Let me hasten to say that I am a Democrat.

I am pragmatic enough to know that in government we

Our guest columnist, Floyd L. Griffin former Georgia State Senator and former mayor of Milledgeville, Georgia sound off on the down ballot in Georgia’s midterm elections.By Floyd L. Griffin This year year, don’t forget to vote the down ballot. I’ve been in politics for a very long time, probably far longer than I want to admit. I’ve cast votes in the Georgia General Assembly that at the time seemed liked the most important vote in my lifetime and the lifetime of the good people of Milledgeville who sent me to Atlanta. Like many of my neighbors, I’ve participated in national

“biscuits on chopping board” by any other name is still a cracker by Anita Peeples on UnsplashDid Donald Trump say it or didn’t he say it and does it matter if he said it. The it being the “N” word, which stands for you know what, the name given to Black Americans by white Americans when they want to denigrate Black people and to flex their white supremacist muscles. Trump said he did not say it. Omarosa Manigault Newman said he said it. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said she would not be surprised if there is a tape of him saying it. Georgia State

Trump, the 45th President of the United States can’t dislodge a 44 year-old ordained Baptist Preacher from his craw.

Photo by Daniel van den Berg on UpsplashIf Omarosa Manigault Newman has the smoking gun which would bring an end to the Trump presidency should she be heard? I pose this question because on Sunday’s Meet The Press with Chuck Todd, Omarosa said her third book, Unhinged: An Inside Account of the Trump White House (Galley Books, 330 pages, 2018), reveals she witnessed Trump place a sheet of paper in his mouth and chew on it after receiving it from his then fix it attorney Michael Cohen. Todd did not follow up to find out what information was contained on this sheet

King James Trumps The Loud Mouth Without Trying

Photo by Rex Tavahn on UpsplashKing James trumps the loud mouth in the White House. LeBron James a high school graduate and multi-millionaire proves once again that he is smarter than the loud mouth in the White House. Said loud mouth is purported to have a degree from the Wharton School of Business and to have millions of dollars that no one seems to be able to verify. One thing for certain, as CNN’s Don Lemon noted, while the loud mouth’s claim to fame is in putting children in cages, King James has added to his fame by putting children
