This blog's mission is to improve Cultural Health, by raising Cultural Literacy and reducing Cultural Poisoning.
With respect to Cultural Literacy, I am focused on Classical African Civilization. With respect to Cultural Poisoning, I will help you understand how to Detect it, Correct it, and most importantly, how to prevent little children from catching it.

IMHO, tampering with the American voting system is Domestic Treason. This must be undone and the guilty punished, less we be condemned to live in an empty democracy. (Video)
"Free Speech for People" Coalition Calls for Constitutional Amendment to Overturn Supreme Court Allowing Unlimited Corporate Spending on Elections
Let's Go To The Video Tape
Part of the reason for the record-high campaign spending in this year's midterm elections is the Supreme Court's January ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. In a 5-4 decision, the Court ruled corporations have First Amendment rights and that the government cannot impose restrictions on their political speech, which cleared the way for corporations and other special interest groups to spend unlimited amounts of money on elections. Earlier this month, a group of more than fifty law professors and prominent attorneys issued a letter calling on Congress to consider a constitutional amendment to overturn the decision. We speak with two people involved with Free Speech for People, a coalition of public interest organizations that formed after the Citizens United ruling.
A flyer is circulating that is trying to mislead African American Voters. Don't believe the hype. It is a criminal attempt to tamper with a federal election. The FBI and the Justice Department must be brought in to hunt down the criminals and bring them to justice.
We should expect these attacks given the historically high percentage of Cultural Terrorists and Cultural anti-humanists in Texas. The New York Times put Texas at one end of the Southern Bigot Belt, see map. Keep a sharp eye in the other states. I hope the Dems, after the Bush/Rove fraud years of 2000 and 2004, have flying legal squads on full alert for 2010.
It is noteworthy that this federal crime should become public just as Election Thief Karl Rove is served with subpoena. It is time to put people in jail, no more slaps on the wrist for risking our Democracy. It is time to make voter tampering, the crime of Domestic Treason with serious penalties up to life in prison.
The 2010 Texas voter fraud has caused me to rewrite Section 5 as follows.
Section 5. All the votes of every voter must be counted in Federal Elections. Any form of tampering with elections, especially by secretary's of the various states or the courts, shall be considered an act of Domestic Treason with punishment not to exceed life in prison.
I predicted that Mr. Williams when fired from NPR for his anti-Islamic remarks, would get a job with the Fox in a minute. Black College students know cultural treason when they see it. (Video)

Culturally unhealthy language ahead. Do not proceed if you are culturally sensitive.
There is an old African saying, If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a Duck, it is a duck. This is what I wrote early in the week on MSNBC/Newsvine.
------------------
Hetep and Respect folks it is amazing how so many of my fellow Americans make poor judgments like the Iraq war because of Cultural Illiteracy.
Juan Williams African Latino American, like AA's Armstrong Williams and Clarance Thomas are cultural traitors well known to the AA community. Their being payed off by Cultural anti-humanists Republicans is a matter of public record. These are in Reality boot licking Republicans themselves. Mr. Williams is a chronic suffer of Cultural Poisoning and is on the record as not Voting for our President and voting for anti-vitamin McCain.
On the Fox News Channel, after he told Bill O'Reilly that he gets nervous when he sees people in Muslim garb on an airplane.
This is not surprising, Williams was a cultural coward long before he went to an airport and saw Muslims.
Serious Republicans are getting tired of the Confederate Party, that drinks tea and the few treasonous Black people that they rent from time to time.
Not to worry, that foreign "news" service, the Fox, will give him a job in a minute. Watch, he will be the anchor of something over their in a minute.
Elect NO Republican for 100 years.
-------------------------
Talk about giving him a job. Not even a week after my prediction.
Fox News richly rewards Juan "Muslims make me nervous" Williams with $2 million contract
The behaver of Cultural Terrorists is always predictable we have been watching them for hundreds of years here on Turtle Island (United States).

The Good news is, the foreign news service Fox is not fooling anyone. The youth are on point. They may not use the Cultural Health language I use yet but, they know treason when they see it, and they call it like it is, no punches pulled.
