J.C. Phillips – I am fascinated that the same people who have been able to find a Constitutional right to government control of education, healthcare, and the energy industry are unable to divine from that same document any rational basis for the government to prevent a mosque from being built on Ground Zero. Of course, […]

Expect A Low Turnout
The Gantt Report – Are Black people insignificant to you? Well, to most political candidates, African Americans are the voters that no one seeks to court or influence. It’s true.

What constitutes a black leader?
by Chuck Hobbs, Esq. – You may have missed it, but the July 25th edition of Newsweek has Al Sharpton on its cover and in a four page feature article on his “reinvention” from a much maligned fringe to a mainstream “black” political leader.

By Lucius Gantt – Now is the time for all Black males to come to the aide of their families and their communities. Now, more than ever, it is crucial for Black men to come together, to stand up and to speak out about the issues that impact our lives and the lives of our […]
