Our assignment will move us from one battle to another.  Adversity is inevitable our enemy observes all progress. God will mentor us in warfare. The scriptures says “He trains my hands for battle; he strengthens my arm to draw a bronze bow.” Psalm 18; 34 “Praise the Lord, who is my rock. He trains my hands for war and gives my fingers skill for battle.” Psalm 144:1.

A warrior only uses the weapons that never failed him. David rejects the weapons of other while fighting Goliath.

Africa?  Where did I meet her?  I first heard of her from a real live African when I was in the fourth grade.  Our teacher, Mr. Driskill, thought it would be a learning experience for an African to come and talk to his class.  I attended Toussaint L’Ouverture Elementary and I have to confess that there wasn’t a single painting or representation, or even a story told about Haiti or the Revolution which would create the first independent country of Black people in the western

Independence Day

July 4, 2012                   

Raynard Jackson

As we celebrate Independence Day here in the US, I wonder when the Black community is going to learn the true meaning of this day when it comes to politics.

Independence Day, or Fourth of July, is about freedom to think, be, imagine and to live.  In the U.S., July 4, 1776 was the day we celebrate our freedom from Great Britain.  Even though the adoption of the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 2, 1776, it is celebrated on the 4th.

REMEMBER AFRICA?

Here's a interesting collection of Information that was just given to me, thought I'd share it.

REMEMBER AFRICA?

After Africans liberated themselves for Europe, the America's (north, south and central America's) and the Middle East (wanting to rule themselves). They were cut off from aid - trade, food and technology. While the aid that was giving was handed over to puppet leaders rather then the people. With interest on the aid leaving Africa in crushing debt. The poverty fueled gangs in which non

Hog Made From Cat, Rat & Dog


Hog Made From Cat, Rat & Dog 
By Messenger Elijah Muhammad 
Excerpts taken from How To Eat To Live, Book 2 

"Who wants to eat the combination of these fleshes: cat, rat and dog? This is what the hog is made of -- the dog, cat and rat, and the Bible teaches you that he is from a mouse. Read Isaiah 66:17, 'They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord

The Cautionary Tale of Malt Liquor


A Story without Heroes:
The Cautionary Tale of Malt Liquor
April 30, 2005

The family of American-born beers speaks proudly about two of its children. Ask about Steam Beer or the less gifted but very popular Light Beer, and the photos come out, the stories begin. But speak aloud the name of the other sibling, and the room grows quiet. Dad won't look up from his plate and Mom goes into the kitchen and cries into her apron. How could you mention Malt Liquor?

IT HURT JUST TO THINK

It Hurts Just to Think: Notes from a Native Tongue

excerpts from a student paper
by Jerold White







The discussion went well about Malcolm X today. The whole class participated, but I have never heard so much bullshit in my life. Someone had the nerve to compare Malcolm X to the Ku Klux Klan. I think it is better that I did not comment. If I did, I would have said some terrible things. I just cannot understand how some people can feel that Malcolm X was wrong to hate white people. "Two wrongs don't ma

Good morning. I've had my time of reflection. I've shed tears of grief, again, for the loss of my grandmother. It's time for some reality, deeper truth. I thought I could file her away in the back of my mind. I couldn't. I paid for that. As did my children in the days which followed my momentary giving up. Like any soldier I made a retreat from the battle. But like a gre

WHO"S Liberty

Every 4th of July, we are reminded of how "great" the united states is, beating its chest, if you will, as the elite example of freedom and equality. When one thinks of America, one of the first things that comes to mind is the historic Statue of Liberty. But have we really looked at this monument and asked ourselves what does a white woman dressed in a cloak, holding a tablet in one hand and a torch in the other, have to do with liberty?
