My Truth: What do you have to say about…?

By: Cheryl Smith

This week has been a week when everyone has had an opinion, and they haven’t had any problem sharing.

Fanbase, Facebook, Instagram, et al, are ablaze with commentaries, videos, and mini-dissertations about the Super Bowl HalfTime Show featuring Kendrick (some are calling him ‘King’) Lamar.

I’m going to reserve my commentaries for the future, because like the late Jim Washington used to say, “there’s so much to talk about and so little space.”

Yes, there are so many issues to discuss.

Climate control, government oversight or lack thereof, homelessness, inflation, poverty, crime, and more. 

Upcoming elections, failing school systems, redlining, gentrification, infant mortality, maternal morbidity, and drug abuse; are just a few of the societal ills eroding our quality of life.

Racism, yes racism.  And don’t be a hypocrite crying about “reverse racism” when you haven’t acknowledged RACISM!

I do believe we are all in need of some love, fun, and entertainment. So everyone who can, please enjoy yourselves and remember that after the fun is over we have work to do.

Ask yourself,” What’s in your pocket?”

America we have work to do.

You think?
