DEATH WISH 101: Four (4) Reasons Black Men Should Avoid Drugs and Alcohol at all Cost.

You ever wonder why hip-hop music is the genre that is most uniquely focused on big, white corporations paying black men to brag about how high and drunk they are? You think this is a coincidence? Sorry, but it’s not. There is a reason why an artist rapping about smoking and drinking will usually get a deal before a rapper who spits about being intelligent and hard-working. Much of this is because there are people who have a vested interest in seeing black men weak and easily built for incarceration or execution. To understand where I’m coming from, think about the actions of a pimp. When a pimp is seeking to control his hooker, one of the things he might do is keep his “employee” high, dependent, thoughtless and off-balance.

So, the point here is that America has been working to consistently pimp the black man (slavery was the ultimate form of pimping), and one of the ways they...

Who Killed Malcolm X?

He will make use of me dead, as he has made use of me alive, as a convenient symbol of "hatred"—and that will help him to escape facing the truth."  — The Autobiography of Malcolm X I think it's safe to say that had Sirhan Sirhan, Arthur Bremer or Mark David Chapman been granted parole in early 2010, it would have made the news. When they're routinely denied parole it usually makes the news. Yet Thomas Hagan (aka Talmadge Hayer), one of the convicted assassins of Malcolm X--the only one caught at the scene and the only one to confess--was granted parole between the span of the morning and evening news of April 27, 2010 to little attention. But then, even in 2010, the gap between the public perception and the historical reality of Malcolm X remains as immense as it was in 1965. H...
