Ted Williams: Not So Shiny & New
Posted in Media, reality tv, tagged Black Men, golden voice, recovery, ted williams on March 13, 2011 | 1 Comment »
When things are shiny & new, everyone wants a piece. I’m happy that Ted was “discovered” & I’m VERY happy that he is in recovery now but it’s a shame how it all played out for him under the media pressure. Shame on Kraft, The Cavaliers & them other bitches who dropped Ted like a [...]

Posted in African-Americans, AfroSpear, AfroSphere, Life, Media, Movies, News, Racism, Transformers on July 8, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I never watched the Transformers television animated series nor read the Marvel comic books. I saw the first film with my cousin who was a fan, but I didn’t think much of it. I had no intention of seeing the latest Transformers release, but the vitriolic comments in support of the movie after Tafari posted this article on the racism within [...]
