Nicki Minaj A Nazi?

Accroding to USATODAY article people are pretty pissed off at Nicki Minaj again. It’s her message again she is sending to the minds of the world.  We love you, Nicki, but what on earth were you thinking here?!

On Friday, the Anaconda rapper debuted a militaristic lyric video for new song Only, which features Chris Brown and her Young Money labelmates Drake and Lil Wayne. But as sites such as Buzzfeed andBillboard have pointed out, many fans have accused Nicki of using “Nazi imagery” in the visual, including a swastika-like recreation of the Young Money logo.

Black Republican's Make a Historic Come Back?

Picture
The Republican Party made historic gains during this week's midterm elections. Among their victories were three wins by black Republicans, who seem to be building momentum for diversifying the GOP ranks.
Mia Love — who is Mormon and Haitian-American — is one of those three, and Republicans in Utah's 4th District will be sending her to Congress next year. "Many of the naysayers out there said that Utah would never elect a black, Republican, LDS woman to Congress," Love told a crowd on Tuesday. "And guess what? Not only did we do it, we were the first to do it!"
Another big winner was Tim Scott, who was appointed to the Senate in 2012, but won a full term in his own right on Tuesday. He's now South Carolina's first elected black senator, and the South's first since Reconstruction.

Texas also celebrated a historic win in Will Hurd, a former CIA officer who is the first black Republican from Texas ever to win a U.S. Congressional seat. "It's a start," says Michael Steele, the former chairman of the Republican National Committee. "And yeah, I want more. You know, I want to get to the point where it's not notable."Steele, the first black chairman of the RNC, is notable himself. He says these rising stars will follow the lead of former representatives Allen West and J.C. Watts, who, like other black Republicans, faced suspicion from many black voters. "You still have to deal with the stereotype that somehow if you're a black Republican, you're not a real black person," he says. But Steele adds there are also legitimate questions about his party's commitment to racial diversity.

"White folks get excited when they see, 'Oh, got a black candidate running for office!' " he says. "OK, that's great. But what are you doing to get them elected? It's not just enough to have the face on the ballot."

Black GOP Stars Rise In A Party That's Still Awkwardly White


Amy Holmes, a former speech writer for Republican Sen. Bill Frist and an anchor on the TheBlaze.com, says this newly-elected group represents an important part of the post-Obama era of politics.
"I think President Obama's election in 2008 inspired a lot of African-American politicians, including on the right," Holmes says. Holmes points out these candidates also succeeded in places where black voters did not make up the majority. "The old conventional wisdom has been that an African-American politician has to run from a majority African-American district," she says. "Well, these three candidates prove that's not true.

Why Did Black Voters Flee The Republican Party In The 1960's?

But the relationship between the GOP and black voters has to change as U.S. racial demographics continue to shift, according to Lenny McAllister, a former Republican candidate for Congress and the host of The McAllister Minute on the American Urban Radio Network. Early exit polls show almost 90 percent of black voters supported Democrats on Tuesday, and McAllister says that allegiance to the Democratic Party diminishes black political power. "We cannot continue to only access half of the political process," McAllister says. "We need Republicans and Democrats being actively and efficiently responsive to our needs."

Alabama's Darius Foster Wants To Bring Back 'Fight For The People' GOP
McAllister admits it will take more than these three winners for Republicans to earn the trust of black voters. But he says we shouldn't forget how a young senator from Illinois beat the odds to become America's first black president. 
"The impossible happens in America, and if we're going to open up the doors to what's possible for more Americans, we have to take on this fight now," he says.

Sir Charles, said It Very Loud and Very Clear! Do you Agree?

Sir Charles, what is the issue now with BLACK PEOPLE? Did he go too far or is he Right?

Or is it the Hard Truth? According to CNN news report Charles Barkley hasn't met a sensitive topic he couldn't dig into, and now he's speaking on what he calls a "dirty, dark secret" in the African-American communit.During an interview with a Philadelphia radio station, Barkley expounded on claims that Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson wasn't liked by some of his teammates in part because he wasn't considered to be "black enough."
Barkley said he wasn't at all surprised. "There are a lot of black people who are unintelligent, who don't have success," Barkley said. "It's best to knock a successful black person down 'cause they're intelligent, they speak well, they do well in school, and they're successful. It's crabs in a barrel. ... We're the only ethnic group that says, 'hey, if you go to jail, it gives you street cred.' "
The concept of "crabs in a barrel" isn't new, and it's universal. If you've ever seen a bucket of crabs at the market, the ones at the bottom will try to pull down the crabs that are closer to the top.

Biopic of Dr. King starring Oprah in the movie Selma is Epic! 

Picture
The first trailer for Selma, a new film about Martin Luther King Jr., and the civil rights movement has dropped, and we’re still trying to catch our breaths after watching it. The film specifically follows King during the marches between Selma and Montgomery, and you can feel the emotion and tension in every beat of this trailer. The film opens in limited release Christmas Day, so it just makes the cut for this year’s Oscars, and we think the Academy will definitely be paying attention. David Oyelowo’s performance as King is the clear standout in the trailer, but make sure you don’t miss Oprah as civil rights activist Annie Lee Cooper. She’s just barely in the trailer, but the few moments that we see her are powerful. We can’t wait to see more. Watch the full trailer below.

Aretha.. Aretha.. Aretha.. How shady is this Lady? Well, I died!
