Trump’s racism is not limited to America, but is a menace to the world.

Traditionally, Venezuela, like most Latin American countries , have been ruled by white elites, despite the variety of races in the country. The late President  Hugo Chavez disrupted that.  He was the first Venezuelan leader to embrace his Afro-indigenous heritage, His successor Maduro also did not come from white elites, with his indigenous roots. Throughout Latin America, the US has typically sided with the white ruling cl

Blacks in the US,  compared to whites,  have worse education, higher unemployment, lower wages and  life expectancy, inferior housing, healthcare, and so on. Besides, there has been an increase in racism led by the president of the United States of America, Donald Trump. What do these racists want? Using history as a guide, these racists probably  want some or all of the following:

• Continuation of police brutality
• Discrimination in the workplace in hiring and promotions
• Continued voter suppression

At one point, I thought Trump was just an egomaniac. However, as I have come to observe more of his actions, it has become obvious that he is also a  maniac and a megalomaniac. He is stark raving mad! There can be no other explanation. His withholding money from the World Health Organisation in the midst of such a grave COVID-19 pandemic has confirmed this diagnosis.  Is the United Nations next?

I think those close to him were aware of his condition and tried their best to shield this from the p

J.Maurice has a new track out, and it’s a banger. It has heavy auto-tune on the hook, backed up by classic trap style beat. Oh yeah, the song has a clear and distinct message. He’s through doing favors. And we don’t blame him.

I’m sure we can all relate to the concept that J. Maurice is rapping about. The only difference is he’s really good about putting it into words, and even further more, a rhyme pattern.

Have you ever looked out for someone, But when you needed help they just turn the other ch

One of my favorite war flicks is 1949’s “Battleground”. In brief, the film deals with the fictionalized adventures of a segment of the famed 101st Airborne Division during WWII. The 101st suffered great losses and hardships holding a city by the name of Bastogne until help arrived. The film’s climax comes as the surviving members of the unit were finally relieved, and got their orders to retire from the fighting.

As they were marching out, in the distance, they could see a new outfit of fresh tr
