ATLANTA (AP) — The pastor of a Georgia megachurch who led a nationwide 40-day “fast” boycott of Target stores over the retail chain's commitment to diversity initiatives is now calling for that effort to continue as a “full Target boycott.” The Rev.

Among them: Restoring its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion principles and pledging money to Black-owned banks and businesses. Target announced in January that it would phase out a handful of DEI initiatives, including a program designed to help Black...

The story of Black conservatism begins in the aftermath of the Civil War. Freedmen who sought to rebuild their lives aligned with the Republican Party—the party of Lincoln—championing abolition, civil rights, and Reconstruction. Leaders like Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington personified this era, urging self-reliance, education, and economic empowerment as the path to equality. Yet, by the mid-20th century, the tectonic plates of American politics shifted. The Great Depression, the New Deal, and the Civil Rights Era drew Black Americans into the Democratic fold. The Republican Party’s pivot toward a “Southern Strategy” further alienated Black voters, leading to the...

Chaos unfolded on a small island in Georgia as Spring Breakers descended onto its once serene beaches to binge drink and leave mountains of trash in their wake.

I have been provided with several rations’ worth of bitter amusement over the last few years , when reading various news stories, especially those concerning incidents of murder, rape, mayhem and property crime – most of which can be laid at the door of a certain violently dysfunctional urban demographic – and then comparing the sympathetic manner in which that specific demographic is presented in pop entertainment. Yes, just as the sun rises in the east, one can absolutely count on black urban youth being cast as hapless, misunderstood yet endearing rascals, automatically the prime suspect in a murder actually...

Former President Barack Obama sought to distance himself from the Democratic Party after leaving it in shambles following his departure from the White House, according to a new book.

Instead, the authors allege, Obama curried favor from a group of “black professionals” for his campaigns, unlike former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and former President Joe Biden. Additionally, Obama’s creation of Organizing for Action — a...
