  • 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.

Black Moms Connect Online

Black Moms Club

I've always been a web savvy sista, but after I had my son my online interests shifted further into the realm of black parenting and mommyhood. I joined several mom communities, but I thought it would be nice to have a group just for black moms so I started to black moms club. Moms can discuss topics relevant to parenting and the black family as well as share photos, videos, and resources. I am very excited about the site. In only a few months the original site got over 300 members!
