Read more "Cable News Network, CNN, announces name change to Caring Negro Network"YAY!!! I finally have a guest blog. Although, she is not one of the first people I asked to do a guest blog, she is the first one who actually did it. Hopefully The White Girl will spur my others to do their guest blog. But, The White Girl is a colleague of mine at […]
Read more "UNN Guest Post from The White Girl"I actually don’t have a lot to say other than point out the fact that this speech in Cincinatti at some NAACP convention it was one Obama’s more average and mediocre, generic speeches. I think the first half about governmental policies and the socio-economic structures that need changing was wonderful, and I personally think his […]
Read more "A Midnight (well, 11:04pm) Post on Obama’s NAACP Speech"Is this racist or not? I have cousins that live in rural areas and I remember for the longest that they didn’t have city water, but had dug their own wells. Here’s the July 11th story CNN story below: Residents of a mostly black neighborhood in rural Ohio were awarded nearly $11 million Thursday by a federal […]
Read more "Black community denied water for decades, jury says"Must have a lot on my mind, three posts in one night. I guess I’ve been missing these memo’s lately, like the one my host mother informed me about–you know the one where “hip hop come out of the prison culture” or that the neighborhood around Howard University is a bad neighborhood.

Those who try their best to engage in critical debate and […]
Read more "Philly Debrief Pt. II: Confronting Anti-Intelligence"I know AverageBro did a story about this and I figured I didn’t need to do a story about it, but today I saw today on CNN Headline News that some guy from Variety, who’s name I seem to be unable to recover from memory or from Google toss out this idea that TvOne’s decision […]
Read more "Unapologetic and Unashamed; TvOne’s Decision to solely air the DNC"This is actually a topic I’ve been dying to write, but I figured that it would take some time and that I had a lot to write about it, so bear with me as I gather my thoughts about this particular subject. It was Summer 2006 and I was finishing up at Fisk University my […]
Read more "Philly Debrief: Why I’m a Black African American"Sooooo….. As I was driving to Creation Fest last week, I saw something I don’t see everyday. Yeah, one of them. And it was white to boot. I have very mixed feelings about lawn jockeys. I did a quick Wikipedia review, and my confusions were echoed there as well. The article was saying that essentially […]
Read more "Something You Don’t See Everyday: A White Lawn Jockey"The Uppity Negro Network, going against traditional Christian love and sympathy is mildly rejoicing at the death of former North Carolina Sen. Jesse Helms. The following is from Not Southern Belle, but Southern Snob where she received the following top ten, only worthy to be reproduced yet again on UNN: 10. Strom Thurmond now has […]
