It is literally out of control. Facebook censoring black people is a topic that barely breaks through white owned media outlets. White people ignoring black people, extends to them ignoring complaints about social media censorship. The problem, really, is sites like facebook use robots and algorithms to ‘police/monitor’ their social platforms. Yes the excuse is, …
I saw this story about the Martinsville Seven originally on Shaun King’s instagram. I feel its important for us to discuss here on SoPoCo.net. Charles Blow, also covered it for BNC News – scroll down to read my thoughts on all of this. Justice 50 years too late! America has had a problem for it’s …

It’s true, that not all white people owned slaves. No white person alive today, owned slaves nor are they responsible for slavery. This is the common reasoning white people tell us, when sharing why they are against reparations. Mostly because of a guilty conscious, knowing full well they are carrying on the ‘legacy’ of slave …
Bishop Talbert Swan, is a very outspoken preacher and pastor on these, social media internets. He’s so outspoken, that similar to the comment section here on SoPoCo, he becomes targets of hate speech, by white supremacists. Listen, I am not getting into the semantics of whether or not, these backwards, inferiority complex having white people …

The GOP are the worst people in America …. but sadly, Americans cannot understand complexity. If I say the GOP are the worst, some one is reading this thinking ‘but what about the Liberals! They’re even worse than the GOP!!” — unable to understand that SOME Liberals may be Undercover Conservatives; Listening to Judge Joe …
Random thoughts on Rachel Nichols, Bill Cosby and Diversity… Rachel Nichols was out of line; but I am not surprised. The amount of work that needs to be done to “Fix” us … is Huge; by Us I mean, the U.S.A. – sadly, far too many whites view black hires as ‘diversity hires’ – and …
My Juneteenth thoughts that I originally shared on my social media, follows. I’m still happy that Juneteenth is a holiday however; EVEN THOUGH I still do feel it should ONLY BE For Black People :: I’m actually serious about that; it’s not Reparations; a day off for everybody, is still ‘nothing specifically for black people’ …
Barack Obama should have done more for black people. This ‘argument’ has gotten much louder in the last few years, since he has exited the white house, more than 5 years ago, today. While in office, several will argue, that Obama was one of the more successful presidents, the United States has had. However, regardless …

Let’s talk about how The North Failed America, after the Civil War. While it’s true, the North won the war, the vision they fought for we are yet to experience. As a nation, this idea so many people talk about, an American dream, is still that, just a dream. It can never be a nation …

Getting into the game of politics here on Inauguration day, 2021. I saw lots of excitement on my social media TL today; and I am happy for all who are happy – however, we have so much work to do; Unfortunately a lot of black people just don’t understand the game. It’s not our faults; …
In order to maintain the advantage, white ‘supremacy’ derives its white ‘power’ from numbers. It really is that simple. The reason America was able to enslave, oppress, and harm black life for as long as it has, comes down to that. There have always been more white people, who are more than okay with it. …
Rev. Kevin Cosby just settled all debates about confederate flags, symbols, and monuments. They need to come down. If you’re a ‘white evangelical Christian’, you probably support Confederate flags and symbols. In fact, you’ve probably been in many of the recent debates about confederate flags and symbols. You’re on the wrong side of history, and …

Not All White People is one of my pet peeve phrases, that gets on my last nerve. Racist white people do this, to try and absolve themselves of guilt, and responsibility. It also stems from a lack of respect for black people’s intelligence. We are more than aware, that not all white people are racist. …
We have to fundamentally change our Entire society; this includes our “ideas” about what society ‘should’ be — I’m not all the way sure if our society Understands or Accepts this yet. We are the majority; ‘but’ we continue to allow the FEW to control the Many; Listen; if I was a billionaire, I’d actually …
Americans Need Education to stop covid19. Conspiracy theories are real; but unfortunately not ‘everybody’ knows what they are talking about, when it comes to these … Discernment matters So much right now. I encourage you all to get EDUCATED about this; the more EDUCATED we become the faster we can FIGHT This and Win. GO …
Some strange Irony here… Got into a ‘debate/argument’ with a white lady who’s part of the ‘push’ to #ReOpenCalifornia :: like many of these whites from Orange County – an Affluent area of California, they are pushing a narrative that THEY need their jobs back too. I for one; am skepitcal; I know too much; …

I’ve been fussing and frustrated through the covid19 experience. There have been far too many people who are Entirely uninformed, but want to argue with those who are very informed. It’s annoying. My Apologies if it seems like I’ve been ‘fussin’ at y’all; but … I have ………. been trying to grapple with all of …
I understand entirely why white people don’t believe white privilege exists. As usual, when the term ‘white people’ is used it does not apply to ‘all’ white people. Several actually do acknowledge this reality, while many others refuse to. But I fully understand. I want to dive into a few of those reasons – but …

The coronavirus could inspire much needed change in America. I was looking into Singapore and how they are dealing with all of this. They have a reputation for being one of the Cleanest cities in all the world. And it shows – they have a SUPER LOW number of infections and last I checked – …
