(ThyBlackMan.com) June is Black Music Month, and for anybody who loves R&B the old way, that means more than playlists and quick social media posts. It means remembering where the sound came from, who carried it, and why certain records still feel alive after the needle leaves the vinyl. Earth, Wind & Fire sit high in that story because they gave Black music something rare. They brought the church, the […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) For Americans traveling in Western Europe this summer, it’s a time of real humility, and some humiliation. You have to be quite the American exceptionalist to defend America these days, when what seems truly exceptional about our country is a presidency that is openly, even flagrantly, corrupt.

They should have taken Kennedy’s name off as well and restored the building to its original, simple title, the National Culture Center.
