Before my grandmother was a grandmother she was an aunt. She had older brothers but she was the eldest sister in her family of ten or eleven children. If we’re speaking of titular longevity it would be more correct to call her Aint Bessie. Later on, moving northward and when her sisters had children, there would be variations of Aunt, Auntie, and Ant. But the one which resonates most in my memory is hearing the children of my Aunt Teench (Ernestine had one child named Lawrence) an

Someone has to raise the issues that are hurting Black African American people. We lack leadership at every level of our society, including politics. I'm not interested in leadership that wants to fight or do battle. I want them to solve problems. I will not lower my standards to be a sideline cheerleader every two or four years, who need to be motivate to vote. I'm engaged and demand accountability, transparency and solutions at every level. However, a few of us, who are concerned about our peo

All these thoughts and more are roaming through my mind and running rampant and long, sprinter and marathoner combined. I can’t believe we, his step-father and I, his sister, his brother.
