  Stop-and-frisk has been much in the news in New York City.

Rape of the Black Woman


Know Your Black History: Could a Black Woman Actually Be Considered a Rape Victim

That black men, women, and children were routinely lynched by white men who had no fear of arrest, much less prosecution, well into the 1950s is well known. What is less well known because it is well documented is that black women were routinely raped by white men throughout most of American history. The really sad part of this contemptuous affair is that for much of American history, especially in the South, the ra

Positive Black Men - Show Yourselves

Black Professional MenSometimes it seems like African Americans are in a silent war – the war against the media.  The problem is that most of us don’t even know that the war is raging on; and we are losing.  Many of the breakthroughs on television of positive African American male characters have been reversed, and what once seemed like a leveling of the media playing field has turned into a 500-foot waterslide leading us right down the tubes.

It happened so fast that we may not have even realized it, but gone from TV

“Pervis Principles Volume 1” by Pervis Taylor III
“Wisdom doesn’t come from age but comes from obedience.”
--Pervis Taylor III
Author, Pervis Principles
 
While this mini-book has been out since late 2010, it has two distinct things going for it. First, its size--just right for pocket or backpack. Second, the fact that it has a distinct biblical connection. In the end, the wisdom factor from Pervis Taylor III will keep young people turning the pages for the 30 days worth of character-building inspi

The NAACP and Gay Marriage

3828537044?profile=originalRaynard Jackson ~

   Those who have followed my writings over the years know that I am not very fond of the modern day NAACP. They have strayed very far from their original mission and have become a patsy for the Democratic Party. They are more concerned with having a photo taken at the White House than being the picture of equality and fairness for those with no voice.

The group was founded in 1909 as a civil rights organization. Its charter stated their mission as: “To promote equality of rights
