I’m Back! It’s 2018! Ready, Set, Go!

Greetings! It’s 2018 and I’m back! It’s been a while however I felt it very necessary to return On The Real Grind blog post at this moment in time. We are at a crucial time in this world and there is a need for real free thinking perspectives that are open and not tied to the corporate structure and money. And of all the open, free thought perspectives, the black perspectives have been shut down and suppressed the most. On the national level, especially major television, blacks have no voice! TV ONE chose to end the only real, honest, open, free thought black news show we had, News One Now with Roland Martin! Really TV ONE?? So now our national black tv media is Don Lemon(CNN), Robin Roberts&Michael Strahan(ABC Good Morning America), Rev Al Sharpton(MSNBC) with a hand full of black correspondents, Eugene Robinson, Joy Reid, & Charles Blow to name a few, with Charles Blow being the most free thinking of them all, in my opinion. Although I have nothing against any of these black tv news personalities and I do watch them from time to time, I just feel their perspectives are controlled to a certain extent and we are short changed of the deep, real issues of our community and our perspectives on news events and stories. So the free thinking, open, unfiltered black perspective is now pushed to the internet, the websites, the YouTube video, social media sites, FB Live feeds, Podcasts, Streaming, and blogs such as this one you’re reading! On The Real Grind is a free thinking, unfiltered, uncontrolled, unapologetic black perspective(my opinion of course but allows the reader to express their perspective as well in the comments) on just about every subject from news to politics to current events to sports etc. On The Real Grind will also be informative and educational from a black perspective on issues that effect the black community and are important to us! I welcome you all to not only read my blog but interact as well by giving feedback in the comment section! Feel free to read my past blogs and please leave your comments! As always this is my perspective! Get ready, Let’s Go! Sound Off!
