The Abortion Issue, Again? May 5, 2022

Ok. The historic abortion decision Roe V Wade has recently been struck down by the Supreme Court of the United States and the American populace has angrily and aggressively chosen sides as usual. One side is claiming that a woman’s right to get an abortion at her convenience has been taken away. That same side is also saying that “if you don’t have Fallopian tubes, a uterus or a vagina, stay out of a woman’s reproductive business!” Funny, this same side NEVER says this to the Tranz community. Oh well. I guess that would be too much like right.

The other side is cheering and saying, “Good, abortion is murder!” “Protect the unborn!” “Take accountability ladies for your sexual behavior or sexual reproductive choices the very same way men are held accountable, but through the legal system !” They are saying, “You only want planned parenthood funded because you are too cheap to pay for your own abortions and you want tax payers to continue to fund the results of your one night stands when the law forces men to pay out of their own pockets or face jail time for not being able to pay for their results of a one night stand!”
Next, you have the Black American side. “They put these abortion clinics in the black community to abort black babies!” “Over 18 million black babies have been aborted/murdered since 1973. This has stunted the growth of our race!” Yet, black teenaged babies and black grown babies abort/murder each other by the hundreds in the inner cities across America on just about any given weekend. Also, the last time I checked a woman makes the choice to walk into an abortion clinic.
I went back and did some research on the Roe v Wade decision of 1973. Basically it was a white woman who taught against then Texas DA, Henry Wade (BTW who has a large juvenile detention center in Dallas named after him) and yes, you already know which two racial groups make the majority of kids that facility.
Henry Wade pushed for the abortion ban in the state of Texas. Jane Roe was a fictitious name given to protect the identity of Norma McCorvey who passed away in 2017. She filed the suit against the state of Texas and the Supreme Court struck down Henry Wade’s abortion ban. Basically, the white woman wanted total ownership of her right to choose whether or not she wanted to keep or terminate a pregnancy.
Interesting, historically the white woman did not seem to be so adamant about a woman’s right to choose to carry a baby or abort a baby she did not want when thousands of enslaved African women were being raped by her husband the plantation owner or the overseers at will and forced to carry to term the babies of violent rapists on the slave plantations in America and in the Caribbean. It was white women on those plantations who even beat, tortured and killed those pregnant black female victims of rape, many who were well under the age of 18.
So, white women fighting for the control of their bodies and their right to reproductive ownership and decision making has always really been all about them. This abortion issue is just another fight along with the feminist movement between her and her white men. Black women have only been used to pad their numbers in the crowd just like in the feminist movement. Sadly, Black women have not realized this yet after all of these years even as her own race crumbles under the many acts of abortion and the tyranny of feminism.
When it all boils down to it, Black Americans are on the losing end again. Until WE get back to the basis of racial UNITY which will have to include mutual racial and gender respect and both sides returning to their masculine and feminine roles. Meaning, the men will be the men and the women return to being the women. Leave the divisive politics of race, gender, and sexuality to the weirdos outside of our race.
In closing, I am not against abortions. I am not for abortions. My motto is “If can’t afford it, abort it.” Michael Jackson said in his song, “Wanna Be Starting Something” back in the 80s, “If you can’t feed the baby, then don’t have the baby!” My concern is for all of the babies that were born to and who will be born to mentally, emotionally, economically unprepared people. If babies could choose their parents before being born, I don’t think many people in the world today would ever become parents, especially in America.

The Greatest Pain I've Ever Felt: The Conversation with my Absent biological father who never wanted to be found.

The Greatest Pain I Had Ever Felt occurred over 25 years ago while I was still a student at Grambling State University. I will never forget the night that changed everything for me. I remember I was working nights, after class, at the university’s health center in the cleaning department as a work-study student in Grambling State University’s student work-study program to earn extra money to pay for books, food and other living expenses. I liked working there because when I would go on breaks, I would casually slip into one of the nurse’s offices and talk on the phone while my supervisor would be in the break room eating and talking with the nurses who were working the night shift. Well, on this particular night, I discovered that I could make long distance phone calls courtesy of the university health center. The first person I called was my favorite aunt Patricia who lived in Dallas. We started our conversation with me sharing about how things were going for me at college. Then, I a...

I Wonder If Jeremy Brown were Trans.

 I Wonder If #JeremyBrown were Trans.  6/28/2023 I wonder if the cheering of Jeremy Brown’s murder would be as loud and sanctimonious if he were a trans woman (a dude that identifies as a woman) punching a biological black female as a result of a heated argument. I wonder if Black men and black women would hold the trans woman to the same standard of, “A real man never argues with a woman.” I wonder if the Black females DA in Chicago, Kim Foxx, would have completely dropped ALL charges and as quickly as she did if the murdered person were trans. I wonder if the description of “murdered victim” would be stripped away from Jeremy Brown if he were trans.  I am wondering about this because I rarely hear or read anywhere where the Black community raises it voice about the dudes who wear wigs who often verbally or physically assault biological women in this country. The trans women have even joined women’s sports such as MMA kick boxing to “legally” pummel women. Yet, I only se...

Dear, GSU President Search Committee.

I sure hope that this time an actual search for Grambling’s next President will be conducted unlike seven years ago. The next President does not have to be a Grambling graduate. They already tried that. However, if should happen to be a Grambling graduate, make sure they understand and actually promote HBCU/Black culture and Black consciousness at Grambling State university on a daily basis.  For the next President, would it be possible to select a person with a Ph.D, who has years of experience in working at a university especially a HBCU as a Professor, a VP for Student Affairs, VP for Academic Academic Enhancement, VP and Provost, a Dean of students or a President of a university, especially a HBCU? Would it possible that the next President of Grambling to have some knowledge of recruitment of Black students? Not only in certain parts of Louisiana, but all over the country? Grambling is a national and global phenomenon. Could the next be a person who sees great value in having L...
