Even though 3Chics Politico is written and curated by three women: Ametia, Rikyrah, and SouthernGirl2, I must nominate this as one of the most engaging blogs I've found. Devoted to politics and culture, these three shine a light on contemporary life with humor and spirit.

YOU WILL NOT CUT OUR VOTING RIGHTS, OUR CIVIL RIGHTS, OUR MEDICARE, OUR SOCIAL SECURTIY,. “THIS IS NOT ABOUT OBAMA, IT’S ABOUT OUR MAMA.”
Here! Here!
Jusitce is NOT REWRITING VOTING LAWS IN 38 STATES.
even the state of Mississippi…sweltering with the heat of injustice….
even ALABAMA with it’s RACIST GOVERNOR….
AMEN!
…”down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification”.
We will NEVER be satisfied until…..
…”we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
YT GOP wants to suppress the black, hispanic, and poor white folks’ votes.
“We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote”.
Can someone give me a brief synopsis of what POTUS said?
he reminded folks that change takes time.
that MLK was a hated man.
that for every battle won, there will be losses
If ever this statement were truer, it is being witnessed and experienced today. 48 years afte MLK Jr.’s death, we have a memorial erected on the national mall. The first black monument on the mall and the first black POTUS. Yes, Carbo-Candy C., change takes fucking TIME.
THIS
a bad check…one marked ‘ insufficient funds’. thank you Dr. King
Hmmm, Gwen Ifill.
stevie!!
Go Stevie!!!!!!!!!!
Sing it Mr. Wonder! FLOTUS looks smachingly elegant.
make a way outta no way
change insists on persistence…yep
MLK was the most hated man in the America
I went to retweet your comment! lol
Because, he ALWAYS held out the postulate and worked to achieve the goal of AMERICA living up to it’s MORAL & JUST PROMISE. And YT didn’t want to HONOR THIS.
MLK: ” I say to America…Be true to what you said on paper”!
Shiiiid, these mofos are trying to REWRITE what was sealed on PAPER***CONSTITUTION****
Speak on it!
STAY AWAY FROM CNN JOE JOHNS AND THT CARBO ADDICT CANDY CROWLEY ARE BASHING PBO FOR BEING AT THE DEDICATION AND CONTINUING THE MEME OF PBO NOT HELPING BLACKS.
…I could smack’em!
POTUS!!
I missed POTUS’ speech!
Sing it, Aretha! Glory!
Praise Jesus!
ahhhh Aretha
do you see the First Family?
the kids look absolutely terrific.
Rev. Al is on point
Tommy Hilfiger is speaking.
Bring it, Rev Lowery!
Niki Giovanni was BRILLIANT!
Andrew Young is seducating the masses. Brilliant.
This is an older video of Andrew Young from August 2011, but his message is the same as this morning at the dedication.
Rep. John Lewis is delivering. Blacks had to count the numbers on a bar of soap, to count jelly beans, pass iliteracy tests in order to vote.
that shyt sounds crazy now….living through it must have been surreal.
The state of MISSISSIPPI sweltering in a sea of oppression and injustice.
Hurricanes and earthquakes cannot keep a good man down.
Here’s the C-Span link to the memorial dedication.
