Almost everyone has been talking about Iceland lately. For one reason or another, whoever is in charge of their public relations wants more people to know about their feminist country. Maybe it’s to boost their tourism? So, I decided to explore this reserved island in the Arctic that doesn’t even need a standing army. Yet, they’ve managed to sit in one of the top five spots on the United Nations Human Development Index for what seems like forever.
The History of Violence & Ethnological Discrimination in Europe
I said this in one of my recent blogs talking about transforming victimhood to heroism. Ever since I moved to Europe, I’ve spent a lot of time visiting museums, historical landmarks, and taking in their history. When you step back and look at it, Caucasian history is overflowing with thousands of years of ethological based ferocity…
African Identity Stripped from Black Folk – A Facebook Discussion with DJ Mike Stoan III
DJ Mike Stoan: Hmmmmm, why not join all of them then? Freddy Will: Tracing your ancestry to Africa is easy, bro. Once you get to Africa, the lineage goes even further back. My entire family consists of Loko, Mende, Fula, Temne, and Mandingo tribes. Due to intermigration, intermarriage, tribal wars, Continue Reading
African Identity Stripped from Black Folk – A Facebook Discussion with DJ Mike Stoan II
Our dialogue proceeded as I tried to reassure every black person reading the post. It doesn’t matter if you are Afro-European, Afro-Asian, African American, Caribbean, or wherever your parents had you. If you return to Africa, your people will receive you warmly and reintegrate you into African society. Some may Continue Reading
African Identity Stripped from Black Folk – A Facebook Discussion with DJ Mike Stoan
This conversation began when DJ Mike Stoan posted a meme on his wall. The meme read: “Black people were stripped of our identity when we were brought here, and it’s been a quest since then to define who we are.” – Spike Lee. Fascinated (as I always am with many Continue Reading
What is African? And What is Considered Africa?
I will define Africa as the land of many kingdoms. I believe this is one of the leading components of our motherland. What makes it even more uncommon is the evidence. Every region of the continent holds people from different ethnic groups. For example, there are 500 other tribes in Continue Reading
A Discussion about What it’s Like to be Black in Canada
In my opinion, racism is a lot more subtle in Canada. But once you look past the subtlety, you see it’s right in your face. Remember that in Canada, many white people are first, second, or third-generation Europeans. If you didn’t know, you should become aware that not all but Continue Reading
A Discussion about What it’s Like to be Black in Germany
African people are expressing similar concerns in Europe as in other parts of the world, showing that racism is systemic globally. It’s not just a few white people ignorant of blacks and immigrants. It’s a systemic fabrication that a Caucasian-dominated society has deeply entrenched in the world’s culture. Not to Continue Reading
Food for Thought from the Movie “Hidden Colors”
In 3000 BC, Egyptians believed in a mystical character. His name was Horus. They thought a virgin named Mary gave birth to him on December 25. According to 3000 BC Egyptian fables, a star in the east symbolized the birth of Horus. They said three wise kings came to adore Continue Reading
The Black Man
Racists do not realize how ignorant they are. They victimize others by keeping annals against the victim’s situation. Racists have no remorse for their race’s horrendous crimes against the Aborigines, Africans, Arabs, Asians, or Indian people. And they cling to the idea that those they berate deserve it. They blame Continue Reading
Grenada (The Introduction)
I have a lot to learn about the origin of this great civilization. Therefore I may not be the most prudent narrator of the account of an island in the Caribbean. I will approach this as a student of this culture. I am someone who marvels at the customs of Continue Reading
Emancipation & Repatriation
For the most part, the United States, Great Britain, and France enslaved West Africans. Religious groups and abolitionists launched demonstrations charging that slavery was a crime against humanity. That tumultuous historical moment ended after the global effort for some Blacks to return to Africa. Despite that, many Whites still supported Continue Reading

We are losing our most talented icons in a hurry. In the last decade, we’ve lost enough icons | from the United States | to where it’s not as shocking when the news breaks. James Brown, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Natalie Cole, Bobbi Kristina Brown, B. B. King, Robin Williams, Continue Reading
