So I have been expecting this. For days now I have thought that without the connection to the suffering and direct insight and sensitivity about the plight of those who have been and are still “the hunted” in America, a jury might just might find some doubt and free George Zimmerman. The truth is, a […]
Like so many people across the country, I have followed the murder trial of George Zimmerman very closely. As we enter what is probably the last week of the trial, I am sure that everyone is anxious about the outcome. For the past sixteen months, I have proudly supported the courageous parents of Trayvon Martin […]
I don’t have control over all the editorial content that gets published on GlobalGrind.com. I trust my editorial staff to write uplifting and inspiring stories about celebrities, however there are some times when a story doesn’t always have a positive ending. The staff often writes stories and blogs about issues and people they care about, […]
Dear Bill, It’s me! Your friend. Your old punching bag. Russell. Gotta tell you, your comments a few weeks back about a public letter to the President I organized, encouraging him to end the “War on Drugs” were way off base. They were so off base that your guest that night who you thought was […]
Never again may we witness an MC like Jay-Z. His lyrical skills are unmatched by the rookies and the vets. His ability to make a club bounce is as powerful as ever. His authentic portrayal of his journey from Marcy to Madison Square or from Bed-Stuy to Barclays has been the inspiration for so many […]

If you want to have a fun, productive day, it’s important to begin with morning meditation. A lot of people ask me how to meditate, expecting it to be difficult, but it’s actually very simple. First, find a comfortable seat and set your alarm for 20 minutes. It’s very important that you are sitting comfortably. […]
Fear is the greatest weapon used against the defenseless. It is one that makes a group of people believe in interests that are contrary to their very own preservation. It throws people off balance. It is a tactic that confuses the blurred minds of those who are in struggle. And right now, it is the […]
I would like to share with you a letter I am sending to UniverSoul Circus asking them to cancel their contract with Nosey, a painful to watch elephant act that my friends at PETA alerted me to. I recognize that some of my comments may be regarded as controversial. So be it. I am aware […]
I was one of the early supporters of Michael Bloomberg when he first campaigned to be Mayor of New York City back in 2002. My public support of Bloomberg was not defined or constrained by the rigidity of partisan politics. Those first positive impressions that I had of this uniquely experienced candidate for that high […]
