Edrea Davis – Pompous, self-serving, Donald Trump is so stuck on himself and wound up in his own world he probably doesn’t realize that some negative media attention won’t help his brand. I have video from several high-profile people who reject Trump’s latest antics. I don’t know if Donald Trump is actually a racist since [...]

It’s a sad day in America. Donald Trump’s racist and hateful remarks demonstrate that racism is alive and well in America. He also brought to the forefront what many educated, hard-working people of color go through every day. We are constantly expected to prove that we are worthy of our accomplishments. Obviously Donald Trump thinks [...]

I’m one of those people who thinks government is doing a little too much intruding in our lives. Too much regulation keeps government workers employed but doesn’t do much else. This Florida bill will prohibit students from wearing clothing that exposes their butt. What in the world? Some schools require uniforms and others have very [...]

I normally don’t comment on the commentaries on DogonVillage.com, but I could not resist this one. It illustrates the fact that the views of the columnists on DogonVillage.com are that of the writer and not necessarily the views of the editors. This post is in response to DogonVillage.com columnist, Raynard Jackson’s recent piece on DogonVillage.com [...]

I don’t know about White people being “oppressed,” but I would say “misunderstood.” I think it’s a great idea to have courses in White Studies because White people have gone through some dramatic changes over the years. They’ve gone from being in favor to out of favor. There are 25-year-old White people that could never [...]

This is absolutely ridiculous. It’s getting harder these days to avoid getting caught up in the criminal justice system. I hope people get how extreme the US has gotten with locking non-violent offenders. Heck, How can putting your children in a better school be criminal? President Obama just spoke about the need for parents to [...]

This is a great article at Alternet.org. I ask a similar question daily – Can we get any dumber? Dumb is like a disease these days. When people with limited knowledge like Sarah Palin are allowed to run for vice president of the United States of America it sends a message to young people that [...]

All I can say is GO CHARLIE! Why is President Obama weighing in on Congressman Rangel’s situation? More importantly, who is President Obama to say that someone should give up and leave with their dignity? What happened to innocent until proven guilty? The Obama administration should have learned something from the Shirley Sherrod debacle, or [...]

I don’t really believe in welfare the way it’s set up now. I think there should be something in place that provides temporary help for those in need, but able bodied individuals should do some type of work to receive the money. That said, this suggestion made by a Republican candidate for governor in New [...]

According to a report compiled by the Pew Internet and American Life Project, 66 percent of Americans said they had broadband access [...]
