LaBabera Overly Interested in "Aberrant" Sex

Our old friend Peter LaBarbera ("Babs") is on a rampage once again, referring to HRC and equal rights advocates as "aberrant-sex activists." Further, he cites the HRC's material as proof that anyone who disagrees with him is involved in some widespread conspiracy to corrupt biblical principles. *Take a second to look at what the HRC developed, and notice the many references to remaining calm when faced with opposition. First, when I consider the heterosexual couples I know, I don't... Read Full Story

And much of the aftermath, the suspects, the politics of the day. . .it just seems so odd to a person too young to remember it. All of it was history by the time I was old enough to think about it. But even I wondered if Marilyn... Read Full Story

RBG Who, What, Why and How: Background & Significance and A Review of the Afrikan Centered Education Literature

  Liberation is impossible if we fail to see ourselves in more positive terms. For without a change of vision, we are slaves to the oppressor’s ideas and values—ideas and values that finally attack the very core of our existence. Therefore, we must see the world in terms of our own realities.” Larry Neal , “Black Art and Black Liberation,” 1969 The time is ripe to heed the long-standing, and most often overlooked, calls for Afrikan Unity, Cultural Development, Education and Social...

Martin Luther King by Godfrey Hodgson

TimesOnline.co.uk From The Sunday Times The Sunday Times review by Stephen Robinson November 15, 2009 It might be true, as Godfrey Hodgson argues in explaining why this book is timely, that without Martin Luther King there would have been no Barack Obama, although by that same logic, it might be argued that had George Washington not crossed the Delaware, there would have been no Thomas Jefferson. One senses Hodgson wanted to laud a man who was incontrovertibly a huge figure of his time: a... Read Full Story
