Black Christians Should Understand The Politics Behind Overturning Roe v. Wade Are Anti-Black And Anti-Christian

July 27, 2022 Carma Henry 0

The Supreme Court ruling on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization has effectively ended the constitutional right to an abortion—returning the issue to states. African American women, particularly the poor, will be disproportionately impacted by the lack of access to reproductive choices. As Black Christians, we are yet again confronted with the religious mandates and reading of scripture that undermines our humanity. Bodily autonomy, privacy, states’ rights, religion and the never-ending struggle against white supremacy in the United States are at the heart of the SCOTUS ruling. These issues are not new but historic in nature. The end of Roe v. Wade as the law of the land is part and parcel of a broader conservative agenda. […]

Trump’s Insanity Goes Viral

July 21, 2022 Carma Henry 0

     America’s society is currently under siege by a strain of insanity which seemed to have gone viral with the election of the former 45th president of the United States. During his reign as president, having infected members of the Republican Party and their base with his strain of insanity, the U.S. Constitution became as credible as a dead sea scroll. If insanity is defined as “one who jumps out of a plane without a parachute,” then certainly “one who knows he lost but believes he won and attempts a coup must be insane. […]

     The struggle of systemic racism in 2022 has intensified, and many Americans refuse to discuss the threat to voting rights, civil rights, and human rights. As millions of Americans spend hours glued to their television and cell phones watching the January 6th hearing, we almost lost our democracy, because of racism, discrimination, and criminality. There are 5 Proud Boys and 10 Oath Keepers who have been charged with seditious conspiracy. […]

Overturning Roe v. Wade Weakens Our Union

July 19, 2022 Carma Henry 0

Those seeking to deny basic rights rarely stop halfway. States are already proposing to legally sanction trips to other states for abortions. The enactment of these laws—which I believe to be blatantly unconstitutional, but do not trust the current Supreme Court to agree—would force women to choose between living in certain states and access to legal abortion anywhere. Given that nearly one in four American women have an abortion in their lifetimes, I fear deaths and horrific outcomes to many pregnancies and maybe another Great Migration. […]

July 19, 2022 Carma Henry 0

     Demonic dimwit Donald Trump – the whiny, pathetic, defeated Putin puppet crybaby – is such an unrepentant career criminal he can’t even just TEMPORARILY stop committing new felonies during the ongoing televised blockbuster January 6th congressional hearings, specifically – witness tampering and witness intimidation! Trump is truly stupid. […]
