(ThyBlackMan.com) Slave to the job. Told what you will earn, what to wear, when to eat, when to arrive, when to leave and what to do. Slave to the church, not to God. Told what to think, what to believe, how to worship, what God said and what you should ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) March 18, 2016 an article was posted on ThyBlackman.com entitled “An Uneducated White Guy’s Thoughts on Black People,” written by Stefan Pyles…one that needs to be addressed.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Today African American men are expected to be providers for women, often whether they are married to the women or not. But if you are not married to a woman and the two of you do not live together, YOU are not under any obligation to pay her bills, ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I recently read an article about the reformation of Riker’s Island, an infamous jail located in NYC. And, I’m thinking, I guess they’re going to make it a bit more comfortable, a bit more inviting, a bit more spacious; and a lot more durable for future generations. They’ll claim ...

(ThyBlackMan.com) Damn, I love playing Spades and Bid-Whist. I love the games even more when I’m Trump-Tight. I control the board; in fact, the room and the board…of a whole lot of people. And a whole lot of money. Up front money; behind the back money; even kick back into ...
