Glenn Beck Thinking Of Launching Own Cable Channel: NYT

A Glenn Beck Channel? The slogan will be, "All Crazy, All the Time!" This guy used to anger me, but I think I am at the point where I just feel sorry for him. Is there not anyone in his life that will tell him he needs help? It seems to me he is definitely suffering from some sort of mental illness, and the thing that makes it worse is there are people who listen to him! He is not alone in his crazy. There has to come a point where someone says to him he has to understand the end is not near and the people listening to him are not the smartest people in the world. But alas, no one will tell him that, because he is a money maker. It's sort of like those little dancing monkeys on a leash. Everyone knows the monkey is not being treated very well, but his little dance is too cute to give up! Shame.

But here lately, it seems, Black men are well and truly taking issue with us in every imaginable way. Tyrese, French Montana, Trick Daddy, and the like all seem to have, what I am sure they deem, serious grievances with Black woman, and I just don't get it. And let's not talk about the "Hotep" brothers who are quick to, in the same breath call the Black woman God and tell us we need to stop ...

Facebook Bra Color "Scandal"

I have had it with the hoopla over the Facebook Status update. In 2000 my 43 year-old mother died from breast cancer. When I saw the email on FB, it warmed my heart because at the very least, Breast Cancer was on the minds of those forwarding the message and changing their status. I gladly changed my status. My mother had a double mastectomy, but she had a wonderful doctor who helped her get bras that gave her "breasts" and she felt so much better. Everyday, as a young mother, I worry about my risk for developing cancer and I worry about the risk my daughters may face. Breast cancer does not only belong to those who have experienced it alone. It belongs to the mothers, daughters, sisters, cousins, friends, etc. of us all, and any thing that will make it a topic of discussion is fine by me. Of course, changing your FB status won't resolve the cancer issue, but it will get young women talking about this very serious illness. When my mother developed breast cancer, there was...
