Charlie Kirk Mocks Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

 Don’t Give Pearls to Swine. (Matthew 7:6, 6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.)

Charlie Kirk, a right-wing MAGA leader who dropped out of Harper Community College shortly after entering the institution to launch a career in grievance politics, recently mocked Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson as having obtained a “DEI” education and her commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Oh, but he received an honorary Doctoral degree from Liberty University. Liberty University! Let’s pause for a minute.

Justice Jackson graduated magna cum laude from Harvard, served as an editor of the Harvard Law Review, clerked for a Supreme Court Justice, and now, she is one. Her legal mind has shaped federal jurisprudence at every level, from public defender to the Supreme Court. Step by intelligent step up the ladder. She didn’t buy her grades and degrees—she earned them.

Kirk? He co-founded a political organization at 18, built a media brand on outrage, and now hosts a podcast where he critiques the very institutions he never entered. He’s never argued a case, never written a legal opinion and probably wouldn’t know one if he saw it; he’s never sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution but has challenged it—yet he feels qualified to mock someone who has done all three, and with excellence.

This isn’t about disagreement, although it is very disagreeable and wrong. It’s about disrespect. Where is the respect due to the person of the Supreme Court Justice? This is a reminder that not everyone who speaks loudly has earned the right to speak on everything.

Some pearls—like wisdom, integrity, and lived excellence—shouldn’t be tossed before those who only know how to trample on them

Israeli Genocide in Occupied Palestine

Good morning. Israel killed 41 people in the last 24 hours, just outside the fenced-off distribution center. IDF opened fire on starving Palestinians waiting for entry to the food aid arena. It won't be their fault, even though it is 99.99 percent their fault.

MUSICAL GENIUS, THE STOMP

 Who is this, you ask? This is us. This is Black. This is our true and undeniable connection to deep, dark Africa. It's in our DNA. It’s in our genes. It’s in our Heavenly origin. That’s why our children need to know themselves. Any culture or ethnicity can claim a stomp (drum, thunderclap, but not this one). It has meaning that Black and Been-There-Done-That know. Even the deaf understand it when they hear (feel) it. You know it, whether you remember it or not. You feel it in the spine, the heart, the head. Own it. Little children recognize it when their ancestors or their present parents make them understand what they are witnessing.

 The teaching ancestors still, and will always, bend down and teach us cultural wisdom and knowledge. It is Black us. You know it and see it in church, in the home, in the honkytonk, in line dancing, in game arenas. The stomp is the sound of the drum (in us also, our heartbeats, our pulse, our words translated into drumbeats, into teardrops, especially into thunder – they are thunder. Elijah calls down fire from heaven (lightning, which are the hands) that strikes the drums (in you).

 The hand movements are beating those drums. The voice, well, you see what the voice does to the hands that beat the drums. Elijah’s voice controls the sound of the drums. Their feet are drums. Elijah is a woman. Watch her as she calls down fire from Heaven as her voice reverberates through the ether. Watch her right foot. She calls down fire (lightning, in their hands, the drumsticks), they stomp in unison. The inner and outer worlds are shaken.

Voter Suppression, Hopeful Resistance vs The Eroding Foundation.

MAGA Republicans are determined to suppress our right to vote to any extent they please. If they are successful with this treacherous act, it will severely impact - or take away - the votes of the marginalized people. Those who know they have taken living in a democracy for granted should take a step back and observe the consequences. Our children need to know these things because they will significantly impact them and their descendants for generations. 

If the minority vote can be suppressed, what's to stop the Nazis from erecting signs that show "separateness" in every area where people participate in societal activity. For example, “White’s Only” restaurants, Toilet facilities, even retail stores, and other venues. That is Jim Crow. 

Jim Crow was very shameful for White and Black people living in America.  If we lose votes by suppression, who's to say that our free speech won't be next? Then, if one article in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution can be changed by the MAGA legislature, why not two, three, four in the Bill of Rights? That's a chilling thought.

The people have the power to rise up against Fascism in the USA-Resist Authoritarianism

The Democrats are in a nightmare dream that they are fighting tooth and nail to wake up from. All of us are traumatized. We knew what the stakes were. We were already aware of Project 2025, which the dim-wit enemies of the people tried to make us disbelieve. But we did not. Some of us. I suggest some of the electorate didn't take it seriously enough to get educated by those trying to educate them about what danger the country was headed into. The wrong voters and non-voters got taken in by intentional misdirection and disinformation. 

Further, they swallowed unintentional misinformation that they believed without merit, like it was a batch of delicious teacakes, and they did not verify for their own sake whether it was truth or propaganda. They simply devoured it. Proving the truth is hard work sometimes because it does not prove itself. 

For example, verifying the truth is essential to good character and integrity. We must prove it with evidence, evidential truth; otherwise, it might even be true, but subjective. Let’s never consume QAnon-type lemonade. The Democrats are now sluggishly becoming alert. 

