Controversy, What he said, Wrong advice

Teacher Who Told Student Her Purpose Was to Have Sex and Babies Resigns

shaniaya-hunter-550x279Cory Hunter (pictured left above), is the teacher who told a 16-year-old female student that, “her only purpose in life” was to “have sex and have babies” resigned after the story hit the fan.

Hunter resigned from his position as a teacher in the Greene County, GA. Public School System during a heated school board meeting on Monday.

School Superintendent Chris Houston said Hunter apologized for any “disruption” caused by his behavior.

Hunter reportedly said, “I’m sorry. I quit.”

Shaniaya Hunter (no relation to her teacher), a junior at Greene County High School, has an eye condition which caused her to miss a number of days from class.

After a few unexcused absences, Shaniaya asked Hunter (who is not related to her), if she could take a makeup test. But Hunter allegedly said, “I have been around for 37 years and clearly, you are the dumbest girl that I have ever met.”

He added: “You know what your purpose is going to be? To have sex and have children, because you ain’t gonna never be smart.”

Shaniaya told ABC News affiliate WSB-TV that Hunter was known for insulting other students in his class. So she recorded his outburst on her iPad.

“It really hurt me inside,” Hunter said.

Her teacher should have resigned, he saved the school board the trouble of dismissing him for such cruel, degrading and incentive remarks.

Many women in history have contributed their success and many achievements to the power of prayer. Although African slaves worked the cotton fields picking cotton, many times they could be heard singing hymns of praise and prayer despite the hardship from working “sun up until sun down” on different slave plantations. Regardless of their sufferings, trials and tribulations they believed in the power of prayer.

Historically, African-American people have been known to be very spiritual. From the old Negro spirituals sung during slavery, to using prayer as a catalyst for divine intervention during the civil rights movement.

Do you believe prayer is divine intervention? How has prayer sustained your well being or those women from your generation?

Violence

Donald Trump to Pay Legal Fees for Man Who Punched Black Protester

The ReadyWriter

trump-mcgraw-550x172Presidential frontrunner Donald Trump continues his divisive and dangerous campaign rhetoric.

On Sunday’s NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Trump reiterated his promise to pay the legal fees of a man who punched a black protester in the face at a rally in N.C.

Trump was speaking at a rally in Fayetteville, N.C. when 78-year-old John McGraw is clearly seen or caught on camera punching protester Rakeem Jones who was being escorted out of the Crown Coliseum, in the face.

McGraw was later charged with assault and battery after video of the incident surfaced on the news and online.

Chuck Todd asked Trump about an earlier statement in which the Republican presidential candidate promised to pay the legal fees of anyone who punched out protesters at an earlier rally.

After stating he does not condone violence, Trump said he wanted to see more about the incident involving McGraw.

“I want to see,” Trump said. “The man got carried away, he was 78 years old, he obviously loves his country, and maybe he doesn’t like seeing what’s happening to the country.”

Trump said he didn’t rule out paying McGraw’s legal fees.

“Well, I’m going to look at it,” he told Todd. “I’ve actually instructed my people to look into it, yes.”

Sex & The Power of the Pipe! on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

12809637_478407482368668_2417366051421375774_nSex is most often controlled by the compatibility of two people in a relationship. But what if that sex is so mind blowing that you lose all reason, logic and basic common sense? What happens once you relinquish all control and inabilities between the sheets? You find yourself vulnerable and submissive based upon the act alone. I believe the term used nowadays is “whipped!”

You find yourself thinking about that person, constantly thinking about the act and being a slave to the next encounter for the opportunity of your next fix. It becomes your addiction, the reason for that pep in your step and that glide in your slide. It has the power to change you. Change your attitude, your feelings, your emotions and inhibitions.
