Occasionally you stumble upon a previously published article from a year or two ago that time has only made more impactful.
This is one of them. In an effort to combat the problem of being a food desert, the citizenry in the zip code of 64109 (45 percent black and 38 percent White) have had the government in Kansas City create a tax-payer funded – supported – grocery store to serve them. KC Sun Fresh has been a disaster. Though the grocery store has received more than 10 million dollars since 2018, it lost more than $900,000 in the past year.
Many call it a disaster of centralized-planning, a reminder of the limitations of socialism or a communist ideology. In reality, it’s just another glimpse into the ruinous egalitarian mindset pervasive across the nation. Cue up the story from 2024 about KC Sun Fresh, opened for catering exclusively to the black community in zip code 64109 and quickly spending most of their revenue for hiring security guards to keep black patrons safe.
Why? Well… “it’s common for unhoused residents to sleep outside the SunFresh, and reports of fighting, drug use and public sex lead to frequent 911 calls from the plaza.” [SunFresh Linwood was supposed to revive business in east KC. The store is now in crisis, KansasCity.com, September 4, 2024]:
Teenage grocery store shelf stockers have taken to carrying tasers in their pockets in case they have to defend themselves from customers at the SunFresh Linwood at 31st Street and Prospect Avenue in East Kansas City.The SunFresh, which anchors the Linwood Shopping Plaza along Prospect, has changed hands several times in the past few years as city leaders and organizations tried to keep East Kansas City from becoming an urban food desert. Most recently, CBKC, a Black-owned development agency, took over operations of the entire plaza in 2022.But today, it’s common for unhoused residents to sleep outside the SunFresh, and reports of fighting, drug use and public...
Austerity in federal and state government spending is coming, because to get debt under control, letting go of superfluous employees is one of the best ways – outside of getting rid of unnecessary programs and expenditures – to rein in deficits.
We already know DOGE to create efficiency in Federal government expenditures would result in severely impacting the artificial black middle class, which is created by jobs in the bloated government bureaucracy. Well, did you know the role state government jobs perform in also creating the artificial black middle class? [DISINVESTMENT IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR WILL DISPROPORTIONATELY IMPACT BLACK WOMEN, Black Enterprise, July 8, 2025]:
Data from the Economic Policy Institute shows Black women make up more than one in five local government workers and more than one in four state government workers in Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, and Maryland.
New research found that the efforts by the Trump administration and Congress to cut the federal workforce, funding to states, and public services will disproportionately harm Black women who hold many of these jobs.
According to the Economic Policy Institute, jobs in the public sector are not only a key driver of economic growth but also increase the quality of life, especially in the South. Jobs in the public sector are represented at the federal, state, and local levels, impacting education for children, caring for the elderly, ensuring that vulnerable communities have access to quality water and food, and many other essential services.
Black workers have historically faced widespread discrimination in the private sector, from hiring practices, pay, sexism, and even being limited to menial jobs. With the disinvestment in the public sector, Black women will be...
Truth, Justice, and the Post-Civil Rights Act of 1965 American Way. [Black Superman Movie Was Reportedly Canceled For Being “Too Woke”, Screen Rant, July 10, 2025]:
The Black Superman movie has been canceled. David Corenswet’s take on Clark Kent just debuted in the new DC Universe. The highly-anticipated film is making waves at the box office already, surpassing projections, which could lead to Superman recouping its budget and then some. While the DCU has its own Superman, another version of the character was scrapped.
According to a new DC report from the Wall Street Journal, the Black Superman movie by writer Ta-Nehisi Coates was canceled for being “too woke” in the eyes of Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav after he assumed the studio back in 2022. The planned Superman movie reimagining would have focused on a Black Superman in the civil rights era.
J.J. Abrams was originally set to produce the Black Superman movie, among other DC ventures. While Zaslav killed the project years ago, the new DC report reveals there is still a possibility it could come back. According to the Wall Street Journal, the Black Superman movie could still happen in the future under James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DC Studios.
