DOJ Department Of Just Us
I’m having a very tough day. I’ve always prided myself on being resilient. In the face of adversity I’ve always bounced back. Today I feel profoundly tired. Maybe because I didn’t sleep well last night it’s catching up with me. Maybe it’s me preparing for the inevitable. Yesterday the DOJ decided it should step in […]
Labor Day 2020
I’ve lived a long time. Today our nation celebrates another labor day. Labor day is about acknowledging the contributions of the labor movement and working class who have built this nation. This labor day comes at a time like no other in American history. The nation is caught in the middle of a national health […]
The Life Cycle Of A Pathogen
I’m a reader. It’s one of the guilty pleasures of my life. I was first introduced to author Isabel Wilkerson when I read her book “The Warmth Of Other Suns”. It was a magnificent book. This week I started to read Wilkerson’s most recent book “Caste” The Origins of Our Discontents”. The first chapter of […]
Something In The Air
Something is in the air. It’s so subtle that unless you pay very close attention you could miss it completely. Since the beginning of time mankind has been plagued with roaches. They are perhaps the most resilient of all of natures creatures. I’ve notione over the last 60 days that our human roaches have quietly […]
America The Myth Is Dead
AMERICA THE MYTH The myth of the American melting pot is dead. Our issue is bigger than #BunkerBitchakaDJT. When you have people like Tom Cotton and Clay Higgins sitting in Congress it makes you stop and think. How many like them are there? When you have Nikki Haley saying that there is no racism you […]
Playing The Long Game
I’m directing this post to a very specific demographic. That demographic is young millennial black people who are saying that there’s nothing for them to vote for in this election. I’m a firm believer in the old adage that the enemy of my enemy is my friend until they’re not. I struggle to understand how […]
America Never Was Great
America never was great, she was aspirational. She could have been great. Lord knows she was presented with many opportunities. Dealing with the horrible treatment heaped upon the indigenous people. America had the opportunity to be great but instead broke virtually every treaty that was made. Greed won out over Greatness. Dealing with slavery and […]
Law And Order Doesn’t Mean Law And Order
Last night I watched the final episode of the RNC shyt show. Here’s the thing, this is Trumps biggest con job. In order to be conned a sucker/mark has to be looking for a win without investing anything. Trump knows this game. During his first go round he told people that because he was rich […]
Pence AkA The Devil Is A Liar
So I know that many of you aren’t watching the RNC clown showing I understand. There is something that I want to share with you. Last night Pence gave his speech. I listened to it very carefully and I came away from it knowing that Pence is a fraud. He masquerades as a religious evangelical […]
A Ship Without A Rudder
It’s Thursday morning and we are a ship without a rudder. I’ve made it a point to watch the last three nights of the shyt show that the RNC is calling a convention. I suppose I could be called an old man, maybe even a grumpy old man. What I know for sure is that […]
