If Lindsay Lohan was Tanisha Washington…

David Walker — Sat, 23 Oct 2010 13:24:45 +0000

Are you tired of the spectacle called Lindsay Lohan? 2007 DUI conviction, cocaine possession conviction, blatant violations of court orders and more appearances in front of judges than Bobby Brown, come on. If Lindsay Lohan was a Tanisha Washington we wouldn’t be hearing about her everyday because she would be locked up somewhere for an oddly excessive [...]

Will the Real Clarence Thomas Please Stand Up?

David Walker — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 17:08:07 +0000

In the very recent past, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas had the not so brilliant idea to call Anita Hill and ask her to reconsider her actions in the past that had a major impact on the confirmation process of Justice Thomas years ago. Virginia Thomas had the audacity to ask Anita [...]

Reggie Bush should have kept the Heisman Trophy

David Walker — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 17:17:27 +0000

A part of me feels like Reggie Bush took the high road when he decided to return the coveted Hesiman he earned for his on the field performance while attending USC. The other side of me feels like he should have carefully packed up the award and sent to someone he really trusts in a [...]

Sarah Palin the Pimp

David Walker — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 17:17:08 +0000

There is not one thing I would pay a hard earned dollar to hear come out of Sarah Palin’s mouth. Obviously, a few brilliant minds at CSU Stanislaus felt otherwise. Earlier this year they paid Palin $75,000 plus numerous expenses inclusive, but not limited to, first-class airfare for two and additional travel accommodations for others in her [...]

Is Obama a Muslim?

David Walker — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 21:14:15 +0000

Are you weary yet about all of the talk about whether President Barack Obama is a Muslim? You are witnessing the lengths at which some will go to cause any distraction possible to influence upcoming decisions in the voter’s booth. Uncertainty has always bred fear. In such a hypocritical place as the United States it is ironic [...]

Does the Black National Anthem Promote Separatism?

David Walker — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 04:25:36 +0000

Lift every voice and sing til’ earth and heaven ring, ring with the harmonies of liberty… Right about now in the song, especially blacks 40 and under start humming the words hoping no one around them is realizing there is no way you are going to even try the words to verses two and three. [...]

When the Victims are not White

David Walker — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 21:37:03 +0000

Last week Omar Thornton murdered eight people at his place of employment near Hartford, CT. He also killed himself. His simple reasoning, racism. As you have already witnessed, it was immediately national news. You obviously know, Omar was a black man and all of his victims were white. What you probably have not heard about, and is [...]

Obama: Style or Substance

David Walker — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 19:42:36 +0000

Right off the bat let’s make one thing clear, I support President Barack Obama. With that said, I have a simple question (actually a few). I wonder, will his legacy be one of style or substance? What do you feel he has done right? Where do you feel he really dropped the ball? Tavis Smiley, Dr. Cornel [...]

A War for Your Soul

David Walker — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 16:29:22 +0000

This video was produced in the early part of this year. It appears that this version was shared as an agenda item in a Birmingham, AL council meeting. Mayor Larry Langford deserves applause for his courage. The piece was created by Reginald Bullock. Something must be done to curb the violence and mayhem affecting black [...]

ACORN and Prostitution Bad, Haliburton and Gang Rape of a Teen Good

David Walker — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 20:50:10 +0000

Recently, our esteemed elected officials had to vote on legislation introduced by Al Franken (D-Minnesota) that would allow victims employed by companies that contract with the Department of Defense to sue instead of being forced into arbitration settlement hearings on cases of battery and rape. Franken introduced the Bill after learning about Jamie Leigh Jones’ [...]
