As a woman from Cuba and A NON

As a non Latina/Hispanic Spanish speaking sistah from Cuba to be exact, i am clear concerning the relentless efforts by the former major society to annihilate, eradicate, stilfle, suffocate, smother and literally murder and remove from the face of the earth " THE AFRICAN MAN".

While traveling recently to Atlanta, as a ProBono Atty and supporter of the Innocense Project, while in my hotel, i began to re-read the book "Yoruga" by Marimba Ani. While reading, I began to

The Chicago Tribune recently had a forum hosted by WVON's Cliff Kelley, and there were no major headlines in the days after the forum, like many others that have put any kind of dent in the continued rise in Chicago Violence. Is one reason that major media seems to make more of the headlines of calling in the National Guard than they do to local community groups who have identified solutions "on the ground" that could truly help stop the rise in Chicago violence, shootings, and killings. It's no

How does a simple deployment of new police officers address the state of mind, social conscioussness, lack of respect of law enforcement, and the ongoing street battles over desperate economic conditionns that drive the vionece, plan to stop it ? ?

MEMO: KILLING THE ‘LEADERLESS’ LIE

BY MIKE RAMEY

While the Depression-that-no-one-wants-to-admit-we-are-in continues, the end of the school year is rapidly approaching.
