Baltimore State Attorney General, Marilyn Mosby, is a hero. She deserves our praise for her heroic fight for justice for Freddie Gray. But alas, she is not getting the credit for so brave a fight. From the outset loud, vociferous, and influential critics attacked her mercilessly for prosecuting the killer cops. She fully understood that one does not just capitulate to injustice, but one fights it, win or lose. Baltimore city should be proud to have an Attorney General that will fight the system

Thomas Jefferson -- country will never honestly address today's racial woes while ignoring the nation's history.By Ezrah Aharone ~
As America celebrated 240-years of "democracy" on July 4, 2016, the longstanding tradition of hero-worshiping Thomas Jefferson continued. Meanwhile, as the slaughter of Black people continues in parallel tradition, America tends to disassociate the 18th-century racism and violence of its founders from 21st-century racism and violence of its followers.

Collywood TV is an unusual bridge between Africa and the wider diaspora of African descent in North America and the Caribbean. Russell Southwood spoke to its founder Junior Hart about how the platform developed and how he can work with African film and TV producers.
Collywoodtv.com (C as in Caribbean) was founded by film-maker Junior Hart in 2008 but he admits that “When I formulated the idea of a streaming platform the Internet was very slow. I had to build up content until the Internet picked
NB Commentary: This country dedicates monuments, federal buildings, streets, towns, libraries, roads and holidays to its war criminals, slave holders, pedophiles, drug addicts, corporate moguls and mafia connected king pins. It says a lot about how it protects its criminals, honors them and gives them high office in the land.
Small wonder that they would select someone like Bill Clinton for the presidency and quite possibly, his wife as well. I used to always wonder about that. It seems strange t
I had this dream, July 19, 2016 at around 4 AM. I got up and wrote it all out. I didn't want to forget a single part of it. It was truly surreal. I typically title my dreams so I am calling this one........He Survived.

His body was so stiff and completely covered with blood. His brown shirt and khaki pants were a mess. I had never seen anything like it. They just left his body there, didn't even bothered to contact his family so that he could have a proper

When it comes to Donald Trump supporters, it’s become pretty clear what you’re gonna get. They’re either people too dumb to tie their own shoelaces, or they’re jerks who embrace racism, misogyny, and the need to prove their manhood.
Enter Scott Baio. SOURCE
Baio sat down with Tamron Hall on her MSNBC show while at the Republican National Convention. Hall pressured him to answer why he would post a photo on Twitter of Hillary Clinton in front of the word “c*n

Let’s go to the movies
See the story of Jesse Owens
A true champion
Let’s see Jesse overcome
Depressing poverty
Racial humiliation
The malevolent hate-filled Adolf Hitler
And his thousands of saluting fans
Right in their Berlin backyard
To become champion
A champion of the world!
A true story
An exciting story
An inspiring story
A story that every black child
Should see!
“I want to see Kung Fu Panda instead
Besides, Kung Fu Panda can run faster than Jesse Owens”

By John GleissnerJustice is sought with regard to individual slayings of African Americans, most recently Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. When President Obama mentions those particular slayings, he at the same time mentions systemic disparate treatment of African Americans in the American legal system. Plenty of statistics show police stops, arrests, prosecutions, sentencing and incarceration are pretty tough on African Americans. What's not clear is whether this is due to systemic racis
"It's a wonder we all haven't all gone stark raving mad!"--James Baldwin, 1968 interview with Marvin X
"Homicide and suicide are two sides of the same coin!"--Dr. Nathan Hare
Suicide among North American Africans is a communal affair, or shall we say societal affair since we live in a hostile environment that invites us to suicide by the very nature of our existence that is marginalized at best, but it is our psycho-social condition that leaves us no way out of suicide on so many levels. The ve
Newark, NJ Mayor Ras Baraka and Marvin X
When I was in Newark, New Jersey for the last rites of my friend and comrade, poet/activist Amiri Baraka, his son Ras then a city councilman but was running for mayor. He told me then, "Marvin we got Black brothers on the police force with legal guns who back us, i.e., the community." And I observed positive police/community relations. It is a different feeling when you know the police are on your side. As a matter of fact, during the time of the funer
