  • Politics Is Like Hiring A Hitman
    by Scott Woods inPolitical on2020-08-13

    For me, politics is like hiring a hitman. I have values and things I care about. I care enough about them to at least bother voting for 5 minutes every year for one issue or another. And because I care at least that much, I vote for people who align with the ability to realize the things I care about.

  • Punching Above Our Weight
    by Roger Madison Jr. inPolitical on2020-07-24

    I believe our vote is the punctuation of our voice. Without that resounding exclamation mark, I believe our voices are just incoherent noise.

  • Living in a Black No-Man's Land
    by Roger Madison Jr. inOur Community on2019-10-28

    There are many narratives that define the Black experience in America in this 2nd decade of the 21st century. Our striving over the centuries of our sojourn in this nation is a tapestry of every human experience -- oppression, enslavement, forced assimilation, dehumanization, exclusion, segregation, isolation, struggle, perseverance, achievement, excellence, celebration, mourning, despair, progress, setbacks, lynching, assassination, genocide, terror, self-hatred, low esteem, pride,...

  • Fighting Racism
    by Scott Woods inOur Community on2018-10-25

    I had a boss who was racist. Not an outright bigot, of course; her toolbox was more subtle than most. We bumped heads a lot over inconsequential things. She frequently couldn’t keep my name out her mouth. Lot of gaslighting. You know…2018 style. I tried a lot of ways to combat or navigate her issues. None of them worked, and that’s saying a lot because I’m really good at fighting racism. But at the end of the day – every day – she was my boss, I had to deal with her, and that was that. Finally I...

I JUST DON'T LIKE YOU.

A little black girl goes to school and her teacher goes on facebook and makes fun of her hairstyle. The little black girl's mother becomes outraged and threatens to sue the school system.  

African Americans become emotional and sensitive because they put the word Negro on the census count or because some white person says, "those folks".

Peraica, who is white and represents the western suburbs, was talking about how cutting the county's share of the sales tax could help the unemployed -- mentioning specifically how the African American community has been hit especially hard by joblessness and how "those folks" could benefit from slashing the tax.

The two words "those folks" set off Commissioner Deborah Sims, an African American whose district covers Chicago's South Side and the south suburbs. "I'm offended. 'Those folks?' If that isn't the most racist statement that's ever been made in this board," Sims fired back.

Black people substitute reading, critcal thinking, logic and reasoning with impulsive actions and emotional responses and since black people are so emotional and sensitive once you hurt a black persons feelings they want to boycott you, march on you and call as many people as they can to tell them not to do business with you .

This type of childish behavour, arrested development and primitive response coupled with the fact that black people won't read is what keeps black people from achieving the business savvy of being recognized as business professionals and educated consumers.

No matter how many reports or graphs come out detailing our buying habits and the need for black people to support black business it is because black people won't read that they pay no notice to the reports, graphs or calls to support one another.

Even though a company may have the product you need or the need for you to support your own when asked why you don't buy from this black person or that black business the answer is not as complicated as reports, graphs or black consumer buying habits.

Their reason is very simplistic, straight forward and to the point... "I just don't like you."

Dear Black America 2011

The flood gates of jobs, wealth, opportunity and prosperity are already beginning to open

As the flood gates of jobs, wealth, opportunity and prosperity opens it is every race, nationality and group for itself and it is God for us all.

If we get locked behind the closing gate of opportunities and fail to compete with other races, nationalities and groups for these incoming jobs African Americans are finished.

Don't look for nor expect other races, nationalities and groups to look out for us with crumbs, jobs and construction set-asides .
