What's Happening To Our Black Men?

For the past few days, single mothers has been a topic that i’ve been hearing a lot about. It sparked my interest when I saw a tweet about it. The tweet was about a predominantly black youth department where 80% of the kids didn’t have a father present. It went on to ask “Why men traditionally gotta be awful?”, in which I replied, “If God hadn’t put Joseph into place, Mary would have been a single mother”. After doing a brief search of single black mothers, I found that over 72% of black children are born to single mothers. Immediately after reading that, my mind went back to the Amerikkka's Attack on the Black Community  post; Jesus more specifically. Remember how I explained how I thought the devil is operating in the United States Government?? Well… Float with me on this. We aren’t told much about Joseph in the scriptures, but we know that he was worthy enough to be handpicked to father the Son of God. It’s also interesting to note that he wasn’t mentioned until the tim...

Trust The Process

Yesterday was a pretty interesting day. I was having a very...rough morning. I woke up thinking about how productive my day was going to go. I hadn’t worked in 2 weeks and I had a few cars lined up to detail. So, I got up and opened the blinds, per usual. But despite my productive mindset, all I saw was rain dripping down the window. Rain = No detailing. No detailing = No production….. You get where I'm going with this right? Lol. Now to further complicate things, my phone was off!! 😂😂.

Netflix was on the screen but I don't know if anything was playing. I just sat there, deep in thought. After a few hours of just sitting there nonchalantly floating away smh, my phone rang. Mind you, my phone was off. Good ole Facebook 😂! It was my brother. --BACKSTORY-- . Me and my brother don't call eac...

The Roaring 20s - Trump's Chicago

...in the wake of what's happening in #chicago ...ima drop this today There was an article published by The Courier-Times newspaper back in May that caught my attention. It was on the front page of the “Living in Person” section, with the headline: “Students Experience Roaring 20s”. Local homeschoolers had put on show bringing the 1920s “back to life”. Also on the front page, was a picture of a group of kids; all “dressed to the nines as flappers and mobsters.” Machine Gun Kelly, Al Capone, Eliot Ness and Coco Chanel, just to name a few. The article begins by stating that: “It was the era of gangsters, Prohibition, and all that glitters.” It then goes on to tell us about the invention of the juicer. Which they even demonstrated by making lemonade. The students were taught about the art deco style, choosing a “celebrity” of the era and creating their own art pieces. The program ended with a feast from a variety of foods popular in that decade...peanut butter cups, chow mein, C...
