Midterm Elections 2018: The Year of Women

“Make America Great Again” was the promise Donald Trump made two years ago when he became the leader of the free world. Improved health care, a better economy, and a border wall paid for by Mexico were on our horizon. What we got was scandalous investigations, corrupt international relations, and a flood of offensives that would have caused the start of impeachment hearings for any other seating US President. Trump’s racist rants and loathly lies have divided America versus bringing us together. America’s outlook was bleak rather than bright. Then midterms roll around and Americans who had enough of Trump ran, not walked, to the polls to turn lands that were once red, blue (or almost blue) again. Now with this shift in power, will America rise from the ashes of hate and stagnation to finally allow love and progress to prevail? If that happens then America can truly be great.

Mandatory Masks: Living the New Normal

“We are still in the thick of it,” said Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo at a press conference where she gave updates about the state of the county during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although the curve seems to be flattening, Houston has yet to reach its peak and new admissions of patients with the coronavirus are still occurring. This information coupled with research from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and others is of great concern for Judge Hidalgo and other leaders to the point that they can’t comfortably relax any precautionary measures that they have already taken. Saving lives is always at the forefront of Judge Hidalgo’s mind in every decision made in this crisis and why she issued a mandatory mask order on April 22nd.

How to have an earth-friendly Easter

Before you stock up on plastic eggs and grass, and harsh, chemical egg dyes, remember that Easter and Earth Day are just a few days apart. There are simple ways your family can celebrate this glorious season and still be good to Mother Earth.

This will satisfy your sweet tooth and your need to care for the planet. Read on for more of my earth-friendly Easter tips.

Once described by New York Daily as, "A triumphant event, filled with humor. Pure theatre" and Time Magazine as "A poignant, gripping, angry and beautiful work,” it is obvious that For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf, lives up to its raving reviews.

Having seen the movie by director Tyler Perry, I knew what I was in store for but I was not prepared for how deep the cast would dive into their roles.
