		<title>America, Where Is The Love?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Compassion is seen as a weakness in the United States.  In fact, if you watch Fox News long enough you'll be brainwashed into believing compassion is "un-American."  You care about the welfare of beings other than yourself? What the heck are you - a socialist?]]></description>

		<title>Top 5 Dead or Alive</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ever since Pac and Big died, we've heard emcees constantly attempt to include themselves on the "Top 5 Dead or Alive" rapper list.  Hip Hop fans have compared their personal Top 5 lists with those of their peers, debating about the merits and flaws on each others' bill.  While it's definitely been fun to participate in the Great Hip Hop debate, I've found it more exciting to broaden the "Top 5 Dead or Alive" discussion to encompass history's most revolutionary figures. ]]></description>

		<title>Why The N-Word, Saggy Pants, and Ignorant Rappers Won&#8217;t Die</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you're a member of the Hip Hop Generation, three relentless fires have burned in your debate circle for the past two decades: the n-word, saggy pants, and ignorant ass rappers. For sure, you've been unable to escape the controversies surrounding these topics. ]]></description>

		<title>Between Martin, Malcolm, and Modern</title>
		<description><![CDATA[martin-luther-king-and-malcolm-x1Oftentimes I find myself pondering who I would have faithfully followed during the turbulent Civil Rights Era.  Would I have been a loyal supporter of Dr. King's nonviolent resistance?    Or would I have sided with brother Malcolm X in his militant approach to Black Nationalism?]]></description>

		<title>Haiti and Apocalyptic Politics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Watching the current rally calls and pledges of aid to Haiti as a result of this unfathomable natural disaster, I can't help but to feel proud that citizens across the world feel compassion for our wounded brothers and sisters.  This makes me smile, only not too bright. ]]></description>

		<title>Finding Progression in Assimilation Nation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Growing up in the United States, it is impossible to escape the implicit and explicit tenets of White Supremacy that embed themselves in the subconscious of every American.  While the engine of this domineering machine is not as robust as it was in its heyday of slavery, Reconstruction, and Jim Crow, it now drives on autopilot through the daily thoughts and interactions of all citizens.  Many Black people subtly conform to White Supremacist doctrines and even frown upon those Negroes that make the conscious decision not to support its continuation.  Though well-intentioned, these folks confuse Black progression with assimilation into "mainstream" society; as a race we need to understand the difference in order to advance.]]></description>

		<title>Slamming Sammy Sellout Teaches Us A Lesson</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The perpetual optimist, I am ever so grateful to Sammy Sosa Sellout for giving me a platform to discuss the overarching problems that are indicative of his predicament.  First, as a man of mixed Negro and Latino heritage I must address the problem of race misidentifcation in the Black and Hispanic community.]]></description>

		<title>Tyler Perry: Cunning or Cooning?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nobody in Hollywood can hold a candle to Tyler Perry's meteoric rise to stardom in the last decade.  From niche market gospel plays to Black blockbuster bravado, Perry is the American Dream realized - a rags to riches phenomenon.  Despite Tyler Perry's cinematic and syndicated success, anchored in applying Christian family values to modern day strife, there are those who choose to label the brother a sell-out.]]></description>

		<title>Constructing The Blueprint for Black Male Success</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Prior to September 12th 2009, had someone  told me the blueprint for Black male success would arise from the state of Iowa I would have labeled them mentally deficient.  Invited to share my expertise on the topic "The New Grinding: Expanding Your Consciousness as Your Life's Work," I was nonetheless excited to impart the merits of entrepreneurship to a group that seldom receives this message.  It mattered not that this Fall retreat, titled "What's Stopping Us Now?", was being hosted for an assemblage of less than 50 students.  I was eager to participate in The Hubbard Group's revolutionary approach to fostering a sense of Black collegiate community.]]></description>
