Analysis of Politics and Other Issues.

 

  

 

The issue with Ice Cube deals with many things about politics, race, gender, and other issues. This is my official words on this issue. After careful study from many sides, here are my views. I believe that Ice Cube is sincere in finding liberation for black people. Some people want to call him a sellout of an Uncle Tom, which is uncalled for. Ice Cube is no where equivalent to a Tommy Sotomayor or a Jesse Lee Peterson (Tommy and Jesse are real sellouts). Ice Cube is in error to assume that having a dialogue with Trump will somehow make us gain concessions. For almost 4 years, Trump had a long opportunity to do something revolutionary for the black community. Yet, Trump has failed us black human beings just like he failed other communities with his reactionary policies (from him trying to suppress the freedom of the press to his splitting up babies from the arms of migrant mothers). Trump is a person who thinks that black people are irrational and easily manipulative as proven by his words and his deeds. Here are some examples. Trump's Platinum Plan is heavily vague and doesn't address income inequality, police terrorism, climate change, racial health disparities, or issues of importance to black men or black women in a comprehensive way. Ice Cube said that he gave his proposal to the Republicans and Democrats. He said that the Democrats said wait until after the election is over, while the Trump team only revised certain sections of the Platinum Plan. Cube promotes his Contract with Black America program that has some good parts in it, but it doesn't address the needs of black women or other issues from imperialism to health care. Ice Cube is wrong to assume that, especially late in the election, that we should withdrawal our vote in the Presidential election until his goals are met. Right now, millions of Americans are homeless, struggle to find work, have health care issues, and are victims of discrimination. Either one man will be President. It will be either an authoritarian or a moderate. This is what we have. Our voting rights, our social safety net, our liberties, and our lives are in the balance now. The incompetence of Trump should make us aware that he should be voted out office period.  I knew that the misogynist Tariq Nasheed would come and support taking interest in Trump's policy that mentions black people, because he is the same person who lied and said that voting is useless (with his Hotep Hidden Colors documentaries). Tariq Nasheed disrespected Kirsten West Savali (who is a heroic progressive black woman), even falsely called her late husband white when her husband  wasn't white, uses slurs against black people, and is notorious for his deception. The cover of Hidden Colors 4 has the U.S. flag burning up, but now Tariq Nasheed is glamorizing flag waving of the U.S. flag in his FBA xenophobic movement. 

 

It is obvious that Trump doesn't care about Black Americans. Trump's tax laws benefit large multinational corporations not African Americans collectively. African American households only get 5% of the benefits form Trump's tax law despite making up about 13% of U.S. households. Trump rolled back Obama-era policies to protect black students from discrimination in school punishments. DeVos delayed regulations that helped identify racial disparities in special needs programs in public schools. Trump ended guidelines for public schools to consider race in diversifying schools. Trump has said that he doesn't agree with BLM or even the concept of Black Lives Matter. Trump wants the death penalty of the Central Park Five to this day, even after they are proven to be innocent. Trump cursed out peaceful NFL protesters and continues to disrespect black people in vulgar, racist terms. Trump rolled back and weakened policies on policing. Trump has encouraged police brutality and endorsed the War on Drugs. Trump has praised violent, far right militia groups in Michigan and Wisconsin who have stormed capitol legislative buildings in 2020 alone. Trump cut support for prisoner halfway houses for those transitioning back into society. Trump advocates herd immunity instead of true universal health care. The Biden/Harris Lift Every Voice plan has 112 mentions of Black Americans while the Platinum Plan has only 28 mentions. The Lift Every Voice Plan has 22 pages of information while the Platinum Plus plan has only 2 pages. Ice Cube's Contract with Black America omits issues like women's health and education. You can't have a Contract with Black America without addressing the issues of black women, who are the backbones of the black community literally. The deaths of Sandra Bland and Breonna Taylor should make us aware of the importance to protect black women. Kamala Harris fought for more investments in HBCUs.  Trump talks about the First Step Act, but he agrees with harsher sentences for drug offenses, including non-violent ones. Trump wants the death penalty for people who had large quantities of drugs. Trump has defended Confederates and Confederate statues. He said there are good people on both sides in the Charlottesville disaster. Trump said that low income people want to invade the suburbs. Trump doesn't want the ACA or even an expansion of a public option in health care. So, after reading this information, you know that Trump could care less about black people. Trump is a racist. The Biden/Harris website have complex, explicit plans on helping African Americans. Trump's Platinum Plan is a reactionary attempt to promote the status quo. 

