“Children’s Book Author “Delores Connors” on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


Delores_ConnorsFor a child to go from a mainstream classroom to a special education class can be quite devastating. It is an emotional journey that can have a strong impact on the student’s learning.

Delores Connors, (pictured above), author of the children’s book “I Don’t Want to Go” takes a look at the dilemma that most children face when transitioning into special education. This realization represents a good start toward promoting understanding and respect for children faced with this prospect.

Join me tonight at 6:30 p.m. on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio, as I kick off Black History month by welcoming Ms. Connors as my special guest to discuss her new title and her role in helping parents, teachers and school administrators cope with this process.

“Racism In America Today ~ As It Relates To Dr. M. L. King’s Vision on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


MLKConversations Of A Sistah is back! And our topic of discussion is Racism in America!

Racism has fostered inequality and discrimination for centuries, as well as influencing how we relate to other human beings as a whole. Racial hatred and bigotry is also on the rise in this country at an all-time high. It’s like history is repeating itself with the massive killings of unarmed African-America men, women and children.

Since the rise in these killings around the country, the unrest has unveiled the “Black Lives Matter” organization. An International Activist Movement, originating in the African American Community that campaigns against violence geared toward people of color. This organization has in many ways adopted some of the same strategies as the Civil Rights Movement. The purpose of the movement was to make sure that all citizens, all races, all religious groups and all nationalities are treated equally under the law.

Join me tonight at 6:30 p.m. on “Conversations Of A Sistah” on Blog Talk Radio as we commemorate the birthday of the late Dr. Martin Luther King on the discussion of “Racism In America Today ~ As It Relates To Dr. Martin Luther King’s Vision.

So….Not ‘One’ was Indicted For Sandra Bland’s Jailhouse Death?


chi-ct-sandra-bland-ct0030015155-20150720

Sandra Bland was pulled over on July 10 by a Texas state trooper for making an improper lane change. Dashcam video showed their interaction which quickly became confrontational and she was arrested for assault. Y’all know the story!

Bland was taken in handcuffs to the county jail in nearby Hempstead, about 50 miles northwest of Houston, and remained there when she couldn’t raise $500 for bail.

She was discovered dead in her jail cell three days later, hanging from a cell partition with a plastic garbage bag used as a ligature around her neck.

Like the family’s attorney Cannon Lambert said on Monday, “the grand jury’s decision is consistent with what the family believes has so far been an attempt by authorities to cover up the events which took place after Bland’s arrest”.

The consistency of their decision is also unwavering with the open murders of black men and women at the hands of authorities during slavery and the civil rights era, only then they hung us from trees.

In today’s systematic society of justification for killing men and women of color, they’re hanging us from jail cells and killing us in the street behind a badge, their authority and the guise of self-defense and fear. 

Until there is Justice, there will never be any peace!
