Surely not white people! So why do white people sensationalize black people's problems and issues trying to appeal to someones morality sense? Who's morality sense are these people trying to appeal to? White people gun down black children in the streets for fun! Black people kill each other mainly because of economic deprivation. Who should care about the rape of black women that you should post this article? Black people are really the only people who can empathize with black women being raped! Every other non black people has already proven that their race matters more than having empathy for black people!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">White Supremacy Is Injustice!</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 13 Aug 2016 13:18:59 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Psychology Today Article Claims Black Women Are “Less Attractive”</title><link>http://www.rolandsmartin.com/blog/index.php/2011/05/16/psychology-today-article-claims-black-women-are-less-attractive/#comment-2572748280</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I don't want to add to that.

During the War Between the States, Southerners were labeled "Rebels", "Insurrectionists", and "Traitors", by the Federals (US Government). As such, this was the justification to invade, and wage war against the South. There is really no difference today with the US Government labeling those who oppose US interference and invasion of their homes, as "Terrorists." The British did the same to the Irish, whom they invaded and waged war against. It's "demonizing" the opposition in order to gain support for executing adverse action against another. Age old tactic. As for Mr. Martin's modern day comparison of Confederate soldiers, to Middle Eastern "Terrorists" ? Ignorant. There is no modern day application of "terrorist" that can be applied to Confederate soldiers. This ignorant attempt to equate the two, is merely trouble making and race baiting. If he can succeed in planting a seed of hostility in the minds of people, he can expand upon it with further race baiting. This is a very foolish game to play. The nation is divided enough as it is. A continuous bombardment of "shaming", race baiting, and trouble making, can get out of control very quickly. So, if it's not intended to ignite that already smoldering powder keg...I would strongly urge Mr. Martin, and those who find his sort of bantering acceptable, to consider reigning in this sort of swill. It can easily blow up in one's face. Behave Mr. Martin.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Mike Arnold</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 22 Feb 2016 00:46:16 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Roland, TJMS, 07.20.10: Roland S.

Many in the Black community refuse to admit that we have sellout's in the Black Elite that reaches to the White House and beyond. This is a story that is like a bad video (Training Day) with Denzel Washington. But, it involves Rev. Anythony L. Trufant of Emmannuel Baptist Church of Clinton Hill, Brooklyn NYC. The Right REV's wife is Muriel Goode-Trufant Esq, Chief/EEO Officer at NYC's Law Dept. Ms. Goode-Trufant is the Daughter of former Mayor of Philly and Black sellout Wilson Goode. Other members of Emmannel Church are Jacqueline Berrien Chair of the Corrupt and/or Rogue EEOC HQ's in Washington DC and friend of the First Lady Michelle Roberson-Obama friends from Harvard Law School. Michelle Roberson-Obama was special assistance to the most corrupt Mayor and/or family in Chicago the Daley's for 18 months. Richard Daley (brother of Mayor Daley of Chicago and Michelle Roberson-Obama's former BOSS) was one of Obama's chief of staff at the White House (Later Replaced). Berrien and Goode-Trufant use Emmanuel Church to recruit Young Black Female lawyers to undermine the Black community. Rev. Trufant on Sunday Morning Good Friday last year (2012) praised Berrien to the church for undermining the Black community with the help of his wife daughter of sellout ex-mayor Wilson Goode. Attorney's are recruited from the church and trained to sellout the Black community in the Law Dept's of New York City and/or EEOC. They recieve internship at the EEOC and the Legal dept's of the city of New York. Later they're hired as staff attorney's at the aforementioned.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jacqeuline Berrien's husband Peter Williams received his Job at Megar Ever College thur Goode-Trufant's husband. The recruits by Ms. Goode-Trufant paid tides to her husband the Right Rev. Trufant.

Just take a look at the pictures that ousted him with the church. They are messy, even for a married couple on a public beach. Dude has his hand down her swimsuit and she's busting out of it without his assistance. I'm not catholic, and still I wouldn't want my religious leader and his WIFE on a public beach making a scene with PDA like that! SMH!&lt;br&gt;What happened to "lawful" but not "expedient" as Paul told the church of Corinth? What happened to "be ye holy, for I am holy"?&lt;br&gt;The Catholic church has so many rules, people forget to follow the rules in the actual Bible. Thank God for grace, but let's not abuse it and make light of our sins.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My mom always says, that which is done in darkness will come to the light and it's what you do in the dark -- when you think no one is watching -- that reveals your true character. Hopefully, this story will bring more people to respect the faith instead of those that purport to uphold it. It's nice Cutie wrote a book, but I'm still stuck on a 66-book bestseller.

