Book of the Day "God: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction"

God is... Merciful? Just? Compassionate? In fact the Bible lays out God's primary qualities clearly: He's jealous, petty, unforgiving, bloodthirsty, vindictive - and worse! Originally conceived as a joint presentation between influential thinker and best-selling author Richard Dawkins and former evangelical preacher Dan Barker, this unique book provides an investigation into what may be the most unpleasant character in all fiction. Barker combs through both the Old and New Testaments (as well as 13 different editions of the "Good Book"), presenting powerful evidence for why Scripture shouldn't govern our everyday lives. This witty, well-researched book suggests that we should move past the Bible and clear a path to a kinder and more thoughtful world.

Black Cop Sues After Being Shot by White Cop

Black Police Officer Sues City of St.Louis After Being Shot By Another Cop I guess pigs will be pigs... I always wondered how black cops can feel comfortable doing the white man's dirty work everyday. For black police officer Milton Green, this #WakeUp call was loud and clear! Green was shot while off duty by a fellow officer and is suing the city, alleging the department has not supported him since the June 2017 incident. Milton Green was shot by a cop outside his home in the city’s North Pointe neighborhood. The shooting occurred while officers were searching for suspects of a stolen vehicle who fled the car and allegedly ran near Green’s home. Green says when officers approached, he identified himself as a policeman but was immediately shot by Officer Christopher Tanner. He is now suing Tanner and the city of St. Louis, as Green believes he would have been treated differently at the time of the shooting and the afte...

Her Real Name is Marijuana and She Just Earned a Ph.d with a Dissertation on Black Names

Marijuana Pepsi Vandyck is now a Ph.d and no, she doesn’t smoke the good stuff. She earned her Ph.D. last month after years of trying to prove herself despite her name. “People make such a big deal out of it, I couldn’t get away from it,” Vandyck said. Her dissertation titled, “ Black names in white classrooms: Teacher behaviors and student perceptions, ” was inspired by her personal experience as a black student with such an uncommon name. Marijuana also interviewed students during her undergrad “about the effect of their distinctly black names on their treatment by teachers and on their academic achievement.” Many told her how teachers would interrupt attendance to ask them about their unique names. Marijuana also once challenged a professor who did that to her at Whitewater, saying," Why are you asking me? My name is Marijuana, thank you. ” Still, Marijuana said she has no...

FREE Audio Book of the Day "How Not to Get Shot: And Other Advice from White People"

"White people are always giving out 'helpful' advice after black people get shot by police, such as: ' Comply with the police and you won't get shot.

NC Pool Bans Dreadlocks and Weaves

A rec center in North Carolina is facing much backlash after it placed a ban on dreadlocks and weaves. Covert racism, not so covert though... People on social media have called the center out... One person posted a photograph of the pool rules for the Outdoor Recreation Center in Wendell on Sunday. One rule says “no baggy pants, no dread-locks/weaves/extensions or revealing clothes will be permitted or you will be asked to leave.” Revealing clothes??? It's a fucking swimming pool!!!

More people on social media spoke out against the pool... “Is this really allowed in Wendell!!!” wrote Nikki Harris on the Wendell NC Community Connections Facebook group. “Definitely racial discrimination! Never will see me there!!” another user wrote. The punk ass pool owner claims that hair extensions are banned because they can get into pumping equipment, causi...

Book of the Day "What Truth Sounds Like"

What Truth Sounds Like exists at the tense intersection of the conflict between politics and prophecy – of whether we embrace political resolution or moral redemption to fix our fractured racial landscape. The future of race and democracy hang in the balance. In 1963, Attorney General Robert Kennedy sought out James Baldwin to explain the rage that threatened to engulf black America. Baldwin brought along some friends, including playwright Lorraine Hansberry, psychologist Kenneth Clark, and a valiant activist, Jerome Smith. It was Smith's relentless, unfiltered fury that set Kennedy on his heels, reducing him to sullen silence. Kennedy walked away from the nearly three-hour meeting angry - that the black folk assembled didn't understand politics, and that they weren't as easy to talk to as Martin Luther King. But especially that they were more interested in witness than policy. But Kennedy's anger quickly gave way to empathy, e...

Police Aim Gun at 4 Year Old For Stealing a Doll From a Dollar Store

Phoenix police hold a black family at gunpoint after their child allegedly stole a doll from a dollar store. A notice of claim was filed Thursday morning and it accuses police officers of battery, unlawful imprisonment, false arrest, infliction of emotional distress and violation of the family’s civil rights. According to the claim, Dravon Ames and Iesha Harper, who is five months pregnant, didn’t realize their 4-year-old took a doll from a Dollar Store until they were in the car. The family drove to an apartment building near by, where their babysitter lives. That’s when they say a police car pulled up behind them with “no sirens or lights.” “We’re talking about a little doll that’s worth maybe $5 and the horrors that came from the overreaction to that,” said former Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne, who is representing the family. That’s when the family claims an officer approached Ames, who was in the driver’s seat, pointed a...

