However shocking to the conscience his conduct in office, Trump is uniquely American and required decades to create. His success speaks to years of white identity and race card politics by the Republicans, and a legalized corruption scheme allowing unlimited financial influence - anonymous and unaccountable - to infest the body politic.

“If there is a major illness among African American people it is that we unceasingly honor and utilize our culture less. All great nations and people do the opposite.”
Our late, great ancestor, Dr. Asa G. Hilliard’s book, The Maroon Within Us, once again reminds us of a major problem that we, as African people…
