U.S. Women World Cup Team Makes Less Than Males!

U.S. Women's Soccer Team makes far less than their male counterparts.

Random musings...

The U.S. Women's Soccer Team celebrates their amazing victory against Japan in the FIFA Women's World Cup. The team won the week. They are automatically household names.

Sunday's game was watched on Fox by over 25 million viewers.

The team will celebrate in New York today. There will be a hero's celebration in New York after they petitioned for the city for a tinker take parade. Bill de Blasio was willing and even happy to do so.

They already gotten endorsements from national brands.

Carli Lloyd is the hero of the year.

They have inspired women to get involved in sports.

They gotten a call from President Barack Obama.

But did you know that for all their efforts, they only make $2 million and they have to split it equally.

That means that they could walk home with up to $6,000 up to $30,000 respectively.

This is pathetic.

There are calls for lawmakers to pressure FIFA to advocate more reasonable payment to the players.

Barack Obama Joins Twitter!

@POTUS 

It seems like the curtain is pulled over again. President Barack Obama jumps onto Twitter. So all that coming from the official Barack Obama Twitter and Facebook accounts were done by his staffers.

Even the signed by "B.O." It was done by staffers.

So who thought he had the time to jump onto Twitter?

The Secret Service clears the way for the president to create an account. Of course, he introduces himself to the Twitter world.

Hello, Twitter! It's Barack. Really! Six years in, they're finally giving me my own account.

— President Obama (@POTUS) May 18, 2015

I mean when he has he ever been able to promoting himself?

Who was sending those mailers, email shouts and videos? I thought it was done by him.

Do you actually believe that?

Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States is a very busy guy. I mean he running a country of 322 million people. He controls the nation's military. He is the leader of the free world. He had to be a father 24/7, a husband, a man who has to promote a vision for the country.

Despite his critics attacking him constantly over the most trivial things, Barack manages to brush off the noise and keep it moving forward.

He signs legislation into law. Why would I believe that he jumps onto Twitter and post "I am eating cereal and watching Sportscenter" on the social media?

He doesn't get enough time to jump onto the social media. With all the things going on. I mean the president works 24/7 and doesn't really get a break.

So what did the president do when he was on Twitter?

He tells the public that he made an executive order on police requesting military style weaponry.

The president believes that the police using military arsenal gives communities a sense of distrust towards them.

He traveled to Camden, NJ to talk about the need for police reform, transportation reform (in wake of neighboring Philadelphia and the tragic train crash) and empowerment.

Soon we will address the racist and threaten messages sent to the president.

NC Forward Together / Saving OurSelves Voting Rights Rally

March 11th, 2014 - Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II and the Forward Together Movement welcomes the S.O.S. Coalition in Raleigh as its Caravan for Democracy makes its way from Selma, Ala. to Washington DC, leaving 49 years almost to the day after civil rights leaders were beaten for daring to organize for voting rights in the Jim Crow South. Many of the assembled carry signs that memorialize the efforts and sacrifices made at Bloody Sunday in March 1965, sacrifices that spurred Congress to act on the mass disenfranchisement of African Americans by passing the Voting Rights Act later that summer.
