A Trump Comspiracy Nation

Trump Nation - The Bullssh*t continues.  Love how it’s relegated to serving Black when it’s convenient, then run for the hills, when it isn’t.  Oh why can’t we have more Eminem type artist, who rage against the machine.  Timberlake time and time shows his true colors.  Janet Jackson this IS the ‘State Of The World’ ....

The NFL is taking another chance on Justin Timberlake, 14 years after Nipplegate.

The “Suit & Tie” singer will headline the halftime show for Super Bowl LII, the league announced Sunday night.  The 36-year-old singer last played at halftime in 2004 during a controversial performance with Janet Jackson, during which he ripped off part of her outfit and exposed her right breast.  Timberlake apologized for the incident, which he called a “wardrobe malfunction,” and the FCC established a five-second delay for live shows.

Last year, 117.5 million people tuned in to Lady Gaga’s halftime performance, making it the most-watched ever. The Super Bowl will take place on Feb. 4 at the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn.

Class Act


Diana Sands the first black actress to be cast in a major Broadway play without regard to color, was born in New York City in 1934 to Rudolph Thomas, a carpenter, and Shirley Sands, a milliner. Sands made her first stage debut in George Bernard Shaw's Major Barbara at New York City's High School of Performing Arts in Manhattan. After graduating from high school, Sands performed as a dancer while seeking work on Broadway. 

In 1959, she debuted on Broadway as the character Beneatha Younger, a dignified, aspiring doctor in A Raisin in the Sun. Her stage performance earned her the 1959 Outer Circle Critics' Award and her first film appearance as the same character in the 1961 film version opposite Claudia McNeil, Ruby Dee, Ivan Dixon, and Sidney Poitier.

After Raisin in the Sun, Sands was then offered subsequent film roles, but her refusal to be typecast subjected her to less prestigious parts. Determined to bypass the industry's segregated climate, Sands sought to elevate her profession as an actress by performing abroad where she appeared in plays such as Caesar and CleopatraAnthony and Cleopatra, and Phaedra. She continued to perform in the United States as well and in 1964 she received a Tony nomination for her role in James Baldwin's Blues for Mr. Charlie. Sands's last significant Broadway performance was in the 1969 production of The Owl and the Pussycat opposite Alan Alda. She went on to appear in 13 episodes of the short-lived television series Julia (opposite Diahann Carroll) as Julia's cousin. 

Determined to continue her career in film Sands, along with Ossie Davis, Brock Peters, and other notable performers and investors, founded in the early 1970s the Third World Cinema, a company developed to train black performers for every aspect of film production. Third World Cinema produced her cinematic star vehicle Georgia, Georgia, written by Maya Angelou. Sands portrayed Georgia, a confused black woman who becomes disconnected from herself, her people, and the world in her pursuit to find fulfillment as a performing artist. After its release, Georgia, Georgia was considered one of the most controversial films in the black community since Melvin Van Peebles Sweetback's Baadasssss Song.

Her last film Honey Baby, Honey Baby, also produced by Third World Cinema, was released after her untimely death.  Third World Cinema also co-produced the major motion picture Claudine, in which Sands had originally signed to play the title role before pancreatic cancer claimed her life in 1973 at the age of 39. Sands died at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Hospital in New York.

Bobby 'Boozing Deadbeat Dad' Brown and Demonspawn Patricia Garland, you Both lose!!! 


A New York federal judge rejected Bobby Brown’s efforts to stop a film about his late daughter Bobbi Kristina set to air on TV One Sunday at 7 p.m.

J​udge Analisa Torres said Brown’s concerns that the “Bobbi Kristina” film defames him is “speculative” because he has neither seen the film nor read the script.

Bobbi Kristina’s estate also joined the case.

“We are pleased with the court’s ruling and look forward to sharing this poignant look at the life of Bobbi Kristina Brown,” TV One said in a statement.

Brown said he believes the movie casts him in a bad light, showing him to be an abusive father. But the judge noted that in Brown’s 2016 autobiography, he admitted hitting the late Whitney Houston once in the face.

In an interview today, former head of TV One Brad Siegel – who left in July but helped shepherd the film – said he believes the TV movie treats Brown fairly.

The $2 million defamation case against TV One will still move forward with a conference meeting set for November 13.

Never Bow

 

Cam Newton made a Out of packet remark to a female reporter.  It was sexist slightly but very innocent.  Just another 'double standard' where the African American has to bow down and make nice ... I smell BULLSHIT!!! When are we as a race going to stop cowering down to make others feel better, bottom line, the approval is never going to be given.  Become a realist about it.  So Newton lost a Dannon endorsement.  He apologized against my better judgment it was a complete waste of time.  Since then the same reporter that posed the question, issued an apology too, for a completely different reason.  The madness continues below read on and draw your own conclusions.



So Cam get back to playing basketball, hopefully your pockets are laced enough for you to pay the fines to kneel during the Anthem during your Basketball season.

Happy 25th


Lovebirds ... Barack and Michelle

My Thoughts


Newspapers and Media outlets love to put a spin on cases when it's Caucasians.  PR, Mexico,Harvey. Irma, Colin Kaepernick, Taking a Knee during the anthem are ALL real issues that need to be understood and addressed. 45 wants to pray now? Stop trying to glorify this sicko, let's be clear what he loved ... KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE thats what he should be known and remembered for PERIOD!!! #Endwhitepriviledgedtoday


Crazy World


The 45 and his priorities ... go figure
