Another Strike Against Black Men..DAMN!


I really don't even know what to say man...for those of y'all who read Essence's Sep 2K6 issue (with Beyonce on the cover lookin straight up white) and were outraged with the article on Black men's Brazilian sex vacations be prepared to be further disgusted...

Details magazine published a story detailing the budding sex labor industry with Black men performing in orgies hosted by whites to fulfill fantasies of being "thugged" by Black men in the bedroom. It's bad enough to relapse to (or retain?) the same sexual fetishization of Blacks as the days of slavery. Worst part? One of the Black men even goes so far as to say that this relationship formed through the sex parties they throw work to improve Black/white relations...and apparently this is a growing trend in the nation. Wow, the next damn worse thing than a DL brotha.

Oh Lord. Read On?

Just Call Him an Uncle Tom Already Since That's What You Mean



Clearly white people are going a little too crazy about Obama...and you woulda thought it would be the Black folks huh? They have made up their own lil nickname for Obama "the magical Negro"...which is being used by both the "left" and the "right"....do I actually have to differentiate? They're the same really...Anyway I feel crazy with all this drama surrounding Obama. Can we just let the man run?? No More Drama!!!

They Sued Because They Got a Black Baby...



OOPS!!

After a couple realized a mistake made by a fertility clinic resulting in the birth of a Black child they made the decision to sue. Wow?

In all honesty though I feel for lil Jessica...this entire debacle combined with having white parents will definitely take it's toll on her. A damn shame.

Not Everyone Believes in the Dynasty...



University of Florida denies Jeb Bush an honorary degree.

HA!

This actually means very little to me, but I figured that it was funny enough to post whether or not he was denied a degree solely based on politics or other reasons.

Is Slavery Relevant Today??



Is it just me or does it seem crazy that people still feel the need to debate the "effect of slavery"? Looking at society (not just American society, but an international one...if it exists?) and the hierarchy of races/nations isn't it obvious that slavery has had a profound effect on not just "the Black experience" but also in determining global stature and citizenship?

I mean...It seems obvious to me...but clearly people still feel the need to debate.

Africa for Africans!!



Angola has called off talks with the IMF (International Monetary Fund) on the grounds that they don't need IMF to support their economy (read: control their country). Another deal with the devil narrowly escaped (see: Jamaica). Stay strong Angola!

Georgia Would NOT Like to Apologize



Instead of following in Virginia's footsteps (which really is meaningless, purely symbolic) Georgia's senate panel has instead approved "Confederate Month". I guess this means that would be the month to disparage Blacks and deny them their constitutional rights. Now what month is that again? Jan-ember?

Black Men= Good Fathers?

For a long time Black men have been given a bad rap for their parenting skills or lack thereof...Tyler Perry seeks to dispel these stereotypes with "Daddy's Little Girls"...





If this can change the mentality of men's role in parenting then I'll call it a success. In attacking the problem of fathering in the Black community it instead highlights it as existing solely in the Black community rather than placing it into the larger national (and arguably international) context of men and fathering.

...it's not a "Black thing".

Sunday Throwback



Lookin at K-Ci's foolishness a few days ago I was transported back to the days when I might have bought all that mess....Classic.
