TriceEdney–Since the World Bank is exempt from US laws and courts, women in the World Bank can be sexually harassed and assaulted without any legal recourse. Bank report (The Stern Report) attributed sexual harassment in the World Bank to “cultures with different standards for male-female relationships.” Women who challenge the status quo risk getting fired and […]

TriceEdneyWireService—Each year, most of us make a list of things we plan to do in the coming year.  Most of us really intend to do what we plan, but, unfortunately, most quit within a few weeks.  Let’s make this New Year different. My suggestion is doable.  Please read Howard Zinn’s book, A People’s History of […]

TriceEdney — One of my favorite Christmas past-times is looking through my television content guide, finding a scheduled airing of A Christmas Carol and tuning in to watch.  I don’t know how many iterations of this movie classic have been made, but I’ve viewed multiple versions made from the 1930’s to the recent past.  It […]

For several months, we have mostly had dreadful events about which to write.  The worst have been about #45’s dangerous, embarrassing and unworthy antics.  Well, […]

TriceEdney — I’ve always drawn a measure of comfort from watching and listening to “Grandmother” type clocks. There’s something soothing about the consistent tic-tic-tic of the clock as time moves on. In my abstract thinking, I find significance in the movement of the pendulum and the intersection of time, physical laws of nature, and human […]

Rare is the case when conservatives and liberals, from Dr. Ben Carson to Reverend Jesse Jackson, and from Breitbart News to The Afro American Newspapers, join voices with leaders of over 500 faith-based organizations to bring to light institutionalized racial discrimination in the U.S. Even rarer is the case when U.S. lawmakers from both Chambers […]

TriceEdney —  Anyone old enough to remember “The Three Stooges” may also remember one of their most famous skits, “Niagara Falls.”  In this bit, each time Moe heard the words ‘Niagara Falls’ he approached Curly saying, “Slowly I turned, step-by-step, inch-by-inch.” He then viciously assaulted Curly.  If you appreciate physical comedy, it’s a funny, dated […]

Washington, DC –– #45 hates women!  It probably was not necessary for me to say that, but if you didn’t already know it, we now know that #45 hates women—and he’s off the chart in his hatred of women of color.  Never mind that Black women have been acknowledged as the best educated in our […]
