He recently sat down with Bishop T.D. Jakes to talk about the importance of mental health and why it is still so taboo amongst people of color. Speaking on the book Bishop T.D. said “I’ve never read a book where the author was so transparent”, Charlamagne then spoke about how he has become more vulnerable, “I think going to therapy the past couple years has made me vulnerable, or maybe it’s not even therapy, maybe its the fact of turning 40 this year, being the father of 3 young girls, being married, life has made me more vulnerable” . Later, the discussion turns to social media and the way people are suffering because of the pressure to be hot on the internet. Hopefully, something said here serves purpose in your life.

Despite all of the racial tension happening in America these days — history is still being made, slowly but surely. For the first time in Florida’s modern history, a White person will be executed for killing a Black person. The Miami Herald reports that 53-year-old Mark James Asay is scheduled to die by lethal injection in Florida State Prison on Thursday night for the racially motivated killing of Robert Lee Booker, who was Black, and Robert “Renee” McDowell, who was Hispanic, in Jacksonville 30 years ago. In the 41 years since Florida reinstated the death penalty, 18 Black men have been executed for killing white victims. Adora Obi Nweze, president of the Florida NAACP, told reporters, “It does make the case [against the death penalty] even stronger that there’s this disparity gap that exists between Black and White — who gets the death penalty and who gets exonerated.” Mark James, a former White Supremacist, will also be the first person put to death with a drug called “etomidate”, leading some critics to accuse the state of using him as a guinea pig. Jen Moreno, a lethal injection expert at the University of California, told reporters, “There are outstanding questions about whether it’s going to do what it needs to do during an execution. The state hasn’t provided any information about why it has selected this drug.” The execution of Mark James Asay is scheduled for 6:00 tonight at the Florida State Prison @CBS12 pic.twitter.com/iYZNvimSFO — Maxine Bentzel (@MaxineBentzel) August 24, 2017 Asay, a prison gang member who used to sport a Swastika tattoo, was sentenced in 1988 for the murders of Booker and McDowell, after he claims he found them dressed in women’s clothes after agreeing to pay for sex. Witnesses added that Asay was searching for prostitutes when he found McDowell and shot him six times. However, Asay said he did not intend to kill McDowell, whom he described as a friend, and that he’d committed the murder in a drunken “meltdown.” Mark James Asay is set to die on Thursday night by lethal injection.

The woman who accused current NFL player and former Florida State University standout Jameis Winston of rape has settled with the university for $950,000 on Monday. Erica Kinsman says the school’s mishandling of the investigation was the cause of her drawing up legal action, and is one of the largest payouts of its sort ever made. […]
Jameis Winston memes have reared their funny head once again and they’re coming at the time when the star Florida State quarterback is at his lowest point. Pasadena’s Rose Bowl was the site where Winston and his rolling squad were dealt the first loss of his career at the hands of the Oregon Ducks. Continue
Jameis Winston has been suspended by Florida State University. For being a total moron, basically. The Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback will sit out the first half of this Saturday’s game against Clemson after he stood on a table in the student union and shouted: “F-ck her right in the pus-y!” The obscenity, which has grown into a viral trend in which idiots people heckle reporters with it during a live shot, was heard by a number of students, many of whom brought it to the administration’s attention via Twitter. “You can’t make certain statements that are derogatory or inflammatory to any person, race or gender. You have to understand that. You have to be very intelligent about what you say, [because] it matters,” said Head Coach Jimbo Fisher in announcing Winston’s punishment. Winston was accused in the past of raping a student, though no charges were filed against the star. He was also convicted of stealing crab legs earlier this year and, in 2013, he had the cops called on him for allegedly stealing soda from a Burger King. Sadly, he should fit right in to the NFL, where Adrian Peterson has been charged with child abuse and Ray Rice knocked his fiancee out cold inside an elevator. In a press conference this afternoon, Winston issued an apology to his coaches, school and teammates and called his actions “selfish, adding: “That’s not how you do things around here.” 14 Scandalous Sports Stories 1.
