What several international observers have for years characterized as a “pure genocide” of Christians in Nigeria has reached new levels. Since the Islamic insurgency earnestly began in July 2009—first at the hands of Boko Haram, a professional Islamic terrorist organization, and later by the Fulani, Muslim herdsmen also radicalized and motivated by jihadist ideology—over 60,000 Christians have either been butchered or abducted during raids, never to return and believed to be dead by their loved ones. About 20,000 churches and Christian schools have also been torched and destroyed during the same timeframe. These are among some of the findings published...

President Joe Biden’s effort to forgive farmers’ debts based on race continues as several Minnesota media outlets lament that too many white farmers are in the state and federal assistance is needed to correct past racist agricultural policies targeting black farmers.

Only 46% of black Americans have received at least one shot of the coronavirus vaccine as of Oct. 4, according to CDC data. “I also remember the ad campaign, this is your brain, this is your brain...

In a survey of parents in metro Chicago, nearly half of Black parents -- 48% -- said they were reluctant to have their kids vaccinated against COVID-19, researchers say. That's significantly higher than the 33% of Hispanic parents and 26% of White parents who expressed vaccine hesitancy, the findings showed. "As vaccines are becoming available to younger children, and with continued spikes in COVID-19 cases, it is of the utmost importance that we are able to widely distribute the vaccine," said study co-author Dr. Jennifer Kusma, a pediatrician at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago. "We especially need to reach the...

12 July 2021 Danish Student solves how the Universe is reflected near black holesAstrophysics:In the vicinity of black holes, space is so warped that even light rays may curve around them several times. This phenomenon may enable us to see multiple versions of the same thing. While this has been known for decades, only now do we have an exact, mathematical expression, thanks to Albert Sneppen, student at the Niels Bohr Institute. The result, which even is more useful in realistic black holes, has just been published in the journal Scientific Reports. A disk of glowing gas swirls into the...
