    Black Men : Soft, effeminate manhood has GOT to GO!

    On seeing the title. I assumed it was just going to be an anti-gay rant. However, it turns out to be an essay about irresponsible and vain heterosexual men, and really has nothing to do with a person's masculine identity at all. There are plenty of "masculine" looking- and acting men who...

    Omowale Jabali : The Black Conservative Agenda

    That sounds interesting. I tried to find that show on the c-span site, but I don't think it's available for download. There's a description of the show here: In Depth with Shelby Steele , first aired April 2. I don't think black people can or should be expected to agree on everything, or...

    Credit History This is excellent advice. It is also recommended that you obtain a full credit report at least once a year, just to see what companies can see on your credit. The report will list any missed payments, all credit cards you own and other loans, as well as what companies have...

    Black People : TO MAKE A HURRICANE

    Black People : Katrina planned 4 years ago!

    I read the entire transcript. There is no implication whatsoever that the hurricane was "planned" four years ago. The possibility of such a storm was predicted four years ago, there's a BIG difference. A weatherman who forecasts that it will rain tomorrow, is not causing it to rain.

    Black People : TO MAKE A HURRICANE

    There is no "proof", only a theory, and not a particularly convincing one at that. What is so difficult about the following (obvious) scenario: 1. Nature created the hurricane. 2. Man screwed up the planning, preparation and aftermath. The whole idea of creating and controlling a...

    Black People : Was katrina Planned??

    The greenhouse effect is not "controlling" the weather, it is an inadvertant side effect of pollution and deforestation. Earthquakes? Floods? There were floods in the news just recently: google floods, europe

    Black People : TO MAKE A HURRICANE

    Apples and oranges. That's like asking, if they can land on the moon, why not Pluto? These are vastly different accomplishments.
