🚨 **NEW VIDEO ALERT**

**Tasha K, FBA Is Not the KKK — You’re Confusing Personal Identities With Black History**

Tasha K has every right to defend her African husband from disrespect. But comparing the principles of FBA to the KKK crosses a historical line that deserves a response.

This conversation is bigger than social media personalities. **FBA is about recognizing the distinct lineage, history, struggle, culture, and interests of Black Americans descended from America's Freedmen and Freedwomen.**

Why can Italians, Irish, Jewish, Asian, African, and Caribbean communities openly preserve their heritage and ethnic bonds, but when Black Americans recognize ours, we're accused of promoting division?

In this new video, I break down the difference between **extremists and an entire lineage**, personal identity and historical identity, and ethnic solidarity and racial supremacy.

You can condemn disrespect toward Africans while still standing proudly on Freedmen history.

**Our lineage is not hatred. Our history is not a cult. And remembering our ancestors is not the KKK.**

New York City's DSA chapter just confirmed what many Black voters already suspected. The organization's own internal data shows 60% of its active members are white — nearly double the city's white population, and higher than the national Democratic Party. The report landed weeks after DSA-backed candidates ousted Black and Latino incumbents, including Congressman Adriano Espaillat — a man who'd endorsed Mamdani, only to have Mamdani back his primary challenger instead.
Asked point-blank if DSA is "a white movement," Mamdani dodged — claiming DSA was an "engine" behind Black leadership, as if Black political power needed a majority-white organization to create it.
Malcolm X warned us about this: the fox smiles while it closes in. The question isn't whether the imbalance exists. It's whether this is solidarity — or something else wearing its language. Read: blackwestchester.com/city-state-magazine-confirms-…

🚨 THIS SUNDAY ON BLACK WESTCHESTER’S SUNDAY RUNDOWN 🚨

A public safety leader. A Bronx grand jury indictment. **Fourteen felony counts.** And a case that is raising serious questions about **leadership, accountability, public trust, and the reputation of Black governance and Black law enforcement.**

This Sunday, we’re going **INSIDE THE JENNIFER LACKARD INDICTMENT.**

We’ll examine the charges, the alleged text messages, the timeline, and the key facts surrounding the case. But this conversation goes far beyond one individual.

**How did we get here?**

What does this case mean for the leadership of Mount Vernon? What does it mean for a majority-Black city and its police department? And what happens when the decisions of those entrusted with public safety threaten the public’s confidence in government?

We’re asking the questions that need to be asked.

🔥 “Inside the Jennifer Lackard Indictment: The Facts, the Charges, and the Questions”

📅 **THIS SUNDAY**
⏰ **6:00 PM**

The Rise of Black Republicans: Traitors or Trailblazers?
For decades, Black America has overwhelmingly supported one political party. But as more Black Republicans run for governor, Congress, and statewide office, a new question is emerging:
What does this mean for Black America?
From Byron Donalds and John James to Winsome Earle-Sears, this in-depth Black Westchester Magazine feature examines the growing visibility of Black Republicans, the criticism they face, and what their rise means for the Republican Party, the Democratic Party, and the future of Black political power.
This is not an endorsement of Republicans or Democrats.
It is a conversation about political independence, accountability, and whether every political party should have to earn Black America's vote instead of assuming it.
Whether you agree or disagree, this is a discussion our community needs to have.

Dr. Fauci, the Fifth Amendment, and the Questions America Still Deserves Answered

Dr. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment before Congress. He had every constitutional right to do so. But after years of pandemic mandates, censorship debates, public pressure, and unprecedented government actions, Americans also have the right to ask questions.

This editorial examines:
• Dr. Fauci's congressional hearing
• The debate surrounding his presidential pardon
• Public trust and government accountability
• The impact of vaccine mandates
• Why Kyrie Irving became the most recognizable symbol of the mandate era
• Why transparency matters, regardless of politics

Whether you supported every COVID policy or questioned them, one thing should unite us all: Accountability builds trust.

📖 Read the full editorial now at: blackwestchester.com/dr-fauci-the-fifth-amendment-…

Let us know your thoughts in the comments. Do public officials owe Americans more answers about the decisions made during the pandemic?

Let’s start with something we can all agree on. Every New Yorker wants lower grocery prices.

Food costs have climbed dramatically over the past several years, squeezing working families, seniors on fixed incomes, and many Black households already struggling with the rising cost of living. Any proposal that promises to make groceries more affordable deserves serious consideration.

That is why Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s plan to open city-owned grocery stores selling food 30 percent below retail prices has captured so much attention. On its face, it sounds like an innovative solution to a real problem.

But public policy should be judged not only by its intentions, but by whether the economics actually work.

Good intentions alone do not pay wholesalers. They do not cover payroll, refrigeration, transportation, utilities, insurance, inventory losses, or the countless operating costs of running a grocery business.

The question isn’t whether New Yorkers deserve lower grocery prices—they do.

The question is whether a city can sustainably sell groceries 30 percent below market prices without creating an ongoing financial burden for taxpayers or putting neighborhood grocery stores at a competitive disadvantage. check out full article; blackwestchester.com/a-city-owned-grocery-store-so…

When a Black-owned publication sits down with the Mayor of New York City, Black America deserves more than campaign talking points—we deserve accountability. In his interview with Mayor Zohran Mamdani, journalist Charles M. Blow asked important questions, but too many of the answers stopped at broad promises about affordability, child care, housing, and free buses. Those are issues every politician talks about. The question that remained unanswered was simple: What is the agenda for Black America? Where is the plan to increase Black homeownership, grow Black-owned businesses, build generational wealth, and create measurable economic progress? Black Americans don't need more slogans or universal promises. We need leaders—and Black media—willing to demand specific answers and measurable outcomes. Because if we don't ask those questions, who will?

The Democratic Party is entering the 2026 midterm elections facing a crisis few expected. Reports indicate the Democratic National Committee is about $2 million in debt, has reportedly used its headquarters as collateral for a $15 million line of credit, and is facing criticism over fundraising, leadership, and internal turmoil. Meanwhile, Republicans enter the election cycle with a massive financial advantage, including an RNC war chest of roughly $130 million and a Trump-aligned super PAC reportedly holding $400 million.
But this story is about more than money. It's about what this means for Black Americans, who have overwhelmingly supported Democratic candidates for decades. If Black voters are expected to once again deliver nearly 90 percent of their vote in 2026 and 2028, it's fair to ask: What is the long-term agenda for Black America? As the next election cycle begins, many Black voters may be looking beyond party loyalty and demanding accountability, measurable results, and a real plan for their communities.
