Maybe I'm crazy, but, why do so many
women find themselves attracted to men who cheapen
them? How is it possible with all the power you possess (especially
with the liberties American women enjoy) that so many continue to
be so stupid? Get mad if you want to, but, you know… Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (2) | Blog

I admit it, I did it, while holding hands and walking down the street. That's right, I am guilty as charged. Whether sitting on the subway or in the pew at church, my eyes have wandered. But, in the immortal words of George W. Bush, as it relates to the War in Iraq,...

Apparently so, according to People magazine. Surely I cannot be the only one who has noticed this. Save for one (Denzel Washington), there has never been a man of color on the cover of the annual "Sexiest Man Alive" issue. Seriously? You mean Nick Nolte actually once "graced" the cover of People as the "Sexiest Man Alive" and the likes of Benjamin Bratt, Taye Diggs, Blair Underwood, Boris Kodjoe, Will Smith, Jesse L. Martin (Law & Order), Terrence Howard, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Edris Elba, Eddie Murphy, Welsley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Sendhil Ramamurthy (Heroes), Tyson Beckford, Rodrigo Santoro (The 300), Esai Morales, Oscar De La Hoya, um, President-elect Barack Obama, somehow don't measure up? Seriously? Isn't the adage or standard of masculine beauty "talk, dark and handsome?" So can someone please explain to me why People magazine religiously voids that on their cover, every single year?

A few days ago I found myself in a sudden and captivating conversation with a lovely young lady while walking home. We talked for what seemed to be hours: Politics, the entertainment industry, race, relationships, and God were among the topics of discussion. She spoke about...

Women (and men) through out
the centuries have juggled family and work in far more
strenuous conditions then the GOP's latest superstar, Sarah
Palin. Just ask Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Joe Biden. So
what's the big deal? She's a mother of five, with a husband and I
am...

There are a number of ways to determine the measure of a man (or woman), but, I would say none more prevelant than who one chooses as a mate. Like it or not, our decisions, especially in regards to those we socialize with and/or love are testaments to our character and essentially how we see...

I had never really noticed it until, this year. It had been so blatanly evident, but, as with most things pertaining to race it has been left unsaid. We have read and heard the plethera of arguments as it relates to the double standard of sex and sexuality as it pertains to men and...

I had an interesting exchange with my son's school director most recently. The conversation centered around methods of discipline. I am of the old school. I believe in "not sparing the rod." She on the other hand is of the new school of "time out" and" reflection... Read More »

What is it about the issue of race that makes most White people squirm in their socks? If you've managed to live in the Western Hemisphere and have not found yourself affected in anyway by some form of racial prejudice, then might I suggest you get a blood test to find... Read More »
