[10/27/2014] In the Spring of 2013, my friend and comrade James Simmons approached me and asked me if I would be involved in an effort to hold Mischa Culton, who calls himself General T.A.C.O. (Taking All Capitalsts Out) accountable for alleged crimes against members of his own organization, the Black Riders Liberation Party (BRLP), and others in the Black and Brown community. This was not the first time I had heard about T.A.C.O.'s alleged crimes against Black people; I h

BECAUSE GOD’s WORD AND HIS SALVATION ARE NOT FOUND IN THE CHURCH!

I have so much to share that I really do not know where to begin. Right or wrong, I will start by saying that “Cheryl” did great by posting “Africans and their obsession with other people's religion”. I do not know “Cheryl” and never heard of her, and I don’t yet know what all she believes. Nevertheless, the information she brought forward is right on
Are you like me?
Do you spend money with Afrikans at the beginning of the month and throughout the month and leave whatever crumbs are left for non-essentials that may need to be spent with non-Afrikans (like phone, car, lights, water, rent, mortgage, cable, groceries, taxes, etc)?
Well, as you know, a few months ago a crack team of researchers at Abibitumi Kasa embarked on an ground-breaking and monumental scientific experiment!
The bold hypothesis was that Afrikans who know that they are Afr

AS the spectre of Ebola stalks the world, people everywhere are looking accusingly at the ECOWAS presidents. Like the commandants from whose prison a jailbreak of very dangerous prisoners has just happened, they had better have a damned good explanation of the event or face court martial, etc. The citizens of ECOWAS demand no less. How can these presidents allow such a thing to happen on their watch and disgrace all Africans? Aspersions of all sorts are being cast on us as incompetent to manage
“Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto Mount Carmel,
and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves
four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table. So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.
And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions?
if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him.
And the people answered him not a word. Then said Elijah unto the

Addis Ababa is the capital of Ethiopia and the seat of the African Union.