Before the report, a long time had passed without updates on the state of the Black Superman movie. With Abrams’ other DC projects being scrapped and a new vision for the studio coming together under Gunn and Safran, it seemed like there would not be any space left for the project. That notion has now proven to be true.
However, with the report leaving the door open for the Black Superman movie to come back under DC Studios, there is a way it could happen. While David Corenswet is the Superman of the shared DCU, the studio now has the Elseworlds label for DC projects that exist outside the canon of Gunn’s DC Universe.
Much like how Robert Pattinson’s Batman will remain separate from the DCU in Matt Reeves&...
Oh, what a history the country of Liberia boasts!
With a Constitution directly modeled after the United States of America, Liberia was the brainchild of the American Colonization Society (ACS). Freed blacks were resettled in portion of land in Africa, and in 1847 declared its independence from the ACS and was recognized in 1848 by Britain as an independent nation. After Haiti was birthed in the blood White genocide, Liberia became the second black republic in the world.
With a capital city named after US President James Monroe, freed blacks in America had the chance to return to their native continent and create a nation free of the sins of that legacy which has come to define race relations in the USA since (a convenient crutch to constantly fall back on to blame 21st century failure upon), with no redlining or White privilege to manifest invisible barriers and hinder growth.
Right?
Well, that’s not exactly as Liberia turned out. [As U.S. abruptly ends support, Liberia faces empty health clinics and unplanned pregnancies: USAID built schools and health clinics, but most of the U.S. funding went to Liberia’s health system, making up 48% of its budget, NBC News, July 8, 2025]:
SARWORLOR, Liberia — Five months ago, Roseline Phay, a 32-year-old farmer from the West African nation of Liberia, set off on a quest to find contraceptives.
Phay and her partner have two daughters, and they barely make ends meet. Determined not to have more children, she went to a health worker in her village, but contraception pills, implants and condoms had run out. Phay trekked for hours on red clay roads to the nearest clinic, but they had no contraceptives either.
She did not know it, but her mission was doomed from the beginning. Just weeks before, U.S. President Donald Trump abruptly suspended most foreign aid through the U.S. Agency for International Development, which paid for medications in Liberia’s public clinics.
Tenacious and outspoken, Phay repeated the trip four...
Years ago, I made the mistake of flying Spirit Airlines. Never made that mistake again.
In early 2024, I had the opportunity to take a cruise. When I found it was going to be a Carnival Cruise, I politely declined. Having viewed ample social media posts on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Twitter of vibrant guests enjoying their time on a boat under the banner of Carnival, it was a no-brainer to say “no thanks” and pass on this invitation to enjoy a week in the Caribbean.
No amount of complimentary drinks could insulate one from the unfortunate racial realities present on a Carnival Cruise. And apparently, these realities and quickly being branded the equivalent of Spirit Airlines on the sea were enough to convince the C-suite at Carnival to institute new rules governing behavior on their fleet of ships. [‘CARNIVAL DECIDED THEY WANTED TO REBRAND’: BLACK PASSENGERS SAY THEY FEEL TARGETED BY CRUISE LINE’S NEW RULES, Black Enterprise, July 5, 2025]:
Carnival Cruise Line is under fire after implementing a series of new onboard policies that some Black passengers say are restrictive at best and racist at worst.
“This was the tragic fallacy which brought on the decadence and collapse of the democracies of the twentieth century; those noble experiments failed because the people had been led to believe that they could simply vote for whatever they wanted … and get it, without turmoil, without sweat, without tears.” Starship Troopers
After the events of 9/11 – if you believe the story as laid out by the 9/11 Commission Report – when less than a score of Muslims brought down the World Trade Center buildings, flew a plane into the Pentagon, and fourth plane crashed into a field in Pennsylvania, the Saracen population has increased dramatically. A sane nation would have simply stopped all immigration from Muslim nations after a horrific terror attack left more than 3,000 Americans dead, but our Muslim population is now close to five million in the USA due to immigration and refugee resettlement.
