“Depression and the holiday season” tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

holiday-depressionThe holidays are supposed to be a time of joy and celebration, but for some people they are anything but….Because we all deal with different issues this holiday season, it is not always a joyous occasion. We all have different burdens that we may bare and the holiday season can unleash every ounce of one’s dysfunction.

Some people are dealing with sadness and the stress of spending time in a dysfunctional environment, being with a loved one or just dealing with loneliness.

Sadness and depression is real, and if your feelings of sadness during the holidays are accompanied by suicidal thoughts, do one of the following immediately:

  • Call 911.
  • Go immediately to a hospital emergency room.
  • Contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255).

In the meantime, tune in LIVE at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio for my monologue on this topic of discussion and how to deal with such despair.

The State Of Black America w/Dr. Malik Shabazz on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

With the number of African American men and women who have been gunned down and murdered at the hands of police, sparking civil demonstrations and civil unrest throughout the country, we are no doubt in racial disparity.

In the last five (5) years under the Barack Obama administration there have been more killings and protest by African Americans since that of the 1960’s and the Civil Rights Era. And since the recent murders of Philandro Decastro, Alton Sterling and host of others, from Ferguson Missouri to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, each and all, were black men or woman who died at the hands of police.

Join Host Tracy L. Bell “LIVE” at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio with special guest, Attorney Malik Zulu Shabazz National President of Black Lawyers For Justice., as she sit down with him to discuss “The state of Black America, Police Brutality and the new Black Panther Party”

Protest but No Plan, Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

Since the senseless murders of two unarmed black men at the hands of police, the outrage has sparked protesting and demonstrations across the country.

The death of Alton Sterling, a 37-year-old father-of-5 was selling CDs outside a Baton Rouge convenience store when he was killed by 2 cops early last Wednesday. And 32-year-old Philando Castile, a Minnesota cafeteria worker who was shot to death on Wednesday by a milquetoast cop during a routine traffic stop.

We’ve seen such tragedies far too many times, and people are angry and outraged because “enough is enough!”

The cries for justice has been ignored far too long! So what is the clear path to justice? What are the steps for action and purpose of these many demonstrations that have been taken to the streets?

Join me at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio for tonight’s conversations and topic of discussion “Protest but No Plan”, with my special guests (pictured above); author, activist and black panther member Ms. Karen Tucker and Dr. Obari Cartman author and justice advocate.

We will be taking your calls and comments in the studio at 1-917-889-7872.

Is there “Light skin vs. dark Skin” privilege in Society? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

Light_Skin_PriviledgeHard to believe we did a show just four (4) years ago, in 2012 regarding “Light Skin vs. Dark Skin” and this very topic is still alive and very well today.

Since Grey’s Anatomy star Jesse Williams spoke out of turn (for some), at the BET Awards last month, social media and online blogs felt he wasn’t black enough to do so.

Williams, who is half white, called out white people for appropriating black music for fame and profit.

He also showed support for social media militants, Black Lives Matter, saying, “We know that police somehow manage to de-escalate, disarm and not kill white people every day.”

Williams, whose mother is white and father black, let the world know just how comfortable he is NOT with his fame, in today’s hateful society of injustice and inequality.

Williams’ speech set-off such a firestorm online and in the media, that a petition was circulated calling the series creator Shonda Rhimes to fire Williams from ‘Anatomy’.

Many saying if Isaiah Washington was fired for being outspoken Williams should be fired just as well. Setting off the theory that “light skinned” blacks receive preferential treatment over “dark skinned blacks”.

Tune in tonight at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio for this discussion “Is there “Light skin vs. dark Skin” privilege in Society?”
