    Despite reprimanding the NAACP for not inviting Trump to a convention and consistently criticizing Black women, Stephen A. Smith only found some chill after a white man called him out. He did all that tap dancing for nothing. My latest: ✍🏾👨🏾‍💻 (Link ⛓️‍💥 below ⬇️)

    Brian Flores’ lawsuit should be won just off of what Nathaniel Hackett just did.

    This is the single dumbest and worst decision in NABJ history. Whoever made this call is an idiot. And I’ll say it to their face this week.

    I know there’s a LOT going on today, especially on this app. But, I wrote about #BrettFavre. And why the mainstream media needs to treat him like they did Michael Vick & Colin Kaepernick. Their faces were on TV 24/7 and so should his. @Deadspin deadspin.com/the-media-need…

    I wrote about what led to Wednesday’s events. It started with #Obama - the Birther Movement - and continued with #Kaepernick - kneeling. Racists hate it when the Black people they’ve always felt inferior to gain power and change the world. @Deadspin deadspin.com/how-the-electi…

    Like “thug” and “woke” — “classless” is the new way to call Black people the N-word. I wrote about #AngelReese & #CaitlinClark and how #Iowa/#LSU turned into a display of white America’s disdain for cocky Black women. My latest: @Deadspin deadspin.com/lsu-iowa-angel…

    I, a proud HBCU alum who has covered HBCUs for years, wrote about a fraud who used JSU & HBCU culture for 3 years for his own self promotion, after promising the moon & stars and only delivering temporary/unsustainable success. He went from 12-0 at a HBCU to a PWI that’s 1-11.

    Beyoncé drops a video. Future drops an album. Cam Newton. Gas is cheap. Chris Rock hosting the Oscars. Best Black History Month ever.

    I was at this HBCU party at Essence Fest a few weeks ago that Shannon hosted. He was so uncomfortable in a room full of actual Black folks. This video isn’t surprising.

    Who is Gucci's nutritionalist? What's his workout plan? How many days is he in the gym a week? Is he vegan?