Amen!
Note: knol consideration for Cultural Treason
I use my Iphone 4 to listen to music, play the piano and a few other instruments but this young lady has taken it to a whole other level. (Video)
Great cover, This young lady is a great musician with good tech skills, I look forward to seeing more of her work. Props! The practical functionality levels that individuals are taking this new portable communications technology to is remarkable.
Think about it, she probably created the percussion and melody on her Iphone on her way home from Juilliard on the train. When she got home, she hooked up the technology and recreated this video (probably on a High Definition Iphone 4, edited it and uploaded to YouTube directly from her phone) for us to watch, wow!
Welcome to Teabonics 101. This phanonmana is sweeping the Republican conservative nation. Learn to speak teabag in 2 minutes (Video)
Let's Go To The Video Tape
The Confederate Party, that drinks tea has created a new from of English found in their signs and speech. The language consists of spelling, grammar and pronunciation errors. The first person I heard speak like this was George Bush. He and his forty thieves would use the phrase Democrat Party, they would never say Democratic Party. This Bushism and many others appear to be the way Bush thinks and speaks.
With the rise of the Bush undead, others who think like Bush also reflected their thinking and speaking in their signs at Tea Party functions. Many credit the coining of the term Teabonics to the March 28, 2010 photo gallery on flicker. I credit the language and odd form of thinking and speaking to George Bush who was not known for being excessively smart.
Teabonics: the new language of the Tea Party movement
Along with the Tea Party has risen not only an incoherent political movement but exciting and refreshing variations on the English language. Now Flickr user Pargon has collected together many fine examples of “Teabonics”, the curious pidgin that has emerged on the simple signs and crude posters handcrafted by the modern-day Poujadists:...
Obama knows his religion. He explains why America must have separation of Church and State. I layout the case for separation of Corporation and State (Video)
The President's words of clarification and edification regarding "separation", are particularly instructive as we move into the November 2010 midterm elections, with Republican extremest like O'Donnell, the Tea Party and their "Christian Nation" code, trying to blur and in some cases erase these traditional separations.
Let's Go To The Video Tape
In summary, we are a multi-ethnic nation and a multi-religious nation. All Americans could not, and would not, agree on what a state religion should be, unless by coercion. Therefore we have separation of Church and State, so that the historic evils of "Religion" do not creep in and corrupt the government of the people.
Government's role is to protect and provide for the general welfare of the people. Religion's role is to provide for the spiritual development of its members. It is wise not to let one interfere with the other in modern day America.
I assert that the same principles that govern Separation of Church and State should govern Separation of Corporation and State, for the same reasons. That is, so the historic evils of "Corporations" do not creep in and corrupt the government of the people. An example of this is, the disgraceful Republican Supreme Court Ruling that Corporations have the same rights as human beings.
We must correct this monetary corrupting evil by constitutional amendment. I therefor propose The Separation of Corporation and State constitutional Amendment as follows.
Amendment XXVIII v1.2
Separation of Corporation and State
Purpose: To prevent criminal interference in the Electoral process as set forth in the constitution of the United States of America.
Section 1. Any attack or other interference in the electoral process by a foreign entity, Government or multi-national government (Corporation) is an act of war against the people of these United States. Any person or organization adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort shall be deemed to have committed treason.
Section 2. All officers are personally liable for the actions of the corporation. They can not buy "officers" insurance or engage in any other scheme to defraud section 1.
Section 3. Corporations are not human beings and do not have the rights of humans
Section 4. Corporations can not spend one red cent on any political activity.
Section 5. All the votes of every voter must be counted in Federal Elections.
Section 6. Congress shall have the power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
1. Do you agree in principle?
2. How would you add or subtract from Separation of Corporation and State?
The Old incandesent bulbs use a lot of energy, get hot and burn out fast. CFL replaces them mainly because they use 1/3 less power, run cool to the touch and last much longer. The problem is they contain mercury (toxic substance). LED's are a new green hope for the future. (Video)
Let's go to the Video Tape
Light Bulbs 101
I have an LED flash in my Iphone 4, works great and doubles as a flash light that uses virtually no power and will probably out live me. Here is a link to some more info on LEDs. Look at the last video, guy doing in home live testing and talking.
