Part 1: I was a? ... By: LLNWonderland. on 27 Feb 12, 04:37:44 Part 1: I was a? para-educator for the AmeriCorps program from 2009--2011, working in Title I schools (which are essentially schools whose students mostly come from households living in poverty) I worked with two different schools, one being made up of predominantly black students, the other was predominantly white. My job was to be a tutor and mentor to students whose test scores were low. I found that both schools followed the same pattern....
The Republican primary season has heated up with constant personal attacks, generalization and outlandish lies. They seem to continual have the desire to scapegoat and attack one target. The Black American community. Are these really mistakes or can we look at the candidates past to find the truth. The verbal shoots have been fired how will the Black Community respond?.
Do you believe the argument that the top 1% get paid for what they contribute to society. Their talent and gifts and contributions to society far out way their compensation. This whole 99% movement is just nothing but a veiled attempt at seizing power and replacing the ruling elite with another more sinister one. Some actually belief this to be true and BMSTV examines this theory and its flaws .
Yeah,? that's right ... By: nativemrv19722. on 08 Dec 11, 08:38:49 Yeah,? that's right. the 1% doesn't really seemed to be worried about the 99%. They should be worried if the 99% isn't doing well, they have billion are million dollor business.
After months of bipartisan debt-reduction talks, the Super Committee said Monday that it will be unable to agree on terms to save $1.2 trillion over 10 years Are we surprised? We were not and discussed the issue and the affects on American citizens.
People have asked why more Blacks and Latinos have not joined these protest of the 1 %. Other observers say that the movement is disorganize and has no real purpose. Is that really true and is this movement any less organized than the tea party? BMSTV host Maurice Carver along with panelists Lorie Jones & Bert Irons have a interesting discussion on this Autumn Spring.

Money is the ... By: amonshango. on 03 Nov 11, 19:58:27 Money is the distraction. Direct Access to the RESOURCES (EARTH/LAND) is the key. The INTENTIONS and concepts of this society since its inception have been and still are KILL, STEAL AND DESTROY.? Remove the barriers to access and break up the monopoly that was created through the Doctrine of DIscovery. This country and its tenets are TRAPS.
President Obama spoke at the Congressional Black Caucus and gave a speech to motivate the Black Community. Some individuals felt ready to go out and fight for another 4 years. Some were offended and felt a lack of respect for the community. What did you think?
A dream deferred makes the heart sick. Can we say we are living the dream of economic, political & social equality? BMSTV has an honest discussion about the dream that has become a nightmare for too many Americans.

Who really running this country and who should get the blame for the economic condition of America? Is it President Obama, the Democrats, or the Republicans. If you listen to Rep. Michele Bachman it's the President & his spending ways? Is she right or do Republicans have a majority of responsibility?
I agree 110 %! ... By: nativemrv19722. on 04 Sep 11, 22:58:31 I agree 110 %! Obama should defend the that voted him in office. Republicans are crazy ? as hell, and we can't put them in office again.!
BMSTV Host Maurice Carver discusses the national debt ,deficits, and what as citizens we can do. Is this the time to play bipartisan politics when the country is on the brink of defaulting? What do you think about it? Who is to blame, Congress, The President, or the American public. Maurice is joined in the studio with Bert Irons and Lorie Jones
I can agree with ... By: indigojack99. on 23 Sep 11, 23:27:14 I can agree with you on that. It seems foolish to engage in two wars and at the same time cut taxes, while not cutting spending in other areas. Literally, the only way Bush could have paid was to borrow. It just does not make? sense from any perspective (Political, economic, or even historic: ie, Korean conflict, World War 2, ect.).
Great topic. It's a ... By: Raywe14. on 03 Jul 11, 23:48:53 Great topic. It's a little too late for the republicans to be screaming foul now. After all they were the ones who agree to the 2 wars. If They did not get us into these two wars I doubt we would have such large debt. Just like any consumer, if you don't have the money to purchase goods then you shouldn't put it on your credit card! ie: you can't? afford then you don't get it. Had They had that mentality during the Bush 2 administration then we wouldn't be in this financial fiasco. NO $ NO WAR!
I ? heard one ... By: nativemrv19722. on 01 Jul 11, 00:03:19 I ? heard one time on one this PBS station, that if the USA would give up some up some there Gold. All the US nation Debt would be paid.! But there not going to do that.
