But this article is about what was revealed about Willingboro's local social media sites and it's people. Once the call and alert was...

Willingboro, the Village that has become a Beacon of Hope

wpl_i_20191120-121852_1
In the early evening of November 19th 2019, 6th grader Ka'Nyah Knight went missing. No Amber Alert, nor major news station coverage. Just plain old local Police, yet Willingboro's finest men in blue letting the village know one of their children went missing. Lo and behold they may not be Burlington County Times, or your major TV station, but your ...

Countering that . . . By - Link

Dearest, I respect your writing skills more than you could know but when it's wasted trying to influence opinion rather than uplift or educate I get offended. The black mind is a shattered glass and while we are picking up the pieces we don't need our leaders being criticized by the very people he's trying to lead. It's not defending Jay Z as much ...

Dear Dearest,

Dear Dearest,  My financial situation is in shambles. I have a 12 year old daughter and I was just laid off from a job in Florence, SC. She is ready to go back to school but other than that every thing is falling apart. I don’t even know how I’m going to buy food. My car was reprocessed and I am about to get evicted from my apar...

Treachery of the “Field”

31EF1AB3-CF81-411A-90D4-C379972035FF
​There was something very eerie about a “slave” oppressor, sitting on the porch, watching Black people pick cotton, as if it was a spectator sport.  “Woman get me some more lemonade!” Overseers serving as referees and as long as you had white skin, you had season tickets to the game. Imageries of lemonade, sweat, ...

My Depression

D44A577B-8672-4227-958B-F75D0BAB93EC
My depression fits me like a glove. It appeases my lazy and strokes my pity. It confirms what I see when I look in the mirror. It excuses me from doing housework. It gives me permission to pop these pills. It makes it ok not to pay these bills. My depression loves the dark and feeds off of make believe. My depression tells me where I can go and all...

Dear Dearest,  I’m from Nashville and I am so excited that Cyntoia Brown has been released from prison after 15 years for murdering her sex trafficker. I have been following this case  but to my disappointment, I just read she married someone while in prison.

​August 5, 2019 Dear Dearest,  I am the survivor of a physically abusive relationship from my husband who I haven’t seen in 4 years. I was a coward and I exposed my children, who were 10 and 8 at the time to their father physically violating me, breaking my nose, damaging my vison among other things. I never ...

August 4, 2019 Dear Dearest,   I have been with the same individual for 3 years. We started doing business together until we realized we had great chemistry. We had to immediately “x” the business relationship because it caused too much conflict with the new way that we looked at each other. We have even been disgraceful, f...

Charlotte Royalty, Anthony Hamilton - Hot Sauce

CC1113D2-399C-42CC-B63D-FAF03EE1A713
I believe the ancestors would have been tickled pink to see us Black Folks, being treated like royalty, with elaborate table settings, and scrumptious fixings of cornbread, fish and collard greens. Gathering at Londa's Place, a castle that some would have never imagined one of us owning, we packed all hues of Black and Browns to...
