(ThyBlackMan.com) With the election upon us, many voters are focused on Donald Trump‘s unravelling mental state and his radical plans to kill off the democracy. But there should be space to recall his scams victimizing ordinary people and his joy in pulling them off. That speaks to character.   Trump’s latest fishy deal involves a crypto operation. But let’s start about three decades earlier, in 1995. Trump’s Atlantic City casinos […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) (***) “It might seem crazy what I’m about to say.” But this fun-to-watch bio/mus/doc should’ve been titled Happy, and not Piece by Piece. That’s the vibe. That’s the depth. Certainly, Pharrell Williams is worthy of a movie about his musical feats. He’s won 13 Grammy Awards; an Academy Award nomination (Happy for Despicable Me 2) and his productions have sold around 100M copies worldwide. Certainly, if Sean Combs could produce a film about […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) “The history of the United States is a story about the disenfranchisement of millions based on their Blackness. More than a hundred years of violent voter suppression, poll taxes, literacy tests, and gerrymandering have created a climate that is nothing shy of hostile towards Black men that choose to stand up and be a part of the electoral process.” – The Black Male Voter Project In a presidential campaign that […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The Chinese have a saying, “May you live in interesting times.” Well, we’re certainly living in interesting times to say the least. We are living in an Orwellian scenario where the world is upside down, language has been weaponized in an effort to maintain and reinforce the Bizzaro World reality we are living in. For example we are told war is peace, invasion and genocide is defense, oligarchy and […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I can’t wait for this election to be over already. My great uncle used to say nothing in government happens by accident. It’s all been by design. He also would say our feathers are slowly being plucked until we can no longer fly. I took that he was using it as a metaphor to suggest what happens when a person gradually loses their power, freedom, or ability. Seeing that […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Now I don’t know about you, but for sure I’m so ready for hearing some truth! Have you been listening to certain people who just say stuff that’s not even close to true. Truth telling isn’t even in their vocabulary. Let’s just check out J.D. Vance, who was calling the man he’s now working for Hitler. J.D. is now supporting him with a straight face, lying for him! We […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I officially retired from the US Army on 1 August 2004 and vividly recall sitting and watching the 2004 Democratic National Committee convention. At that convention, a fella named Barack Hussein Obama gave the keynote speech. He had just become a State Senator in Illinois. Angela and I listened to a rousing, emotional, rhetorical speech using the southern pastoral iambic pentameter rhythm and said to each other…this is the […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) As a kid, I followed the news. I even used to think the word itself was an acronym for North, East, West, and South. My uncle was the Minister of Information for the Black Panther Party of Self-Defense Memphis Chapter. One of the many political issues they confronted head-on was abortion. The Black Panther Party expressed concerns about how abortion was being marketed to Black women. They feared it […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Former British Prime Minister during World War II once told me, “To each there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour.” These are […]