I use CFL's now house wide. I know a local designer who made them with negative Ion Emitters built in. Naturally, I get a great wholesale price. Initial LED price will be an issue for many. However, if price is not an issue LED's are the way to go. If Green is your focus, then LED's at any price is the way to go.
Radio free you have convinced me to start test driving LED's. You are responsible for me putting an LED in one of Cultural Health Resource locations.
There are the 10 commandments of main stream media news that most reporters follow. I write about Cultural Health so the "commandments" needed some modification.
I am African American so my AA cultural Orientation is reflected in these commandments. If you are Asian American or Latino American modified, these commandments will function for your ethnic group too, check it out and tell me what you think.
1. Cultural News is at the intersection of culture and News. Big news is where the pictures are in cyberspace and/or the video is on YouTube or supplied by a hyperlocal news reporter.
2. The Days news has to fit in 4 or five paragraphs or 1 to 2 minutes of video clip on your blog
3. Use Cultural Health phrase bites (like MSM sound bites) connected to Knols e.g. Cultural Poisoning, Cultural Literacy, Cultural Terrorism
4. Anything the First AA President does is potentially Cultural Health News. Anything done against him, friends or family is potentially Cultural Health News.
5. If the competition has it, carry it, but put your own cultural commentary on it. Your unique view from a Cultural Health perspective is what is added value to the story. e.g. Angry Blacks get more media attention than 'nice' Blacks. Other ways to get media are to be insanely rich (Oprah, Bill Cosby), or to rhyme (Muhammad Ali, Hiphop singer etc.). Or to be a Black Anti-Black, a Cultural Traitor like Clarence Thomas, Alan Keyes or Armstrong Williams. The competition my carry it but the Cultural Health news task to shed light in dark places, play the good actors more then the bad actors an put the average man into the popular mix.
6. A little show biz doesn't hurt. That translates into, sometimes dramatic "racially" or politically charged headlines are needed to get peoples attention but then be serious and civil in content.
7. Cultural news follows the Network News which, has to follow the lead of the New York Times and/or the Washington Post, with imitations of the original story - Cultural Commentary added. Old Commandment superseded by Cultural News follows Cybernews like Newsvine, Google News, Twitter, Buzz, etc.
8. Visually unexciting stories are TOLD, while visually engrossing stories are SHOWN. Rodney King police beating or a Police shooting are shown while a story of institutional discrimination or invisible Cultural Poisoning is not told.
9. If it it did not happen today, it is not news anymore. Exception, cultural injustice anywhere at anytime is an injustice when I/public finds out about it. e.g. America infecting Latio's in Guatemala with syphilis 40 years ago is cultural news today, because we found out about it today.
10. Leave the viewers/readers thinking a little harder then they were before, and/or challenged to act.
What did I leave out? How would you modify these 10 for your ethnic group.
The President raises and important question about the United States Chamber of Commerce. Are they taking money from foreign company's and/or governments to subvert the American political process? (Video)
First you should understand that the deceptive name, United States Chamber of Commerce, might lead you to believe it is part of government, it is not. It is the largest lobbying organization in the Nation. And has nothing to do with the government despite the "United States" in its trade name.
The President has said, as reported on Hardball, "..two groups funded and advised by Karl Rove.....Just this week, we learned that one of the largest groups paying for these ads regularly takes in money from foreign sources. So the question...is, are you going to let special interests from ...maybe places beyond our shores ... tell us who our Senators should be? That's not just a threat to Democrats but our democracy.
This brings up the question of Corporate Chamber of Commerce Treason, IMHO. The President has raised a flag that something is rotten in Denmark. Here is the DNC's first Chamber of Commerce Treason Ad. We must demand that the full financial records of the Chamber of Commerce be sent to a federal judge. If they have taken money from foreign corporations or governments and used that money to subvert the American voting system, they must be tried for treason.
The ultimate solution is for us to pass, what I am calling the Separation of Corporation and State constitutional amendment. I.e. no corporation can spend one red cent on lobbying or any political activity. This is the action needed to undue the treasonous damage done to our political process by the now disgraced Bush Supreme "Court".