 

There is another issue too. Ice Cube attempting to dialogue with a bigot like Trump represents how a small percentage of black men and black people in general support Trump. Even though Ice Cube doesn't ally with Trump explicitly, he gives aid and comfort to Hoteps and those who agree with Trump. People ask why do many (not all) black people support Donald Trump? The answer is obvious. More black men support Trump than black women. Black men also are the least among of men of any race that support Trump. Many black people support Trump for many reasons. Some black people agree with him because: some black people wants a strict patriarchal society that Trump has endorsed, some are religious and feel that their conservative religious views relate to Trump (even though Trump mocks Evangelicals behind their backs, doesn't ask God for forgiveness, uses the Bible as a prop at a church after he sent police to harm innocent, peaceful protesters, and is an immoral person), some are bigots (who hate women, immigrants, or other minorities), and some believe in black capitalism. Black capitalism is the view that forming black businesses primarily in a capitalistic fashion will cause black liberation. This was promoted by Nixon and other Republicans for decades. Obviously, black capitalism alone doesn't work because of many reasons. Black capitalism ignores that poverty, homelessness, health care disparities, police brutality, sexism, and other oppression won't be solved by business growth alone. You have to have a radical redistribution of political and economic power in order to fight back against those evils. Living wages, universal health care, anti-discrimination policies, an end to imperialism, and strict policies to end police brutality are beyond black capitalism's confines. Black Power being progressively utilized instead of Black Capitalism is what our legacy relates too. Ice Cube, Kanye West, and Jim Crown (who either support Trump or want to have a dialogue with him) embrace various forms of black capitalism as they are very wealthy people (who will benefit from Trump's obscene tax cuts mostly for the super wealthy). Grassroots poor and working class black people need something more thorough. That is why when Ice Cube was interviewed by Roland Martin, Ice Cube struggled to find answers, because Cube knows that Trump is full of it. You can't work with a racist Trump campaign and expect some resolution. This doesn't mean that Democrats are immune from critique. Far too often, the leaderships of the Democrats have been controlled by a neo-liberal faction that want the status quo instead of progressive change. Since the days of Carter, many Democratic leaders from the DLC to others have moved Democrats to the right on many issues from welfare reform to supporting the unjust Iraq War. That was wrong. That is why people falsely blame progressives collectively for Democratic errors, but in reality, conservative/moderate Democrats (not true progressives) are responsible for welfare reform, the rise of the prison industrial complex, lax responses to police terrorism, economic inequality, gentrification, and other evils. These policies are conservative policies not progressive policies. Many people are complaining about Ice Cube, but Cube has always been Cube. For years, I criticized Ice Cube for his glamorization of the n word, his disrespect of women in his music, and his other wicked lyrics on songs done by NWA. People should not be surprised at Cube, who embraces a form of conservative black capitalism. Cube has been Cube for decades. Trump doesn't even want diversity training in the workplace. Some black males want to promote the same views as white far right people in a black veneer. These are the Hoteps. Stories are coming about his advisor's Qatar and Steve Bannon connections too. There are those who exploit this issue to bash black women or bash black men. That is wrong. We should bash and expose oppression not BM or BW. You can't fight for black liberation without addressing poverty, economic oppression, and racial injustice directly. You have to confront corporate power not coddle it. How can a person have a dialogue with a President that promotes policies of overt voter suppression. From Ice Cube's lyrics saying I never had dinner with the President to trying to talk to the most racist President in a long time (while almost half of all black small businesses are closed due to the virus crisis and the recession) shows how wrong Ice Cube is. Not to mention that doctors, lawyers, activists, and educators including other people have been working on plans and goals for black liberation for decades. At the end of the day, over 24 million people have voted already, and it's necessary to vote Trump out of office. 

 

