Posted on February 23, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By: Reginald Barbour It has been said before that Washington, D.C. is the land of educational opportunity. We have traditional public schools, public charter schools, private schools, micro-schools, home school co-ops, and opportunity scholarships available to the city’s residents.  However, all is not well here. Many people here don’t want to talk about it, but…

Black Panther and The Power of Representation

Posted on February 23, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By David McGuire   Just like millions of others I went to the movies to see the highly anticipated film, Black Panther. The movie was a piece of black magic. To sit in a theater and watch a movie dominated by black actors and actresses was priceless.  Black Panther was the mirror for black people. We saw hopes,…

All year long!

Posted on February 20, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By Cheryl Coleman Black History Month will be over at the end of February. The question that is asked every year is “Should we only have one month to celebrate black history?” I believe, Black History Month should be all year long. There are thousands of African American women, men and children that don’t know…

In Love with Another Man…

Posted on February 19, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By Marlena Little I’ve been in love with Black Panther since before I can remember, waaay before this weekend!  Believe it or not, I’m a comic book nerd. I was first introduced to comics as a third grader attending a predominantly-white “gifted center/school”where children from all over the Chicago-land area were taught. It was nothing…

Black and Brown Unity and the Poor People’s Campaign that never was

Posted on February 15, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By Gary Hardie It’s safe to say Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was stolen from us much too soon. I have listened to his final speech more times than I can count. His words in Montgomery the night before his murder were too specific and pointed to be a coincidence. I often wonder what he…

What are we debating about?

Posted on February 14, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By Raymond Weeden Over the past few years, researchers and advocates have presented a body of data which connects the impact of exclusionary discipline practices and student success. I recently sat in a public roundtable where advocates and researchers presented data to show the association between suspending a student and that child’s projected success rate…

Black Women- Backbone, Heart and Soul

Posted on February 14, 2018August 17, 2018 by Citizen Stewart

By Gary Hardie Black women didn’t just start coming to the rescue in 2017, saving US Senate races. They have a long-standing history of being the backbone, heart, and soul of movements, revolutions, and shaping history.
