By Esene MatthiasGlobalization has both positive and negative sides (see J. Bayo Adekanye; 2003). But whether globalization has become a moral indicator in a social framework does not change the fact that it is an inevitable reality precipitated by the wave and tides of human civilization, anchored on science and technology.

The following is a letter from 21st Century Wilberforce Initiative:
Dear Mr. President: We write with great urgency regarding the dire crisis continuing to unfold in northeastern and central Nigeria, much of it as the direct result of Boko Haram. Just yesterday, in the Washington Post, Kevin Sieff noted, "Thousands of Boko Haram victims are on the verge of starvation in northeastern Nigeria." Six people, on average, are dying every day from malnutrition. According to Medicins Sans Frontieres, "o

Muhammad Ali, Rise In Power, June 3, 2016
NB Commentary: The mystique around this man and his history goes far back for those of us who experienced his rise and unfortunate fall in the boxing world. As a former member of the Nation Of Islam, I remember this man as a hero, a warrior, an artist and a poet. Personally, boxing to me is a brutal sport, one that boggles my mind that anyone would want to step into a ring and beat on another human being. As a sport, it says a lot about who we are as huma

Growing up in the 50’s and 60’s, all I wanted was to be
accepted for who I was – glasses and all, and look like my best girlfriend Susan. What I later learned is that it wouldn’t have mattered what I looked like, because most kids wanted to look like or be someone else.
While most of my friends had strict parents, I didn’t have any close friends (that I knew of) whose parents were verbally (or physically) cruel. I say that because as a kid we had parental permission to visit our close friends an

“…the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people,

Their enemies also oppressed them,
and they were brought into subjection under their hand.”

By Anselm AnyohaFour years ago I was unwavering in my intention to write about President Barack Obama. To show how his height, color, skills, emotions and so forth are a result of his mixed race: white mother and black father.
Find out about him first, my procrastinating brain advised. I agreed and read his book, Dreams From my Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, written in 2003. Three months ago I went over it again.
The book begins with how, at age twenty-one, Obama received a call fro
By Norma HoltOne has to know how the magic of words kicks in when religious officials say them. They can drop hammer blows on the vulnerable and compel the brain-washed victims of their methods to do their bidding. The message sinks home when one sees the effect of it through the practices of others, such as the black magic of Africa, which for all intents and purposes varies little from that of western style religions, particularly those of the Catholic Church.

As we say goodbye to our beloved brother Muhammad Ali, I submit the following notes on the most recognized man on the planet earth, the man who made the transition from Toby to Kunta Kinte or in his own right or rite, made the revolutionary transformation from a man of Clay (dirt) to Muhammad Ali, (Arabic: Ali:one who is most high; Muhammad: one who is worthy of much praise).
