"Leave White Folks' Business Alone; Stay in Your Lane"

The call came in tonight. It was not hostile; it was advisory.

I was advised to “leave white folks’ business alone.” The caller was referring to recent articles I published on my Facebook page like the ones regarding U.S. Rep. Max Miller’s alleged spousal and child abuse, Kristi Noem's illicit love affair with Corey Lewandowski, the fracturing of Donald Trump’s MAGA movement in America, the collapse of America’s influence around the world, Carrie Prejean Boller’s declaration that “MAGA was a scam,” the crash of Michael Saylor and Bitcoin, the Trump family's crypto scams, Trump’s nonstop grifting, the botched Reflecting Pool paint job, the endless parade of MAGA pedophiles, Abdul Al-Sayed’s stunning victory in the Michigan Senate Primary, MAGA’s enduring agenda of hatred, MAGA's Hate Chart, Israel’s campaigns of genocide in the Middle East, Israel’s enslavement of American politicians, U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s plan to build a 30-foot high border wall around Alabama, CIA assassinations and coups around the world, the thoroughly corrupt MAGA-controlled U.S. Supreme Court, the CIA's Project MK-Ultra, Women of Power, America's historical mistreatment of Native Americans, the over-inflation of SpaceX’s IPO stock, Trump strategic loses in the Iran War, etc.

I did not realize that these topics were “white folks’ business.” I thought they were issues of significant public interests to all Americans and the other world citizens who read my articles.

Of course, I cover African American history as part of unvarnished American history. I cover a fair amount of world history, as well.

I was told that white folks are angry right now. "When they are angry, they hurt people," said the caller.

I was advised to stick with “Black issues” like the Karmelo Anthony, Nolan Wells, and Sean "P. Diddy" Combs cases and my articles on Black history and family history. “Be like Roland Martin,” said the caller. “He talks about Black issues, and he stays in his lane.”

I have a global audience that has grown organically to more than 4 million views per month across all of my digital media platforms. I cover trending stories and current events on domestic and international topics. I don’t have a lane that is defined by race. My journalistic lane is defined by subject-matter content only.

I am going to keep doing what I do!
