(ThyBlackMan.com) The predictable backlash against the Michael Jackson biopic came fast and furious. Many critics either panned the film or savaged it. There isn’t much middle ground. But that’s no surprise. It was that way with Michael for many of his later years. You were either wildly enthralled by him or wildly repelled by him. Many of the anti “Michael” the film critics are ticked off because it paints a […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I was raised Catholic. Not casually Catholic. My mother was the kind of Catholic who went to Mass every day. Faith was not something she talked about; it was something she did. In our aqua-blue kitchen, she had the lyrics, in white paint, “Holy Mary, dressed in blue, teach me how to pray.” She prayed without ceasing, and her prayers were deep and strong. I went to a Jesuit college, Boston […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) With the new biographical film Michael now in theaters, a fresh generation is once again being introduced to the power, mystery, and brilliance of Michael Jackson. No matter how many years pass, his catalog remains alive because it was built on melody, rhythm, drama, and emotion. Michael did not simply make songs. He made moments. What separated him from many stars was how complete the vision always felt. The […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) With the recent orgy of accusations surrounding former Congressman Eric Swalwell, I have concluded that radical feminist women are the problem, not Swalwell. Swalwell and I have had many interactions over the years.  We are by no means friends or even acquaintances; but my interactions with him did not give me a warm and fuzzy. I found him to be extremely arrogant, condescending and thoroughly full of himself. With […]

A sitting president being rushed out of a public event after a shooting scare is not just a headline. It is a warning sign about the climate of the nation, the anger in the culture, and the rising risk attached to public leadership. When […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) One of the more amusing things about sports are some of the creative and unique athlete nicknames. While many athlete nicknames today are a shortening of the athlete’s first and last name like “A-Rod” for NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers or “KD” for NBA forward Kevin Durant, some nicknames are more creative like “Sexy Dexy” for the biggest and newest Cincinnati Bengal, defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, known for his famous […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Shamar Elkins is a monster. There is absolutely no other way to describe someone, anyone, who guns down eight babies. And that’s exactly what the eight innocents that he murdered are. The blame finger for his hideous crime fell quickly on two perennially troubling maladies. The plague of domestic violence against women. One of his shooting victims was no surprise his wife. Mercifully, she survived. Despite mountains of laws […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Marco Rubio and JD Vance have a lot in common. They are both high-ranking members of the Trump administration who aspire to be president one day. In addition to both of them serving in the U.S. Senate, Rubio and Vance say they are guided by their Catholic faith. The common denominator running through them is political expediency. Political expediency, in this case, is the central force driving the behavior […]
