Obama: 'Trayvon Martin Could've Been Me'
"There are very few African-American men in this country who haven't had the experience of being followed in a department store. That includes me." "...walking across the street and hearing the locks click on cars. That happens to me - at least before I was a senator." "...getting on an elevator and a woman clutching her purse, nervously and holding her breathe until she had a chance to get off. That happens often. And I don't want to exaggerate this but those sets of experiences inform how the African-American community interprets what happened one night in Florida. It is in escapable for people to bring those experiences to bare."
- President Barack Obama

DRAMA / COMFLAMA- The Outing Of Kerry Rhodes
Up until a few days ago I had no idea who Kerry Rhodes was... Until members of our NubianNewYorkers Yahoo Group began talking about an ongoing controversy about him. Kerry Rhodes (born August 2, 1982)
is an American football safety who is currently a free agent of the National Football League. He was drafted by the New York Jets in the fourth round of the 2005 NFL Draft. He played college football at Louisville.

Kerry majored in Communications and minored in Theater Arts at the University of Louisville in Kentucky. Rhodes maintains his own Twitter page as well as a channel on Locker Blogger where he interacts with fans. Videos: Kerry played the role of the Lead Police Officer in Lady Gaga's #1 video "Paparazzi" as well as playing the lead male role in K. Michelle's video for her debut single Fallin'.