By September 1939, France declared war on Nazi Germany. This came after the Nazis invaded Poland. Josephine Baker was recruited by the Deuxieme Bureau or the French military intelligence, as a honorable correspondent. Baker collected what information that she could about German troop locations from officials she met at parties. She was in gatherings at embassies and ministries. She used her charm to gather information. Baker had many fame. She found information from high ranking Japanese officials and Italian bureaucrats. She reported back to what she heard. She attended parties and gathered facts at the Italian embassy without raising suspicion. Baker left Paris when the Nazis invaded France. She came to the Chateau des Milandes. That was her home in the Dorogne department in the south of France. She housed people who were eager to join the Free French effort. This effort was led by Charles de Gaulle. Baker supplies people with visas. As an entertainer, Baker moved around Europe, even in neutral nations like Portugal. She came into South America. She carried information for transmission to England about airfields, harbors, and German troop concentration in the West of France. Notes were written in invisible ink on Baker's sheet music. As written in Jazz Age Cleopatra, "She specialized in gatherings at embassies and ministries, charming people as she had always done, but at the same time trying to remember interesting items to transmit." By 1941, she and her entourage went to the French colonies in North Africa. She wanted to continue in the resistance. She was recovering from another case of pneumonia too. She made tours to Spain from a base in Morocco. She wrote notes of information gathered inside her body. She met the Pasha of Marrakech, whose support helped her through a miscarriage. After her miscarriage, she developed a bad infection. It caused her to require a hysterectomy. The infection spread and she had peritonitis and then sepsis. After, she recovered, she toured troops among British, French, and American soldiers in North Africa. The Free French had no organized entertainment network for their troops, so Baker and her entourage managed for the most part on their own. They allowed no civilians and charged no admission. After the war, Baker received the Croix de guerre and the Rosette de la Résistance. She was made a Chevalier of the Légion d'honneur by General Charles de Gaulle. Baker's last marriage, to French composer and conductor Jo Bouillon, ended around the time Baker opted to adopt her 11th child. 

  

There is the recent news of the far right militias plotting to assassinate Virginia's Governor Northam not just trying to do the same to the Michigan Governor Whitmer. The truth is clear that we have terrorists and thugs who are far right militias who want a reactionary country in America. Now, we know that there are links to the movements of the far right. Recently, Virginia fascist Boogaloo member Mike Dunn led an armed demonstration at the police station in Newport News, Virginia to protest a law banning open carry of assault rifles on government property. The police Chief Steve Drew shook hands with Dunn. Now, we know that many cops are white racists and fascists. Dunn called Northam a tyrannical governor. Trump has praised these extremists when they stormed the Michigan Capitol with semiautomatic weapons. People have the right to vote without intimidation from anyone. So, we must defeat fascism in all of it manifestations.

 

 

Carbohydrates are some of the most important substances of food and health. What is a carbohydrate? A carbohydrate is a biomolecule made up of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) atoms. They usually have a hydrogen and oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water), and thus the  thus with the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n (where m may be different from n). However, not all carbohydrates conform to this precise stoichiometric definition (e.g., uronic acids, deoxy-sugars such as fucose), nor are all chemicals that do conform to this definition automatically classified as carbohydrates (e.g. formaldehyde). Carbohydrates can include sugars, starches, and cellulose. These are saccharides. The saccharides are made up of 4 chemical groups called: monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides and disaccharides, the smallest (lower molecular weight) carbohydrates, are commonly referred to as sugars. The word saccharide comes from the Greek word σάκχαρον (sákkharon), meaning "sugar." While the scientific nomenclature of carbohydrates is complex, the names of the monosaccharides and disaccharides very often end in the suffix -ose, as in the monosaccharides fructose (fruit sugar) and glucose (starch sugar) and the disaccharides sucrose (cane or beet sugar) and lactose (milk sugar).


Carbohydrates perform numerous roles in living organisms. Polysaccharides serve for the storage of energy (e.g. starch and glycogen) and as structural components (e.g. cellulose in plants and chitin in arthropods). The 5-carbon monosaccharide ribose is an important component of coenzymes (e.g. ATP, FAD and NAD) and the backbone of the genetic molecule known as RNA. The related deoxyribose is a component of DNA. Saccharides and their derivatives include many other important biomolecules that play key roles in the immune system, fertilization, preventing pathogenesis, blood clotting, and development. In health and nutrition, carbohydrates are found at many natural and processed foods. Starch is a polysaccharide. It is found in cereals (wheat, maize, rice), potatoes, and processed food based on cereal flour (like bread, pizza, or pasta). Sugars are in sugar, lactose, glucose, and fructose. Many fruits and some vegetables have glucose and fructose. A high level of carbohydrates hare found in processed foods or refined foods made from plants, like sweets, candy, table sugar, honey, breads, and crackers. There are simple and complex carbohydrates. Some processed carbohydrates usually have less nutrients than more complex carbohydrates (with foods with fiber, vitamins, and minerals). Simple ones include sugars like monosccharides and disaccharides and complex if they are polyscaccharides or oliogsacchhradies. Yet, simple and complex carbohydrates very in nutritional value. Doctors and nutritionists always recommend people to eat carbohydrate rich foods like legumes, whole grains, fruits, pulses, and vegetables. These help humanity. An extreme low carbohydrate dieting or the ketogenic diet can have side effects like low energy levels, increased hunger, insomnia, nausea, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Carbohydrates are valuable to give people energy for a workout and they support recovery and muscle growth. That is why people eat carbs in the form of protein snacks after a workout. This replenish glycogen stores. People should always get the right nutrients (in about 200 calories of carbs) before a workout. Getting carbs in the moderate way is good. Carbs aren't evil. They can help the body to use energy. Complex carbs like apples, brown rice, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, whole grain toast, yogurt can help fuel the bodies and get nutrients flowing in the human body. 

