Wars are nothing more than legitimized, government-sanctioned—mass murder. Thus, the very expression, ‘war on terror’ is an insane contradiction in terms. Continue reading →

It is through boundless tears of enormous sorrow and simultaneously, with a renewed sense of determination that my column is written today. My sisters and brothers, another people’s warrior has transitioned on to be nestled by the spirit of our precious Mother Earth in her strong, gentle and welcoming bosom. Continue reading →

Will the United States ever genuinely change its bloody and hypocritical ways at home and abroad? Continue reading →

Perhaps the biggest single lie perpetrated upon everyday ordinary people of all colors in the United States is that the corporate owned, symbiotically-joined, Democrat and Republican parties genuinely represent them, their needs, interests, hopes, and aspirations. Continue reading →

The corporate owned government of the United States, now headed by President Barack Obama, has under the rubric of waging a so-called war against ‘terrorism,’ launched a perpetual terrorist war against the liberties and human rights of everyday Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people in this nation and around the world. The U.S. police state is no longer merely coming, it has arrived. Continue reading →

What does being a Black ‘American’ really mean? More to the point, what does it mean today in terms of political consciousness, and most especially black revolutionary political consciousness? A “reexamination” of where Black America collectively stands today in this regard is very much in order. Continue reading →

In reality, the United States is a one party corporatist political state. This political system is utterly corrupt, amoral, and illegitimate. Nothing, absolutely nothing, has recently so blatantly exemplified this more profoundly than the scripted mockery of democracy embodied by the charade of both the Democrat and Republican 2012 national conventions. Continue reading →

Ordinary Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow women and men in this nation, and throughout Mother Earth, have been systematically and systemically horribly betrayed by a cynical, callous, selfish, and blood sucking group of persons who place prestige, wealth, and personal power above the collective needs and human rights of everyday people. Continue reading →

As bloody U.S. wars and/or militarization, driven by the insatiable greed of the corporate/military elite, rage on in Afghanistan, Pakistan, the ‘Middle East,’ Africa, and elsewhere on this precious planet of Mother Earth, here at home, police-state stealth, government disinformation, de facto political suppression, corporate-media malfeasance, and increasing economic austerity represent the unhappy realities being endured by the vast majority of everyday Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people inside this nation. Continue reading →

The lies, subterfuge, deliberately perpetuated ignorance, joblessness, under-employment, homelessness, corporate domination, and perpetual wars being consistently waged by the corporate-owned Democrat and Republican parties against the everyday Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people of the United States, and throughout Mother Earth, is both untenable and utterly unacceptable. Continue reading →

How bitterly ironic that this nation found itself turning to Barack Obama—the war mongering predator drone missile, ‘kill list’ U.S. president—for comfort and condolences, in the wake of the horrible killings at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. Continue reading →

The unthinkable and tragic betrayal by much of Black America’s intelligentsia in their blind support for the war mongering Barack Obama in this 21st century, will forever be the historical measuring rod of indictment, in the words of Malcolm X (el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz), which defines “those who want[ed] freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who want[ed] to continue the system of exploitation.” There is not, nor was there ever, any in-between in this matter. Continue reading →

Subterfuge, which is the strategy of deception and deceit, is now the very basis of and for the policies and practices of the corporate-owned U.S. crime syndicate, known as this nation’s government. Nothing, absolutely nothing, that this government and its servile puppet—the corporate-stream ‘news’ media disseminates—can or should be wholly believed. Continue reading →

It is not Africa, Asia, or Europe that have died in the 21st century. It is the Empire of the United States that is dying and decaying. Continue reading →

The truth is that at this moment in this the 21st century, the vast majority of everyday ordinary Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people in the United States are de facto slaves. That’s right—slaves. Continue reading →

You are Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow. You are female and male. Most of all however, are in your late teens, your twenties, or your thirties; and you yearn for a nation and a world that is based firmly upon a genuine and active respect for economic, political, and social fair-play and human rights throughout Mother Earth. And even though you face the arrogance, cynicism, stealth, wrath, and brutality of an entrenched and greedy self-legitimized corporate syndicate known as ‘the United States government,’ you know in your hearts and minds that if you do not act and stand firm, the peoples of this nation and of this entire precious planet will be doomed. You are our younger sisters and brothers of the 21st century—and you are strong, determined, and beautiful. Continue reading →

Everyday ordinary Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people of the United States are living under the yoke of a self-legitimized organized corporate/military crime syndicate known as the government. Continue reading →

The women and men of this nation and throughout Mother Earth are engaged, like it or not, in a life and death struggle against a relatively tiny but powerful elite whose objective is to keep us perpetually in economic and political servitude. In this struggle, there can be “no impartial observers” for the “battlefront” truly is “everywhere.” Continue reading →

Have you ever wondered from where the fallacious notion of the-lesser-of-the evils derives? Indeed, why must a political system be rooted in evil at all, whether that evil be perceived as more evil or less evil? Continue reading →

As the U.S. Empire unravels, its viciousness at home and abroad will increase expedientially. Systemic contradictions and the concomitant sham of ‘democracy’ as embodied by the corporate owned Democratic and Republican parties will become ever more obvious. Continue reading →

As everyday ordinary Black, White, Brown, Red, and Yellow people in the United States are painfully beginning to realize, no entity, no bank, and no nation that is tied in to this global economy, based upon systemic fraud and concomitant greed, is too big to fail. Indeed, to the contrary, failure is ultimately inevitable. But the brunt of such ‘failures’ are borne on the backs of ordinary everyday men, women, and children, be it in this nation or elsewhere. Continue reading →

Recently, Mr. ‘Hope And Change’ Barack Obama (also known as the predator-drone-missile president), officially launched his corporate reelection campaign by shamelessly touting his role in the extra-judicial, U.S. government’s official version, of the assassination of Osama Bin Laden. Continue reading →

The United States corporate government today has become what Frantz Fanon, over five decades earlier, accurately described, as a “monster,” permeated with “taints, sickness, and inhumanity.” Its’ much touted ‘democracy’ is in reality the very height of hypocrisy both inside this nation and abroad.
