Say what? These people at Faux News are the reason why race relations are so tense today. America is not racially pure, never was, never will. Wake up, racists and nationalists, you are outnumbered!!!

S.C. Serial Killer is Dead
Suspected Serial Killer Shot Dead
By MITCH WEISS
GAFFNEY, S.C. (July 7) -- People terrorized by a serial killer who shot five people to death in their small community were relieved after police said they killed the man responsible. But with his death, an answer to the bloody spree remains unknown.
"I still want to know why he did it," said truck driver Matt Brown, 55, of Gaffney. "Why he killed so many innocent people. I guess we'll never know."
I'm glad that this nightmare end. May the victims rest in peace.

Black on Black Crime
Black on Black CrimeJune 28, 2009
I wrote this poem after seeing another story about a black man being shot by police. While the outrage was justified I wondered why we don’t see the same level of outrage when one young black man kills another.
While police shootings and brutality are not the isolated incidents many try to make them out to be there is no comparison when it comes to the fact that black on black crime takes far more young black lives.
Until we ourselves show that we care about this issue there will be no way to stop it.
BLACK ON BLACK
We march when the cops beat us
We cry when our young men are attacked
But where is the outrage
When the attacker is black
Where are the “Civil Rights Leaders”
Where is the black press
When we are the causeo
f a sad and tragic death
Where are the bloggers
When it is us that sow the pain
Where are they at
When some us don’t act sane
Maybe the truth is
We just don’t care
Maybe it’s okay for us to kill each other
But a white cop better not dare

Michael Jackson - Remember The Time
One of Michael Jackson's best video performance, Remember the Time 1991.
This is my favorite video.
Michael Jackson, The King of Pop R.I.P. 1958-2009
The King of Pop Music Michael Jackson has died at age 50. According to reports, the pop legend suffered a cardiac arrest this afternoon and medics were unable to revive him. A TMZ source says Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived, while the Times says he was in a deep coma upon arrival.
Michael Joseph Jackson was an American recording artist, entertainer, and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he debuted on the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop" in subsequent years, five of his solo studio albums are among the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Thriller (1982), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995).
In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and Thriller—credited for transforming the music video into an art form and a promotional tool—helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s.
With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists such as Usher, Justin Timberlake, MC Hammer, etc.
REST IN PEACE, MICHAEL JACKSON. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED.

Nixon's hatred for Interracial Babies- From Racialicious' Latoyia Peterson
Thanks, Racialicious!
On Jan. 23, 1973, when the Supreme Court struck down laws criminalizing abortion in Roe v. Wade, President Richard M. Nixon made no public statement. But privately, newly released tapes reveal, he expressed ambivalence.
Nixon worried that greater access to abortions would foster “permissiveness,” and said that “it breaks the family.” But he also saw a need for abortion in some cases — like interracial pregnancies, he said.
“There are times when an abortion is necessary. I know that. When you have a black and a white,” he told an aide, before adding, “Or a rape.”
—”From Nixon Tapes, Ambivalence Over Abortion, Not Watergate,” The New York Times, June 23, 2009
________________________________________
I’m not surprised at all at Nixon’s anti-interracial(Black man and White woman)remark. That’s a sentiment prominant Whites have held for centuries. Remember the incident in Maine three years ago when Katelyn Kampf’s parents abducted her and tried to force her to abort her biracial child. Or the racist/sexist remark by a Michigan sheriff nearly 20 years ago when he said that he was against all abortions except when it involved a Black man and a White woman.
These people are just evil and racist. Unfortunately, attitudes still exist to this day.

Macon d's excellent article
Once again, Macon d's on to something. Something this society refuses to address now with this country increasinginly multiracial and multicultural and now that Barack Obama is president. I think we need to take some time to think about this country and how it was shaped and how past actions shaped the nation that it is today.