 

 

To evaluate 2020, you have to understand the 2020 Presidential election. This is the most important election of American history without question. It started long before 2020 too. The country saw Trump's bigotry, racism, and sexism in full display. Now, his policies has ruined America. How did this election start? It started before the 2018 midterm elections that saw the House finally become mostly Democratic. This is the 59th quadrennial United States Presidential election. By the year of 2017, tons of Democratic candidates ran for President. They included the most diverse field in Democratic history. It was filled with people of many colors, liberals, moderates, and other human beings. People like Kamala Harris, and Andrew Yang ran for President in 2017. Many Libertarian candidates ran in 2018 from Arvin Vohra to Adam Kokesh. Later, the Green Party would have its candidates. Richard Ojeda made his short lived campaign in 2018. By December 31, 2018, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts made her exploratory committee to run for President. 2019 was when a large part of the Presidential race existed. In 2019, Kamala Harris launched her campaign on January 21, 2019 at Oakland, California, which is a city with a long history of social activism. Also, in 2019, Tusli Gabbard, Julian Castro, Kirsten Gillibrand, Pete Buttigeig, Marianne Williamson, Cory Booker, Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren, Beto O'Rourke, and Bernie Sanders made for President. Jay Inslee, John Hickenlooper, Michael Bloomberg, and other people ran for President too. Debates were abundant. The major themes of the Democratic debates were about ideological splits, climate change, the economy, racial issues, women's rights issues, other social issues, and other important issues. By the end of 2019, Trump was finally impeached. Many Presidential candidates dropped out of the Presidential race like Bullock, Kamala Harris, and other people. By early 2020, Democratic primaries existed. More people dropped out in early 2020 like Cory Booker and Julian Castro. Also, the first case of the coronavirus on American soil was in Washington state on the date of January 21, 2020. At first, the primary victors would be a four person race of Sanders, Biden, Buttegieg, and Warren. The turning point was in the South Carolina Democratic primary being won by Joe Biden on February 29, 2020. Black Americans mostly gave him the victory not because we viewed Biden as some super progressive (which he wasn't). Many of us felt that Biden had the best chance to defeat Trump. After that event, Sanders and Biden competed for the victory. Yet, Biden gained too much power and won the Democratic nomination. Like in 2016, many in the media red baited and used other disrespectful language against Bernie Sanders and his supporters. Yet, Bernie Sanders was gracious in his Democratic primary debate, and he sent his support Joe Biden after the primaries were finished. Donald Trump won his Republican nomination. By late March of 2020, the virus spread all over America causing harm to many lives. Bernie Sanders ended his campaign on April 8, 2020/. The Democratic Convention was totally virtual. The Republican Convention was virtual and in person at times. By May of 2020, the protests against police brutality in dealing with the unjust murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis were worldwide. Confederate statues come down, and the world was watching. Trump talks about Antifa while sugarcoating far right extremist groups. Biden continued his Presidential campaign throughout the Summer of 2020. Kanye West ran for President with Michelle Tidball as his running mate on July 4, 2020. History is made when Biden announced her running mate as California Senator Kamala Harris on August 11, 2020. Kamala Harris is the first black woman and Asian woman to be a Vice Presidential candidate of a major U.S. party in American history. The first debate of Trump and Biden was emotional with Trump interrupting Biden constantly. Kamala Harris and Mike Pence's only debate revolved around Harris' strong words on criminal justice issues and Pence's articulate defense of Trump's corrupt, evil policies. Early voting existed, and voter suppression efforts are real. Yet, record early voting has developed nationwide. Trump and many of his team were infected with the virus including Harris' aide. The major issues of the 2020 Presidential election are about the impact of the coronavrius pandemic that killed over 220,000 Americans, climate change, the future of the ACA, voting rights, women's rights, immigration, education, the Trump promotion of Amy Coney Barrett, the protests over the killing of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and other black Americans, and other issues. 


