  2. The Day I Met President Trump

    I will never forget the day President Trump invited me to the White House. Not once, but twice. I attended a conference in Washington, D.C., the Presidential Sites Summit, in 2018.

  7. The Chicks: The Rebel Sounds of the South

    Last week I was hit by an ad that said The Chicks were coming to Simmons Arena. I will not be the first or last Black American with a bad relationship with Country music, but I was intrigued and got tickets to the show. If I ever had the tenacity to sing karaoke, you would hear me sing every…

  8. Justice, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Irony: A 5th of July Reflection

    I won’t lie; I had a blast on the 4th of July this year. It was the first time I forgot about COVID, the insurrection, Donald Trump, Kaepernick, Trayvon Martin, Women’s Rights, mass shootings, and the recent disinformation tweet from our Governor, Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
