This is an interesting topic. Joe Biden represents an older generation of Democrats. The type that is focused on a working class message. Although, as we learned in class, that working class message worked for […]

Good post, Adebola. There were previous precedents for the presidency, but despite the attraction of the third party how likely is it for them to win? Also, what about the roles of “movement” politics? […]

In this blog post, I just wanted to express my thoughts and revelations from listening to, reading, and analyzing Kendrick Lamar’s music. For anyone who doesn’t listen to hip-hop/rap, Kendrick is a Compton, […]

Thomas Jenkins commented on the post, Open for discussion: Response to the question of "What did Obama do for African Americans of this country?", on the site Lose Your Mother 6 years, 8 months ago

I have to agree with you that President Obama did instill within the Black community a hope stronger than ever before. I was only eight at the time of his election but I distinctly remember how excited and proud […]
Harvey Briscoe commented on the post, Jordan Peele, on the site Lose Your Mother 6 years, 8 months ago

This is a really great post. I think what Jordan Peele is doing amazing. In the past most horror film main lead actors have been white. Jordan Peele casting black people as the main lead is a way to get black […]

This is not just a black and white situation. Of course there are things that need to be addressed. To starts off, I do not think it was wrong to help fund the rebuilding of the Notre Dame cathedral. I think just […]

This is a very interesting view. In class, we briefly discussed a little about Barack Obama and his presidency. As stated by Cameron, we have not dissussed anything about what he is doing in his post-presidency. I […]
