I tweeted out an article today discussing the discrepancies between white and black voters mail in ballots being rejected in North Carolina. Mind you, I wasn't in the least surprised to hear that this is going on. But it got me thinking. The election is right around the corner. Things are starting to heat up as …

I love movies. Adore them. One of the saddest things for me about COVID — among the unnecessary luxuries that have become its casualties — is the fact that I can no longer visit the theater comfortably. I mean, I could. But I’m not going to. My love for cinema does not outweigh my COVID …
The world found out that Chadwick Boseman died last Friday evening. I was in a funk that day. A real, deep, funky funk. I didn’t even blog last week, which is very unusual for me. But I literally had nothing good to say. I was without wit, humor, disgust, irritation. There was nothing. My objectivity …

I've been staying away from social media for some weeks — actually, months — now. Days will go by and I don't click on Instagram or post on Twitter beyond my business accounts. It's too disturbing. It's one thing to know how screwed up the world can be on issues like racism and human dignity …

So, Nick Cannon got fired from his long-running comedy improv show Wild ‘N Out. He said some things viewed as anti-Semitic on a recent episode of his podcast and YouTube show Cannon's Class. He denies it, of course, and despite a lengthy social media apology to the Jewish community and a fervent pledge to educate …
So, Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.) is telling it like it is. The co-owner of WNBA team Atlanta Dream doesn’t want her players wearing jerseys that state support for Black Lives Matter, and she’s firm on that. I feel so bad for the Dream players. It’s one thing to know that white people in the abstract …
