Karriem Holman commented on George Davis's blog post 'What’s the Best Way to Fight Racism?'

Once upon a time, I only thought about this proposition, as a I was a young proponent of "pro-Black" everything. In time I have grown to see that not all white people are racist, and that some of them can be agents of change in making this society m…

Urban Universe Productions commented on Karriem Holman's blog post 'Health Care Reform: What Took So Long?'

Very interesting take on how the stars aligned for this one. I agree it's about time the Dems got down to business! It will take a nation of bloggers to remind people about the obstructionists that voted against it in November so keep writing! Big t…

Health Care Reform: What Took So Long?

We finally got health care passed and it didn't cost the President one of his, well, you know what I mean. Now comes the easy part, what the White House should have been doing the entire year, which is selling the strong points of his health care b…

Urban Universe Productions replied to Karriem Holman's discussion 'Obama Backlash, Mass. Senate Race and Tea Baggers'

You are right Karriem. One of the key issues is the fact that large news media outlets are dying and because advertising dollars are being shifted to online media. What does this have to do with Tea Party Republicans? Well... it's a story with drama…

Obama Backlash, Mass. Senate Race and Tea Baggers

So who is going to call what's going on in Massachusetts what it is?I will. Straight up racist, xenophobic nonsense from a minute sector of America who are opposed to the President, his efforts to reform health care and everything else. While the vo…

Neutralize Sen. Lieberman Now...Health Care Reform Must Pass in '09

Can someone please tell me how Sen. Joe Lieberman I-Connecticut) was allowed to live politically after opposing President Obama during the election, and narrowly getting re-elected in 2006? I mean, really, Ned Lamont. How could you, man? And I know for damn sure the American people are not going to allow him to shut down health care reform out of his responsibility to protect the insurance industry, which probably accounts for up to 80% of Connecticut's revenue stream. I don't blame him for doin… Continue

I am going to use this forum to highlight from time to time the real stories of Detroit that will point to our city's coming re… Continue

At What Cost Will Health Care Reform Come?

Health Care Conundrum is Close To End Game

46+ million Americans are currently without health care coverage or insurance of any kind.

Republicans and the far right believe that any effort by the govt to provide a state run health consortium to those uninsured would take away and or slash access to services for those already covered.

As people of color, we should be the biggest group of Americans demanding a 'public option', but curiously enough the White House has not yet engaged it's perhaps… Continue

Wow....A Brand New President: It Is Not a Game

Reporting from Washington it's the K-Nice Report. Actually I am in Washington Heights, but who's really checkin'? My dear friend Dave, has been harassing me about writing, and I promised that I would get something up before my ghetto pass got revoked, so here it is--

WE HAVE A NEW PRESIDENT, AND HE'S A STRAIGHT UP, 100%, BONA FIDE BROTHA...note that I didn't say negro, or black man, or any other descriptive, but brotha. How in the heck did this happen? I mean, don't we still live in the… Continue
