For months politicians in Memphis and Nashville have bombarded the Memphis City School system with negative attacks. They have passed laws with race as their number reason for doing so; along with their ideas that African-American city school students would pull down the grade value of Shelby County schools and increase violence to boot; that Memphis […]

This is a real and interesting topic; when I posted several days ago, “If there is a devil then, he lives in Memphis.” I told the truth.   Almighty God allowed me to discover the devil and who it is.  I’ll tell you its identity at a later day and time but now, let’s talk about […]

The waters of Loosahatchie River have over flooded its blanks creating what seem to be a small lake at Thomas and N. Watkins, 38127.  This area has historically flood after heavy rains but not to this level. Most of the homes to the west of Thomas are mobile homes in trailer parks.  They take a direct hit […]

Nabil Bayakly, chairman of Muslims in Memphis, said, “Both of them are good friends of mine, and I know how mild-mannered they are. I think the pilot has been really obstinate.” “They are imams,” Bayakly said. “They are religious figures. They usually wear the traditional Muslim gowns and head covers. Just like what the pope would […]

The American people respect all religious beliefs therefore, under the tenets of Al-Islam and its Sharia, natural law; an autopsy isn’t to be performed on a Muslim’s body and it must be buried immediately.  Osama Bin Ladin was found guilty by congress, our administrative, Presidential, institution, and public opinion; his punishment was death.  He had […]

I’m posing to you the most important questions that you have ever answered.  This question is a serious attempt to cause deep thinking.  Your answer would lay a foundation for more serious debate today and for years to come.  This question would also create a wave of other questions from people who would be trying […]

My God; Where is Your Liberty for African American Males?

Why do African-Americans put their children away in jails, thinking they’ll obey after they’ve served jail time?  Why do whites fight hard to keep their children free?  One child is no better than the next however, African-Americans simply give up on their children lives easier and whites see their children lives as their future.  Every people in […]

Philosopher, Dr. Cornell West, Rejected in Groundless Attacks on President Obama’s Record

I disagree with about 90% of Dr. West’s Al-Jazeera comments.  I suppose that he is highly upset at the President for reasons that might be unspoken and could be personal.  Back in 1994, Charles Boone, Wali Shaheed, Deke Pope and I traveled to Baltimore, Maryland together.  On the way there, we undertook a very interesting subject of discussion.  […]

What’s Liberation? And, is it in fact, Real?

Whenever men and women speak of themselves as free I raise an eyebrow wondering do they really know what they’re talking about.  In most cases they don’t.  Just suppose that everything you’ve been taught about freedom is wrong.  And, suppose that slavery is alive and well.  What would you do?  Would you change your life […]
