NYMetro Balancing Ockham’s Razor: the threat of imperialism, Libyan Extremism and democracy

By Rodney D. Coates*

Balancing on the precipice of Ockham’s Razor, the world debates on whether or not it should intervene in the Libyan crises. As we debate, a tyrant continues to bombard his citizens, but the question is can or should we –particularly in America – be doing something.

DC Area The Media’s Foreign Policy

The media does a grave injustice to their profession by attempting to give… Continue

NYMetro The Hip Hop Hustle: Why Hip Hop Hasn't Changed.

TRUTH Minista Paul Scott:

The year is 1991, alarmed by the raising level of negativity in Hip Hop, activists and artists from across the country gathered for a major Hip Hop Summit. One by one speakers stepped to the podium and pledged themselves to fight in the war to "save Hip Hop." Never again would they allow corporations to destroy their culture. Never again!

The only exception of this I have found are WGN-TV and The Chicago Defender that have specifically made…
