( ThyBlackMan.com) Years ago I told a great many people that Eddie Long was a homosexual pretender and pedophile who would end up with AIDS and he did. Now he is gone, New Birth’s insurance company paid out millions of dollars to 4 of the young men he sexually molested and a whole lot of people still attended New Birth and defended Long to the death. People wake up and stop being so gullible just because you like the man. If the message is poison your admiration, love and infatuation for the...

( ThyBlackMan.com) Eating healthier doesn’t have to be complicated or mean making major and agonizing changes to your diet. Despite dynamic diet plans and health goals, experts agree that a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is the healthiest one. Fruits and vegetables form the foundation of a healthy diet as they are a powerhouse of vitamins, nutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and water as well as they are low in calories.

Working out and getting in shape is a priority for many.

ThyBlackMan.com) Donald Trump has left Washington, but only in physical form. His mischievous specter still haunts that fortified cemetery where our Constitution and all our alleged norms have been interred in shallow graves. No one is talking about America’s No. 1  Matlock fan. You would never know that * is president. DC’s denizen can’t move on. They don’t  want to move on. Look what they have to move onto, two years of utter failure with that desiccated old zombie at the helm s...

( ThyBlackMan.com) Joe Biden cares deeply about jobs, just ask him. He speaks constantly about how his administration will create millions of them, he just offers no specifics as to how. Meanwhile, his actions have already cost more than 11,000 jobs. But fear not, recently laid off pipeline builders, Biden has a plan, the Wimpy plan – he’ll gladly hire you Tuesday for ending your job today. “Wimpy” was the character in Popeye, J. Wellington Wimpy, who was always broke and described as ...

Last week, we covered the challenge President Joe Biden faces in his supposed quest to return to an era of civility.

ThyBlackMan.com) I guess that it was the convergence of many issues that silenced my pen this past MLK day. This was the first time that my pen remained dormant regarding Dr. King on this day of remembrance. Now, I do not want you to jump to any conclusions that I oppose the philosophies or goals of Dr. King. I do not. In fact, Dr. King’s steadfast belief in The Gospel is a position that I aspire to reach. I am unashamed to admit that I have not reached that destination. Ironically, the cata...

( ThyBlackMan.com) Let’s hope that the first week of the Biden administration amplifies and accelerates his voters’ regret heading into the 2022 and 2024 election cycle. The domestic, economic, and foreign successes of the Trump administration are being deep-sixed by Biden to the detriment of the Americanpeople.  The first week can be summed up in three words:  devastation, lawlessness, and injustice. Devastation: Joe Biden cancelled the Keystone Pipeline destroying thousands of high pay...

ThyBlackMan.com) After graduating from Morehouse, I was introduced to Reggae Artist Linton Kwesi Johnson and his song  Five Nights of Bleeding.  At the end of each verse he would say: “ It’s war amongst the rebels, madness, madness, war.” Presently, I can see no more of a fitting description of the 2021 environment in the United States than that. Unless you have been behind a rock and regardless of political affiliation, rapid changes are occurring that if not checked, may turn our grea...

It is time that Black men apologized to Black women.
