The iolani prep classic made a highlight reel of DeMatha High School’s 6’8 Forward Malcolm Thomas from their tournament in Hawaii. He was also awarded a spot on the the All Tournament team. Keep working young fella

The fact that Jameis Winston stealing $32.72 worth of crab legs while in college got 100xs more media coverage than Brett Farve embezzling 5 million dollars from a welfare fund should tell you all you need to know
They know Kyrie Irving doesn’t celebrate Thanksgiving and they know exactly why because he has explained his connection to his Native American heritage and the celebrated slaughter of his people. The media is being very intentional right now with Kyrie
KYRIE: "I don’t particularly celebrate Thanksgiving but anybody getting together with their families, blessings to all you guys. Enjoy the holiday, not a holiday for me, but please enjoy the food for me.”
“No wonder we don’t want to teach the truth, because we would have to look our children in the face and say our forefathers were the worst human beings in the history of mankind”
“Cop who shot
#RayshardBrooks
bodycam shows Rayshard talking politely and cooperating with the officers seconds before he was killed. Things took a turn when they tried to arrest him for being too impaired to drive. The problem here is, he was not driving, he was parked”
Shareef O’Neal battled back from open heart surgery and is now working and grinding on the summer league team for the Los Angeles Lakers and people out here who wouldn’t get picked up at the YMCA are clowning him on social media because of his last name ? Smh
Isn’t it interesting seeing all of the

#TamirRice
was murdered by Cleveland Police officer Timothy Loehmann while playing with a toy gun. He should be turning 15 today, but instead his parents spend another Thanksgiving without their son. This is why the players are kneeling!!!
The NFL is now thinking about a new idea - keeping teams in the Locker Room during the National Anthem next season. That’s almost as bad as kneeling! When will the highly paid Commissioner finally get tough and smart? This issue is killing your league!.....
I hope they share this video clip as much as they did the other one. Much Respect to Juwan Howard for consoling Kennedy Chandler the way he did. Real class act
Haven’t heard any of the media talking heads reporting about this. And sadly, all of the Black media and Black journalists who were literally running to bash Kyrie Irving a few weeks ago haven’t said a word about any of this either. Like not a peep. Not even a whisper smh
Ok I’m just gonna say it.
Naomi Osaka is everything many of us were hoping Tiger Woods would be. Proud of her full heritage, but fully embracing her Blackness
Dear Southwest Airlines: I’d like to report a person on my flight for “looking suspicious” Violence has been a part of their belief system and expressed by their cult leader.
His headdress, beard, and accent makes me feel very unsafe and I don’t trust the look in his eyes.
The silence of the Evangelicals, the All lives Matter crowd, the Anti Kaepernick crowd, the Blue Lives Matter crowd, who called Black Lives Matter violent thugs. You all don’t have anything to say when insurrectionists attack the seat of American government in an attempted coup ?
#JasonWhitlock
it’s called retargeting. Meaning it shows you ads based on your search history. Meaning, your holier than thou self just told the entire world that you’ve been looking up filth flarn filth in your spare time
I haven’t heard the ADL have any outrage about this. No upheaval of condemnation from Rabbis, comedians, media or accusations of Amazon being antisemitic ? No 6 steps for Amazon ? Nothing ? So was it really about fighting perceived antisemitism or was it about something else ?
Amazon's CEO announced that they will not remove the film that Kyrie Irving shared on Twitter:
“As a retailer of content to hundreds of millions of customers with a lot of different viewpoints, we have to allow access to those viewpoints, even if they are objectionable."
After attending Howard University, Chad Dillon moved to Atlanta and opened one of the fastest growing restaurants in the U.S. In his 1st year of opening, The Boiler Seafood & Crab Boil sold over 180,000 pounds of seafood grossing over $8,000,000 in sales
After seeing how white women voted 68% for Herschel Walker, I think it’s a good time to revisit this brilliant truth telling wrapped in comedy by Bill Burr
Dear white ppl: Stop lecturing us on the proper way to react to racism & police terrorism. That’s exactly what Dr King discussed in his Letter From A Birmingham Jail. You did it with Kaepernick, John Carlos & Tommie Smith, Ali & now
#MaxineWaters
That’s not how any of this works
“So
#KanyeWest
spent the last few years buddying up to a white supremacist who tried to instigate a race war and y’all are still gonna hype his album like none of that happened ? Alright then”
The hate that Coach Deion Sanders is receiving is the same hatred the Fab Five & Muhammad Ali received from Mainstream America for being too confident, too proud, too “uppity” too much out of “their place” So they were despised & ppl rejoiced when they lost & hated when they won
It’s hard not to notice the blaring difference in coverage, description, tone, the absence of insults or accusations of being “stupid” or “dumb” in the coverage of these two unvaccinated athletes. Especially by Stephen A Smith….but we know why
I’m won’t be sharing the video of
#PatrickLyoya
being shot in the BACK of the head by a Grand Rapids cop while he was on the ground facing away from the cop after a routine traffic stop. But I will share this photo of him. He was a 26yr old Congolese refugee who deserved better
“This is who Damar Hamlin is as a human being. Everyone will repost “the hit” but this is what should be going viral about who this man is.”
~Jay Williams
No athlete deserves death threats no matter what takes place on the court. Whether it’s Angel Reese, Gabbie Marshall or anyone else. And anyone justifying this is just a disgusting human being period.
A lot of people are coming to the defense of
#JerryJones
“It was a long time ago”, “He was just a teenager”, “People evolve”, “He doesn’t deserve this” etc etc. Chuck Modi puts it all into perspective. Great discussion
Katt Williams is not perfect, nobody is but hearing Deon Cole speak about him and reading all the ppl’s comments under his IG post about how he looked out for them and he didn’t have to and he never mentioned it publicly speaks volumes
16yr old Kalief Browder was sent to prison at Rikers Island for stealing a backpack he DID NOT steal & ended up committing suicide but Brett Favre is still walking around free after stealing MILLIONS from poor ppl. But you wanna say white privilege is a figment of our imagination
As we all watched the Dallas Cowboys lose, we should be reminded that Jerry Jones still hasn’t denounced racism, no 6 step program, didn’t have to meet with any Black community leaders or donate to any Black organizations or anything. Funny how that works
#JerryJones
#KyrieIrving
LeBron James questions why the media repeatedly asked him about Kyrie Irving sharing the documentary on his social media but hasn’t asked him once about his thoughts on the Jerry Jones photo. We know why but much respect to Lebron for making this point 👊🏾
@Georgia_NAACP
It’s amazing that this occurred in Feb and it took public outcry to get them arrested. Now let’s keep pushing for an actual conviction. George Zimmerman was arrested but he wasn’t convicted. Keep pushing 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
If Nicole Brown Simpson was Black, most white ppl wouldn’t care if OJ did it or not. The fact is, many white ppl wanted to lynch him in the town square like their grandparents used to if a Black Man was accused of even smiling at a white woman. Even after he was found NOT GUILTY
You know the brotha is going to die soon in the movie once he starts talking about his dreams of getting out of the hood, having a family and living a better life. I’m gonna start preparing myself now
#GameOfThrones
So y’all are still mad at
#Kaepernick
& all the
#NFL
players for taking a knee during the National Anthem because you feel it was disrespectful to our military, but you’re perfectly fine with
#Trump
refusing to go to the cemetery to honor fallen soldiers because of a little rain?
This is how the Dr King and Coretta Scott King statue should’ve looked if they weren’t deliberately attempting to display a deracialized, ambiguous, abstract image and purposely omit their faces to further white wash Dr King’s legacy
6 yrs ago today
#SandraBland
was found hanged in a jail cell in Texas
3 days after being arrested during a “failing to signal” traffic stop. Although there were many holes in the stories of the sherif & jail staff, no officers were indicted & it was ruled a suicide
#NeverForget
Be very leery of Black People who criticize
#JoeBiden
and
#KamalaHarris
non stop and list all of the reasons why they “don’t deserve our vote” because of their past but say NOTHING about
#DonaldTrump
’s present. They very well may be on the Trump payroll
Thuggish Arrogance ? For having pictures of his family, teammates and highlights from his season embroidered on the inside of his jacket ? Just call him what you really want to call him
Confidence is a necessary trait in a receiver, but this crossed a line. This is thuggish arrogance.
One of the many reasons I don’t have a 1st round grade on Malik Nabers.
So many people are shocked that the 5 cops who murdered
#TryeNichols
are Black. Do ppl not know how many Black ppl were historically (and presently) willing participants in white supremacy ? Evil comes in all colors
So let me get this straight, a few yrs ago
#MiriamCarey
a Black Woman made a wrong turn at a White House checkpoint and is gunned down by police. But yesterday a white man threatened to blow up the Library Of Congress, is arrested unharmed and a Congressman sympathizes with him ?
The hate that Angel Reese is receiving is the same hatred the Fab Five received from Mainstream America for being too confident, too proud, too “uppity” too much out of “their place” So they were despised and ppl rejoiced when they lost and hated when they won
Seriously though, if Lamar Jackson, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, Rashee Rice, etc etc did what Kelce did to Andy Reid they would’ve been called a thug and a menace and embarrassments to the NFL as a whole and there would be panels on the negative influences on our youth etc etc
Hold on now !!!! It was cute when Caitlin Clark did it. Y’all didn’t have any issues with it at all. So don’t be all outraged and talking about class and sportsmanship when Angel Reese does the same thing. We’re not doing double standards here