This is a very important reason for our fellow Americans to go to the Polls in November and insure that the TeamAmerica we elected has the power to make this happen. Noting less then our democracy itself is at stake.
Who is Chavez? Did Bush attack Venezuela in 2002. Why did President Chavez call Bush the Devil at the United Nations before all the world's leaders and receive applause.

The Question is, did George Bush try to kill the first African Latino President in South America and "re- enslave" his people? If so, why? If this was done and the American people did not know about it and approve it, is it treason or otherwise against American law?
I wrote this back in 2002 but did not publish it. I thought today "Columbus day", was an appropriate time to revisit this indigenous people of Turtle Island issue. We should move to replace the Culturally unhealthy Columbus day with Native American day honoring our first citizens. This would begin to heal America's World War Zero crimes against humanity. Acknowledging our original sins is a minimum for moving our country forward beyond tolerance to harmony.
African American Loyd Marcus is caught on tape By CNN committing Cultural Treason. Like Clarance Thomas, every American, especially AA's, should know him on sight and treat him accordingly. (Video)
The Black person who is obviously and African in America is suffering from an overdose of Cultural Poisoning. Some will say that he simply sold out for money or fame. I disagree, while that is one reason for treason, Mr. Marcus goes far beyond this in standing with individuals like the woman in the video with the monkey insult to his ethnic group. He has also made a Athem song for the Confederate Party, that drinks tea.
Mr Marcus gets the Cultural Dishonor Award for October, 12,010 ASD, so let it be written. The punishment for AA Cultural Treason is traditionally to be ostracized from the larger African community. Mr. Marcus joins other award winners know to our community like Clarance Thomas, Armstrong Williams etc.
I recently came across an undated clipping declaring that there are ten commandments that govern what stories get on network news.
The writer, Frank Greve, declared it was no accident that all three networks had recently ended their broadcasts with a story about the guy who wears a chicken costume to sporting events. The uniformity had gotten so bad that on only three nights in a given April, did the networks open their broadcasts with a different lead story. Perhaps the cookie cutter mentality that produced such uniformity is what led to the loss of dominance when Americans go
It is most remarkable to here Big Ed introduce Black Ice. Black Ice used his artistic gift of mixing poetry and Hip Hip, to share a new vision for our youth.
A most powerful force for embedding Culturally Healthy images in our youth.Did you hear the Cultural Literacy reference to Willy Lynch? What time is it. Are you a Cultural Soldier or a Sleeping Giant, Stand uP!
The One Nation rally was billed as the Big Ed Labor Rally, the antidote to the Beck corporate rally. I think Lindsay and Al stole the show. Listen to them speak about education, the November mid term exam and connecting the biblical American bones. (Video)
Now I'm and Ed Head, and Ed is doing a fine job in keeping Jobs and Buy American on the front burners of our Nation. But if someone asked me who gave the better speech, Ed or Al, I might say Al. What would you say?
Seriously, we must compare who said what at the Labor rally and the corporate rally, if we are to make an informed judgement in November, as to how the Nation's agenda must move forward. Beck quoted the bible and told those assemble to "pick up a stick". I just heard Rev. Al quoting the bible and paint a picture for those assembled of a connecting American people of every stripe into One Nation working together.
As I vote in November, I have to ask myself, do I want Americans connected or carrying sticks. How do you answer that question for yourself?
The day after the march there was a bogus Cultural Anti-humanist One Nation YouTube Channel put up. The real One Nation YouTube channel is up now and you can hear any of the speakers you might have missed on this channel. Everyone did a good job and now we must keep the 10-02-10 call to action in play to 11-02-10
Who was your favorite speaker at One Nation and why?
Al Sharpton Lin McCluskey Speak at One Nation Rally
The President Barack Obama will have solar panels put on the roof of the White House, according to Energy Secretary Chu. Democratic solar panels were first put on the roof by President Carter. Republican President Reagan ripped them off the roof and now the Dems lead us Green to future jobs, by putting them back. (Video)
I did a piece questioning the President's judgement in leaving the White House White, I am glad to see that his judgement has improved. The White House must lead the way in shining the light on Green and Technology jobs in general. This is exactly what our country needs a shining Green House on the hill.
