Michael Steeles bringing the fried chicken and potatoe salad…And this makes me want to join the GOP?

Michael Steele is trying to woo blacks into the GOP joking that he’d bring “fried chicken and potato salad to a GOP cookout for the recruitment of blacks while a gay black blogger would bring the “collard greens”.

This dude is a clown.
And how come every time I go into Bojangles here [...]

Mercy Mercy Me…

Things are going  a wire. All of these deaths of relatively young black American celebrity men . Gerald Levert, Sean Levert, Bernie Mac, MICHAEL JACKSON, now Steve McNair.
Regardless of what Mike wanted, these were all black men. Falling dead either in their prime or in the prime of their careers.  This needs to be addressed [...]

Raleigh Womens Empowerment, or concert…whatever you want to call it

I went to the 15th Annual Woman’s Empowerment event in Raleigh yesterday. I’ve lived here for 8 years  and this is the first time I’ve gone. I went with my wife and two daughters.
I guess the motivation for me going was more related to my older daughter being 17 and about to leave the nest [...]

Starting 2009 off with a bang…

That bang is on MY drum. That’s right. My blog is MY drum. It just took me reading several comments from (what I believe to be)  members of the white race to realize what my blog really is.

Sentinel, I don’t want no trouble…

My post a week or so ago on “What’s Wrong With Blacks” was met with attacks by blacks who blog about the lack of a focus on white acts of racism and their double standards.

What’s Wrong With Black Unity (response)

My post on “What’s Wrong With Blacks” was recently commented on by “brotherpeacemaker”. Basically, he summed up my post as my congering up a vantage point that brothers who are doing less with their lives were looking me up and down because I had on slacks. Additionally, he said that maybe I was the one [...]

Revolution within the Black Community

Those of us who TIRED of black people making excuses for our race need to jump behind Obama and his call for the black community to be more responsible for their own actions. Though this is nothing different then what Bill Cosby has said on numerous occasions in the past.
Case in point. The very house [...]

The Hillary Clinton “I’m sorry 2009″ Black Church Tour

Hillary touring black churches to heal eroded black support makes me cringe. But not for reasons you may think.
Bamboozled attendees of the “black church” just might be foolish enough to accept any sort of apology tour HRC musters. A little payola to the minister behind the scene should facilitate this in most of the cases. [...]
