R.I.P Bhutto

an intelligent, powerful woman is killed...


Benazir Bhutto's death was not a result of being shot but rather injuries she suffered when hitting her vehicle's sunroof, it has been claimed. Most recent reports say she died of a fractured skull after hitting her head on part of her car's sun roof and not as a result of a bullet or bomb shrapnel, which have been some of the causes being claimed by the media. According to recent reports, Pakistan officials have claimed they have intelligence that Al Qaeda are to blame for the assasination of Benazir Bhutto. The 'intelligence' is said to be cited from a 'tapped' phone call which revealed that the killing had been ordered by "al-Qaeda leader" Baitullah Mehsud.

SAY NO TO UGGS!!!



uggs have never been in style and never will be in style, and by the amount of those stupid boots that i see on everybody and their mommas feet...i guess people will continue to think they are. we went to the mall the other day and i swear every other person had them on...different colored ones (tacky), on girls with skirts (the worse), and even on this one old man who wore them with cargo shorts (eeew!). what has the world come to??!!

Thanks Mr. Bush


Every day, the U.S gives more than $7,023,288 (our tax dollars) to the Israeli government and military, and no money to the Palestinians. This money is used toward the torture, and killing of innocent Palestinians. Ethnic cleansing is their motive. This is another example of apartheid, just like the history of South Africa.

StuCk iN a tiMe CapSule

MaRiO CuoMo speech at the 1984 democratic conventiOn "A Tale of twO cities" has to be one of the BEST political speeches...its amaziNg to see that a speech performed 23years ago can still be applied tO today's society. What the Fu*Ks up with ouR government were definitely in desperate need of a chaNge...








FUCK BUSH!!!!!

WHY?

Don Imus is back on radio. i guess calling women, "nappy-headed hoes" among other names, isnt enough to get a white man fired. This racist and sexist world wins again.

Phife Dawg


if anyone tuned in to watch Hip Hop Honors on VHI and wondered if Phife from Tribe Called Quest was sick, then you were right. He has Type 2 diabetes and is suffering from kidney failure that requires dialysis. Im hoping that he gets better soon. For all u hip hip heads out there, you know it would be really sad to lose some of the great conributors to Hip Hop (J Dilla)... we cant lose Phife either

"The Great DebateRs"
release date: December 25 2007

A film produced by Oprah (my FaV) and directed by Denzel Washington based on a true story of Melvin B. Tolson, who while at Wiley college formed an all black debate team who for the first time beat Harvard university. After winning the debate African American students enrollment became more accepting among other colleges and universities...Its mos definitely a uplifting film cant wait to see it...






"Lars and the Real Girl"
released date: October 25 2007



In appearance the movie seems like another ridiculous American comedy, when in reality the film carries on a deeper message. It is based on the sense of touch and how Americans rarely get to enjoy and appreciate this sense. In the film character Lars is in search of a companion and orders a sex doll from the Internet but Sex is not what Lars has in mind. Lars wants a deep meaningful relationship. This film is an exact example of the American society and how we seem to be so concerned about materialistic things that we forget to appreciate the simple things in life like the sense of touch.

Fakes, Liars, Fronters etc.

I learned something this weekend. What seems cool and dandy on the outside, is in fact artificial and ugly on the inside. I guess calling girls groupies seems to be the cool thing to do these days. If that makes you feel better then fine.

Assata ("she who struggles") Shakur ("thankful one")




Assata Shakur is a mother, revolutionary, artist, writer, activist, grandmother, and political prisoner. She is a victim of the US government's policy toward people of color. In 1973 she was arrested and put in jail, by an all white jury. Assata was granted asylum, and is now in Cuba. Federal authorities have labeled her a "domestic terrorist" on the same list as Bin Laden. Although the US has done everything in its power to criminalize Shakur, she is not a criminal, nor has she ever been one. Free all political prisoners! Do your research. Spread the word.

Close GuantanamO Bay Now!!!!!


Wow wake up America were experiencing a Holocaust. For the past five years hundreds of innocent people have been held as prisoners in torture halls better known as Guantanamo Bay. The prisoners are held without fair trials and are kept in inhuman conditions. Guantanamo Bay is just another way for Bush to torture and abuse middle eastern people. This must be stopped. If our right to a fair trial is being taken now whats next our freedom of speech...dO your research...
Bush = Hitler
Guantanamo Bay = Holocaust
