Damn, Am I Racist?

Posted by Seattle Washington on January 11, 2011 - 35 Comments
Cultural Issues

Well, prejudiced.  Biased even.  As my more earthy, Afro-centric brethren once told me, the term “racist” denotes a source of power. And as far as I know, I’m not wealthy nor am I the “man.” Nonetheless, I was talking to a co-worker the other day and I had a bit of an epiphany about my [...]

Stop Complaining About the N-Word

Posted by Miss Jenkins on August 23, 2010 - 28 Comments
Cultural Issues

Seriously. I am sick of it. You should be too. I have a secret to share with you people. Yes, all you people. All you White people, Black people, Latino people, Asian people and any other “you people” who have heard the word, used the word, don’t like the word, or could care less. Ready? Here [...]

Black People Are Damned If We React & Damned If We Don’t

Posted by Miss Jenkins on May 3, 2010 - 30 Comments
Race

If you have time, please check out the links I put in the post. Last week, a Harvard law student expressed her views on genetics and intelligence in an email that hit the internet like a ton of virus-infused bricks. Check out this excerpt: I absolutely do not rule out the possibility that African Americans [...]

Should We Be Offended?

Posted by Miss Jenkins on March 1, 2010 - 71 Comments
Race

We live in very “diverse” society. Although I hate that word, it is one of the best ways to describe this little melting pot of cultural and ethnic goodness that we call America. As a result of all the mixing and mating mingling of people, we are all bound to pick up pieces of what [...]

It Ain’t That Serious…

**Don’t forget to check out the Modern Day Matchmaker video below this post!** Unless you live in a cave I’m pretty sure you’re aware that the Superbowl was this past Sunday.  Actually, I take that back, because I’m pretty sure even Bin Laden invited some of his closest infidel friends over for hot tea and [...]

Biting the Bullet

Posted by Miss Jenkins on September 21, 2009 - 66 Comments
Race

Being Black in America (No Soledad O’Brien) is interesting. Its a blessing to live in a country that once enslaved Black folks, yet elected a Black man to the country’s highest office just decades after Blacks and Whites could not marry, attend the same schools or eat at the same lunch tables.  ::two slow hand [...]

Can Minorities Be Racist?

Posted by Miss Jenkins on July 21, 2009 - 75 Comments
Cultural Issues, Race

Miss Jenkins note:  This post is about some of my thoughts on racism.  Please don’t misconstrue my ideas about any particular race or another.  I believe that all people, regardless of race or ethnicity deserve the same respect.  We are all God’s children. Now, let the racy conversation begin.  No pun intended.  And shout out [...]

“My Head is Bloody, But Unbowed”

Posted by Seattle Washington on May 13, 2009 - 41 Comments
Introspection & Mental

As you may or may not have noticed, I’ve been missing in action this past week. Unfortunately it was not in pursuit of something as invaluable and brilliant as Ms. Jenkins’ law degree. In fact, it was the complete opposite. Your boy got jumped. As a result, I’ve been laid up and sort of reclusive. [...]
