    Are Black Men Child Shamed?

    Have you ever took the time to ponder why when black men expand their families their referred to as “baby daddies?” Why having children by more than one woman is associated with being ignorant, irresponsible or impoverished? How is it that a Caucasian man with three “baby mothers” can become a sitting U.S President without a stain, stigma or rebuke? Why is it when white middle class men have children by multiple women it is respectably referred to as “multi partner fertility” or (MPF)? Is there a reason or agenda behind most studies on multiple baby fathers usually focusing on lower income black women? Does the saying “slant the narrative slant the result” apply?
    If a black father is financially stable and present to care for his children why doesn’t society champion them like they do other demographics. According to the 2017 U.S. Census Bureau “roughly one third of parents who’ve been married two or more times are inclusive of MPF.” Is the child shaming of black men and women related to the eugenics history in America courtesy of Planned Parenthoods founder Margaret Higgins Sanger infamously known for proclaiming “a free race can’t be born to slave mothers.” Does MPF shaming and anti black children propaganda contribute to the genocide of Black babies in America?

    CNN attempts to “MUTE” Ice Cube!!

    Rap Icon and Big3 owner Ice Cube’s scheduled interview with CNN on Oct.15 was abruptly canceled allegedly “silencing” the mogul after he spoke to the Trump administration according to Katrina Pierson a campaign spokeswoman about an agenda to close wealth disparities in America amongst Black people.

    Is the Democratic party and the “powers that be” according to Ice Cube showing their hand to hold down Foundational Black Americans? Do they believe doing two steps at barbecues and kissing black babies at rallies is enough? Does the blue party see Black Americans as children that they can usurp authority over neglect and ignore? Are they in a timeout by Black people until further notice?

  • NRA still silent on Kenneth Walker and Breonna Taylor.

    NRA still silent on Kenneth Walker and Breonna Taylor.

    Despite Kenneth Walker the significant other of Breonna Taylor having no criminal background and being legally license to carry a firearm the NRA has chosen to remain silent on the horrific slaying of Breonna Taylor. Mr. Walker has been racially maligned since losing his girlfriend. Empathy has been withheld from the gentlemen even after explaining to “CBS This Morning” how he was “deathly afraid” when police home invaded on the couple. An episode that resulted in Walker presuming he was exercising his Second Amendment rights and protecting their home by firing at an unannounced intruder whom happened to be law enforcement. A person in service to it’s local community who is (for some reason) trained to shoot deadly fire when encountering perceived civilian threats. A legal coercing and lethal teaching that ultimately caused Breonna Taylor to die by the person who is publicly funded to protect her, a police officer. Taylor’s death has been a non issue to the organization who’s decided not to speak up for the bereaved partner now facing legal action. Does the NRA’s mission to “protect and defend the constitution” apply to Black Americans and their rights? Are they a monopoly?

  • No Black Family Emoji Option On Android? Foul or Coincidence?

    No Black Family Emoji Option On Android? Foul or Coincidence?

    Have you taken a moment to notice that there is no option for a Black family emoji on the standard android keyboard?

    Do you think this digital error is an intentional effort to support propaganda against the Black community or a grave oversight?

    Is canceling only for subscriptions or are people fair game?

    In todays climate it isn’t uncommon to see a celebrity disavowed over choosing the wrong political party or after a ramble that went on longer than perceived helpful. Does professing our own as irredeemable further division in our community or is it necessary reproach?
