Women March but were Black Women Played? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

But who exactly was making history and what was/is the real agenda behind this mantra of women united?

Naysayers are questioning the real intent or hidden agenda behind this Women’s march on Washington; when historically speaking, the Feminist movement was just another method of “divide and conquer” the black family. Black women were only ever included to boost their numbers with no real benefit.

The traditional feminist movement isn’t really advocating for Black women or other women of color, white feminists have enlisted women of color to fight a battle that’s not entirely theirs to fight.

When in all reality, black women should not feed the dysfunction of devaluing the black male presence and authority of being absent from a family structure.

Old-Time Slave Code…Is it still in Effect? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

ab229_burns2-jpg-resize-710x399The oldest U.S. slave laws are found in the State of Virginia. There is a publication entitled The Statutes at Large; Being a Collection of all the Laws of Virginia, volume 2 (1823) by William W. Henning. This publication contains the Virginia Slave Codes. Among these codes is a document, dated October of 1669, which is entitled “An act about the casual killing of slaves”.

Under the 4th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, when a law enforcement officer is pursuing a suspect, the officer may apply deadly force to prevent escape if he or she has “probable cause” to believe that the suspect poses a threat. Needless to say, it is very difficult to prove that a law enforcement officer does not have “probable cause”.

Those terms, which delude to slavery, were defined as objects of commercial trade in the Law of Nations. This definition carried over into the U.S. slave laws and later on, into the various statues that are in effect today. A slave is one who is void of a nationality, as nationality determines one’s political status and a slave has no political rights. The nationality of Moors was taken away from them in 1774 and the words “negro”, “black” and “colored” were given to Asiatics, of America, who were of Moorish descent.

The conversation never STOPS!!!.

Black Women Need Not Apply…Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

Some black men don’t want to date, marry or fall in love with a black woman. And as shocking as this may sound, believe it or not, some men prefer to date outside of their race. There are several reasons for this and for the most part, it’s self-hatred.

In her written blog post, Tamyara Brown states:

“I live in a world where pale skin is accepted and dark skin isn’t for women. I don’t want my daughter from the day she is born called ugly. It is why I rather marry a Latina, or Asian woman she is guaranteed to be beautiful.”

tamyara_brownTune-in tonight at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio, as I sit down with author, blogger and writer Tamyara Brown (pictured left) as we talk about her powerful written piece “Black Women Need Not Apply“.

she concludes:

“I realize after reading this passage from the letter society, ourselves as African American people have followed this to the very letter. As a little girl growing up I can admit I thought being lighter was better. No one liked my skin complexion. In our defense we are trained more than we think. How can we feel good about not liking what God has created so beautifully?”………Tamyara Brown

Hate, Homophobia or the Word of God? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

hate_homophobia_wog_cos_jan_2017-2We’re back!!! And tonight’s “Conversation” is going to be hot !!!

As we discuss how more than 1 million people watched Kim Burrell rail against “that perverted homosexual spirit” in a controversial sermon clip that led to the gospel singer getting pulled from a performance on “Ellen” and facing ongoing backlash from LGBT advocates.

She had been named a co-honoree at BMI Trailblazers of Gospel Music Awards, but the organization uninvited her due to the recent remarks. Also, her radio show — airing out of Texas Southern University — has been canceled.

Burrell’s two-minute clip of her message, filmed on a phone and posted on YouTube, shows Burrell describing sex acts and saying, “The spirit of delusion and confusion, it has deceived many men and women, and it’s caused a stain on the body of Christ.”

Her critics said her message was hate, other media outlets called it a homophobic rant, while believers state it’s the Word of God.

What do you say?

Join me tonight at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio as I discuss “Hate, Homophobia or the Word of God?” with three (3) dynamic ministers; Rev. Caffie Risher, Minister Tuala Williams-Shields and Pastor Josh Olivero.

Why this Fear going into the New Year? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

mandela-fear-quoteSome of us have this fear in our hearts and in our spirits with uncertainty about the future. Everyone fears at some point in life however, our trust and faith must be bigger than our fears. The bigger your trust the smaller your fear becomes. And the more you trust the more you become a conduit for miracles.

The truth is, for most of us, fear is present on a regular basis, but the form in which it chooses to present itself is constantly changing. For some of us we experience fear in form of anxiety, a deep nervousness, confusion, a lack of motivation, uncertainty, or something unidentifiable deep within. In either case fear is magnified as a giant to overcome.

Since the 2016 election of president-elect Donald Trump, there are fears amongst people in this country regarding hate and violence in an already heightened society where injustices are present.

Join me tonight at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio for my final show of the year, for the discussion “fear going into the New Year?”
