What constitutes "good hair"? Isn’t it subjective? Or at least it should be.

My natural un-straightened hair is good hair to me. I’ve got nothing against anyone who straightens their hair or spends hundreds of pounds on weaves. People do it for all different reasons and it’s their choice. What I don’t like is when people look down on natural hair like it’s a curse or something. What’s up with that?

It’s almost the end of January and I’ve just now decided to think about what I’d like to see happen in 2010. These aren’t resolutions because resolutions suck unless you can keep to them. These are just daydreams that I have no control over and I won’t check myself into a padded cell on 31st December 2010 if they don’t happen.

Then end of all reality TV shows

Come on people this is long overdue. Wouldn’t you like to see some quality TV programming in 2010? I don’t watch them but I’m really fed up of hearing about them.

In times of recession it’s easy to believe that there are people out there willing to give you a leg up.  If you’ve lost your job through redundancy you may be feeling a little dejected. You might be thinking that it’s time you set up on your own, maybe work from home.

Campaigners have welcomed a new online petition calling on the Government to address the discriminatory way the DNA database is currently used within the Crime and Security Bill.

Race equality experts warn that the database now poses one of the most serious threats to race relations to date. They say that there is a danger that it will shatter the communities trust in crime prevention agencies if the Government does not put this right and commit to deleting the records of every single person from the DNA database.

Rev Al SharptonCivil Rights Activist Rev Al Sharpton arrived in London this week for a series of events including a Black political rally as part of Operation Black Vote’s General Election campaign.


Pennsylvania AFL-CIO President Bill George today called for more energy and activism by all in 2010 to come closer to fulfilling Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s vision of economic and social justice for all.

"Dr. King's vision included not only civil rights but also economic and social justice for all Americans – a vision that is far from fulfilled. We can step closer to reaching that goal by making jobs the top priority for Pennsylvania this year," Pennsylvania AFL-CIO President Bill George declared.  "We can make real progress in climbing out of this recession in 2010 if we stand together under the banner of Jobs Now!"
