Surveys have shown that the if the United States were to be the target of another terrorist attack, we would not be ready.

Society & Lifestyle > African-American Issues How to increase the number of African American students entering college
1 of 2

Studies have shown that African-Americans tend to enter college at later ages than other races. They tend to enter college once they have already graduated high school, having already been introduced to the "working world." What could be the cause of this? Could it be that the interest in education amongst the black communit... More..

Computers & Technology > Internet Security & Safety (Other) Is MySpace a safe Internet venue for teens?Smallicon
29 of 45

MySpace is not a safe venue for teens. I say this because of some of the pictures that the teens choose to post on their MySpace pages. If you look at some of these pictures and also at the screen names of these teenagers, you would think that they were auditioning to pose for Playboy or dance in a strip club. If this is tru...

Understanding ebonics....come on do we really have to? Being of African American descent, I am totally disturbed when I hear others in my race using this language which has been named "ebonics."

Education > College Life Should race be considered for college admissions?Smallicon

In reading some of the responses to this question, I must say, that I am a bit troubled. The assumption that the black race is the only race benefiting from Affirmative Action regarding college admissions is outrageous! I just read an article where the author referred to black college students that she went to school with as... More..

We live in an age where "fast food" rules. On every major intersection you can always find at least one of these: MCDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King or Taco Bell. Serving up a menu that is mainly cooked in beef shortening, it's not astonishing to know that most Americans are overweight. Who wouldn't be when served up a menu th... More..

Law & Legal Information > Lawyers & Legal Advice How to improve legal representation among incarcerated African-Americans

African Americans that are incarcerated will not get satisfactory legal representation unless they are prepared to pay for it.
