Blacks Have Nothing To Complain About (And I Find It)


"A candid picture series exposing the lives of New York City nannies reveals how a deep-rooted racial divide continues to permeate the industry." 


"Outside of convicts, most poor farm residents were elderly and white. (With few exceptions, 'Mexicans and blacks were simply told that they were not eligible for relief and would have to find assistance elsewhere,' according to one historical account.)"



"On the way out of the museum, visitors are asked to cast their vote, yes or no, whether reparations should be given for slavery."



"Shruggie (noun): a person who doesn’t care,...their response is to shrug. Shruggies are fairly inert, they will not argue the merits (or lack thereof),...They simply aren’t all that interested in the discussion, and are somewhat puzzled by those who are."



"Those are the same markers and they were all where the pony was, but the ones that were missing are the ones (that belong to) humans," he said.


Despite it being years since he’s seen the gravesite, Morris said he vividly recalls what was written on each stone.

The Crack Emcee
The Crack Emcee was born in Los Angeles. His mother had a thing with Jazz legend Charlie Mingus (producing a sister). Crack served in the Navy before settling into the Punk scenes of Los Angeles and San Francisco. He went on to join the Beatnigs (1988) Consolidated (1992) Broun Fellinis (1995) and then started his own band, Little White Radio (1998). The Crack Emcee has also been releasing a series of critically acclaimed solo mix tapes - starting with 1995's Newt Hates Me - that have solidified his reputation. This output morphed into his solo album, the anti-war Rap's Creation (2002) which was nominated for Album Of The Year (in, both, Rolling Stone and the Village Voice) and that year's list of Hip Hop's Best Anti-War Songs. Crack is listed (twice) as `an artist dedicated to integrity in Donnell Alexander's memoir, Ghetto Celebrity, and is featured on the CD, Just Payin' The Rent: The Amoeba Music Compilation, Vol. II.
