Honestly, I have wanted to speak on Rape Culture for a while, but I have remained hesitant for a long time, quite simply because I am a man. The privilege of being a man and talking about such a sensitive subject, from a position of power is one that I, even now, am not entirely […]

N.B.A. hall of famer and businessman Earvin “Magic” Johnson has opened an education center in downtown Atlanta to help youth who haven’t complete school or who are at risk of not finishing: The Magic Johnson Bridgescape center helps give those who have left school, or are at risk of dropping out, the opportunity to earn […]

A southern California car chase following a bank robbery featured an interesting twist. The robbers tossed cash from the car as they sped down the freeway! The cops want anyone who grabbed the flying money to give it back. Would you?
