His opinions and deeds and objectives are not in line with the majority of […]
THE CRUX OF IT: THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THEM ARE ASTOUNDING. Now that the terms of office for President Barack Obama are completed, we will be provided with a striking reminder of the degree of dignity, intelligence, temperament, and statesmanship that our 44th President displayed for the world to see. That reminder […]

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 […]
