(ThyBlackMan.com) The San Antonio Spurs are not dead yet, and that is the one thing the New York Knicks did not want to hear after Game 3. After dropping the first two games of the NBA Finals at home, the Spurs walked into Madison Square Garden with their season leaning over the edge. One more loss, and this series would have felt almost finished. Not officially, but everybody watching would […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) We have a popular saying that goes something like this, “Rome was not built in a day” and we all have a good understanding what that means. The truth is that I do not know how long it took to build Rome, but I know that the entire universe, what we can see and that which is invisible, were created by God in six days. Almighty God, creator of […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Since its inception in 1997, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) was never about expanding and promoting women’s basketball. It was always about the marketing and promotion of the homosexual agenda.  It was a brilliant move at first glance; but as with all things liberal, the NBA (the men’s league) and liberals took it too far! Most, if not all of the major sports leagues are controlled and run […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) One thing about us, we know our people when we see them. You can watch one Druski clip and before the skit even gets rolling good, somebody in the room will say, “That sound just like Ray Ray,” or “That’s Sister Johnson from church right there.” That is why his stuff works. He is not pulling strangers out of nowhere. He is taking faces, voices, habits, and foolishness we […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The Lord’s salvation is awesome. Every recipient of this experience becomes a new creation. Old things are passed away, the Bible says (2 Corinthians 5:17). People who once hated God fall in love with Him. One of the most fascinating things I witnessed during my years as a pastor is that through the life-changing gospel of Christ, even those whom society has given up on can find newness of […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Kamala Harris is one of those public figures I have had to sit with a little bit. I cannot say I ever looked at her and felt only one thing. There was some pride, sure, but there were questions too, and I do not believe Black voters should feel guilty for asking questions. Down South, you learn early that everybody smiling at you is not automatically for you, and […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) I have heard this debate in barbershops, at cookouts, around card tables, and in those long talks where somebody swears they are not arguing while clearly arguing. Put Michael Jackson and James Brown in the same sentence and you are going to wake up somebody’s opinion. One person will say Michael was the greatest entertainer God ever placed on a stage. Another will say James Brown was the man […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The conversation around wealth-building in Black communities has always centered on ownership. Own the building, own the business, own the block. What has shifted in the last decade is what ownership actually looks like — and where the most accessible entry points exist. For a growing number of entrepreneurs, the answer is digital platforms, and the barriers to entry have never been lower. The traditional path to business ownership […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) When Barack Obama first started rising nationally, a lot of brothers paid attention immediately because something about him felt different. I am not even talking politics at first either. I am talking about the way the man carried himself. Calm. Sharp. Measured. The brother looked like somebody who thought before speaking. For many Black men, especially those of us who grew up watching negative images of ourselves blasted everywhere […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) One thing I had to learn the hard way is that a brother can be doing everything people asked of him and still not know how to enjoy his own life. That sounds strange until you have lived it. You can get up early, go to work, keep gas in the car, help your children, check on your mama, pray over your house, and still feel like you are not […]
