Ever since Joe Biden got into the race, I’ve been thinking a lot about his track record as well. Joe Biden probably has the highest name ID of the candidates right now, a development which actually worries me a […]

I watched Taylor Swift’s performance at the Billboard awards and I was disappointed. I didn’t realize the similarities until I saw them side by side. Beyonce did her performance purposefully as an homage to HBCUs […]
