The RNC had a plethora of Black Men to choose from. I’m talking CEO’s, PhD’s, attorney’s and judges, who had integrity and believe in conservatism yet they choose Hershel Walker? Hershel Walker, the man that paid his “baby mama” for an abortion? Hershel Walker, the one who has a history of domestic violence? Hershel Walker, the man c...

A photo says a thousand words and in many cases convicts without explanation. I wasn’t looking for Jerry Jones to justify why he was a spectator as Black Little Rock students attempted to integrate public schools in 1957. Yet, I didn’t expect him to use the excuse he was just a kid when most brutalities during that era occurred ...

Death of a Queen Dearest PriceAgape VoiceI write this piece with much hesitation because I have seen the memes about the death of Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor on Black Twitter and I really don't want to loose my Black card today. I purposely call her by her name and not queen because historically she was not a Queen to Black folks but one of th...

The Oscar Plantation has had some of the grandest affairs and it awards some of the finest players in the arts. They even give a few awards to the blacks and browns, supporting the idea that they can perform too. But this year, my, my, what a spectacle, when one of the most trusted of bucks decided to slap an over...

The worn torn photos from Ukraine have been heartbreaking with prayers sent up from Black people throughout the globe but what about our people, our students, our mothers with children. As you reject them from exiting your country and giving privilege to your European own, I see my people are not only impacted by war but the sy...

We was homeless for almost a year; a year without a place to call our own. Me and Bae grinding; not much to laugh about. Yet each lousy hotel had one thing in common and that was “Wild n Out”. Yes Cable!!! You see I am not much of a TV watcher but my dude knew what he liked and marathon after marathon go...

“ I am willing to disagree but I am not willing to hate. On the anniversary of the Charleston Church Murders your rhetoric is sad but held by many. I will pray for you. I will not call you names. I will even be responsive to a certain point because our interaction exposes who you are. Why can't you see if it was up to the confederacy I would still ...

Fear, is what I notice most when speaking to another King. Wether it be the fear of failing or the fear of consequence for a mistake or misstep, it's all the same because it only serves to prevent you from achieving greatness. Through conversation as well as my own experience I've come to understand where these fears derived from. Fear has never be...

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 ...

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, ...

One of the many Queens of Charlotte was Dorothy Counts. She was “Ford Tough”, as she was one of the pioneers to integrate Charlotte Mecklenburg Public School System in 1957. Pictures captured her poise, fearlessness and bravery as she entered Harry Harding High School to mobs of white supremacist, young and old. Under the pass...

Black Folks are winning. I know it can be a hard phrase to say but don’t turn your back on it. We can not curse our Black children with conditions that we have allowed. We must speak life into them. I’m not telling them they are playing for a losing team just because the victories seem far and few.&...
