Remembering Malcolm
You know, sometimes I think the masses of people of color have lost their collective minds! Upon going to your local grocery store, taking a stroll down the street, or hell just leaving the house, you can see Negroes with Barack Obama paraphernalia. Now this shouldn’t be surprising being that the majority of people of [...]
America=Freedom, And 2+2=5!
Ok, I’m back at it again! Ikonoklast! Yes, I shall continue to disabuse the masses with the same effort that Obama makes Imperialism look appealing. Let me rewind before I start to go on one of my famous diatribes you have grown to love me for; what prompted this post was a polemic I was [...]
The Futility of Professional Sports!

ALWAYS BET ON BLACK!
Black Is Back and we demand Social Justice, Peace and Reparations The election of Barack Obama as U.S. president has not ended the suffering of our people or U.S. injustices around the world.

The Weapon of Theory
By Amilcar Cabral If any of us came to Cuba with doubts in our mind about the solidity, strength, maturity and vitality of the Cuban Revolution, these doubts have been removed by what we have been able to see.
