End the terror

Wednesday  night, June 17th, 2015, I became  very depressed.  I should  say again for I slipped  into a state  after the murder of Mike Brown last year.  I stopped  blogging  at that time.  Recently  I was feeling  better and hopeful.  However  Wednesday  I saw this nation  go back to the same  shit.  If you've  followed  my blogging  in the past, you know I don't  blog stuff for mainstream  publication.  As I tell to my kids, I'm not your joy pill. I'm your  mama. 

The depressing thing for me about Wednesday's  night massacre  is beyond  the lives lost, the flag  and even history. It is, in my opinion, to see even liberals  debate if it was terrorism.  How can we as Blacks escape  the centuries  of terror  in America  if even the liberals  debate  if terror?

What I see in the debate  is more acts of terrorism  in America  against   Blacks.  When we protest  we are denied  our right of assembly. We are threatened  to not have employment  if we visibly  speak  out on the terror.  If we buy arms in large quantities  we are investigated  with swift  judgements( Wesley  Snipes  ). 

Yet every day I'm told  to ignore the large cache  of arms  and ammo purchased  by White people. I'm told to ignore the  lack of due  process  under the law  by police. I'm also told to not block traffic  with my protests  least I inconvenience  White people.  There is a disconnect  in America  and it isn't  amongst  Black  community. 

My state  of Mississippi  has put out information  for churches  to have safe services .  What the hell?  The intent was to kill Blacks  not Christians.  The best we can have is terrorism  applied  to the massacre  to open investigation  into known  hate groups.  The Council  of Conservative  Citizens' website  cofcc.org doesn't  go to their website site. 

As we would say as kids, "God doesn't  like  ugly".  America  needs to wake up  and then  accept  we have homegrown  terrorist.  There are no lone wolves.  These humans get there marching  orders  and are  then cuddled  by the mainstream  media.  It is time to wakeup.

Black Lightning is more than ready for prime time

Black Lightning It is finally here.   I do mean finally for I have been waiting for seems to be ages (1977).   I am calling for a second season having only watched the first two episodes.   I am not sure of the level of involvement Tony Isabella & Trevor Von Eeden in the production of each episode.     The first two I enjoyed, did I say that already?   The first two episodes seems to have been packed with every issue seen in mainstream media and think pieces regarding the Black community.   This posting is not a think piece. It is my piss piece.   Before I touch on the piss, thanks, many thanks, to Salim and Mara Akil for making it happen. Black Lighting   opens with a Black parent, once again, having to bail a child out of jail for exercising his/her right of protest in the USA. We need to question why peaceful protests with no guns see protestors arrested. Please do not take I am saying people of color should have guns at protest marches.   We would be shot before the

White Boys Whine

Quick  and dirty   Star Trek  Discovery  is everything  I  thought  it would  be.  It is my hope the White  boys  chill the fuck out .  There will be a White male captain .   The Black  woman  will be of a lowered  status.  White  boys  are you appeased ? My personal  view fuck White  boys who had their dicks in a vise  over women  of color  at the helm of a fictional  space vessel.  I shall watch  Star Trek  Discovery .  I shall pay the fee to CBS Access  with joy. If you wanted to watch OITNB you paid  Netflix . Overall  I look  forward  to the day a fictional  show  that features  women  of color  in prominent  positions  doesn't  freak out White males.  They were  so freaked  out  they compared  The Orville  to Star Trek  Discovery .  Guys chill out ,  future  happens .

Y'all should eat my grits no cheese

It is two days after the GOP primary in Mississippi. We are still laughing at Mitt's attempt to cuddle up to us with cheesy grits and a few y'alls thrown in. In my area of Mississippi it is yaw'all(10 second word). Had he come here expecting us to be able to count to 20 without removing our shoes, he may have been taken a little bit more seriously. I am not sure if Mitt's grits ranks with Bush's "this part of the world" statement after Katrina but it ranks. Truthfully, I enjoy cheese in my grits along with garlic and red pepper. However, I do not think my love of grits, a bowl every morning, makes me Southern. Although I was born in Southern California and partially reared in Southern Wisconsin, I consider myself a full blown Mississippian. Along with keeping my grits to myself, I also speak without care of accent. The fact that I can tell you how to get from Memphis to the Coast without using the interstate or Google says I am from Mississippi.
