Yesterday, a letter was leaked to the media in Nigeria from former President Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo to current President Goodluck Jonathan, regarding Obasanjo’s latest indignation at Jonathan’s style of governance, albeit a self-serving vitriolic hocus-pocus of indignation.  But some Nigerians are taking Obasanjo’s letter seriously.  But for most Nigerians, nothing Obasanjo says or writes are ever going to change their minds about this tyrannical, corrupt, duplicitous, arrogant, vindictive chame

New York – Last Wednesday, New York State Senator Liz Krueger join fellow elected officials and leading advocates on drug policy and criminal justice reform to announce her introduction of the New York State Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA) at a press conference on the steps of New York City Hall.  The bill would end the criminalization of adults 18 years and older who possess up to two ounces of marijuana and would create a regulatory system allowing for the retail sale of marijuana

Is it just me? How is it that having a European looking man, with blonde hair and blue eyes, from the middle east elevated to the status of God, is NOT promoting white supremacy?

For the next 30 days folks will be peppering their house, lawns, schools and churches and every where else with the image of a "white" child in a manger purported to be GOD incarnate. A so-called Christmas celebration that really is a cloak for white supremacy.

Think about it, from now on it will be quite alright for Jesu

It’s time to stop the war on the poor in Chicago.  We hear the talk all over the inner city.  Poor people want to leave the city because they feel it is unsafe and un-affordable.  It does not take sophisticated analysis to see the linkages between the poverty rate and violence in certain neighborhoods.  Between 2000 and 2010, Chicago lost 200,000 residents.  One-hundred eighty thousand of those were African American. 

On December 5, 2013, Nelson Mandela died at the age of 95. In the coming period, revcom.us/Revolution will have more reporting and analysis of the significance of the struggle against the brutal racist apartheid regime in South Africa with which Mandela was so closely associated, Mandela's role in that, and the nature of South Africa today. But at this moment, the following are five points of orientation:

~ By the Emmett Till Legacy Foundation ~ Our hearts are saddened by the passing of a giant of a man.... Nelson Mandela, who was a man of remarkable grace, intelligence, courage and strength. Our prayers are with his family and the beautiful people of South Africa. The grace and dignity in which he fought for freedom, democracy,  One man One Vote, economic parity and equality for his people and country inspired the entire world and us deeply. We will forever remember his legacy and His life's jou

In no uncertain terms, members of the Project 21 black leadership network are calling out many self-appointed black leaders, activists and journalists for thus far being unwilling to directly address the senseless "knockout game" violence terrorizing innocent Americans. Project 21 members are also thanking those others who are courageously speaking out against the unacceptable mayhem.

"The members of the racial grievance industry who've attempted to sanitize rather than denounce this chaotic beha

~ By H. Lewis Smith ~ Over the past year or so, many events have been occurring in the Black Community at the hand of the Black Community that continues to bring continual shame and degradation to the honorable memories, sacred struggle and sacrifice of African-American ascendants. Some may argue against it, but these acts continue to adversely affect the growth, development, and progression of the Black community, on a whole, to this very day. For instance, in November 2013, former NBA greats C

When the Most High CREATOR GOD Commands us to do something, we do it, and we ask no questions.  Noah was obedient when GOD told him to build an Ark and take animals inside with him.  And he certainly didn’t ask GOD why HE was going to destroy the wicked, either.  Believe me, in that Noah was a Righteous man, he probably wanted to ask the CREATOR what took HIM so long.  Forgive me; I kindda went off on a tangent, except that it is wise to observe the days Commanded of GOD.

Anyway, my dear, dear, f

I am not Catholic, but long live Pope Francis. Alleluia! Alleluia! I think he has been reading my book. Did you read about his recent statements. Check  out this report from News Americas:

His strong condemnation of income inequality and free markets shows that a lot has changed since the cold war.

Pope Francis is once again shaking things up in the Catholic Church. On Tuesday, he issued his first “apostolic exhortation,” declaring a new enemy for the Catholic Church: modern capitalism. “Some peop

The extinct factional “nPDP” says they are amused by the recommendation by the Disciplinary Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the expulsion of the party’s National Secretary, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, along the former National Chairman of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP), Alhaji Abubakar Kawu Baraje, and its Deputy National Chairman, Dr. Sam Sam Jaja, for alleged anti-party activities.
