Keep Filming White People, Our Lives Depend On It!

Hello fellow zobopians!  I’ve got a doozy for you!  We the Black people must keep filming cops and white citizens.  Our lives depend on it.  At least after we’re dead anyway.  The video can be used on social media to shame and avenge our deaths!  (As if regular mainstream media cares.)  Or maybe in a court of Law, that is if the Law is on our side.  I would like this picture below to become a rallying cry and meme to remember our collective due diligence.  If you’re thinking this is provocative, then good!  If white citizens are going to keep calling the police on Black Americans, (and thereby getting Blacks killed), then Black people need to start and keep whites under surveillance.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your cameras!

Guns, Democracy and the American Way

Now more than ever needed!

Envisioning The American Dream

For many Americans a gun represents the heart of our nation’s foundation and identity and symbol of their freedom and democracy but on this cold war creed of American rights, gun ownership was noticeably absent.

What you may ask, is more fundamental to the American Way of Life than a gun? Who could argue that gleaming AK 47 automatic rifle is a shining and powerful example of our basic rights which protect the dignity and freedom of the individual?

In fact, most would agree the right to keep and bear arms is written in stone.

Or is it?

A cold war Credo of the “American Way of Life”  that highlighted all the freedoms and rights unique to democracy didn’t deem it necessary to include gun ownership in their patriot doctrine.

This full-page color illustration that ran in Family Circle Magazine in 1956 was the visual embodiment of this Credo of…

Love The Tattoo

Well hello fellow zobopians! Deciphering kanji pictographs is not easy. So I’m going to get to the chase here and be inscrutable. This is the Puerto Rican & Egyptian tattoo appreciation post. (Wink-wink, nudge-nudge.)

Appreciate the Lexa L***!

President Trump Colluded

Hello fellow zobopians! Long time, no… I spend too much time on Twitter. I just read some reviews and opinions on the movie Black Panther. Can’t wait to see it eventually. Hopefully President Trump won’t turn America into a Russian copycat country before I do see the movie. Makes me wish Wakanda really did exist. But anyway… Trump is making himself a puppet to Russia’s President Putin. Who’s really running America? I know who running America into the ground; Trump!

Donald Trump said he was going to drain the “swamp” in Washington, D.C.  The only swamp Trump is going to drain is when his E.P.A.(Environmental Protection Agency) dumps the swamp into the Heartland of America! Enjoy the Black Lung disease working class America! You’ll be dying sooner!

Yep! Never let a Backseat Driver in the White House people! You got what you thought you paid for.

Trump, the backseat driver of America.

Until neXt time world…

America Doesn’t Care About Women

Hello fellow zobopians!  Ha-ha, long time no see.  It’s been awhile since I posted anything original.  Hey, I do re-blog other writers.  Anyway, I want to today talk about the Day of Reckoning with…SEXUAL MISCONDUCT!  Ooooh, taboo!  You women who are reading this…it’s time for you to MAN UP!  [No pun intended!]

Wonder Woman you are not!

Has America, (the Almighty U.S.A.), ever cared about women?

“IT” never cared about Native American women, who were exterminated.

“IT” never cared about Mexican women, who are used as cheap coolie labor for American industry.

“IT” never cared about Chinese women, who came after Chinese men who were used as cheap coolie labor to build the American railroad.

“IT” never ever cared about Black women, who were used as slave labor.

So, does America care about white womanhood?  The answer is easy…nope!  No!  Nada!  Even when white males kill to protect white womanhood, nobody cares about women.

Since the early 20th century when women, (and their male allies), took to marching in the streets for women’s suffrage they were brutalized in those streets by angry white men.  (Who else could it have been?  People of color had no projected power.)  Violence is a device of projection.

It’s depressing to think that all social groups, ethnic groups or societies are violently patriarchal.  Some social groups are matriarchal or egalitarian…some.  But I’m talking about only America.  America is unique.  It’s not mono-ethnic like most countries.  I’m not discussing Middle Eastern, Mediterranean or Indo-European societies.  (They don’t seem to care about women either.)  Most males in most societies will use violence to project and maintain the patriarchal folklore.

What is a female and egalitarian male to do?  (Especially now in this Day of Reckoning with SEXUAL MISCONDUCT.)

So, what I’m trying to get at without beating around the bush is, women are going to have to get VIOLENT!  The males are gonna get violent to you!  But I think you already know that.  [Remember the movie, ‘The Burning Bed‘?]  Women’s suffrage or right’s are not going to be won by putting on “velvet gloves”.  If women want to stop sexual misconduct, it’s time to throw punches.  If or when you do, expect to get punched back!  If women decide to shoot, you will get shot back at and/or you’ll get incarcerated.  Why do you think males carry military assault weapons?  Angry disaffected white males don’t like losing or coming in second to women.  [WATCH YOUR BACK!]  Those angry males may shoot and kill Black males to protect white womanhood but white women will be intimidated “ad nauseam”!  [STOP COVERING UP FOR THEM!]  A single white female discussing or “calling out” sexual misconduct is not enough.  I don’t think anybody ever listens to a Black woman “calling out” anything.  Nope!  Women…all women of all persuasions will have to speak up from a “whisper to a scream” to complete this Day of Reckoning.

