When They Lie . . . A Child’s Betrayal

Featured 
IMG_0289
I have deep opinions about young people, 13 - 25. I have deep opinions about parenting, especially now that one of my children is a young adult. And I certainly have deep opinions about mental health, battling these challenges myself. I have a light story before I begin the serious topic at hand. My wonderful 13 year old child s...

Taking Risks for Someone In Jail Praying for Ladayisha

IMG_9817
I was married to a man in the Feds for years and I saw personally how some of the young correctional officers would cross the line first hand and hear how they would bring in more contraband than anyone yet search those grannies and others coming in scrupulously. Why would you risk your freedom for someone locked up? I asked myself that q...

Queen Corine Mack, Char/Meck President of the NAACP

IMG_9361
You'd be surprised at how many times a woman sits in her car, on her bed, in the bathroom, in the living room and quietly cries because she's so stressed...But when she shows her face again she looks perfectly fine, unbothered and she still manages to smile and go about her business like nothing happened...Women are some of the most resilient creat...

Is Affordable Housing Just Politics?

IMG_9300
Is Affordable Housing politics or is it just another joke of the times amongst the “have and have nots”? The numbers are questionable folks, with the outrageous prices for apartments, mortgages are looking like a dream of the past for many. Being “houseless” as advocate Leondra Garrett coins it, is traum...

When The Lawyers Won’t Even Defend Us

IMG_9092
There is no amount of money that could have convinced me that three years separated from my abuser, I would still be in court, still telling the story, still reenacting the moments. Still. Never in my life would I imagine that one person could shatter my humanity and there be no restitution. Never would I believe in a civilized society that someone...

Facing Blackness . . . Thanks for Sharing

IMG_8968
My name is Dearest Price, one of the managers of Black Line News. I use to say I was an owner but I realized I can’t own a culture. I can’t own compassion to promote others. I can’t own Blackness. Over the years many people have said you will make a lot of money on Black Line if you just change the name. Well Black Line wasn’t created to ...

An Angel Of Accountability Takes Her Rest

377AA0FB-2A1B-4EDC-BFE0-AB9F1C743DF2
Yesterday was the funeral of Shanquella Robinson, a young lady whose life was prematurely taken by her associates. This is a special case because of how vile and evil it is to murder someone but to do that to a person so far from their home is horrific. The pain comes from the idea that no one had this young girls’  ba...

I Have A Dream Too . . .

F1F19CD0-8805-4F90-9A91-E22C9F762D26
It was January 20th, 1986, 18 years after his death and the dream was still being deferred. It was during a time when the only songs MTV would play in Black culture were Michael Jackson and we stayed disillusioned in the lyrics of Billie Jean, being proud, “the kid is not my son”. It was when the crack epidemic wa...

#ReciprocityRequired

F3BD9690-E039-4C44-87C5-AD4CC4D58529
Lauryn Hill killin’ it in her cult classic “X-Factor”, gave new meaning to the word “Reciprocity”, for me.  “Tell me, who I have to be? To get some reciprocity. See no one loves you more than me and no one ever will”. Wow!!!!! That changed the game in my relationships, my jobs, my faith, my mind and this jour...

100 Years and the Hate is Still Strong - Tulsa Race Massacre - Added to the Memorial Day Landscape

B25D4720-4D47-4CC3-A103-F155AE732E0F
One of the greatest cover ups in American History happened 100 years ago today in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As a Black Woman, thoughts of my people’s progression have often crossed my mind. Yet they have been saturated by the stories of the sharecroppers living like indentured servents long after the Emmancipation Proclamation, blinding me to...

Don’t Say Nothing About Memorial Day If You Denied The January 6 Riots - Politic’in

035E5850-47FE-40A7-98E0-1A7818C0BD69
As I watched a bunch of fake, hateful Republicans reject a commission to investigate what occurred during the January 6 Riots, this morning I couldn’t stomach as Fox News and conservative tweeters came down on Madame Vice President Kamala Harris for tweeting, "Enjoy the long weekend”. Titles such as, “Vice President Kamala Harris under fi...

You Don’t Get A Pass For Being An Ass - Oh, Chrissy

AvI never thought I would be sitting in the chair of the elders, quoting such greats as Maya Angelou; “When people show you who they are, believe them”, taking up the essence of Iyanla, “You gotta do the work” yet being classy like Michelle, “When they go low we go high”. But here I am, talking about some people I don’t even know yet oper...
