Republican Leiutenant Governor Candidate E.W Jackson will do anything for money!

Pastor E.W Jackson will do anything for money!

I am shocked that the Republican Party would pick any candidate for Virginia Leiutenant Governor that

would talk negative about black people in general and make what he say the right way about discussing race, issues, and public policy with views on a particular race in general. Moreover, E.W Jackson has went out his way to say Planned Parenthood is worse than the KKK to black people. Maybe, E.W Jackson is saying that

because he is not hanging from a tree or being…

A $40M Solution to Black Youth Unemployment

Before most decisions are made I think it would bode us all well to sit back and first do the math. Like any other problem, Black youth unemployment is in need of a comprehensive solution. Every Black pundit, talking head and national organization keeps talking about it, but with all the talk and finger pointing the endgame is always the same. Nothing gets done.

So they…

Audio: Advocacy effort regarding high black male unemployment in Topeka Kansas [Dec. 13, 2012]

Hope you can find time to listen to these recordings. The topic is very relevant to any community in which black men find themselves at a disadvantage in government, politic and business. The discourse in these audio files really show how deep the pathology goes for non-minorities with the power to make decisions over the lives of others they are not associated with. 
Below, I also share what I passed out to the elected officials before they…

Our Assignment (the resurrection of the mentally dead Black Man and Woman) will require the Nature, Skills and Mentality of a Warrior.

Our assignment will move us from one battle to another.  Adversity is inevitable our enemy observes all progress. God will mentor us in warfare. The scriptures says “He trains my hands for battle; he strengthens my arm to draw a bronze bow.” Psalm 18; 34 “Praise the Lord, who is my rock. He trains my hands for war and gives my fingers skill for battle.” Psalm 144:1.

A warrior only uses the weapons that never failed him. David rejects the weapons of other while fighting…

Newt, It is a fact that White People have commited more crimes than Black People in America! (Food Stamp comments)

More White People have commited crimes than any other ethnic group in history.  This is my response to Newt Gingrich that more people are on Food Stamps than any other American President.  Also, Newt failed to mention that President Bush started the downward spiral with no clue on how to fix the nation’s economy because of policies pushed by the Republican Party.  I remember watching television as Bush shook hands after signing the Bush Tax Cuts into law with huge smiles all over their…

Watermelon Basketballs, Gold Chains & Old Spice Swagger

Charles Lowman of NuVibe Radio joins us tonight to discuss the Syrius Institute of Learning - Dominican Republic which is seeking "to provide supplemental education to under-privileged children and to promote sustainability through adult education programs.". If you would like to contribute to this fund raising campaign you can find it on indiegogo where you will receive a thank you gift tailored to your contribution.

What does Watermelon Basketballs and Gold Chains have to do with deodorant? The Black Talk Media Project is asking that question. We expected suspected racist white people to defend the Old Spice commercial which aired during the NBA Finals last night but while not surprising, African-AMERICANS are failing to recognize the racial undertones of the not only the commercial but its placement.

In political news, a recent SCOTUS case resulted in the further erosion of so-called "civil rights". The US Supreme Court has ruled in a 5-4 decision in the case Salinas v. Texas, that your right to remain silent can be used against you in a criminal trial should you be charged with the crime for which you are being questioned by police. Texas Prosecutors in the case argued that Salinas’ silence during a police interview prior to his arrest was a “very important piece of evidence” and that only a guilty person would have remained silent when questioned about his connection to a crime. Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the majority opinion that Salinas “was required to assert the privilege in order to benefit from it,” even though a person questioned while under arrest could not have his silence used against him.

Tonight we will be joined by Mr. J. Jondhi Harrell and Mr. Glenn Davis from "Decarcerate PA" which back in May held a march in Pennsylvania to demand a people's budget that invests in communities and not prisons. Judging from the participation in the march, it was successful in raising public awareness about 21st Century Slavery and Human Trafficking.

"Decarcerate PA is a grassroots campaign working to end mass incarceration in Pennsylvania. We demand that PA stop building prisons, reduce the prison population, and reinvest money in our communities."

After we speak with Mr. Harrell and Mr. Davis we will share some of the latest news related to 21st Century Slave and Human Trafficking and open the phone lines for a general discussion on the issue.

World Star Hip-Hop has built a media platform that has become a clearinghouse for the worst of “Urban America” according to a recent Change.org petition created by Supreme Understanding of Supreme Design Publishing.

The petition says, "There are some things that we all should know are wrong. Things like sexually exploiting minors or the mentally ill. The administrators of WorldStarHipHop.com apparently do not share these standards of human decency."

Supreme Understanding will join us tonight along with Scotty Reid of the Black Talk Media Project and members of the Militant Mind Movement on Militant Minded Radio to discuss this issue and why the Black community should be involved in this campaign to stop the exploitation of our most vulnerable people.

Same old war songs as US moves to arm Syrian "rebels"



DOWNLOAD MP3
It looks like the US could get pulled into another non-declared war launched by the executive branch that could cost the American tax payers billions in a no win situation for the American people. Members of the Obama administration have been pushing language with the help of pro-war members of the Senate that sounds strikingly similar to that used to justify invading Iraq, which we now know were lies about weapons of mass destruction and mushroom clouds. CIA analyst Ray McGovern compared it to President Bush's Axis of Evil Speech to congress.

Former French foreign minister Roland Dumas in a recent interview with French Parliamentary TV network, LCP that Britain had been planning a war against Syria some two years before the unrest broke out in the Arab country. 
 
“I’m going to tell you something. I was in England two years before the violence in Syria on other business. I met with top British officials, who confessed to me that they were preparing something in Syria, this was in Britain not in America. Britain was organizing an invasion of rebels into Syria. They even asked me, although I was no longer minister for foreign affairs, if I would like to participate.” - Roland Dumas

Last night ABC reported news about 711 store franchise owners running a human trafficking/slavery scheme forcing workers to work for very little pay and keeping them locked up and/or scared of being deported back to Pakistan because their visas had expired. However, if this was able to go on so long involving people from a country the US is waging war in with drone strikes, how effective is the government's domestic spying programs?
