Abu-Jamal Case is Stuck in Hellish Limbo

Abu-Jamal Case is Stuck in Hellish Limbo The recent decision by the US Supreme Court to send convicted police killer Mumia Abu-Jamal’s case back down to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia, with instructions for a three-judge panel there to reconsider its decision to uphold the lifting of the prominent African-American journalist’s death penalty, is only the latest in a long string of examples of how courts at all levels have made special exceptions to precedent in order to try an… Continue

Real people's lives

As politicians fret about the political risks of health care reform instead of fixing our broken system, people are dying. And last week, that reality hit home. Melanie Shouse, a MoveOn Council leader in St. Louis, passed away from breast cancer while still fighting her insurance company for chemotherapy coverage. There is a serious cost to inaction on health care--real people's lives. And it's time to remind Washington of this. I just sent a message to Congress telling them that I stand with… Continue

Black History, Our History: Let's Celebrate!

First of all, Happy Black History Month! During this inspirational month, take the time to attend an event in your area that commemorate the achievements, recognize the contributions, and illuminate the pathway to the Promised Land of Freedom for our people. For you see, we are not yet free. Freedom by definition is the condition of being free of restraints. Yet we're restrained. To be restrained is to be held back, to be controlled, or to be deprived of liberty. We, the beautiful fruit of Afric… Continue

Lying Christian: Oxymoronic or Simply Sarah Palin?

Sarah Palin. I don’t deny or won’t apologize for the fact that I don’t care much for this woman. Trust me, it has absolutely nothing to do with being jealous of her. I am secure in my own skin and a fumbling, bumbling, air-headed pseudo-intellectual does not intimidate me in the least. I am, however, afraid of her. Not for the reasons that delusional conservatives might think. Far from it. I’m afraid that a dangerous mixture of popularity, folksiness, charm, attractiveness, misdirected political… Continue

Census Bureau Makes Black History Month Resources Available Free of Charge

By Scotty Reid, February 5, 2010

With the 2010 Census fast approaching, minority civil rights leaders are concerned about another undercount of minority communities, which happened in the 2000 Census population count.

Since 2000, thousands of minorities now operate online radio stations an

By Scotty Reid

A number of civil rights groups and other organizations are sounding the alarm about Glenn Beck’s recent racist attack on President Obama. Glenn Beck took to the airwaves on his radio program and attacked President Obama for using his first name as it appears on his Hawaii birth certificate, Barack.
