    This is Carter G Woodson.

    Son of former slaves he taught himself how to read and write and eventually got a Ph.D from Harvard.

    As you can see in his younger pick the look is one of I don’t F*#% around. In his older pic he looks as if to say I know something you don’t. His book the Miseducation of the Negro is a must read.

    Here are some quotes I think that are very relevant today.

    “The race will free itself from exploiters just as soon as it decides to do so. No one else can accomplish this task for the race. It … more

    They say the chances of one being born is 1 in 400 trillion so I often go back and forth between the sacredness of this experience and knowing ultimately humans are just a blip in time and space.

    Astronomers say in 10 billion years the sun will die. Before it dies it will get hotter and engulf the Earth. I can’t even imagine 10,000 years so the question is how do I balance knowing that we are a spec, and that we are a part of some divine expression? The dance I take between these 2 extremes is an interesting one. Often being Zen and … more

    I recently realized that Black Holes don’t just live in the physical universe. They exist in humans. I see people who lose all reasoning when their emotions get involved r when they believe in bullshit as a result of programming. Like Black Holes which destroy anything that enters them including light, humans do the same with reasoning and facts.

    For instance, some Black people support Donald Trump, I have even heard a few Black people state critical race theory should not be taught. Reason seems to be destroyed no matter what facts are presented. We see this happen all the time with white people cause … more

    Tim Scott was on the Trevor Noah show and he said he was going to “pivot” when asked if he would run as Trump’s Vice President. I know some say just ignore people like this but because they do and say things white people often can’t that impact the Black collective we need to make these people pay a price. I call this fool Uncle Tim and people like Candace Owens bed wenches. These people must be shamed because they are working just to get extra biscuits for themselves and the rest of us be damned even tho they pretend to be concerned with the … more

    Our ancestors came up with the term “Neter.” It is where the word natural comes from. The ending “al”  means having come from. Europeans somehow translated Neters to mean gods. This is one of the biggest mistranslations in history and leads us to a misunderstanding that has serious implications for Black people. This is especially true since many have adopted the religion of Christianity which was and is used to disconnect us from spirituality.

    The Neters were physical manifestations of Cosmic Law and Order. By understanding these laws they were able to do things that still baffle humans today, from building pyramids that demonstrated … more

  • Black Men: From Sexual Deviants to Toxic

    in Culture

    I am very happy for the success of Black people in any mainstream arena since the gates only seem to let a few of us in at a time. This is why we need to create our own institutions but that’s for another article. Michael B. Jordan and Jonathan Majors are two very talented brothers at the top of their game and are enjoying the fruits of mastering their craft.

    I took note of an article on CNN where the author stated that there was “backlash” as a result of the men hugging when Major’s received a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. The … more

    The rags are talking.  Paramount Global might be unloading the BET Media group. 

    Tyler Perry and Byron Allen are both interested.

    This would be a game changer for BET and Black Culture.

    If you checked out my post 3 Black History Questions You can’t Answer you will know that Black history for me goes waaaaaaay back. It’s great to know about Black American Inventors and Mansa Musa etc. but we have to get more than the fast food version of our past to realize what we are capable of when we share values and are proactive instead of reactive.

    With the above said few know that Black folks built a wall that extended around and through the Kingdom of Benin.

    The wall was located in Nigeria in the Edo region. Theouter city wall was 9,900 miles and … more