Some workers are trying to speed up that waking-up process. Do something. We can name some – besides Senator “Shero” Warren. My prayer is that Democrats get so mad at the depth of trouble they allowed themselves to be trapped in without a fight, they come out swinging and slinging truth like Wyatt Earp or Doc Holiday would a gun. We have the power to fight for the people. We must fight for the people. We, the people, cry out for it.

Abolishing DEI can never be justified

 DEI. That is the ideal. We have never achieved it—ever—but we have always been working on it. Every corporation or business bound by these DEIs' inclusiveness is still a work in progress. Everybody in the workforce knows it. The time never came when Black people didn't lose jobs because employers needed to make room for whites who needed their jobs. I know all about that. I was a victim at least once in my career, but I saw it happen to others everywhere I have worked. 

Employers can use any excuse they want to. For instance, Zuckerberg is a prime example of these employer types. The line of least resistance to justify firing a minority is either an invented work ethic, or ineptitude, which is a favorite, such as a Hispanic is needed for the position because the job now requires bilingual employees, among other things.

The sign that tells America that she has become a Jim Crow Era again will be if we see signs everywhere telling us we're separate but equal, Whites-only male and female restrooms: well-kept with plenty of toiletries in one area and, farther away from the whites-only area minority children will learn what it means when they see "Blacks-only Restrooms, coeds more likely than not. They will see us standing in lines to get food from eateries because Blacks will be relegated to the back of the building - where the kitchen is - and there will be only a few places to sit and eat a family meal. So, people will have to stand outside until a table is cleared for one more person or one more family to eat a meal.

As for other minorities, since they "separate" themselves from us to appear closer to the whites, I wonder where their restrooms and places to eat would be. 

For anyone who does not know, Jim Crow was as demeaning and scathing as our ancestors' horrors were in or during slavery, by degree. No soul that is awakened to the Light of understanding would want to go back and live in the Jim Crow Era. That would be as demeaning for white people, Asians, Latinos/a's, First Americans, and African American Blacks as well as other Blacks/ethnicities in America. Some of us work together toward the same goals, and some don’t want to be identified with the struggle of the Black-skinned ones. Truth liberates.

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised Song by Gil Scott-Heron ‧ 1971, Quoted by Kendrick Lamar in his Superb 13-Minute Super Bowl Sunday 2025, Half-Time Show

This statement appears in a poem by Gil Scott-Heron (April 1, 1949 – May 27, 2011), a man whose work deeply influenced social consciousness. Kendrick Lamar quoted it during his masterful performance on Super Bowl Sunday (https://bit.ly/3XmUL0L). Had Black people drawn more inspiration from Gil Scott-Heron and other activists and poets of his era, their challenges might have unfolded differently. They should be more hands-on in their revolutionary quest for deliverance from system oppression.

Moreover, if Black consumers studied and emulated the Black Wall Streets of the past, they could foster greater prosperity by building conscientious, self-sustaining communities. Close-knit communities working for the collective good could direct their economic power inward—investing in resources that create lasting financial solvency. With Black consumer spending power estimated at $1.6 to $1.98 trillion, there is immense potential to cultivate economic independence.

However, to harness this power effectively, Black communities must turn from equating material possessions with self-worth, identity, knowledge, agency, or personal power. A shift toward valuing quality over quantity would ensure that this spending power translates into something tangible and enduring.

PushBack advocates for having “boots on the ground”—actively engaging in economic and social progress—rather than being consumed by desk jobs, digital distractions, entertainment, and television. This wisdom, though paraphrased, remains a crucial call to action.

1. https://bit.ly/3QylOTf. Black Consumer Spending Power: The Black Wall Street article highlights that Black buying power in the U.S. is projected to reach approximately $1.98 trillion by 2025, reflecting a steady increase that underscores the economic influence of the Black community.

2. https://bit.ly/3EWgsyp. Economic Influence in Key Sectors: Nielsen's report, "Black Impact: Consumer Categories Where African Americans Move Markets," emphasizes that Black consumers significantly influence various markets, including beauty, personal care, and media. This influence showcases the community's substantial role in shaping trends and driving economic growth.

3. https://mck.co/41wX6IW. Opportunities for Growth and Equity: McKinsey & Company's article, "The state of Black consumers: An opportunity for growth and equity," discusses the projected expansion of Black consumers' collective economic power from about $910 billion in 2019 to $1.7 trillion by 2030. The article also highlights the importance of integrating racial equity goals into consumer businesses to better serve Black consumers and address existing disparities.

4. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwSRqaZGsPw; https://youtu.be/Xh08PtK-NoE?si=kUy0A0VZW6yoH0dm. "The Revolution will not be Televised," a song on Gil Scott-Heron's 1971 Album "Pieces of a Man". Stanza 1 of the lyrics: You will not be able to stay home, brother/You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out/You will not be able to lose yourself on skag/And skip out for beer during commercials, because/The revolution will not be televised. The second link is Gil Scott-Heron telling “His-Story" or the truth that whites whitewashed. Every line rhymes. Heron penned his creations for the most part. He created or wrote this The Revolution ~~. He was a prolific poet- songwriter; as Kendrick Lamar is today. The lyrics to the song are haunting being so true to the freedom struggle.
