    Is the American 'empire' ending?

    The thought of America not being the world police is very interesting.

    Making moves locally

    What are you doing to push the B1 agenda forward in your home town? One thing I'm doing locally is connecting with Black businesses and other skilled people with Black First in mind. There aren't many businesses to begin with in Sunset, but we have to start somewhere. I plan on branching out in...

    Best Mario game?

    Super Mario Brothers 2 was a favorite of mine. SMB2 featured the introduction of Yoshi, a mainstay in the Super Mario Bothers' universe. Where else can you throw around Shy Guys?

    What are your thoughts on company's labeling products "Black Owned"?

    I think that labeling products as Black Owned is a good idea. Marking products as Black Owned lets us know that our people are creating products and not just consuming. The labeling fits a thought process that I use when visiting restaurants: I look for the Black waiter/waitress so I can give...
