Jimmy Graham--A True Baller

October 27, 2011

 

Raynard Jackson

 

That’s right, Jimmy Graham!  Most of the public is only recently becoming aware of the story of Jimmy Graham.  I find this very unfortunate, but true.

Jimmy Graham is a tight end for the New Orleans Saints football team.  As of this writing, he is the leading tight end in the N.F.L. in terms of receptions and touchdowns.  But most importantly, he is proving to be a true “baller” in the game of life!

He was born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina.  This 24 yea

While capitalism is upheld by Western-European nations as the paradigm for economic fairness and efficiency, it conversely has a 400-year history of profiteering that traces to shameless enslavement and colonizing of non-European people by the same nations. Today, capitalism's tentacles of debauchery reach beyond the so-called "third world" to now r

— William Blackstone, English jurist

If you followed the Duke lacrosse case and that infamous rape hoax you know very well that a high profile district attorney and the police will sometimes lie in order to obtain a wrongful conviction.

You are also aware that the authorities can and will feed their lies to a legion of media enablers, who will then spin a sensational narrative that can help convict the innocent of a terrib

How? Is the only question: So Black people must work now to avoid becoming the scapegoat. We have abundant history to know how murderous they

It's Hamer Time

October 20, 2011

 

Raynard Jackson

 

Fannie Lou Hamer (pronounced hay-mer) was one of the unsung pillars of the civil rights movement in the U.S.  She was a phenomenal woman—a woman of great determination and great purpose.  She was not one to hold back her feelings, especially when fighting for equality.

 

In 1964 she was elected Vice-Chair of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (MFDP).  Their stated purpose was to challenge Mississippi’s all-white delegation to the Democratic National Conventio

Solution To Corporate Greed Petition

 

 

10-19-11 

Dear Friends, Occupy Wall Street and American Corporations and 1%ers:

 

I just created a petition entitled American Corporations Using Capitalism To Mask Greed: They should voluntarily change their By-Laws to require that 25% of their profits be donated to address social & educational issues.   I, along with Occupy Wall Street, care deeply about this very important issue.  This would be one way for Corporations to show the 99% that they are willing to self correct their greedy behavior.

"Common Sense is Ruining Relationships"

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, it is with great pleasure that today I will be bringing to justice a serial killer that we've all come to know and trust named "Common Sense."  For years common sense has been unconsciously destroying/killing relationships and marriages.  It is common sense that keeps individuals from effectively communicating because they assume that their thoughts are "common," causing them not to explain why they do the things they do, or how they come to the conclusions that
