“Shirley-gate”: Right Wing Conspiracy or Media Goof?
If you’ve been watching any of the major news stations this past week then you’ve heard about the debacle with Shirley Sherrod, former Georgia Director of Rural Development for the USDA. The gist of the story is that she was fired after making a speech that was edited into a few seemingly inflammable statements and posted on youtube by an “anti-obama administration” pseudo-journalist. The real debacle was the fact that Fox News, NAACP and others (not including CNN) took the [...]

Enough Already BP!
As of today, the calamity that is the BP oil spill is still yet to be contained. Is it us or is this just down right ridiculous? Between the engineers and the scientists that work for BP, are you telling us that no one….absolutely no one…can figure out how to stop this madness from continuing to pollute our precious bodies of water?

Spotlight On: Valerie Jarrett
We’ve seen her next to and behind the president and know her as a powerful adviser. But who is Valerie Jarrett? Though quite elusive, she is an interesting woman with a fascinating story. Given her international exposure and strong pedigree, it’s not surprising that she is Barack and Michelle Obama’s “BFF.” An only child, Valerie was born in Shiraz, Iran in 1956. No, her ethnicity is not Iranian and her parents were not in the military. Her father, James Bowman, [...]

The Obama Victory: One Year Later
By Kailei Richardson November 4, 2008: the night that most of us will never forget. I bet we all can remember where we were when the votes came in and Barack Obama became the first Black president of the United States. For me, I had just awoken shortly after touchdown in Dallas. “We did it! Your vote counted, girl!” was the first voicemail I received (from my mom) after I landed. I was still registered to vote in Illinois and [...]
