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 .

Calling Messiah - Democratic Party Paging

An offline conversation with a buddy inspired me to update my blog today.   During the course of the conversation it was mentioned there is no one in the Democratic Party to fix all Trump and GOP are doing.   I quickly asked, why are we looking for one person?   The answer is not one person it is all of us.   We must all work to correct the governing of the GOP and Trump administration. We must not look for a messiah but look within for the leader.   We must cultivate and elect to local/state offices those who will govern with the public good in mind.   Leaders who will listen to the people whom they have been elected to serve.   We must create plans of governing (see ALEC) as do corporations.   We must also cultivate and elect to Congress those who understand public service.   My members of Congress have forgotten they represent Mississippi.   They think they serve Trump and the GOP.   The GOP has made no secret of the plans to enrich corporations at the expense of the poor a

Red Pill Activation

Every so often I throw a red pill into a TL to see the bots and the operatives at work.   In all of the discussion about collusion with Russia during the 2016 elections, Bernie has been remarkably quiet.   He will say something when pressed but overall he isn’t concerned about the matter.   Why? Collusion with a nation against whom we have sanctions is a very treasonous matter. I am not saying Bernie directly colluded with Russia for the failure of our democracy in the USA.   I am saying there were some running his campaign who had ties to Russia.   I do know if I tweet a few keys words to legitimate people regarding Bernie, I get foreign bots in my DMs.   I am not saying all Bernie Bros are bots.   I’ve met them offline.   They sincerely believe a White man is the solution for all of the ills of the USA.   Maybe they are correct, only the creators can correct what they have done.   However, I continue to see White men make people of color, especially Black people, and women a
