THE CRUX OF IT: NATIVE LIVES MATTER Renee Davis was at her home on Muckleshoot tribal lands when Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched there for a “wellness check.” The 23-year-old was 5 months pregnant and with two of her three children in Washington state at the time, suffering from depression. It […]
THE CRUX OF IT: The history of target practice continues. A sign established as a memorial to the life of Emmit Till has been desecrated in Money, Mississippi. Till was a 14 year old boy that was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered by cowardly white racist adults in 1955. J.W. Milam […]
THE CRUX OF IT: This is the undeniable truth of this country.
THE CRUX OF IT: AN EPIC TAKE DOWN!
THE CRUX OF IT: They won’t even get it… What are the chances that these truths will resonate and realization will set in?
THE CRUX OF IT: Someone took the time to conceive, film, edit, and broadcast racist stupidity and then call it news. So, I want to understand this- Fox is a news network right? A recently broadcast piece, introduced by O’Reilly, cast further doubts on the legitimacy of that claim. Watch below: […]
THE CRUX OF IT: You’re not paranoid if they’re actually watching you. Reuters’s Joseph Menn reported that Yahoo assisted with a wire-tap service and chose to comply with governmental classified “directive” to build “a custom software program to search all of its customers’ incoming emails for specific information to be provided by U.S. intelligence […]
THE CRUX OF IT: Intentions matter and the purpose is to maintain the status quo. In the past, black men would be called “boy” and they would be forced to defend themselves by saying “I am a man.” Invariably, white men would respond saying “Well so am I, I don’t make a […]
THE CRUX OF IT: A Planned attack. The general belief is that Drumpf will have a disastrous effect on the country should he win. Although that is true, I also believe that is an incomplete analysis. Something to consider: The true goal of the Orange Simeon Super villain isn’t to gain the […]
THE CRUX OF IT: The point was missed, monumentally, yet again. Rep. Robert Pittenger (R.- N.C.) had some very polarizing things to say recently after protests erupted in North Carolina. At first listen, the remarks seem overtly bigoted – and to some degree they are. But, even IF given the benefit […]
THE CRUX OF IT: If they did truly matter, would they be taken so quickly. This will be brief. Ahmad Khan Rahami was suspected of a terrorist crime, pursued and, and captured alive. Terence Crutcher was an unarmed man stranded with car trouble and […]
THE CRUX OF IT: Freedom that can’t be criticized is misnamed. The right of freedom of speech, peaceable assembly, and government redress is not encouraged when the oppression of certain groups is in question. The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law […]
THE CRUX OF IT: The fight continues as it has for so long. Imagine being a people that had no need to protest or fight for or against any particular thing… What a privilege that would be…
THE CRUX OF IT: It’s a “Power” thing and a “Blue” thing as much as anything. The primary goal of the law is too often the assertion of power and control rather than helpfulness. Establishing position and dominance takes the place of serving. That stems, in fact, from weakness and insecurity. Everything established […]
THE CRUX OF IT: Veiled ignorance in the form of forced assimilation. Students at the Pretoria High School for Girls in South Africa came together to protest the racism that they claim to have endured throughout the school year. That discrimination was allegedly directed at them from their white teachers. 200 students, led […]