Woman Begs Cops Not to Shoot Kneeling Black Man

An L.A. woman is being praised for filming police as they threatened a black man with their guns drawn while he knelt with his up. In the video, filmed in the city of Hawthorne, at least four officers can be seen pointing their guns at the man, who is kneeling on the sidewalk, facing away from the officers with his hands above his head.

Book of the Day "Letter to a Christian Nation"

"Forty-four percent of the American population is convinced that Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead sometime in the next 50 years," writes Sam Harris. "Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that its ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this, purely on the basis of religious dogma, should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency." In response to his award-winning best seller The End of Faith, Sam Harris received thousands of letters from Christians excoriating him for not believing in God. Letter to A Christian Nation is his courageous and controversial reply. Using rational argument, Harris offers a measured refutation of the beliefs that form the core of fundamentalist Christianity. Addressing current topics ranging from intelligent design and stem-cel...

Man Served 8 Years in Solitary for Reading This Book... 23 Years for Joyriding

Kenneth Oliver was freed Monday June 3, after serving 23 years of a life sentence for a joyriding case. 8 years of which he spent in solitary confinement for possessing a book written by Black Guerilla Family co-founder George Jackson! His attorneys say, "it’s unconscionable that he was set to die in prison for nonviolent crimes." Oliver, now 52, was given the life sentence at 29 under California’s strict “three strikes” sentencing law for repeat felons. Although the law was modified in 2012 to allow life sentences only when the third strike is for a serious or violent felony, Oliver was not eligible for a new sentence because he was found with a book called “ Blood In My Eye .” The state has now expunged Oliver's gang-affiliation record and paid him a $125,000 settlement for his time in solitary. “It’s almost impossible to believe that what happened to Ken happened here in California. You know, people think of this as an enlightened state an...

Book of the Day "White Rage: The Unspoken Truth of Our Racial Divide"

When black people get angry after an unarmed black person is murdered and broadcasts all over tv and the internet, white people ten to call these moments of "black rage." But is it black rage or white rage that is at work in these types of moments? Since 1865 and the passage of the 13th Amendment, every time African Americans have made advances towards full participation in this democracy, white reaction has fueled a deliberate and relentless rollback of their gains. The end of the Civil War and Reconstruction was greeted with the Black Codes and Jim Crow; the Supreme Court's landmark 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision was met with the shutting down of public schools throughout the South while taxpayer dollars financed segregated white private schools; the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965 triggered a coded but powerful response, the so-called Southern Strategy and the War on Drugs that disenfranchised millions of African Americans whi...

3 More Facts That Disprove the Bible

Once again I will preface this article by reminding you that it is not necessary to disprove a thing that has not met its own burden of proof. If the claims in the bible are true, these claims must be proven before belief in them is warranted. However per request from a subscriber, I have compiled 3 additional facts to continue to my article, 3 Facts That Disprove the Bible !!! Here goes... 1. Irrefutable DNA evidence that there were NEVER only two humans alive at any point in time. And likewise, there is zero support for a simultaneous genetic bottleneck of all animal species, including humans, about 4,000 years ago due to being restricted to a single wooden boat. 2. The bible claims that the sky is a solid shell — a firmament separating the "waters" of the sky from the waters of the earth. Only scientifically illiterate people believe this. 3. “The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to ...

Book of the Day "White Fragility: Why It's so Hard for White People to Talk About Racism"

"The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged and how these reactions maintain racial inequality." White Fragility is a "vital, necessary, and beautiful book," Michael Eric Dyson. Anti-racist educator Robin DiAngelo shines a light on white fragility and "allows us to understand racism as a practice not exclusive to "bad people." Referring to the, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and by behaviors including argumentation, silence, and other defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially. These behaviors, in turn, prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, the author examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.

New York Attorney General Letitia James, the first black woman to be elected to statewide office in New York, announced Wednesday that her office received a report alleging that a teacher at The Chapel School in Bronxville simulated a “slave auction” with black students in two fifth-grade social studies classes in March. “This type of problematic instruction won’t be tolerated here in New York,” Attorney General Letitia James said.

3 Facts That Disprove the Bible

First of all I would like to begin by reminding you that it is not necessary to disprove the bible. The bible is not to be considered as true until there is evidence that warrants its acceptance... Nonetheless, I have some evidence that disproves the bible anyway so here goes... 1. Jesus is said to have died at 33 years of age in the ear 30 AD. If this is true, it means that jesus was born in the year 3 BC. How can we be unsure of the dates of the most important figure in history??? If jesus was the son of god, he should be smart and powerful enough to leave an accurate proof of his life. 2. King Herod is claimed in the book of Matthew to have ordered the murder of all boys two years old and younger, causing Joseph and Mary to flee to Bethlehem where jesus was born. The problem with this claim in the bible is that it is not recorded anywhere in history. Ancient historians such as Josephus wrote two whole scrolls on King Her...
