THIS HAS TO STOP, BLACK PEOPLE!

 

If you’re black, especially a black man, and you support Trump or you don’t hate him like they think you are supposed to, black folks who you are related to through blood and marriage, who you rode the elementary school bus with, graduated from high school with, who you go to church with, who you drink and play cards with, who you went to college with, who are dating, who are married to, who are in the same fraternity of sorority with etc, who you go trips/vacations with will flat out attack you, demonize you, and vilify you as if you’ve never met.

It’s so bad that there are Black men and Black  women who support Trump or who are non Democrats or Republicans are forced to go into hiding or stay quiet about their support and their political views  during the election seasons out of avoiding assured verbal backlash and some cases, very aggressive confrontations members of their own race. It’s madness. 

I thought that this was a Democracy where people have the right to support whoever they want politically. I thought people had the right to support and vote for whoever they want regardless of political party. (Republican, Democrat, Independent etc). 

I may not agree with some of my fellow black people’s political views and the candidates they support, but making them feel threatened and even unsafe because they vote Democrat and they want Biden back in office is not and has NEVER been my MO. 

Who told Democratic Blacks that they controlled the voting choices of every Black person, ESPECIALLY the voting and political choices of all black men in our race in this country. I wanna know exactly who the fuck told them this! I want put that person or those persons in check, real time! 

It’s ok for Black people to be Democrats. It’s ok for Black people to be Independents. It’s ok for Black people to be Republican. It’s ok for Black people to vote for Biden in November. It’s ok for Black people to vote for any Third Party or Independent candidate in November. It more than ok for any Black American, especially Black MEN, to vote for Donald Trump in November. Get over it!!

Stop harassing and demonizing masculine, straight BLACK MEN for leaving the Democratic Party! Oh and just because so many black men have left and continuing to leave DOES NOT mean they are headed to the Republican Party. Stop telling/spreading that lie!

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 Lyceu

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 seem to hear the