In 08, the Republicans offered us the self admitted Computer Illiterate, John Anti-Vitamin McCain, I think we the people made the right choice.
We just finished the Beck "Honor" Rally and the Big Ed Labor Rally, there were many obvious differences in the two rally's, one of them is that one was focused on jobs and the other was not. We have lost a lot of Technology jobs in America because Republicans and corporate Dems have sold us out to China and India, this must stop. We must go Green and Buy American, but the foxification of the news has blocked this message out for many.
I hope you get this message, China is not going to eat our technological lunch, because America is going to Vote Yes to the President's High Tech green vision and high tech jobs in November.
What do you think, did the President make the right decision to put solar panels back on the roof? Do you think we would have gotten a Green Vision, or solar panels if the Republicans were leading this country?
Original Poll and discussion found at MSNBC/Newsvine
Just when you think you have heard it all, Beck and the Confederate party, that drinks tea, proves you wrong once again.
According to beck, slavery was not really evil and bad until the government stepped in to regulate it.
Just in case there was anyone left that thought Beck's Restore Honor rally was about God, honor or any other good things for this county's future, say uncle, I didn't here you, louder pls.
Listen to his words, if you don't believe his words, believe his Pictures. Ed Schultz calls Limbaugh and the teanuts psycho talkers. Ed is a kind man. I think it is more accurate to call them Cultural Terrorists that operate in a psychological range just short of criminally insane.
You have to give Beck credit for one thing. He knows how to make Monday morning news, by giving his confederate supporters something to talk and cheer about, and pulling the progressive's chain into another major distraction discussion.
Also see what happens when the the good American Sleeping Giant Donald Duck meets Glenn Beck.
Let's Go To the Video Tape!
Let this be the last time. The next time someone say' Beck or Tea Party to you say Beck said, "...It was good to enslave Black People..." and walk away. Everyone ought to know who Beck is by now.
Back to the business at hand, how do we create jobs and reinvent America after the Bush/Republican Recession/Depression? Don't get angry get even, see you at to polls in November. Trust me, this is not the election to stay home on!
Did the Beck Corporation rally or the Big Ed Labor rally look more like TeamAmerica. Which, from a National Cultural Health perspective was most inclusive? Look at the pictures and you tell me. (Video)
Big Ed gave a fiery speech at the One Nation Working Together Rally in Washington D.C., Ed speaks for many in this land who can not speak for themselves.
Fox was the first up on YouTube with a video news report. You will notice they did not mention Ed. All the pictures seem to be of the early crowd, now I could be wrong. I am an Ed Head and Ed did a good job, see my summery below.
We did not get all that we wanted in the first two years, but we must go to the polls in November. We are Pro people not corporations. The other side is pro profit and anti people. We will get universal health care, we will create jobs. Public Education is open to all. Our union brothers and sisters we must stand up against the forces of evil, the conservatives. God Bless America and our troops.
If you don't know Ed or watch his show on MSNBC you should he is a man of the people and on point most of the time. He is the anti-Beck/Limbaugh and God knows America needs one.
Rev. Al also gave a good speech that hit important points about where we are, and what must be done as we connect as One Nation. I will link it here if someone puts up or points out a clip.
Black Ice also did a remarkable poetic job.
All in all the rally was excellent. I think they had 1/2 million to 1 million on the ground in Washington and many hundreds of thousands at One nation rally's and house gatherings around the country. The progressives are alive and well and will show up at the polls in November to kick but.
How do transnational corporate governments function. Through competition as we were taught in school or is there another way. (video)
Confessions of an Economic Hit Man is a serious and chilling book written by a former United States Economic Hit Man who went public. This short video summarized how United States Mutant capitalism works. The fight for our countries future is not between ethnic groups it is the people vs. the corporation.
If America now has to actually compete against China, how will she do that if there is no history of real competition. We will not be able to IMF or kill and steal our way out of China competition.
