Career educator, author and historian Dr. Marvin Dunn has had enough. He has had enough of Florida’s Wokeomaniac governor Ron DeSantis and his strong-arm antics, and he’s drawing a line in the sand. Dr. Dunn is spearheading a march and rally in Miami on August 16 that will feature a 10-block walk to the steps of the Miami-Dade Public School System. He’s drawing attention to DeSantis’ moves to revise history. Not only to revise history but to teach middle school students that Slavery benefitted enslaved Africans. In other words, Africans were a people with no skills to speak of but for European ..read more

Several people have made a profound impression on my life, apart from and above all others. Sports icons Muhammad Ali and ‘The Great One,’ Roberto Walker Clemente immediately come to mind. But on the social justice side of the ledger, it’s the man’s man Malcolm X and Master Teacher Dr. John Henrik Clarke. I can remember entering Dr. Clarke’s Harlem home to do an interview late and him complaining, “I thought TV folks did things on time.” I had never heard of John Henrik Clarke before that Saturday morning. A brother by the name of Byron Crudup introduced me to Dr. Clarke’s body of work and pro ..read more

Florida educators have sparked outrage among African Americans, Florida educators and others over a new initiative to educate middle school students and teaching them that Slavery benefitted enslaved people by providing them with skills. Florida governor Ron DeSantis is defending the new initiative and clearly hiding behind the Florida Board of Education which approves of it. The Board approved a new set of guidelines for teaching public school students about slavery in America. Among the guidelines is a provision implying that slavery benefited some black people because they learned ski ..read more

If you type ‘Netflix’ and ‘Cleopatra’ in Twitter’s search engine, it opens up the floodgates of video interviews, news accounts, and clownish spoofs of various caricatures poking fun of the notion of Cleopatra being black. One interview features an Egyptian citizen accusing black people of trying to steal his historical heritage. And there’s more than a few people weighing in on the top. I’ve added my voice to the mix — which led one misguided soul to lead his response to me with the N-word! I get the sense that no amount of verifiable documentation from any number of scholars who’ve made anc ..read more

Netflix and Jada Pinkett Smith are in deep do do right now because they cast a black actress in the role of Cleopatra. It seems that some of our native Egyptian friends are more comfortable with Cleopatra being depicted as Arab or European. Or something. Anything but black. It’s quite incredible when you think about it. For decades Zahi Hawass who oversaw all of the ancient Egyptian antiquities and other prominent Arab Egyptians have been trying to convince everyone who’ll listen that they are the descendants of ancient Egypt. I hate to rain on their parade but that’s like European settlers m ..read more

I’ve had a love affair with mass media since I was 16 years old. At that time I had not developed the requisite self esteem to see myself beyond ‘Columbia School of Broadcasting.’ That was my dream then — to become a radio announcer. I ended up going to college and eventually earning a Master’s Degree in Telecommunications and I spent the lion’s share of my career in mass media in one form or the other; in front of and behind the camera. At one time, I truly believed in the Fourth Estate, Journalism, the only institution sandwiched between government and corporate corruption and the general pu ..read more

A number of people showed up last week at the congressional hearings on COVID origins donning ‘Jail Fauci’ tee shirts, which prompted me to look to what’s currently being marketed. There are a quite a few of them. This is my favorite. Speaking of Batman Fauci, I see he did yet another one of his revisionist puff piece interviews with a placating New York Times last week. I was going to post it but there’s a Pay Wall to read it. Got to give it to his handlers, they got major “juice” in setting him up with fawning media and presenting Fauci in the most positive light. I’m one of those folks who ..read more

Robert F. Kennedy Jr running for President is HUGE news! You’re talking about a man who comes from a family that is as close to royalty in the United States as any family. A man whose uncle was hugely popular, President of the United States and was assassinated and whose father, Robert F. Kennedy Sr, who was a shoo-in to become President of the United States before he too was assassinated. A lifelong Democrat that one would think left-leaning CNN and MSNBC would be falling over each other to cover. Not! I can’t wait until the primaries. I wanna see how America’s co-opted “ideological news” op ..read more

There goes that 800 pound gorilla in the room again! What about the NIH, NIAID, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DOD), the CDC Office of Acquisition Services (HHS), National Science Foundation, Division of Environmental Biology, USAID, Office of Health Affairs Acquisition Division, Dept. of Homeland Security, Dept of Agriculture, USDA Animal and Plant Inspection Service, Department of the Interior, US Fish and Wildlife Services — ALL OF THESE AGENCIES SIGNATURES ARE ON GRANTS TO FUND EcoHealth Alliance AND the Chinese government to develop what turned out to be COVID-19. How in the world ..read more

For those familiar with my post on Event 201, the Tabletop exercise that mimicked the COVID-19 Pandemic that came just weeks after Event 201, George Gao who is the Tony Fauci of China, participated in Event 201. He along with representatives for the CIA, military, Bill & Malinda Gates Foundation and media pros painstakingly mapped out in exquisite detail how to “flood the zone” with a their tailored narrative, while forcefully censoring any and all opposing views. Why Gao is saying “we may never know” the origins of COVID-19 or why the reporter is just accepting GAO’s spiel without refere ..read more
