Respect Rachel Dolezal!

We invite Rachel to help with our Reggae projects and feel bad for the treatment she has received.  Thank you for all of your good work, and if you ever wish come and help us out in New York State.  We are sorry the world is so narrow minded.  The establishment can make a profit respecting all genders but they see no profit in being black, hence she is chewed up by the media.

Both Black and White cultures are beautiful!

Obama on Space Exploration

So let me start by being extremely clear: I am 100 percent committed to the mission of NASA and its future. (Applause.) Because broadening our capabilities in space will continue to serve our society in ways that we can scarcely imagine. Because exploration will once more inspire wonder in a new generation -- sparking passions and launching careers. And because, ultimately, if we fail to press forward in the pursuit of discovery, we are ceding our future and we are ceding that essential element of the American character.

New Jim Crow (Informed Consent)

...In many states parolees and ex-felons cannot vote. KQED notes, some 6 million ex-felons are disenfranchised in the US. Since African-Americans are sentenced at startlingly higher rates than European-Americans, the burden of loss of voting rights falls especially heavily on them.

“Disenfranchisement laws disproportionately affect African Americans: in 2010, 1 of every 13 African Americans of voting age — about 7.7 percent nationally — was disenfranchised, a rate more than four times greater than with non-African Americans. In some of the strictest states — including Florida, Kentucky and Virginia — more than 20 percent of the African American population was disenfranchised, the report found.

For the Love of Skin, and Within

Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1 (1967),[1] was a landmark civil rights decision of the United States Supreme Court which invalidated laws prohibiting interracial marriage.

The case was brought by Mildred Loving, a black woman, and Richard Loving, a white man, who had been sentenced to a year in prison in Virginia for marrying each other. Their marriage violated the state's anti-miscegenation statute, the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which prohibited marriage between people classified as "white" and people classified as "colored". The Supreme Court's unanimous decision held this prohibition was unconstitutional, reversing Pace v. Alabama (1883) and ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States.

The decision was followed by an increase in interracial marriages in the U.S., and is remembered annually on Loving Day, June 12. It has been the subject of two movies as well as songs. Beginning in 2013, it was cited as precedent in U.S. federal court decisions holding restrictions on same-sex marriage in the United States unconstitutional...wiki

Ghetto Could be 'Wild West'

Barkley: Ghetto Would Be Like ‘Wild, Wild West’ if it Wasn’t for Police

FERGUSON, Mo. (CBS St. Louis)

NBA Hall of Famer Charles Barkley is defending police officers, calling it “ridiculous” that people claim white cops are just out there killing black people.

Speaking to CNN on Tuesday, Barkley stated that if it wasn’t for police, the ghetto would be like the “wild, wild west.”

“The notion that white cops are out there just killing black people – that’s ridiculous. That’s just flat-out ridiculous,” the TNT basketball analyst told CNN. “I challenge any black person to try to make that point. Cops are actually awesome. They are the only thing in the ghetto between this place being the wild, wild west. So this notion that cops are out there just killing black men is ridiculous and I hate that narrative coming out of this entire situation.”...link

...

...Success! With a dawn launch, NASA has ushered in a new age for final frontier explorations. At 7:05 a.m EST Friday, NASA launched its Orion spacecraft, a potential precursor to manned Mars, moon, or asteroid missions.

"The star of the day is Orion," said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden Jr., according to the AP. He called the success "Day One of the Mars era."

The spacecraft is now zooming past at 15,000 miles per hour as it prepares to begin its first orbit around Earth. It is "performing perfectly," according to NASA...link

Encourage your Kids to Become Cops

When you sit around the dinner table this Thanksgiving as an African American family encourage your children to serve the public as police officers.

Violent protests are not going to do anything to change the culture.  Do you want to solve the problem?  Then have your family become part of the solution.

Encourage boys and girls to seriously think about joining the force after college.  Encourage them to become patrol officers and detectives.

The more black officers and minority officers on the streets, the more interaction between white and minority officers, the better outcome for any city.

Encourage your kids to seriously think about improving this country through service.

The future of our country demands it!

Happy Thanksgiving!
