Trump’s DEI rollbacks are starving Black farmers like never before

Black farmers are bracing for the worst as the Trump administration rolls back needed funding, including millions in grants that it has determined are “woke DEI propaganda.” “They’re really rolling back the clocks,” said John Boyd Jr., founder of the National Black Farmers Association. In addition to cutting needed financial assistance, the administration’s strong stance against DEI has resulted in Black farmers having challenges accessing bank loans and corporate sponsorships. “We’re hearing from companies that are running scared of having any sort […]

Meet the five Black candidates running for NYC’s mayoral democratic primary to faceoff with Mayor Eric Adams

If you’ve been watching the race for mayor of New York City, you know that there are two Democratic frontrunners the media has zeroed in on: Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani. As the former governor of the state of New York and a longtime politico before his resignation in 2021 over sexual harassment claims, Cuomo has an astronomical lead with Black voters in the primary race—with one Emerson College/PIX11/Hill poll putting him at 62% with would-be Black voters and Mamdani […]

Jeffries demurs on Trump impeachment, calls him ‘a hater’ for undoing Obama’s Iran deal amid escalation

U.S. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., slammed President Donald Trump for Saturday’s strikes in Iran without seeking congressional approval and questioned whether the commander-in-chief is “lying” to the American public about the scope and purported success of the military operation. “It’s not optional, Donald,” said Jeffries at a Monday press conference on the constitutional authority of Congress to declare war, not long after Iran launched retaliatory missiles against an air base in Qatar, where thousands of U.S. troops are stationed. Noting […]

Black members of Congress condemn Trump’s ‘unconstitutional’ strikes in Iran, demand answers

Black members of Congress swiftly condemned President Donald Trump‘s order for the U.S. military to strike Iran, potentially igniting a wider conflict in the Middle East that the U.S. has delicately tried to avoid for several years. “Donald Trump promised to bring peace to the Middle East. He has failed to deliver that promise,” said U.S. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., the Democratic leader in the U.S. House of Representatives. In a statement released Saturday night, Jeffries said the risk of […]

The war over federal troops in LA and the problem we all live with

There is a famous Norman Rockwell painting that stands out from the rest of his work not solely because of who we see in it but also because of who we don’t see. A little Black girl in a perfectly pressed dress with braided hair adorned by a bow walks face forward with a book and ruler in hand, looking past a big spray-painted slur on the wall: N*GGER. She is escorted by men in yellow armbands, who represent the […]
