Where is the Homeowners Relief You Promised, Obama?
It’s been a year since 49 states and the nation’s biggest banks concluded a $25 billion settlement of the robo-signing scandal, but not enough of the money has actually helped troubled homeowners, according to the Campaign for a Fair Settlement. “Subprime and predatory lending, the ballooning interest rates, unlawful foreclosures and plummeting home values have devastated Black wealth in this country,” said Rashad Robinson, of Color of Change, an 850,000-member Internet-based group. Peggy Mears, of the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment, told a press conference: “My demand to the President of the United States is that he hone his promise to us, to help homeowners.”

UNAC: “U.S. and France Out of Africa!”
“U.S. military operations in Africa have no moral or legal justification,” said Chris Gavreau, of the United National Anti-War Coalition, UNAC. “Suddenly, under the false pretense of the war on terror, we’ve got troops in 35 countries” under the auspices of the U.S. Africa Command, AFRICOM. “The U.S. is giving intelligence and logistical support to the French attack on Mali. The goal is to have political hegemony in an area rich in minerals and oil.”

France Should Ask for Forgiveness
“Militarizing Africa is not the way forward,” said Bahati Jacques, policy analyst for the Africa Faith and Justice Network. The Washington-based organization is celebrating its 30th anniversary and gearing up for a conference at Notre Dame University, in Indiana, March 1 through 3. “France should go to those they colonized in Africa and humble itself and ask for forgiveness for the humanitarian, political and economic crimes they have committed,” said Bahati.

Bush Policies Still in Effect Under Democrats
“Virtually every single appointment” President Obama “has made dealing with national security and foreign policy…were all strong supporters of the Bush policy and defenders of the neoconservative doctrine of unilateralism and running roughshod over international legal norms,” said Prof. Stephen Zunes, chairman of Middle Eastern Studies at the University of San Francisco. John Kerry’s rise to secretary of state is “part of that broad pattern.”

The NAACP’s Flawed Image
Rev. Edward Pinkney, the former NAACP leader in predominantly Black Benton Harbor, Michigan, led about 100 pickets at the civil rights group’s Image Awards gala, in Los Angeles. “The NAACP is out of touch with the community and a sellout to the corporations,” said Pinkney.
New Orleans Used as Guinea Pig for School Privatization
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, every employee of the New Orleans public schools, from principals to janitors and bus drivers, was fired. “This was a national effort to make New Orleans the charter town and to change urban education for the 21st century – to privatize it,” said Dr. Raynard Sanders, a former principal in the system. Sanders was interviewed on the Internet radio program “New Orleans Wake Up.”

Single Brooklyn Parent Beats NYC at Supreme Court
Sonny Southerland won a U.S. Supreme Court decision allowing him to sue a New York City social worker who took away his children and put them in foster care back in 1997. Southerland plans to keep up the legal offensive. “I have a responsibility to other children who are still suffering, that they are forcing drugs on, that they are using as sex toys in these so-called foster homes,” he said. “There needs to be some real oversight, here.”

Why aren't they putting the fire out?

Did they kill him and burn the body and all evidence?

We would've preferred they kept him alive and put him on trial. Or left the body for autopsy

1. The black face on white global oppression is attacking Africa

2. The New Nat Turner emerges: Christopher Dorner

Coincidence?

Alex Joker Jones promotes the idea that white people are the target. Ofcourse we don't believe this.

Are all Black's, Asians, arabs & Muslim, Latino Americans going to be interned as the white man goes nuts globally?

Re: Homeowner's Relief Story

After 4 years Color of Change NOW decides to make demands of King Barry? Too late Negroes. While you were busy circling the wagons around Obomber or obsessing over some p.c. shit, your president and his Treasury Sec sat on billions Congress set aside to help distressed homeowners until the program expired; and concocted a convoluted mortgage relief program that helped few but harmed many with its red tape and runarounds; and hasn't brought criminal charges against a single CEO or top manager involved in the mortgage scandal. Now that Barry doesn't have to worry about re-election, I wouldn't put much "hope" into believing he'll do anymore for distressed homeowners than he did in his first term. He had a Democratic majority in Congress for two years and did not do squat; this Republican majority he let happen will now be used as an excuse to do less than squat. The time to raise hell on the White House was the past 4 years. Even if Color of Change and its Obamabot brethren start squawking now, said squawking will be of a tepid tone that will scare no one, especially the current White House resident - one of the top reasons that resident doesn't do shit for them in the first place.

Ms. Mears from the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment comments on how groups such as hers got out the vote for Obama this past Nov and yada, yada. Another stone cold fool. After 4 years of getting the back of Obomber's hand, groups such as hers rallied the troops to re-elect the president instead of educating the troops on the third party candidates in the race and the need to begin a grassroots movement to support someone other than the Demowit or Rethug mafia.

Re: Rev. Pinkney's NAACP protest

Thanks, Mr. Ford for bringing up the subject of that protest being infiltrated with the pro-life crowd. If Pinkney's protest against the NAACP is to have any success his group will need to focus on the main issue - NAACP's lack of accountability to its black constituency. As with Occupy Wall Street, his movement can easily be sidetracked and hijacked by side and irrelevant issues.

Después de 4 años Color of Change decide AHORA para hacer demandas de rey Barry? Demasiado tarde negros. Mientras estaba ocupado dando vueltas alrededor de los vagones Obomber o obsesionarse con algo de pc mierda, su presidente y su Tesoro Sec sentaron en miles de millones el Congreso puso a un lado para ayudar a propietarios en dificultades hasta que haya expirado el programa, y confeccionaron un programa de alivio hipotecario enrevesado que ayudó a unos pocos, sino perjudicado a muchos con su burocracia y runarounds, y no ha presentado cargos criminales contra un solo CEO o alto directivo implicado en el escándalo de las hipotecas. kata mutiara cinta, Ahora que Barry no tiene que preocuparse por la reelección, yo no pondría mucho "esperanza" en la creencia de que va a hacer más por los propietarios en dificultades que lo hizo en su primer mandato. Tenía una mayoría demócrata en el Congreso durante dos años y no hizo sentadilla, esto mayoría republicana dejó que suceda a partir de ahora ser utilizado como una excusa para hacer menos de cuclillas. El tiempo de levantar el infierno en la Casa Blanca fue en los últimos 4 años. Incluso si el color del cambio y sus hermanos Obamabot comienzan graznidos ahora, dijo graznido será de un tono tibio que va a asustar a nadie, sobre todo la residente actual Casa Blanca - una de las principales razones de ese residente no hace una mierda para ellos en el primer lugar. bahasa inggris
