You Must Learn: What Is Democratic Socialism? (Video)

KRS said it: YOU MUST LEARN. At least for yourself, and not fall victim to others’ spin on taboo words like ‘socialism’ (because propaganda). ‘To stay on course means to ROLL WITH FORCE!’ So. Don’t come for Ana. At least not on Democratic Socialism. You will get schooled, which is good; but that slick dissing they try will fail.

Ana went on HLN and schooled a Conservative pundit on what Democratic Socialism really is.

Environmental Injustice And Racism In Uniontown (Documentary)

I’m from Alabama. From a Black community in Alabama. I know, even before the documentary laid this out, this level of injustice is being done to my people (and by proxy, to ME). Been being done. And it still hurts.

Residents of this town have been living under the thumb of environmental injustice and racism #ThinkingInColor

Freeway Speaks On The Struggle, On And Off The Mic (Video)

Ever since hearing that “Fear Of A Free Planet” single “Wasted” though… when he proclaimed that he was ‘on the list’ and ‘that kidney on the way’… I root even more for Philly Freezer. And I lean in for everything he is putting out out here. Facts.

That good word of goodwill might not ever get back to brother Free, but that’s my full disclosure and you can tell him I said it. Get back to full power soon, Freeway. Good interview.

“The Hate U Give” Shows How Hard It Is To Do Right When It All Goes Wrong (Trailer)

Halfway through watching this, you might have your mind made up as to whether or not Starr (with two r’s) should speak up… but keep watching. You KNOW it is not that cut-and-dry, and this trailer bears that out. Looks like a good flick to catch. In Theaters October 19, 2018.

Starr Carter is constantly switching between two worlds: the poor, mostly Black, neighborhood where she lives and the rich, mostly white, prep school she attends. The uneasy balance between these worlds is shattered when Starr witnesses the fatal shooting of her childhood best friend Khalil at the hands of a police officer. Now, facing pressures from all sides of the community, Starr must find her voice and stand up for what’s right. THE HATE U GIVE is based on the critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller by Angie Thomas and stars Amandla Stenberg as Starr, with Regina Hall, Russell Hornsby, Issa Rae, KJ Apa, Algee Smith, Sabrina Carpenter, Common and Anthony Mackie.

10 Essentials Kyrie Irving Can’t Live Without (Video)

Kyrie listed his notebook as his first essential, right off the top. When we posted Pusha T’s list on here, did anybody hear him say ‘notebook’ as part of his Essentials list (asking… would be interesting if the basketballer said ‘notebook’ but the emcee did not… just saying)?

From his notebook full of ideas to a Rolex Sky-Dweller, here are 10 items Kyrie Irving can’t live without. Kyrie stars in “Uncle Drew,” out in theaters June 29th.

Deliverance – “Slave To The Rhythm” feat. DMC

Wild!

Okay, you can stop with the fact that this dude has a joint on the books with DMC of RUN-DMC. Emcees are known for who they run with, and Deliverance is running alongside a legend! Let’s have a sample listen and see if he’s worthy of that position.

Scott Bradley Coleson was born on August 18th 1982 in Virginia, Beach Virginia. Better known by his alias, Deliverance, he has consistently delivered conscious and lyrical content for the past 5 years. In May of 2014, Deliverance decided to build his own record label known as Vicious Tunes Music Group. Vicious Tunes Music Group is an independent record label based out of the little town of Goldsboro, North Carolina. The label is involved with a variety of music such as rap, country, as well as R&B.

Deliverance’s vision for the record label is to grow to be the biggest independent record label on the east coast. Deliverance has big plans for a future tour involving affiliated artists and has more musical projects in the works. With numerous performances and appearances, Deliverance has opened up for many well-known artists in the music industry.

With 2018 upon us, North Carolina recording artist Deliverance teams up with Hip-Hop pioneer and legend DMC of the rap group Run DMC for an electric track with conscious lyrics called “Slave to the Rhythm” available on all download and streaming sites…
