Browsing: A Message from The Publisher

     This Wuhan Coronavirus has focused our attention on what has been happening right under our own noses. It’s like Chickenpox,  Measles, Mumps and the Flu have taken some steroids and morphed into the $20,000,000,000 AI virus.

      The more I think about the perplexing situations that we find ourselves in, the more I realize that we are the only ones who can save us from our own demise.

Welcoming the National Newspaper Publishers Association to Fort Lauderdale has reinforced and confirmed my beliefs to the need for the survival of the Black Press. As we stand on the precipice of a new beginning for the disseminating of information to Black people, about Black people, telling our own story and writing the narrative for us. For the record, let us not forget the path from which we came.

The civil rights struggle wasn’t only concerned with racial equality. It was about increasing American democracy, reestablishing Black voting rights, thus open handedly giving new meaning to American democracy and shutting down segregation. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. a prophet, played a vital role in all of the aforementioned areas and transitioned to glory before their completion.

     Those things that I want to do which are right, i.e. exercise, proper diet and strengthen my relationship with God, peep at me from behind the walls of my mind as I struggle to complete each new day with that which I resolve to do.

When one thinks of constipation, blockage comes to mind. Something causes the flow or passage of an item to a point severe obstruction that easily leads to destruction.

   A lot of the people that I have contact with and can discuss concerns without the fear of being made to feel uncomfortable will only pray to ask for something or when they find themselves, friends or family members in the thick of unwanted situations. They also limit their sphere of prayers to a close knitted tight circle of people they know.
