With all of the cup holders, movie screens and other gadgets that Americans have installed in cars, it has begun to feel like we have forgotten about the simple pleasure of driving. Car companies make commercials that celebrate gas mileage, warranties, seating and trinkets but neglect the craftsmanship that used to make driving such an illustrious experience. Aston Martin, in all of it’s...

The Social Responsibility Of Entertainers
I was flipping through the channels the other day and I came across an interesting segment on BET’s 106 & Park. Now, first and foremost let me just I am not a fan of BET in any way, shape or form. People who know me can tell you that I have a great deal of disdain for the channel but I digress… The hosts of 106 & Park were discussing the controversy surrounding Rihanna’s new music video...

SUICIDE DON'T DO IT.
I HAVE HEARD ABOUT PEOPLE KILLING THEMSELVES 3 TIMES TODAY SO HERE IS MY POINT OF VIEW. I personally had made moves towards killing myself many years ago not because of sexuality but it all leads to the same place and feelings of hopelessness.

Weigh In
Within the last few hours I’ve seen 10K+ people flood the streets, set of fireworks, build fires, sing the national anthem, run with flags and do pretty much everything you would expect to see in a large scale non-violent riot. I have also had some pretty interesting conversations and heard people with different opinions on what the celebrations of Bin Laden’s death. Please vote on...

Thinking Historically →
shutteredwindow:
“Historians must see change over time.” That is, historians start with the premise that things change and that one of their responsibilities is to tell us about how things have changed over time. One of the things they do is remind us that there is a gulf between us and the figures/events of the past! 21st Century America is a very different place from 18th century America,...

Once Again, Sharpton Gets It Wrong
Earlier this week I posted a video clip from MSNBC’s “Black Agenda” special on Sunday afternoon. In the video Rev Al Sharpton and Dr Cornel West shelled out almost apoplectic verbal lambastes of each other and their opposing ideas on Obama’s presidency thus far.
