NY Post accuses Sharpton of Corporate Shakedowns

June 15, 2008

This story is on the front page of the Sunday NY Post on 06/15/08. Now in fairness I must admit that the Post does seem to have some sort of persoanl animus toward Sharpton so keep that in mind when reading the story. While this is not the first time these accusations have surfaced this may be the first time a news organization and given businesses and names as to whom may have been shaken down. Some points:

The NY post admits that it has donated to Sharptons Organization NAN

It can only list 1 paying position that Sharpton was given. A $25,000 a year “diversity” board seat with PepsiCo.

Most “donations” were made to NAN ( National Action Network )

Missing Black Women II by glc3 — Revver Online Video Sharing Network

May 18, 2008

Please sign to help missing women

January 24, 2008
******Please forward to as many as possible******
Please sign my petition to get black women more coverage on cable news channels. You can sign here
 http://www.petitiononline.com/mbw/petition.htmlTo:  CNN, Fox News, MSNBC

While this started as a drive to get cases of missing African American Women and other women of color more air time on cable and news it is now a mission to get missing women of every ethnic group, race, or religion more air time by asking Cable Stations to devote just 30 seconds of air time per hour to the story of a missing woman. That would be 168 woman a week and 8736 women a year that would get at least some coverage on a national level. Please help me do this by signing my petion which wil be sent to CNN, Fox News and MSNBC. The may ignore 1 or 100 but they can’t ignore thousands.

Barack Obama’s Civil Rights Plan

January 13, 2008
Click the link below to read a PDF Document containing Barack Obama’s civil rights plan. In it he discusses hate crimes, racial profiling, ending deceptive voting practices, and much more. Hmmm I wonder how many other candidates even have a civil rights plan.

Barack Obama is not muslim!

December 23, 2007

Despite efforts by many to make it seem as if Barack Obama is secrectly a practicing muslim he has come out and let it be known that he is a Christian. It’s a shame that he has to stop talking about important issues to address this garbage. But then again that’s what the competition wants. Read the story by clicking the link below:

Missing black women, who would know?

MISSING BLACK WOMEN, who would know??????

I’m sure by now most of you may have heard of  the case of Latasha Norman a Jackson State University student who was recently reported missing and found dead.

You are also probably aware of the lack of media attention the case got. What’s especially galling in the case of Latasha Norman is that she was everything a parent could ask for.

She was a college student, active in the church, and working a job. She was the type of daughter any parent would want and if she had been white we would have inundated with stories about her constantly. Hell they may have put up a statue by now.
