RAISING ARIZONA

The continual persecution and exploitation of immigrants continues to grow in the United States of America. Anti-immigrant laws like Arizona’s SB1070 and national initiatives like Secure Communities and the 287(g) program have set this country back 60 years to a civil rights crisis. Check out this song and video of Arizona Rappers that are protesting the immigration bill.

Haitians react to televangelist Pat Robertson’s ‘devil pact’ remarks

According to 2 Peter 2 in the King James  Bible

---

1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction

Pat Robertson there is nothing true about you, and these 2 videos show you for the racist you are

Good bye Mr. Kennedy

We lost a giant yesterday, if there is to be a legacy to the life of Ted Kennedy it would be to pass the health care bill

Racist accusing others of Racism

What is a racist? A person that accuses a black person of being a Nazi, plain and simple. Adolf Hitler was the biggest champion of racism in the twentieth century. He exterminated six million Jews because he believed they were an inferior race. He also believed that Asians and Negroes were “inferior” to the White race (source) The republic party are going out of thier way to interrupt townhall meeting and call Obama a Nazi with the hopes that opened minded whites will narrow their view of the world and see things their way. This action is not from a group of outsiders but from the  republican party.  Last year  Karl Rove made the statement “ Obama reminds him of “the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.” Honestly how many blacks can afford or are even allowed in a country club? only a few, why? because people like Karl Rove don’t want them in their country club

But instead of having a debate about health care we see pundits paid by the health care agency stirring up crowds who have more of an issue with Obama’s race than health care policy’s they probably need

who is this crowd? the same racist that have always occupied this country

Then, protesting intergration

Racist calling historical victims of racism, racist how sad and how un American

Shell to Pay $15.5 Million to Settle Nigerian Case

Ken Saro-Wiwa Jr. sued Royal Dutch Shell, saying it had culpability in his father’s death.

NEW YORK, June 18 (Reuters) – Royal Dutch Shell’s cash payment of $15.5 million — roughly four hours of its 2008 profits — to settle a human rights case in Nigeria may not be enough to change Big Oil’s policies in the developing world.

A better incentive may be a desire to avoid the high legal costs and the bad publicity from the 13-year case accusing Shell of abuses in the Niger Delta region read more

The settlement, announced late Monday, came days before the start of a trial in New York that was expected to reveal extensive details of Shell’s activities in the Niger Delta.  read more

Bringing What He Loves

“I Bring What I Love” doesn’t simply run through the chronology of Youssou. N’Dour’s life. Instead, the movie finds the musician at a crisis moment in his career. About 10 years ago, the singer, known for secular pop songs, decided he wanted to explore his Islamic faith in his music. So he recorded the album “Egypt,” which featured such tracks as “Allah” and “Touba—Daru Salaam.” (Touba is the name of a holy city in Senegal.) click here for entire article Putting Faith in His Music

I don’t always agree with M.E.D. but his views are good for the country, and support and appreciate his bravery

Although Michael Eric Dyson endorsed Mr. Obama he verbalizes what many Black folks are thinking,  Obama what’s your position on Black issues?
