Celebrating Black History Month 2019 Sojourner Truth (1797-1883) Delivered in 1851 at the Women's Convention, Akron, Ohio “Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the negroes of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But what's all this here talking about? That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathere

Cleveland’s the Rev. Dr. Emmitt Theophilus Caviness, Pastor of the Greater Abyssinia Baptist Church, President of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Cleveland’s own nationally known Civil Rights Crusader and Leader, was honored at the Severance Hall on Sunday, Jan. 20 at the Cleveland Orchestra’s 39th Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Concert.

Whether in the pulpit preaching or in a classroom teaching, Dr. Caviness has been powerful and tenacious

Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X waiting for press conference, March 26, 1964. (Photo: Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division) As the nation commemorates Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s holiday, some may find interesting tidbits of little-known or talked about facts and details of the slain civil rights champion. When he was born on Jan. 15, 1929, King’s name at birth was actually was Michael. His father, a pastor at Atlanta’s Ebenezer Baptist Church (where the younger King would later also pastor), traveled to Germany and “was inspired by the teachings of the leader of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther,” recalled Michael Hart, a Christian conservative and host of the

It has been more than three years since I interviewed then California Attorney General Kamala D. Harris in her bid for the United States Senate, and on Martin Luther King Day Jan. 21 she declared that she would take on a crowded field of Democrats for the 2020 Presidential nomination. Harris, the first African American California AG and the second African American woman Senator hails from a culture of public servants in San Francisco that can only be compared to the brutality of politicians in Chicago. Hence as many underestimated a little know senator from Illinois name Barack Obama, they will likely do the same to Harris, but he will ultimately be a grave mistake. Obama went on to become t

Regina King makes it easy to say “yes” to an assignment editor’s request for a reporter to join in on a national conference call and listen to an actress talk about her role in a movie. I had already sounded the “y” in my “yes” before the sentence conveying the opportunity was complete. At 7 p.m. Central time last Wednesday, I was in full-listen mode as King – fresh from her Golden-Globe winning evening – talked about her role in “If Beale Street Could Talk” with more than a thousand faith leaders, community activists, sororities and fraternities and African-American news outlets on the line. She was candid from the jump. “James Baldwin’s book with the same title is a powerful meditation on

With over 50,000 federal employees, the fourth congressional district in Maryland represents the fifth largest number of workers, and Maryland likely counts as the third-largest impacted state by the government shutdown, according to Democratic Rep. Anthony Brown. “So, I’m hearing about this, like my colleagues, each and every day from my constituents while this shutdown is set to become the longest in the nation’s history,” said Brown, who joined Congressional Black Caucus Chair Karen Bass (D-Calif.); Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), and Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), on a media conference call on Friday, Jan. 11. The CBC members said they were calling for an end to the shutdown so that worker

THERE IS NO WINNER IN A NUCLEAR EXCHANGE… THERE IS NO WINNER IN A NUCLEAR WAR. “Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.” Ralph Waldo Emerson Nuclear peace, my fellow Americans, is what our spiritually touched, God-sent President Donald J. Trump is trying to attain. He is doing so by establishing a mutual relationship of respect between himself and the Honorable Supreme Leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un. However, my fellow Americans, the powerful, corrupt, rigged system’s hate for and against President Trump, is doing all that it can to undermine that very important, mutual respect, that the two world nuclear leaders hold for each other.

For Dream Hampton, who served as executive producer of the much-talked about “Surviving R. Kelly” documentary, the explosive revelations in the film were just the tip of the iceberg. Hampton said there were many things she couldn’t talk about and will never discuss because it’s “so dark and sad and traumatic.” That’s saying quite a bit as the three-part Lifetime Television series not only has social media and the general public aghast but has celebrities like John Legend and Chance the Rapper expressing remorse for ever working with Kelly. “Maybe he could’ve gotten help when he was 30, or you know, 29 when the Aaliyah stuff broke,” Hampton said in an extensive interview on The Karen Hunter S
