Africans! Beware the Saviors of Libya

         At this very moment several Western powers and their Arabs lackeys have started an attack on one of the most progressive minded governments in Africa. We must be clear that the attack on Libya is an attack on Africa. One of the reasons that the French, the United States, and Britain could not get an agreement from the Africans Union to bomb Libya is because the political intelligence of African leaders has grown tremendously since the crises in Sudan, Cote d’Ivoire, Tunisia, and Egypt.

WHY LIBYA?

At the onset of America’s invasion of Afghanistan, former US vice President Dick Cheney was quoted as saying the Third World War has already began. Many at that time felt it was the usual American political talk but events subsequently have proved that the US agenda is to remove any national leader who is not ready to handover his natural resources to the Americans.

A cursory look at the list of countries that have either been invaded or puppets placed in power to do the American will is getting

For those of you who know me, you know that I have been an avid supporter of affordable housing for quite some time -- this stems from both personal challenges of obtaining an affordable home of my own, coupled with the fact that it is ludicrous and inhumane, and downright insipid to claim to be the leader of the free world, and one of the richest nations in the world, and not make it possible for those who made that wealth a possibility to have decent place to live.

COMING HOME: REVELATIONS FROM FORMER PRISONERS
by Sis. Marpessa Kupendua

"I WANT TO LIVE EVERY DAY, because I'm afraid I might lose it all again!" - Former DOC No. A27963

Transitioning from a prisoner number to an adult person expected to take on adult responsibilities can be overwhelming for many ex-inmates, particularly those who were incarcerated for long periods of time.  The prison industry is flourishing because America is locking up more people than any country in the entire world (2 millio

Once again Black Democrats have been dissed by the Democratic leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives; and once again there was absolutely no price to pay.

 

When will Blacks finally, in the immortal words of civil rights pioneer, Fannie Lou Hamer, get “sick and tired of being sick and tired?”  Democrats continue to treat Blacks like second class citizens because no one fears any retaliation or any consequence for how they treat Blacks. 

 

Even the first Black

Hymn to the Sun

Homage to thee, O Ra, at thy tremendous rising!
Thou risest! Thou shinest! the heavens are rolled aside!
Thou art the King of Gods, thou art the All-comprising,
From thee we come, in thee are deified.

Thy priests go forth at dawn; they wash their hearts with laughter;
Divine winds move in music across thy golden strings.

NATO and No-Fly-Zone ~


I can’t believe it. The Arab Union is asking NATO to impose a no-fly-zone to prevent Kadaffi from putting down  the armed rebellion against him. Where was such a request to impose a no-fly-zone on Israel when it was bombing innocent people in schools and hospitals in Gaza? How about a no-fly-zone over Afghanistan and Pakistan to prevent drones from killing innocent civilians?

Besides, what is NATO and what authority do they have? NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organisati

  Ninety-eight years ago, today, on March 10, 1913, Harriet Tubman made her transition.  Today, we recognize February 21, 1965 as the date of the assassination of Malcolm X in Harlem and, on April 4, 1968, we recognize the assassination of Dr. Martin L. King, Jr in Memphis but no one will mention the date of Harriet Tubman's death.
 
 If there had been no Harriet Tubman, there would have been no Malcolm X nor a Dr. King. This is an example of genderphobia which is roo

                When I taught in Georgia, several years ago, I was repeatedly impressed by its many folk sayings.  Phrases like “butter my biscuits”, “cuter than a speckled dog in a red wagon”, “rode hard and put up wet”  and “above your raisin” peppered the conversations in bars and barbershops, town hall meetings and corner store gatherings.  Among all of the sayings that I recollect –few had the staying power of “It’s a poor dog that won’t wag its own tail.”  I must admit, upon first hearing