Meanwhile, New York City was roughly 96% White in 1925. In 2025, New York City is 33% White.
We lost our nation to the horror of the consequences of the 1965 Immigration Act, and then any attempt to stop the flood of immigration into our nation was met with cries of “nativist” or howls of “racist.”
Surrendering your country has consequences. [Zohran Mamdani Proposes Taxing ‘Whiter Neighborhoods’ in NYC, New York Post, June 28, 2025]:
New York City’s Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has said he wants to “shift the tax burden” to “richer and whiter neighborhoods” if he secures election in November.
A housing policy document on Mamdani’s official website includes a pledge to “shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.”
Newsweek contacted the Mamdani campaign for comment via email on Friday outside of regular office hours.

Mamdani’s proposal has already sparked a...
The Tulsa Race Riot of 1921 is one of the biggest Blood Libels against White Americans. HBO’s Watchmen TV series retconned Alan Moore’s titular 1980s comic as having its foundation in the black heroes who arose from this purported White massacre, of which all White people across America are uniquely responsible for participating in (whether or not they’ve ever set foot in Tulsa, this incident is just another sin for which there is no atonement). You can read THE MASSACRE OF BLACK WALL STREET comic, a prequel to the HBO Watchmen series, here. It was released the year before the George Floyd Riots.
Well, it turns out a black celebration in the hallowed grounds of Greenwood, where in 1921 White people flew planes over the black citizens there and dropped bombs on them (spoiler: this didn’t happen, though Watchmen depicts this fiction transpiring as fact, only fueling further anti-White animosity in contemporary blacks), ended with yet another Juneteenth black on black massacre.
Yes, this really happened in 2025.

Greenwood business owners, residents and family members of a man who was shot to death at the annual Juneteenth celebration Saturday night vowed Tuesday to band together to prevent further violence.
“I feel like, in a way, people have lost a reverence for Greenwood,” Tony Williams, a member of the Greater Tulsa Area African American Affairs Commission, said during a combination press conference and community meeting in the business of the victim’s aunt on North Greenwood Avenue’s historic 100 block. “Greenwood is not just a place for us to come together and party.

All across the nation this upcoming Fourth of July, families will attend picnics, parades, and pool parties to celebrate the United States of America.

No one will know that the celebration of Juneteenth in 2025, a Federal holiday celebrating a minor day of significance for freed blacks in Texas, was yet another moment confirming stereotypes. [1 dead, 9 wounded in mass shooting at Juneteenth party outside VFW hall, NY Post, June 22, 2025]:
One person was killed and nine others were injured when gunfire tore through a massive crowd at a Juneteenth celebration near a VFW hall in South Carolina Saturday night, according to officials.
The carnage started around 10 p.m. when a fight broke out at a Veterans of Foreign Wars post outside of Greenville, Fox Carolina reported.
Gunfire erupted and caused hundreds of panicked partygoers to flee, “leaving behind shoes and debris in the roadway,” the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
The sole fatality, 35-year-old Laporshia Janae Gray Cobb, died at the scene from a gunshot wound to the abdomen, according to WSPA.
Another victim was flown to Greenville Memorial Hospital, and at least 8 others were taken to local hospitals in Anderson and Greenville, cops said.
More than 100 cops. EMS, and firefighters responded to the scene.
The shooting took place just feet away from the VFW on Scarborough Road, where a sixth annual Juneteenth celebration was taking place — celebrating the end of slavering in the US.
“The shooting occurred outside within feet of a Veterans of Foreign Wars, however, the post does NOT have any affiliation with the event itself,” the sheriff’s office stressed in the release.
There is currently no additional available information on the victims or the motive of the shooter.
Rest in peace, Laporshia. Fitting this happened feet from a Veterans of Foreign...
