Welcome to America’s NEW monthly favorite column for Men: THE MANHOOD LINE: LIVE! It’s predecessor, THE MANHOOD LINE was God-breathed, American made and world traveled. We’re gonna stretch the hits even further, as we round the bases. The former column has gone from Rome, Italy to Tokyo, Japan--and points in between.

It is International Women's History Month and GroovaLottos keyboardist and singer reflects on the influence of legendary jazz great, Nina Simone on his performance style.
As the truck and equipment trailer of The GroovaLottos tooled through Dedham after another successful show at the Dedham Square Coffeehouse, the strains of Nina Simone's "Sinner Man" could be heard on the truck stereo. Mwalim turned it up slightly and began to sing along and even started scatting as Simone's rapid-fire, Pentacos
“Questioners are ‘hoteps’ who are too woke to have fun.”
The desire to see a black face in a high place is a legacy of slavery and the century of Jim Crow segregation that followed. The psychological impact of America’s apartheid is enduring, and unlikely to end without true revolutionary change.

People fuss and complain and make long videos warning us about the so-called New World Order. I say, it ain't new!! Anytime a group of people can change the time on the clock and effect the entire world's bio-rhythm, now that's some power. I know that everyone in the "whole world" ain't changing their clocks, but if they don't change, and they have to interact with those who do, they still have to make an adjustment on some level. Now, that's power.

"Get Me Out of Wakanda": Articles and Analysis of Black Panther Movie
It's been at least a week now that the hype over Wakanda has crescendoed. The movie seems to have taken the world by storm, and I do mean the entire world. However, we do know that what is reported is not necessarily what is really happening, all we gotta do is look at the last US presidential election cycle to see that numbers and polls can be flubbed and flipped to fit a narrative. What we can be sure of is that with the a
THE MANHOOD LINE: LIVE! By Mike Ramey.
I’ve been noticing something in a wide variety of TV commercials over the last several years, be they on the main TV networks, on cable, or further into the television universe. It seems that families having sons, has fallen out-of-vogue among the ‘wizards of smart’ on Madison Avenue. Daughters have become the ‘fixture’ among the advertisers…a trend I find very, very disturbing.
Why? I’m glad that you asked. No ‘safe spaces’ from--the TRUTH!
