Harry R. Jackson, Jr. America’s racial composition is changing rapidly. In 2012, the Census Bureau predicted that whites would no longer be the majority group by 2043. This trend is already reshaping many states: during the 2000’s, California joined Texas, Hawaii and New Mexico as a state without a majority racial or ethnic group. These demographic […] Continue reading →

Thirty-four percent of the nearly 2,000 people polled online said they believed Hollywood has a general problem […] Continue reading →
Neil McCabe, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker dominates a crowded field of GOP White House contenders with 24 percent of Republicans, but former first lady Hillary R. Clinton shows general election strength head-to-head against Walker and others, according to a Feb. 12-`13 Townhall/Gravis poll of 969 registered Iowa voters.

The Mexican-American studies curriculum offered in Tucson, Ariz., public schools in years past has been described by at least two federal judges as a program that promotes resentment against whites. As a result of the ruling, education officials passed a law in 2010 banning such lessons. In 2013, however, reports indicate the city’s school board […] Continue reading →
Petitioner doubles down despite company debunking racist accusations. Radical leftist racial hysteria has reached new heights. Yesterday, an enraged Internet activist launched a Change.org petition calling out retailer Target for daring to use a white child to model their clothing line associated with the 2014 adaptation of the film Annie, whose lead character is now […] Continue reading →
Julian Young, In elementary school, I was labeled a low achiever. My teachers constantly advocated to my father about holding me back a grade and even worse, I was placed on Ritalin and different medications to address my behavior and in an attempt to treat some of my disengagement with school overall. It’s true, I struggled […] Continue reading → Mike Adams, Earlier this semester, the UNC-Wilmington African American Center hosted a panel discussion on the Ferguson race riots. A student of mine noticed that none of the panel participants actually visited Ferguson. Given that I interviewed protestors on site in Ferguson in August, the student wanted to know why I was excluded from the […] Continue reading → Kevin Glass, Sen. Rand Paul is perhaps the Republican politician most attempting to create positive change out of the tragedy that occurred in Ferguson, Missouri. He has consistently made the case that it is government dysfunction and mismanagement that created the backdrop for the sense of injustice in the St. Louis suburb. In an op-ed […] Continue reading → President Barack Obama has turned off large parts of America through radicalism, incompetence and political ineptness. As my friend Barry Casselman argues, “Obama has the worst political tin ear I’ve seen at that level. (I realize he thinks he is bringing out his base vote). But he’s almost daring most Americans to turn against him.” […] Continue reading → Memphis Flyer – by Toby Sells The beatings of three people in a Kroger parking lot Saturday night will not be investigated as a hate crime, according to police officials. Memphis Police Department director Toney Armstrong said he’s had lots of calls asking how the investigation would proceed but said there is “not sufficient enough […] Continue reading → John Ransom There’s good news folks. Obama finally has an employment policy that works. Apparently, if you cross the border from Mexico illegally, the chances of you finding and keeping a job rise considerably. At least in California. “Immigrants comprise more than one-third of California’s labor force (35%),” writes the California Immigrant Policy Center wrote […] Continue reading → Rates of adult obesity increased in six U.S. states and fell in none last year, and in more states than ever - 20 - at least 30% of adults are obese, according to an analysis released on Thursday. The conclusions were reported by the Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and […] Continue reading → Neel Kashkari is running a different kind of Republican campaign. He spent one week over the summer living as a homeless person to bring attention to poverty. He visited an African American church frequented by Democratic politicians to speak with congregants. He marched in a gay pride parade. These may not be on the bucket […] Continue reading →
John Ransom Last week I wrote about my sympathies with the black community, especially the black male community, that has been and remains under siege in an America. Both political parties seem destined to misunderstand the historic wrongs committed in the African American community - especially those wrongs done to the black male. On the […] Continue reading →
Armstrong Williams During the first week of June, the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) received a generous $25 million donation from conservative/libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch. At a time when historically black colleges and universities are struggling to obtain funding for hopeful African Americans students, you would think that the UNCF and other prominent […] Continue reading → John Ransom As Obama kicks off his “You’re Too Stupid to Understand” campaign tour, I’d like to make the following observation as a public service reminder: It’s not that Obama started believing his press clippings; it’s that Obama never for a moment doubted his press clippings. Generally, buying into the fables that the press tells […] Continue reading →
