Yes, the Heat are the champions, again…woopdie-doo *sarcastic tone*. I said it before and I am inclined to reiterate a similar point this year. I watched game seven of the NBA finals last night from the booth of a DC “U Street” Bar. The room battled with cheers and boos as the Spurs and Heat […]
Paula Deen has issued an apology for using racist language that essentially plays upon stereotypes of white southerners in an effort for us to accept her “my bad.”
Robin Thicke’s current single “Blurred Lines” f/ Pharrell and T.I. is sitting at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. But not everyone is singing along. A growing chorus of voices take issue with the song, and have even accused it of promoting rape
Rhymes and Reasons interviews Pugz Atomz about the Hip Hop songs that changed his life: Saafir’s “Light Sleeper,” Whodini’s “The Freaks Come Out,” “Spaceship” from Kanye West, GLC, and Consequence, and “Brooklyn Hardrock,” by Thurston Howell III.

He was so angry about it he made the beat which would later become “New Nat Turners“. He called me after he sent it and we discussed […]
In just a few days, I will be graduating from one of the most “prestigious” universities in the country. This act will place me in a legacy of Black and Brown kids who graduated from institutions that have no true understandings of difference and inclusion, despite whatever their liberal mission statements may boast about.

According to census data, nearly half of all children in the U.S. under the age of 5 years-old are minorities. Furthermore, whites are a minority among babies, and will be in the minority of children under the age of 18.
A new poll conducted by the Pew Research Center revealed that blacks have less of an issue than others with the government encroaching upon citizens’ privacy: “Fully 45 percent of all Americans say the government should be able to go further than it is, saying that it should be able to monitor everyone’s online activity […]
Jury selection for the Trayvon Martin trial begins today. George Zimmerman, who has admitted to fatally shooting Martin, is on trial for second-degree murder and is facing at least 25 years, should he be convicted: A key part of the prosecution’s case will likely be a recording to police dispatchers in which Zimmerman said that […]