  

Many people don't know that Carmen Jones was the first film with an all-black cast shown in Technicolor. Dorothy Dandridge was one of the earliest black iconic superstars. “She was our queen,” once said African American actress Nichelle Nichols (of Star Trek fame). Dandridge lived in an age of transition just after the silent movie era, but before modern black American stars saw much more opportunities in displaying their talents. Also, there are many facts that many people don't know about her life. As part of the Dandridge Sisters, she and others preformed in Europe, at the Cotton Club, and with Louis Armstrong in 1949 (in the short lived Swingin' the Dream). The Dandridge Sisters sang with the African American band leader Jimmie Lunceford. They were in shorts like Snow Gets in Your Eyes (1938), and performed Harlem Yodel and Rhythm Rascals. Harold and Fayard Nicholas performed with her or Dorothy Dandridge too. “No film fan has ever forgotten her as a dream girl with the brothers,” said African American film historian Donald Bogle in his book Hollywood Black: The Stars, the Films, the Filmmakers. Dororthy Dandridge's only child was Harolyn who was born in 1943. Harol;yn's father was Harold Nicholas. Dandridge also studied dramatic acting at the progressive Actors' Lab in Los Angeles. She was one of the school's first black students. Marilyn Monroe was one of the students there. Dororthy Dandridge and Marilyn Monroe were great friends. The red baiting of the 1950's caused the theater to be closed. Coach and composer plus arranger Phil Moore helped Dandridge to develop a nightclub act.  Dandridge once said of racial prejudice: “It is such a waste. It makes you loggy and half-alive. If it gives you nothing.” One of the last pictures of Dorothy Dandridge was when she was with her manager Earl Mills and the writer/historian Clarence A. De Lima. They were at the producer Raul Fernandez's estate. Now, it's 55 years after her passing. She is right to say the following words: “What makes you really happy is when you love and give and understand, when you look at beauty and really see it. We are so busy watching the road under our feet we forget to look up at the beauty all around us.”  

 

 

From 1997-2006, there was a massive increase of R&B and hip hop collaborations. 1997 saw a liberation of Mariah Carey. Mariah left Tommy Motola to express her own ideals, and it is clear that she has a love of hip hop music. People seem to forget that Mariah is a New York woman. She's from Long Island. She worked in songs with Bad Boys rappers from Diddy to the Lox in the song of Honey. The record of I'll Be Missing You had P. Diddy and Fiath Evans including 112 mourning the passing of the Notorious B.I.G. In 1998, Wyclef Jean had a song with Destiny's Child in a remix that caused Destiny's Child to reach huge heights of power. The song was No, No, No. Part 2. In 1998, Mya worked with Sisqo of Dru Hill (Called It's all about me), and Mase worked with Total to make the song What You Want. In 1999, Mariah Carey had a song with Jay Z called Heartbreaker. The classic song of The Roots featuring Erykah Badu plus Eve of You Got Me came out in 1999. TLC, P. Diddy, and others made music in this time too. Will Smith worked on his Wild West Song with Sisqo of Dru Hill. In the year of 2000, there was Aaliyah working with Timbaland in the song Resolution. In the year  of 2000, there was the song of Missy and Mel B called I Want You Back. By 2001, Ja Rule worked with Ashanti and other singers. Eve worked with Gwen Stefani too in 2001.   In 2002, Nelly worked with Kelly Rowland on the song Dilemma. Also, Loon, Usher, and Diddy made their record I Need Girl Part One. In 2002, there was the song of Break You Off of the Roots ft. Musiq Soulchild. From Sleepy Brown working with Outkast in 2003 to Why in 2004 with Anthony Hamilton plus Jadakiss, music was alive in that time period. Where is the Love with Black Eyed Peas and Fergie from 2003 had a message too. In 2004, Ciara worked with Missy Elliot to make 1 2 Step, and Kanye West worked with Sylenna Johnson to make All Falls Down. Nelly worked with Jaheim of the My Place song. Slow Jamez was a hit with Kanye West and Jamie Foxx. The song Yeah was popular with Usher, Lil Jon, and Ludacris. In 2005, Amerie worked with Eve in the remix of One Thing. 50 Cent worked with Olivia too on a song. In 2005, Mariah Carey worked on many songs with Jermaine Dupri. Ciara, Destiny's Child,and other artists worked with hip hop artists in 2005 too. In 2006, Ciara, Donell Jones, and other artists worked with hip hop musicians too. 

 


 

Recently, I found more information about the Peeples family that I'm related to. My 2nd great uncle was Mack Franklin Peeples (1892-1939). He was the son of Charles and Fannie Peeples.
