(ThyBlackMan.com) Last night I had dinner with my good friend, Sir Winston Churchill.  He served as British Prime Minister during World War II.  He asked me, “Jackson, what is wrong with your people [referring to the Black community]?” He seemed perplexed by how Democrats interact with them, especially during election season.  He said, “Blacks were a riddle wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.” So, I had to rationally explain […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) No jokes today because the cavalcade of folk running scared saying Trump will weaponize the DOJ and target his political enemies is full of shit. I can say this objectively without fear of retribution outside of words being hurled my way (sticks and stones) because it is true. Regular folk know the difference between revenge, retribution, and accountability. What we, the people, and hopefully, the incoming administration seek is […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) It’s time for Black Americans to take a hard look at our political strategy and start demanding more than symbolism and empty promises. If we continue down the path of blindly following party lines, we risk being left behind as the country moves forward. Despite shifting 21% to the right in recent elections, Black voters—especially Black women—continue to be the most loyal demographic to the Democratic Party. But why? […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Sean “Diddy” Combs, the music mogul and entrepreneur once celebrated for his industry-shaping influence, now finds himself at the center of a courtroom drama that rivals any of his hit records. Accusations of violating jail rules and manipulating his children to influence potential jurors have only added to the storm surrounding Combs, who remains incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Now that the election is over and the shock of Trump winning a convincing and decisive victory has sunk in, it’s time to look back to see how this happened and why the Deep State and its lackeys failed to stem the tide of dissatisfaction and angst that was actively percolating in the psyches of so many people. Looking at the election count map the Democrats got walloped, only […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Few celebrity relationships have left as profound a cultural impact as that of Rihanna and Chris Brown. Once considered the golden couple of the music industry, their relationship came to a shocking end over a decade ago following a highly publicized incident of domestic violence. The fallout from their split reshaped their careers and left an indelible mark on how fans viewed them as individuals. Despite their troubled history, […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Do you remember a time when Americans cared that their fellow citizens had been kidnapped and held captive by terrorists? I do. Think back to 1979, when Iranian terrorists stormed the American embassy in Tehran. They held more than 50 Americans hostage for 444 days. And we cared. The Americans held captive were constantly on our minds. There were strong showings of solidarity. News of the hostage crisis was […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Donald Trump’s comprehensive victory in the U.S. presidential election has indisputably created a new international agenda. Trump’s Republicans now also have complete control of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Like him or hate him, he has become, unquestionably, the most powerful leader in the world. Donald Trump is returning to the White House with the promise to voters that he is a peacemaker and with a vow […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I’ve been told that I give the Black church too much credit. But when you look at how our ancestors navigated through the harsh realities of racial oppression and White supremacy to survive, it is credit well deserved. On our worst day as Black men and women living in the 2024 version of America, it will never compare to the typical day of a Black person trapped in the […]
