Lecture 13 is LIVE: From Sweatshops to Slave Ships: Capitalism’s First Draft Was Blood-Soaked This lecture explores the roots of American capitalism and shows you what’s underneath.

This lecture exposes capitalism’s true origin story, not as an engine of progress, but as a system born from Europe’s trauma and perfected through American brutality.

When the Government Chooses Death A Sunday Sermon on White Supremacy, Greed, and the Sin of the Shutdown

Here is my Sunday sermon. What we’re witnessing isn’t just a shutdown of government offices, it’s a shutdown of conscience.

This sermon is a call to the living, to those who refuse to die quietly in a nation addicted to death.

The White Christian Megapastor Who Got Six Months for Child Sexual Abuse the Same Day Diddy Got Four Years This Substack is reader-supported.

Two predators. Two verdicts. Same day.

Diddy gets 4 years. Trump’s former spiritual advisor, Robert Morris, gets 6 months for sexually abusing a 12-year-old for years.

Both are monsters. But only one gets mercy, prayers, and a redemption arc.

Trump’s Chicago ICE Raid: A Real Estate Blueprint To Militarize, Dispossess, Gentrify? What if the early morning raid on Chicago’s South Shore apartments wasn’t really about crime or an immigration sweep at all?

Troops stormed Chicago’s South Shore apartments. DHS says they arrested “37 gang members.” But there’s no list of names, charges, proof. This raid wasn’t about gangs or an immigration sweep. It was about turning fear into profit. Militarize. Dispossess. Gentrify.

Trump And Hegseth’s Quantico Meeting Was A Loyalty Test For A White Man’s Army I’ll say what the press won’t: what happened at Quantico wasn’t military strategy.

What happened at Quantico earlier this week wasn’t military strategy. It was a racial war game.

“Say It to My Face!” Why Democrats Keep Losing While Fascists Keep Winning This Substack is reader-supported.

“Say it to my face!” 👀

We all know what that means in Black communities. It’s a dare and a line in the sand. That’s why folks cheered when Hakeem Jeffries threw it at Trump after that racist AI video.

But what happens if Trump actually does?

On Teaching Gen Z Journalism Students How to "See" In a World That Rewards Selfies But Punishes Witnessing Teaching Gen Z How to See

What does it mean to teach Gen Z how to see?
In a world drowning in selfies and distraction, I challenged my journalism students to turn the camera outward, to frame, to compose, to witness.

Dr Stacey Patton (@drstaceypatton1865) RIP, Assata Shakur. She passed away yesterday in Havana, Cuba. She died free! The U.S. government, after decades of pursuit, never got the satisfaction of putting her in a cage. They wanted her bound...

She died FREE. She belongs to the ancestors now. She is ETERNAL.

Donald Trump says kids in Baltimore are “born criminals.” But when a white boy from Utah grows up cradling rifles, blessed in church pews, and then murders a man on stage, the silence is deafening.

Trump Is Building A New Plantation Economy Using Black, Brown Cities It’s not about stopping crime. It’s about baiting Black and Brown folks into rebellion so he can justify unleashing even more force, and quite frankly, justify killing us.

When Trump threatens D.C., Baltimore, Chicago, NYC, or LA, it’s a spectacle for his base. But zoom out and you see an infrastructure quietly being built in red states: detention centers, deputized sheriffs, expanded contracts for prison companies.
