THE 45th’s ORANGE AID PERSISTS – ‘The Delusional Pt.2’

Despite the ongoing racist rhetoric, lies, homophobic actions and misogynistic manner of a sexual predator posing as a Christian that occupies our White House, millions that voted for him still support and glorify his actions. This of course can only mean that the steadfast supporters, are just as despicable and delusional as he is, or blind and ignorant to his true plight – the advancement of Trump.

FUNKALICIOUS 200!! THE BREAKDOWN OF HANDKERCHIEF HEADS

Some television shows celebrate their 200th episode. Generally T-V programs will review and/ or reflect on shows past, when celebrating the 200th show. That’s very appropriate for television, and I suppose I could touch on a few of my favorite blogs over the past five years, but I believe speaking on public figures that are anti-FUNK or just plain FUNKED UP may be more intriguing.

Rosa Parks Is Honored With A Statue At The Capitol

Rosa Parks has become the first Black woman to be honored with a life-size statue in the Capitol. The statue of Mrs. Parks captures her waiting to be arrested on Dec. 1, 1955, after she refused to give up her seat for a white passenger on a crowded segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She is seated, dressed in a heavy wool coat and clutching her purse as she looks out of an unseen window waiting for the police.
