Tracy Morgan’s Gay Bashing Rant
Comedian Tracy Morgan has come under fire lately because of some homophobic remarks he made during his live comedy show in Tennessee about a week ago. The first half of this blog is taken from a post written by a man named Kevin Rogers who was in attendance at the show and was deeply offended by Mr. Morgan’s hate speech.Read the Rest…
Teacher Leaves Muslim Student In Tears
A Houston Algebra teacher at Clear Brook High school (Mr Todd Burrows) mocked a 9th grade Muslim student by telling her “I heard about about your uncle” after Bin Laden’s death. The student’s mom says she was offended by what her daughter says happened Monday in ninth grade algebra. She said, “The teacher told the student that ‘I bet you’reRead the Rest…
College Basketball Slavery
While flipping through channels the other night trying to find something good to watch, I came upon a very interesting story on PBS’s news-magazine show “Frontline”. It’s kind of like “Dateline” on NBC, but 10 times better, and not controlled by a multi-national major conglomerate who’s only agenda is to make as much money as possible by churning out the same substandardRead the Rest…
Why The Nene Backlash?
I’m a huge fan of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Nene is the whole reason I watch the show. I think she’s the most relateable out of all the cast members and definitely the most likable. That’s why I’m so shocked at the recent backlash that she’s been getting from recent press and from different internet blogs. People love toRead the Rest…
Elton John With Husband & New Baby Gets Censored
On January 18, 2011, Us Weekly debuted Elton John and partner David Furnish’s new baby, Zachary on the front cover. The happy singer talked about the birth of their son and said that they wouldn’t be spoiling him, but lavishing love on him. Seems all well and good, right? That is, until I checked my Twitter feed and found this disturbing piece.Read the Rest…
Church Fight Caught On Video
Recently I posted a video of an incident that took place at a church here in North Carolina. I could explain the video’s content, but it wouldn’t do it justice. So if you haven’t seen it, then I’d suggest you take a look at it before you read the rest of this blog. (watch it directly from my blog, orRead the Rest…
Who Is Bayard Rustin?
It saddens me that I’ve never heard of this amazing and courageous gentleman. The black community continually omits any positive gay black leaders. This man was a HUGE part of the civil rights movement and we know nothing about him. There are thousands of books, newsreels news articles, movies, documentaries, text books, lectures, poems, etc detailing everything about the Civil RightsRead the Rest…
The Right Movie At The Right Time
I randomly came across this movie early this morning (4am) because I couldn’t sleep. I was shocked that I had never heard of it before. Even though it was released in 2009, the message is so very relevant to everything going on in the news right now. Gay-bashing, homophobes, religious zealotry, gay teen suicide, etc. What’s even more amazing isRead the Rest…
Rick Ross Rip Off?
Lil Wayne always says that he doesn’t listen to anyone’s music besides himself. I use to think that was crazy and a bit self-absorbed, but now I think I understand why. I had this epiphany just this morning. Here’s what happened: Last night I couldn’t sleep, so I got out my recording equipment and decided to work on some newRead the Rest…
