President Obama, lets move forward…

Tweet (Akiit.com) After listening to President Barack Obama’s remarks at the recent Congressional Black Caucus Dinner, I couldn’t help but compare some of the responses to what we’ve been hearing from the Tea Party and their master party – the Republicans in Congress – and a few disgruntled Democrats, who with few exceptions, were very […]

Dr. Conrad Murray’s guilty, Yes MJ saga…

Tweet (Akiit.com) I have no doubt that Michael Jackson was the greatest entertainer of all time. But I also have no doubt that he was partly to blame for his own “timely” death. Of course, I appreciate that for most of his fans these two points are irreconcilable. Therefore, all I’m going to say about […]

In Search of The Great White GOP Hope…

President tries to win over Conservatives…

Tweet (Akiit.com) There was a spectacle in Iowa last week. It was a demeaning spectacle in which President Obama got into a heated argument with Ryan Rhodes – a leading member of the state’s ultra-conservative Tea Party Movement. It makes little difference what the argument was about. My objection flows from the fact that it […]

President Obama Re-Election Problem…

Tweet (Akiit.com) Democratic presidential candidate Obama faced the problem. President Obama faces the problem. And now President Obama in his re-election bid faces the problem. The majority of whites still will not accept his presidency. The latest Associated Press-GfK polls once again told in stark numbers that the racial gap is just as big and […]

Will Politicians Listen to Pastors?

Tweet (Akiit.com) The way you think and feel about the world is shaped by what you see when you get out of bed in the morning. I remember hearing this from civil rights activists. It simply means that perspective is hugely determined by place, context, and vantage point. This is profoundly true for me and […]
