Willie Lynch came up with the idea years ago. We must separate slaves from one another. We can use age, skin lightness or darkness, gender, position, and any other qualification that would cause slaves to bicker amongst themselves. For the last 200 years we have willingly played this game, judging each other on what we [...]

History In The Making

One of the first rules you learn as a child is if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, It’s a DUCK. So, are you really surprised at the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico or the incompetence behind the clean-up?
Take heed as you read this article and look at [...]

When you think of the ’60’s, what’s the first thing to come to mind? Even though this was the time of Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X, when phrased properly, you get an immediate image of “Hippies” and drugs. Woodstock. War Protest. An era of American History where we lost all sense of common decency [...]

I want to share my thought process with you. I was listening to my Ipod the other day, and Will Smith “Summertime” came on. Especially in early spring, this song makes you feel good. It makes you want to clean out your closet and see what you need to complete your summer look. It makes [...]

Whenever things get tough in my life, I start to think back on the past. I’ve learned there are no new lessons, just lessons learned the hard way and forgotten. Even the most self-reflective person falls victim to apathy. And it is in this moment God hits you with a dose of reality.
He took me [...]

This article is weeks in the making. I’ve actually sat at the computer and started to write four time already, to no avail. I really don’t want to write another race article, yet God has put it on my heart so here we go.
What is Racism? Dictionary Definition- a belief that race is the primary determinant [...]

Holla at ya Girl. I did my very first speech ever Tax Day 2010 down in Roanoke Virginia. There were a lot people there and I was excited to be apart of such a fantastic rally. The Roanoke Tea Party Coordinators and Participants are AWESOME.
And that’s the question I’ve gotten asked, How did the White People [...]

If I were petty and racially-driven, I would be upset with my Virginia Governor Bob McDonell. His decision to call April Confederate History Month has sparked anger with Black Democrats across the state. Black Republicans within the state are now scrambling to answer calls of “Uncle Tom” and “Traitor”. As the newly named President of [...]

I’m standing in the Republican Capital Hill Club conversing with Lester Phillips, candidate for 5th Congressional Seat in AL, when I noticed “that’s Michael Steele”. I immediately began to run my questions in my mind. This was the moment I had been waiting for, the moment I got to meet my Hero in the 2008 [...]

History is filled with broken promises, unrealized dreams, and an elite class of people who think they know better than the rest of us. Every Dictator knew it was more important to expand his empire than feed his people. Every King understood History would record their battles not the atrocities committed by his soldiers. Every Political [...]

Really, I’m trying. I’ve spent the last year trying not to talk about President Barack Obama. While I mention him here and there, it’s mostly about policy. I am vehemently against a Government take over in Healthcare and it doesn’t have a thing to do with Obama. Before I was diagnosed with Crohns, the Doctors’ [...]
