(ThyBlackMan.com) Modern humanity is obsessed with fighting. We seem to see and filter virtually everything through the military paradigm one way or another. There is scarcely a film coming out of the studios, whether from Hollywood or elsewhere, that does not have a lot of fighting or else runs the risk of being called dull, boring or not very exciting. Across the world there is so much fighting going on […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Trump Derangement Syndrome prevents those who dislike President Donald Trump from giving him credit for virtually anything. In the first nine months of Trump 2.0, his detractors fail to credit him for: securing the southern border in a matter of weeks; gas prices now at a four-year low; the steep decline in the price of eggs; a stock market hitting record highs, benefiting the nearly half of American adults […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is trump.” This was one of thousands of newly released emails that about Trump’s sleaze relationship with documented pedophile, sex trafficker, business dealing con artist Jeffrey Epstein. Tens of thousands more will be released by the House before November is out. But there are three problems with this email release that again seems to point the finger squarely […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) For those who have stood strong in the fight against diversity, equity and inclusion, the recent election results in New Jersey, Virginia and New York City were not helpful in supporting their intolerance and anti-DEI movement. While the democrats were the big winners, racial, gender and religious diversity also won decisively. The voters in New Jersey elected Democrat Mikie Sherrill making her the second woman to be elected governor […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The current political environment displays an extraordinary number of significant changes which have never been seen. The Republican Party encountered increasing public scrutiny about Donald Trump’s bond with Jeffrey Epstein while the Democratic Party secured two governor positions in New Jersey and Virginia. The present political news cycle differs from previous ones because it contains more than standard partisan disagreements. It’s something deeper. The public seeks accountability because they […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Now that Zohran Mamdani is the mayor-elect of New York City, expect the slings and arrows at him to intensify.  He has been called everything but a child of God, and he gleefully claims himself as a democratic socialist, a Muslim, a progressive social justice advocate and a leader who recognizes the shoulders on which he stands, shouting out some of the workers responsible for his victory. He is […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Harriet Tubman’s life and words remain among the most inspiring in American history. She was not merely an abolitionist but a visionary whose courage helped shape the moral conscience of a divided nation. Tubman’s statements, recorded from speeches, letters, and conversations, are as much declarations of truth as they are reflections of an indomitable spirit. The seven quotes below illuminate her resilience, her profound faith, and her unbreakable pursuit of […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Donald Trump’s approval numbers continue to crater. Even Republicans have cooled on the president’s performance. But the president shows no sign of noticing, nor is he changing his ways. Even his gaslighting has gone wan. He’s failed to make Americans believe that prices are going down when they’re clearly not. What gives? Why isn’t he trying to win back the public’s love? Perhaps because he no longer cares. The […]

Similar investments are underway in Pittsburgh. On the surface, these are the headlines American manufacturing needs.
