France News 24, Al Jazeera, Al Aribiya, Der Speigel, CBC News, CTV News, The Local Sweden, SBS News, and so many more. US News seems to be the worst in actually educating it’s viewers. With the international sources you can sometimes detect their bias but at least present information in a somewhat factual manner that…

This reminds me of the Quinn debate from “The Great Debaters”.

The abridged quote from Tacitus. “They create desolation and call it peace”

Apparently, you’ve never seen “The Spook Who Sat By The Door”.

Here is a good documentary discussing long standing racism in Boston and how they absolutely lost their minds when they tried to integrate their schools in the 1970s. YES 1970s nearly twenty years after Brown vs Board of Education.

I appreciate her commitment to actually sending letters. Like that’s some old school, “I’m gonna put a stamp on it” racism that you rarely see anymore.

I hear what you’re saying but then I look at Dick Cheney. He’s 76 and has had 5 heart attacks and a transplant and his doctor said he could easily live another 10 years....

NO. Katrina was a Bush Disaster before FEMA got involved by denying the residents of the Gulf Coast, their ability to defend and prepare for the storm with their National Guard.

First mistake - Invading Iraq and having to call up the National Guard, and Reserves. The National Guard’s role is to provide disaster…

Still don’t miss him in any capacity. To go from being in Baghdad to then a year later being sent to NOLA for Katrina. It was a total mindfuck for some of us because we couldn’t believe that a US city; US citizens were being treated that way and completely failed by their state, local, and federal government.... all…

I agree with the sentiment but the data I’ve reviewed doesn’t support that. Based on when racial data was first taken for voting the last time the turnout was as high as it was for 2008/2012 was 1964. In between that African-American voting numbers never was as high as they were recently percentage wise. I do agree on…

I think the point of the article is that the nation didn’t fail the test of character. It behaved in a manner that people of color always expected. Given an opportunity to do the right thing, the nation doesn’t and usually has to be dragged and beaten until it does. Faced with two main choices; a lot of people just…

Alveda King has no credibility and is only in the limelight because she is Dr. King’s niece. Ignore the fact that Corretta Scott King didn’t support her publicly and that most of her public writings and statements are a complete contradiction to what Dr. King wrote and what his family has stated... you know the people…

Bernie Sanders hasn’t been a plus one since he got hauled off by Chicago PD back with his fellow SNCC and CORE members.

He’s a real low level version of Joan Trumpauer Mulholland and always welcome at the BBQ. You know he’s got those good ole Uncle dance moves. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_Trumpauer_Mulholland

Where is GUY? Seriously. It’s the glue that holds all of the New Jack movement together. WE NEED A GUY BIOPIC!

The other upside is school choice can lead to more support for religious schools! Remind your conservative friends that this is GREAT because it means we can have more public funds going to support Islamic Schools in America! Yay! Or Satanist, Scientologist, etc all with your tax dollars going to support it :)

It wasn’t plantation mentality when African-Americans voted for Republicans for nearly 100 years. Then it was having free will and exercising the right to vote but ever since Goldwater it’s a victimology.

I envision the meeting took place like this:

YAAS!

Love your icon :) Big Hiatus Kaiyote fan!

I don’t know man. NSPD51 is pretty much the ultimate for me.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_and_Homeland_Security_Presidential_Directive

This is tragic but this city is literally the poster child for rust belt failure. No jobs. High cancer rates. High pollution. Massive drug and crime problems. High teenage pregnancy and much more. This is the type of city that is already dead but they haven’t realized it yet.
