Even non sports fans have heard of athletes like Terrell Owens (T.O.), “Pacman” Jones, Mike Tyson, O. J. Simpson or Ben Roethlisberger—for all the wrong reasons. But, I guarantee that most people have never heard of Myron Rolle.

If humanity is to be saved from that self-destruction, there has to be a better distribution of the wealth and technology available on the planet. Less luxury and less squander in a few countries so that there is less poverty and less hunger on a large part of the Earth." (Applause)

Suspected Bombers
Thesuicide bomber is the phenomena of the times. He (and she) is outsideWestern psychology, and not totally within Eastern psychology, althoughEastern spirituality places the bomber within Islamic martyrdom,granting him instant paradise for resisting oppression. But when weconsider the aspect of killing innocent people in his martyrdom, itbecomes most difficult to comprehend, unless we conclude there are nolonger innocents in the global struggle for just
Kwabena Akurang-Parry:
LET me state some caveats that my effort at interrogating the conclusions of Professor Henry Louis Gates does not mitigate the marginality and chattel nature that reconfigured the lived-experiences of enslaved Africans worldwide, nor does it exonerate slave-holding societies in Africa as well as some African states’ participation in the Atlantic slave trade. Second, I do understand Gates to mean that the blame for the Atlantic slave trade should be debited to both Africans
Parable of Pain
We sometimes look upon people from the outside only, never imagining what might be going on inside them, in the deep structure of their psyche, the pain and unresolved grief that may be lurking there, sometimes about to explode. We look at a woman and say to ourselves or to someone else how fine she is. She so fine I wish she was mine, but little do we know Miss Fine is a monster, a beast who has suffered much trauma in her life.
And it may not only be mental trauma but physical

MY THOUGHTS
Perhaps, the above words of Whoopie Goldberg, came as no surprise to many viewers watching late night television, and admittedly i watched, and shook my head.
My oldest grandson aged 19 blurted out and i quote..dayum, what a stupid hata!!
As we and friends continued to watch, he went on to say a few more unsavory things to which i w
Parable ofMalcolm's Killer
He was rewarded for his dastardlycrime by a dastardly society universally known for murder and mayhem.Why wouldn't he be rewarded with his freedom after killing one ofAmerica's most dangerous men, simply because he spoke the truth, the lowdown dirty truth about America, her dirty linen, her funky drawers, herbloody cum filled panties. Yes, Malcolm told it all, in the traditionof David Walker, Henry Highland Garnett, Garvey, DuBois, and of courseMalcolm's teacher, Elija

As a young lady during the sixties, while barely able to speak english (my choice to use a small e) LOL ,i overstood (my choice to use the small letter i) that the color of my skin had the AUDACITY" to crush my HOPE" and cause them to disintegrate, and crash into oblivion.

My position on illegal immigration is very public—I DO NOT SUPPORT AMNESTY under any circumstances. So, with the new illegal immigration bill signed into law in Arizona and the volume of phone calls seeking my opinion, I have decided to share my thoughts on this issue.
