my intention with this blog is just to keep up with what's going on out there, and see how it relates to the diaspora and to well, my peers and i, really. hot off the presses: the supreme fucking court just determined that the disparity in sentencing guidelines between crack cocaine associated crimes and cocaine powder associated crimes CAN be addressed by federal courts. think about that for a minute. anyone who's been close to this situation for the past 20 years knows that minority populations have largely been targeted through the lack of parity in sentencing guidelines as they are more likely to use and sell crack cocaine than powder, which is used largely by affluent whites. in my time working with homeless people and dudes coming out of corrections, this has been awful to witness. way to go supreme court. a little late, but we'll take it. of course, in addition to alito, uncle clarence was the only other justice opposed to this. way to go, big 'C' little 'larence'! oh, and speaking of prison time and blacks, that black dog-fighting qaurterback has FINALLY been sent to FEDERAL prison for almost two years. now we can all sleep tight, knowing that vick's not breaking into our homes to set our dogs on 'rape-stands.' i hate to say it, but we all know it: all of you high profile blacks out there have been put on notice. you can still be broken any time.
