On September 1st, Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! was arrested in Minnesota for reporting on the protest at the Republican National Convention. (Click here to read the story)
How extreme do circumstances need to be before people begin to act? Arresting citizens without charges or due process violates the 5th amendment, but that's exactly what the Patriot Act does. Arresting people for protesting or reporting on protesting violates the 1st amendment, but its been happening routinely since 2001. Dissent is being met with state sponsored force. Those who see can't wait until they are the targets of this force to see its folly, and those who agree with the current administration's policies won't forever, and will be too late when the do find themselves on the opposing side. If Americans don't act soon to revive real democracy, we will all be the Facist we preach against, if it's not too late already.

Race. Religion. Politics. Humanity.
FAQ Everyday- Our Mission
What is Black Everyday?
It all started with race [the divisions], and the statement "I'm black everyday." Then came the political discussion [the legal actions], followed by religion [the motivations]. Those topics and what they represent individually and collectively paint the picture of us, humanity. Shine light on the present, and in the future there will be no dark past.
Is it for Black people only?
Yes. No, I'm kidding. No. Some blacks just feel their opinions are not properly expressed in the media, and many people feel the news is too influential instead of informative. The site this blog belongs who believe in asking the obvious and less obvious questions.
Why am I here?
That's an excellent question! But while you think about it, also think about some of the issues we raise, and offer any new perspective you can.
