An independent platform for the people.
Some Americans Love Mediocre White Centrists Two days ago, former Vice President Joe Biden announced his candidacy for President of the United States. It will mark his fourth attempt running for the office after previous failed tries in 1984, 1988, and 2008. There has been much speculation for months that he would run, and Progressives aren’t here […]
The Joe Rogan Experience is arguably one of the biggest podcast in the world. Each week, millions of people ‘experience’ the show across multiple platforms and episodes, making JRE more viewed and probably more influential than any of the nightly news programs presented by mainstream media. Since its early days, the defining characteristic of the […]
“You start to see kind of hands twitching and legs shaking …” These, the words of Kliff Kingsbury — current National Football League, and former college football, head coach — describing what happens when the players he is in charge of are asked to sit through a meeting for more than 20 minutes. Thus, he […]
Divide and Conquer The Republican Party is currently engaging in political warfare against the Democratic Party. The goal of political warfare is to achieve political dominance over another group. It’s meant to degrade the political influence of a group you see as your opposition. It is often non-violent but can lead to violence because of the […]

The 116th Congress is still young, and already both the Democratic and Republican parties are engaging in what Black and Intellectual is calling political warfare. Political warfare against the […]
I’ve had it with unreasonable Remainers! Opinion article after opinion article, politician after politician, criticize Jeremy Corbyn for his management of the Brexit dilemma, and demand that at a minimum, he must support a second referendum at all costs. Any wavering would be a “betrayal” to the country, especially to his young supporters who predominantly […]
It’s that time of year again — Wrestlemania season! The Super Bowl of professional wrestling! I would say, ‘I know you’re excited,’ but then I’d have to put an eye-roll emoji, and that simply wouldn’t do. Still, like Christians think about the resurrection of Jesus Christ at Easter, and Santa Claus at Christmas, Wrestlemania season […]
Way back in episode one of This Week in the Narrative, written three days after the 2016 election, some 124 weeks ago, I suggested that the crucial battle would be “directing the energy and anger now seen in so many streets across America away from the black hole of false narrative and towards the tangible.” […]
“The revolution will not be televised”; it’s a statement that echoes in my head. What does it mean?
