In my book, "Leave The Rat Race To The Rats, I deal extensively with racism from a very unique perspective. I blame racism on what Occupy Wall Street refer to as the 1%, the richest one per cent of America who dominate American politics. Instead of calling them the 1%, I refer to them as American Supremacists. Here is an excerpt on racism from my book:

"Racism

Blacks have been and continue to be the victims of racism in America. It is worst in the ghetto.  They have suffered at the hands of whites

We have a solemn duty to prevent the most disastrous crisis America has ever faced.. I speak of the re-election of Donald Trump. So, a few days ago, I could not believe my ears. I was listening to my favorite radio station, the progressive WPFW 89.3 in Washington DC.  I heard criticism of the Democratic presidential nominees, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.  

Any criticism of the Biden-Harris ticket is helping Trump. Now the conservative media and the rest of the Trump base is heaping criticism on

…IMC can’t pay under pressure because figure rose from $1.9m to $7m

The stories making the rounds, that the Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) cannot pay their Foreign Scholarship students due to the absence of an Executive Director of Finance and Administration (EDFA), following the death of Mr. Etang Ibanga, the former EDFA has been discovered to not have emanated from the NDDC.

This discovery was made by the Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative,

Our Democracy is over. We now have a dictatorship. Trump has prevailed. With his accomplices in the congress and the senate, he has immobilized these two branches and now rules by executive decrees.

The Republicans and Democrats failed to come up with a compromise covid 19 relief plan to prevent severe financial consequences for huge sections of the population. So, Trump seizes the opportunity to impose his plan by executive order.

 Previously the federal government paid individuals $600 per week

LESSONS FROM MY FATHER

            I once knew a young man that I hired to take care of my yardwork.  I thought him dependable, courteous, and receptive to teaching.  I invested time in him, and it worked out well for a season.  However, the season ended when he discovered girls.  Soon, his focus weakened, and his ability to keep his word suffered.  I had warned him in advance that his ‘sweetheart’ was going to turn his head.  I know that his real father had probably told him the same thing.  S

.......Alleges desperation to scuttle the Forensic Audit, and renewal of media attacks on IMC 

The Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) says its attention has been drawn to the above subject of a newspaper report credited to the Senate Ad-Hoc Committee which recently investigated the alleged financial malfeasance in NDDC. 

The Ad-hoc Committee which had Senator Olubunmi Adetunmbi, All Progressives Congress, APC, Ekiti North as Chairman, had Senato

First, I list the words “Black and African” in this commentary with a slash because I view these words to be interchangeable. I believe that all Black people are some type of African people, given the evidence, so I don’t debate it.  Next, I am not a professional writer, nor do I plan to be.  There’s already enough Black scholars, writers, professional speakers, etc. What we need are more doers, more problem solvers, more sound-minded strategic leaders.  I try to be one of the Black folks menti

Many are misled into thinking that Donald Trump has captured just a faction of the Republican Party. In reality, he is the champion of the entire Republican Party that fulfills their real views. In other words, the Republican Party has always espoused those Trump views, but held them undercover because they were so repulsive. At last they have found a leader who can get away with admitting them publicly. Regardless of how odious Trump’s actions, generally every Republican member of the Senate an

The Rivers State All Progressives Congress Caretaker Committee says the party’s attention has been drawn to reactions in the media credited to Hon. Elemchukwu Ogbowu who served as a one - time member of the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Hon. Ogbowu, in his reaction is quoted as saying that his name was included among members of the statutory members who set aside the sole administratorship model that Hon Igo Aguma who obtained leadership through a legal tussle was bent on hoisting on the River

“THE WORLD IS CRUEL”

Rayshard Brooks

Racial inequities and Repression of Blacks are Pervasive

In ALL White Supremacist Nations.

Only Our LIBERTY and INDEPENDENCE

will manifest Genuine FREEDOM for Descendants of Slaves.

LET US BE WISER THAN OUR CAPTORS, OR WE WILL BE FOREVER SUBJECT TO THEM! DEMAND THAT ALL OUR RIGHTS AND REQUESTS BE ADDRESSED AND ALL OUR VOICES BE HEARD!  

Brooks words are so true, but they leave out all the disparities, suffering, and affliction of Blacks who are held

Joe Biden is catching unwarranted criticism for saying that “, A black who voted for Trump is not a black”. Thank you, Biden! I could not say it better myself. As a matter of fact , a black who criticizes that statement is not a black too. I think it is an excellent metaphor.

Let’s face it:

• A Jew that would vote for Hitler is not a Jew.
• A Latino who would vote for Trump is not a Latino.
• A Mexican-American who would vote for Trump is not a Mexican-American
• A Muslim who would vote for Trump is not a Mu

I’m wise to Trump.  Megalomaniac Trump’s ultimate target is the UN. One of the first things he did when he came to office was to dismantle the Iran treaty. All the other signatories, the United Kingdom, Russia, France, and China—plus Germany) and the European Union did not support Trump’s  action. The sanctions have driven Iran's economy into severe recession, with oil exports largely stopping, major foreign companies pulling out to avoid US penalties and the value of the local currency plummeti

An accountability advocacy group, the Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative has reiterate her surprise at what the group termed “unusual interest” of the National Assembly in the tenure of the Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), as expressed in her last press release. 

According to the group, “Citizens Quest, as an accountability advocacy group, would have ordinarily welcomed t

Now Trump has tried almost everything to stop immigrants from coming here. There was the Muslim ban.  separating immigrant children in ICE detention from their parents, smearing Mexicans as rapists, insulting other Latinex  as criminals and terrorists, describing their places of  origin as “shithole countries”, and of course the wall, the wall, the famous wall. But, he has an even more diabolical scheme underway and the beauty  is that no one is even aware of it. .It is so cleverly disguised t