@BillOReilly
Well Bill if you didn’t have to pay $32,000,000 for sexually harassing your own coworkers, you could’ve used that money to really make a difference in Chicago yourself

They know Kyrie Irving doesn’t celebrate Thanksgiving and they know exactly why because he has explained his connection to his Native American heritage and the celebrated slaughter of his people. The media is being very intentional right now with Kyrie
Whew !!!

Attention Black People: Do NOT try this “joke” anywhere in the United States Of America. I GUARANTEE it will not end well, there will be no jokes no smiles and absolutely no laughter

#Fatherhood
So Kirk Franklin’s 33 year old son recorded a private conversation between him & his father in an attempt to “out him” only to have Black People all across the country now joining Kirk Franklin in cussing him out too lol
So I got an e mail from Fox News asking if I would be a guest on one of their segments to discuss how athletes are having their “human rights violated” and they’re being “unjustly coerced” into taking the vaccine. So now y’all care what athletes think ? Y’all are something else
Them: We need to get more Black people in positions of power. Then things will be a lot better
Me: Yea but what if they turn out to be like these Black people ? That definitely doesn’t help us at all. We need the right Black ppl in positions of power. Big difference
So if Donald Trump has to pay $83.3 million to E. Jean Carroll for defamatory statements he made against her, how much should he have to pay for taking out a full ad calling for the death penalty for the

This is what happens when you
let …..some ppl get too comfortable with you. Skip Bayless is the type to drop the n word b/c he thinks he’s “Down With The Brothas” and listens to Lil Wayne and wears Jordan’s. This cat made 3 slapped in the mouth statements in a one minute clip

was going to pull this as soon as she got on the stand. Didn’t see any actual tears but now it’s all “I wish he was the one that took the gun and killed me." Hopefully the jury doesn’t fall for this and she ends up getting off for MURDER but we’ll see
