(ThyBlackMan.com) It’s been hard to sit back and watch the first bi-racial president systematically dismantle our constitution over the last seven years. It’s only natural for a black conservative like myself to want to see the first black Republican president reverse the course. This is why it pains me to ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I am looking forward to Nov. 8 and to voting for Hillary Rodham Clinton to lead the United States. I am so extremely excited that a woman of character, experience, and discernment can lead our nation. Even as I look forward to the November vote, I am fully enjoying ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) While I admit I’m a fan of Beyoncé and like the artistry to her new song formation and think she’s a great black performer, she should stick to music not politics. Basically, Beyoncé and her Black Panther groupies gave young black men license to kill last night during the ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) Each year observances and events offered in recognition of Black History Month offer opportunities for people of all colors and locales to reflect on the unique experiences of Blacks both past and present. Many of the annual observances chronicle progress since the passage of laws adopted years ago to ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) The 2012 presidential election delivered a wake-up call to the Republican Party to improve communication with minorities. The realization that the American presidency can now be won with support of less than 40 percent of white voters — Obama won with just 39 percent — was a bombshell. When ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) It’s Black History Month again, and this is the first post on this blog where I’m mentioning it. It might be the last; it might not be. Doesn’t really matter since I’m liable to talk about race relations and diversity issues all times during the year. It’s time to ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) Bill Clinton barely got the words out of his mouth lambasting the Bernie Sanders camp for what he bluntly said were attacks on Hillary that were to sexist and to “profane” to repeat when a Sanders campaign official shot back that the attack was “disappointing.” Sanders for his part ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) It is regrettable that there were no lead stories among the African American press (print media or otherwise), which could have acted as a catalyst for a discussion of an issue of great import to the African American (AA) community. And that issue is the increase of the AA ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I was born and raised in New Awlins and never miss the opportunity to remind folks of that. So when Beyoncé’s video for “Formation” dropped on Saturday, I, like the majority of my homegirls, was hype. I wasn’t excited because I’m a certified Beyoncé stan, because the video is visually stunning, or ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) Alright, alright; enough about my column from last week where I called out several RNC staffers by name because of their total disloyalty and disrespect towards me. No more jokes about me being introverted and never speaking my mind. I will admit last week’s column was very pointed and ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) Bernie Sanders raised $20 million with the average donation being just $27.00. What is wrong with Black folks? For decades conscious Black leaders have cajoled, encouraged, admonished, and begged us to raise money among ourselves, a small amount from a lot of people, you know, the way Marcus Garvey ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) If one goes solely by mainstream media coverage, one would assume police/community relations in the inner city hadn’t progressed beyond the last riot! I’m typing this in New Orleans, whose police department is under a federal consent decree for severe shortfalls in several high-profile cases. I remain committed to ...
