I’m going to start this off with a quote from Dr. Divine Pryor. It’s so heavy I didn’t want to leave it to the end of this article:

“For the past seven years, The Center for NU Leadership on Urban Solutions has successfully created opportunities for people entangled in the law to access higher education as a way to transforming their lives. Our attempt to secure a multi-million dollar grant was only an effort to formalize what we have been doing informally over the past seve

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the US Monkey Mind Media

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
and the US Monkey Mind Media


Secretary of State Clinton dropped a bombshell on the US Monkey Mind Media when she declared Al Jazeera News is far superior to the US Monkey Mind Media that can only perpetuate the white supremacy world of make believe. We welcome the Secretary to the real world, a world that transcends the airless room Americans live in, as James Baldwin once said.

Last week, in Pretoria, South Africa, the current and past administrative capital of the country, there was a meeting sponsored by the South African government based on its 2006 mandate from the African Union to hold several conferences in and about the African Diaspora in order to identify what makes the Diaspora tick. This was all related to the AU's 2003 invitation to the African Diaspora to come and join that organization to assist in unifying the Afric

The “Declining Significance” of Black History


In the middle of this year’s Black History Month I was momentarily overcome by a weird feeling. There was a kind of ho hum, mundane, routine, business as usual atmosphere about this year’s commemoration with little passion or intensity.  Maybe it was just me, but I had a sense that Black History Month was/is straying from Carter G. Woodson’s original mission of uti

Chicago-Midwest
Well folks, it looks like a 300% refund and tickets to next year’s Super Bowl-with paid accommodations-is not going to be enough to appease the some 400 individuals who were turned away in Dallas at the big game. The first lawsuits were filed in federal court on Wednesday. It appears the culprit is lack of preparation. The additional seats that were sold were deemed unsafe by the fire marshal due to lack of adequate guard rails. The second company-who took over for the first company that left Je

America's White Revolution
Is America in the birth pains of revolution, of joining the struggle of people around the world for social and economic justice? What is the end game of the Tea Party goers and the unions struggling for their definition of social economic democracy? Will there inevitably be a clash between the unionists and workers on the Left and the Tea Party Constitutionalists on the Right? Or will they merge into the American Whit

India is one of the most popular destinations for so many people who love picturesque valleys, historical monuments, majestic palaces, spirituality, mysticism, diversity and exotic locations. It has so many things to offer to the discerning visitor. India is a huge country and exploring the entire country seems to be an impossible task in one single trip. One cannot even cover one state in a single trip. It might take months to explore this beautiful country. Each state is unique and it has its

The Root Of The Problem Is “The Root”

March 3, 2011 

  

  

Raynard Jackson

 

In agriculture, if the root of the plant goes bad, so goes the rest of the plant.  Above the ground, the plant may be very beautiful, but internally it is dying.

 

This reminds me of “The Root” online magazine (www.theroot.com).  According to their website:  “The Root is a daily online magazine that provides thought-provoking commentary on today's news from a variety of black perspectives.”  They are owned and published by the Washington Post Newsweek Interactive.

RUTH Minista Paul Scott ~
 
March 3, 1991. What started off as just another case of a brotha gettin' beat
down by the Po Po, would set off a chain of events that would forever change
the socio-political dynamics of America, especially for the Hip Hop
generation.
 
Although, they beating of Rodney King by four Los Angeles police officers
happened 20 years ago, the shock waves from the event are still being felt
today. To grasp the gravity of the situation one has to look at it in
historical terms.

The American Beast in the Middle East

When we examine the deep structure of events in North Africa and the Middle East, we must come to understand that America is the primary reason the oppressive regimes in Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Oman have continued their wickedness for decades. It is billions in America military aid that has gone to stem internal threats rather than external. Many of these nations have participated in American sta

Well now that I've recouped from one of the busiest weekends of Black History Month, I have finally gathered up the strength and energy to write this article.

The MEC Coalition took its concerns to Albany last weekend, during the 40th Annual Black and Puerto Rican and Asian Legislative Caucus and placed it squarely on the plates of the elected officials.

Armed with petitions, flyers, parent, student and educator support, they spoke individual

Irony of BOTTOM UP CHANGE!

 

By Sapphire Mann Ahmed, M. D., MPH

February 26, 2011

 

 

Obama’s politically manufactured bottom up change ‘rhetoric’ has ricocheted back on to the USA imperial greedy capitalist society and its zionist colony. It is a royal irony that peoples of Africa and its Arab Peninsula, rather than the American bottom classes, are realizing Mr. Obama's ‘bottom up change’ seriously.

 

 

Truly, our brother President Obama, should receive the Middle-Eastern Nobel Bottom Up Change Prize. The Egyptians and s
