  • 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.

Are we one Black People?

Dear Black People

Divide and conqure has always been the strategy used to keep Black People from coming together.  There is power in our unity.  So why do we remain in our seperate groups?  I'm not advocating that we leave our individual organizations.  I beleive those organizations should have this article inscribed in their by-laws, "(Organization Name Leader) will meet once per month with an organization whose purpose is to bring all Black Organiztions together to discuss the state of Black People's Conditions locally, statewide and nationally.  (Oranziation Name) will pool $100 per month to address and resolve the issues impacting the Black Community. 

Imagine 100 Black Oranizations meeting monthly, collectively pooling $100,000 per month to address the social, economic, education, political, legal, medical and research needs of the Black Community.  This is power!

This is very simple to do.  With all of our talented tenth, why do we not come together?  As future Black Leaders, you must demand that your Black Organizationswork collectively to uplift and empower the Black Community.

Respect!
One Love, One People, One Goal: Black Empowerment