One person DOESN’T make a difference.

[The one who does not know about it may walk over it.  The one who knows about it will dig it up and eat it.]

This could be the beginning of a NEW women’s folklore.

…until neXt time…

American Carnage…No More Thoughts and Prayers

Our Congressional leaders need to.. #TakeAKnee! Yep.

Envisioning The American Dream

Uncle Sam need to get off his knees and take action. Prayers are not a political policy. Sutherland Springs joins the much too long list of mass shootings in recent American history and as usual Congressional lawmakers alike rushed to send out their “thoughts and prayers” but continue to fail to act to end gun violence. Collage by Sally Edelstein

Saying prayers is not enough. Again.

Our Congressional leaders need to get up off their knees and do something about gun violence and ban assault rifles.

Offering prayers but failing to act to end gun violence make their prayers ring hollow.

We need to take meaningful legislative action that truly brings meaning to our prayers and make a consequential difference in the lives of Americans.

Here We Go Again

The routines are numbingly familiar by now.

Every time a mass shooting happens, lawmakers immediately offer “thoughts and prayers” as they…

When Will Girl’s Generation (SNSD) Disband for Good?

It’s too many girls in this K-pop group! Right?

Learn New Powerful Skills Insanely Fast

Let me start by saying I am by no means asking that they break up anytime soon,

but they’ve been around for so long that its a discussion worth having,

especially since they’ve been on the decline since Jessica left the group.

With their recent release of Holiday Night to help celebrate their ten year anniversary, SNSD managed to reach number 2 on the South Korean Gaon Album Chart. Number 2 just isn’t in the blood for a group that used to completely dominate the South Korean music charts.

This begs the question of when will SM Entertainment finally pull the plug on the girls?

Tiffany is constantly under fire; when was the last time you saw someone bias Fany?

As for the solo careers: Tiffany, Jessica, Seohyun and Hyoyeon have been doing mediocre jobs at building hype around their lone music ventures.

Though I do personally love Taeyeon’s…

Immigration- RAISE Act or Race Act…You Decide

The author Ishmael Reed would call this “RAISE act”, awarding whiteness.

Envisioning The American Dream

Once again Trump pulls up the welcome mat to the rest of the worlds with his callous attack on immigration. Donald Trump just doesn’t like the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses that the Statue of Liberty beckons.

Only In TrumpLand  does Lady Liberty lament : “Give me your xenophobes, your angry, your middle masses yearning to be free of those damn foreigners….”

Donald Trump has been busy recently taking up the case of oppressed white people  first going after affirmative action and now keeping out those darn foreigners by supporting the RAISE Act which would slash the number of immigrants admitted to the US while favoring those who spoke English and had certain education levels, and skills.

White Trash

Food for thought in the era of *President* Trump.

The Daily Context

This is the second in a series of posts reviewing the NY Times’ 6 Books to Help Understand Trump’s Win. The first installment is here. 

Nancy Isenberg, White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America. New York: Penguin Books, 2016.

Nancy Isenberg’s White Trash uses class and the history of poor whites to reveal the lie at the heart of the American dream. Isenberg seeks to tell a story that “we as a people have trouble embracing: the pervasiveness of a class hierarchy in the United States” (xxviii-xxix). The continual presence of the poor “reveals an uneasy tension between what Americans are taught to think the country promises—the dream of upward social mobility—and the less appealing truth that class barriers almost invariably make that dream unobtainable” (xxvii-xxviii). Something, she argues, is rotten in the United States.

American class hierarchies, Isenberg stresses, emerged from English…

The Almighty GOP? Nope! Just Creeps now

Hello fellow zobopians!  Well I guess it’s official.  Donald Trump has truly ruined the Almighty Republican party now.  (Actually I think tricky Richard Nixon ruined it back in the 1970’s with his CREEP fundraising organization).  Trump has released the Nationalist into the hen house.  Or maybe I should call it the sheep house.  People are sheep nowadays if they’re willing to bet their house and/or farm on a guy like Trump.  “Chumps for Trump” should be the motto.  There’s no saving the GOP now.  Even the sheep Republicans won’t even try to save it.  The GOP is the “Titantic” of political parties.  They will sink America as we know it!  (The Democratic party on the other hand is the “Apocalypse Now” of political parties).

Anyway, I think the below picture will illustrate how the 21st century Republican party are just creeps now.

The GOP are just creeps now!

Until neXt time sheep people…
