1) Barack Obama stepped to the mic and spoke of the importance of non-violence … for oppressed people. When any representative of the U.S. ruling class preaches non-violence, they mean non-violence for those who might get in the way of their empire. Obama was referring to people who had suffered under Jim Crow segregation and lynch-mob terror. This from the commander-in-chief of the global Amerikkkan empire, who has presided over more than 280 drone missile strikes, maintains a torture chamber p

SHOULD PEOPLE BELIEVE IN AND WORSHIP JC?
Where in the Holy Scriptures is it written in the WORDS of the CREATOR GOD, HIMSELF, that HE shares HIS OMNIPOTENCE with another deity? You cannot find it, and the reason is that it is not there. but rather, it is written throughout the Hebrew Scriptures
Today August 28, 2013 is the 50 anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s 1963 “I have a Dear Speech”. Nobody can deny the concrete progress of African Americans and other people of color, but the terrible legacy of over three hundred years of slavery, nearly one hundred years of separate but equal treatment of African Americans, and nearly sixty years of some progress laced with subtle racism and continued inequities regarding education, access to credit, and the criminal justice system epitomize

Today marks the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington for "jobs, justice, and freedom” where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his iconic “I Have A Dream” speech. Across the country, people are honoring this powerful moment in history and recognizing that although we have made great advances in the struggle for racial justice, the “Dream” has not yet been fulfilled. The Lawyers’ Committee will continue to fight for this “Dream”, but we will need increased resources and support from pe

Proud to have been the chauffeur for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who 50 years ago today led a march on Washington, Spencer Leak, Sr., said if King were alive today he would wonder was his life and death in vain given the “social engineering of our people which has been a train wreck.”

The tea party got it right. Move-on, the unions, the green party, the Sierra Club, anti-war organizations and all the progressive organizations got it wrong. That is why the tea party has become a powerful political force and progressive organizations are struggling to even survive.
The tea party did not stay outside and try to influence the Republican Party. No, they moved in and became the Republican Party. Progressives, on the other hand, left the Democratic Party disillusioned, and then trie

Our drones defy international law with indifference on their killing spree all over the world. The oppression of the Palestinians worsens. Whistleblowers are persecuted relentlessly. The murderer of Trayvon Martin goes free. The Cuban five have been wrongfully jailed now for over 14 years! Everywhere you turn, injustice rears its ugly head.

DID JC DIE FOR OUR SINS?
Clearly, the Christian concept of JC dying for people’s sins if they will believe in him is proved to be a lie. Nowhere in GOD’s Book of the Law (Genesis to Deut.) or in HIS WORD to HIS Prophets is anything written suggesting belief and worship in anything or anyone. A

Those who liken the CREATOR GOD to deities of images and idols are fools who follow their own wicked imaginations. In the Hebrew Scriptures the CREATOR appeared FACE to face only to HIS Servant Moses. To HIS other prophets, HE appeared in visions and never in similitudes, for had he
Fifty years ago, the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom was held. The march featured prominent activists, organizers, politicians and performers and 200,000-300,000 participants calling for greater civil and economic rights for African Americans.
The March, and the movement that made it happen, called into question the paradox of the United States. The strong moral framework we hold on paper to be true has always had gaps - for People of Color, women, LGBT people, poor people.
