“Black” I took a look in their little “Black Book” and what did I see? That we’re just a bunch of “Black Sheep” in the dictionary “Black balled” into believing that evil is dark, Mis-educating our children, leaving mental “Black Marks” On this “Black Friday” I really must say, This book should be on the “Black Market”….revised, Today! To “Blacken” a people with such negative words, Is mental “Blackballing”, but i don’t mind a “Blackbird” Look in the “Black Book” at how they describe their race Anything “Blackened” is attributed to your “Black Face” Educationally “Blackmailed”, dispensing “Black Bile” , Hearing bad “Black” words so long, some accept it in style Caucasian descriptions, giving us a “Black Eye” , And they say a “Black Panther” is a militant guy “Black Art” is witchcraft, “Black Leg” a disease , A “Black Fellow” is an Aborigine….overseas Do you live in the “Black Belt”? deep down in the southeast? Or have you seen “Black Disease”? I...

Dear Big Brother Royal Dog Lance, I know that his letter may come as a surprise to you, but you’ve been on my mind a lot lately brother. Lately I’ve been reflecting back on my life, (the people, places, experiences), and what they meant. “What was I supposed to learn from it?”. Now, walking into this new transition of my life, I keep praying for guidance. I’m more of a visual learner; I need to see it. And often through thoughs prayers, your name always got thrown into the mix of answers. “Lance Sanders”. I couldn’t figure out why. But having kept up with your social media feeds, and taking a quick once over, I NOW know why. I can only speak on the time since we’ve met. The club Nightlife & Spice Street parties lol. Cooling at the lake house. Attempting to hoop at UNC…”The Rebounder”.😂. I also remember the night I was working the door at a party and LOST IT! When we got back to your crib after, you tol...

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!! 😂😂. If were not for the great luxury of Wi-Fi , I would've had no line of communication with the outside world. So I sat there, on the edge of the bed. 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...

...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...

After hearing about the Philando Castile verdict, and given the current state that the United States is in, I was confused. Is this what really had come too? How has the African-American community fallen so low, as to be BLATANTLY MURDERED ON-CAMERA , and the killer still walk away? Where has the fight gone!? Baffled and confused myself, I went deep into prayer. I wanted some answers and with no solid black leadership to turn to, there was only one source I could think of. God. Now, this entry may be a little longer than most, but there’s some things that need to be said. HIS response to my question …..???? Float with me on this. “Founded in 1866, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for blacks.” The path to my answer sent me directly to my bible. Jesus was the subject, the cru...