No &lt;br&gt;surprise.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;From US Supreme  Court Justice Sotomayor's dissent, IN FAVOR &lt;br&gt;OF BUCK: “In this case, first on direct examination by the defense, Dr. Quijano &lt;br&gt;merely identified race as one statistical factor and pointed out that &lt;br&gt;African-Americans were over represented in the criminal justice system; he did &lt;br&gt;not state a causal relationship, nor did he link this statistic to Buck as an &lt;br&gt;individual”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In fact, the opposite &lt;br&gt;occurred. Dr. Quijano's testimony was about Buck's reduced risk of future &lt;br&gt;danger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The alleged racist component from the trial never &lt;br&gt;existed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sotomayor attempted to &lt;br&gt;create a racism based claim, by taking a prosecutor's inference out of context, &lt;br&gt;an inference which never stated that Buck was at future danger based upon race, &lt;br&gt;as Dr. Quijano stated that Buck was at reduced risk of re offending and never &lt;br&gt;stated that Buck had an elevated risk because of race.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"Moreover, the &lt;br&gt;prosecutor did not revisit the race-related testimony in closing or ask the jury &lt;br&gt;to find future dangerousness based on Buck’s race." (2).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even Texas Court Of &lt;br&gt;Criminal Appeals (TCCA) Justice Alcala  (3) , who dissented, IN FAVOR OF Buck, &lt;br&gt;recognized Sotomayor's obvious error:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alcala writes: "As to (Buck's) &lt;br&gt;second claim (based upon racism) , I conclude that (Buck) has failed to make out &lt;br&gt;a prima facie case for discriminatory intent in the prosecution's decision to &lt;br&gt;seek the death penalty in his case." (3).  "intent".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alcala thought this &lt;br&gt;such  a minor issue that she didn't even bother to respond to the claim in the &lt;br&gt;body of her opinion, but only in a footnote (3).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That is how untruthful Buck supporters have been.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Death Penalty opponents fabricated a dishonest claim of racism. Despicable &lt;br&gt;but  nothing new (1, 5 &amp;amp; 6).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;balance at&lt;br&gt;prodpinnc.blogspot&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dudley Sharp</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 30 Nov 2013 07:42:32 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Roland Martin And Wife, Jacquie Hood Martin Get Personal With Deya Direct (VIDEO)</title><link>http://www.rolandsmartin.com/blog/index.php/2011/04/21/roland-martin-and-wife-jacquie-hood-martin-get-personal-with-deya-direct-video/#comment-1115841808</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hay.

Many in the Black community refuse to admit that we have sellout's in the Black Elite that reaches to the White House and beyond. This is a story that is like a bad video (Training Day) with Danzel Washington. But, it involves Rev. Anythony L. Trufant of Emmannuel Baptist Church of Clinton Hill, Brooklyn NYC. The Right REV's wife is Muriel Goode-Trufant Esq, Chief/EEO Officer at NYC's Law Dept. Ms. Goode-Trufant is the Daughter of former Mayor of Philly and Black sellout Wilson Goode. Other members of Emmannel Church are Jacqueline Berrien Chair of the Corrupt and/or Rogue EEOC HQ's in Washington DC and friend of the First Lady Michelle Roberson-Obama friends from Harvard Law School. Michelle Roberson-Obama was special assistance to the most corrupt Mayor and/or family in Chicago the Daley's for 18 months. Richard Daley (brother of Mayor Daley of Chicago and Michelle Roberson-Obama's former BOSS) was one of Obama's chief of staff at the White House (Later Replaced). Berrien and Goode-Trufant use Emmanuel Church to recruit Young Black Female lawyers to undermine the Black community. Rev. Trufant on Sunday Morning Good Friday last year (2012) praised Berrien to the church for undermining the Black community with the help of his wife daughter of sellout ex-mayor Wilson Goode. Attorney's are recruited from the church and trained to sellout the Black community in the Law Dept's of New York City and/or EEOC. They recieve internship at the EEOC and the Legal dept's of the city of New York. Later they're hired as staff attorney's at the aforementioned.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">ricohenry7</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 28 Oct 2013 21:09:20 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
