Send Trump Back, Because White Supremacy Will Kill Us All
Executive Editor
The endgame of white supremacy is genocide. Of the ten stages of genocide, the U.S. has arguably reached the seventh (preparation), eighth (persecution) and tenth (denial) stages through the Trump policy against migrants, refugees and asylum seekers.
America is at a crossroads. It must choose whether to strive to become a truly multiracial democracy, or to plunge down the current trajectory towards a…

No More Mary Turners
Editorial Board
Like the white men who lynched Mary Turner, our President ‘takes exception to her remarks as well as her attitude.’ Without accusing Mr. Trump of lynching, one can accuse Mr. Trump of being a racist and hostile to Black women. Ilhan Omar isn’t the first he went after, and she won’t be the last.
Mary Turner was lynched on May 19. 1918 because she dared raise her voice. Her husband, Hayes Turner, was among 13 people lynched in two weeks…

We the People: Flaunting the Power to Be Cruel and Abusive
Editorial Board
With money comes beautiful women that both Epstein and Trump can abuse while federal prosecutors, lawyers, tabloid publishers, and politicians (admirers of the great men) whisk away any pesky women or girls who object to being treated as another purchase in the lifestyle of the rich and famous.
I was a little mystified at how benignly he responded to my questions about his business activities. Now, when I look at my meticulous notes, I…

When Autocrats Speak – Solidarity America
Columnist
The nation is now run by the few and democracy, what's left of it, is slowly circling the drain. Trump is the symptom, not the cause, but he is dangerous to the concept of democracy, since he would rule like an autocrat if he were able. A dictionary definition of autocrat is “ruler who has absolute power,” but the second definition describes Trump's take on business and government, as well as the society at large: “someone who insists on complete obedience from others; an imperious or domineering person.”
In an authoritarian nation when an autocrat publicly denounces an individual who might have offended the autocrat or his government, the offending individual may not be…

Democrats Aid Trump Reelection
Columnist
The Democrats are seemingly caught in a cycle of self-immolation with their core internal policy disagreements that are likely to wipe out their midterm gains and render them a minor Party. Meanwhile, the Republicans remain in lockstep behind Trump and have a national get-out-the-vote (GOTV) strategy they are already implementing.
Trump, with the able assistance of Democrats, is about to cruise to reelection in 2020 along with Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and the rest of his…

Lord have mercy! What has the past several days wrought?! Some weeks are made for the history books! There is no doubt that history will look…

Marcus Garvey Course on African Philosophy – Worrill’s World
Columnist
One must never stop reading. Read everything that you can read, that is of standard knowledge. Don’t waste time reading trashy literature. The idea is that personal experience is not enough for a human to get all the useful knowledge of life, because the individual life it too short, so we must feed on the experience of others.
As we prepare to celebrate the 132nd birthday of Marcus Garvey on august 17th, let us begin to review some of his ideas. It is quite…
