That is not the case for everyone out of college. Based on the pressure from people around you, you start to question what can you do in life.

Never wanted to have doubts in my education but ever since I have been dealing with the aftermath of graduating from college. I’m really starting to think is college for business or is it for our future? People all over the world get their kids prepared for college. It is one of those traditions for years where teenagers get to transform into being an adult. Parents get so excited when this event occurs to the point they expect it. So many parents love to brag about their perfect child being accepted to college. It'

Being a fellow kid in the new millennium made me witness unions between latino and black americans. You saw it everywhere from Jennifer Lopez and Ja rule to Wyclef and Shakira. It was like black americans were essential to be connected to latino americans because we shared so many similarities when it came to being on the outs of society or even being racially profiled by a police officer. Who would've thought that these two groups still have problems regardless of how similar they are? Nowadays, black men love to seek spanish women that look European. This affects the black woman as a whole because deep down we feel as if we can't compete with that. The media continues to make black women feel unattractive. Which causes low self esteem when their men date outside their race. It has gotten so bad to the point that black men praise and worship spanish women while disrespecting their own. Since this is happening, more tension between the two groups has formed within

In a relationship, you go through your four phases. You have your attraction phase, curiosity phase, couple phase, and commitment phase. Let’s keep it real, we all know that a lot of relationships nowadays only last around curiosity. We live in a sexual society that focuses on the physical. This has affected us so much that staying in a relationship is less important. There is nothing wrong with having a sexual lifestyle. I am worried that having sex is starting to become the only priority. Call me old fashion, but I want to share it with someone I care about. I want to share it with someone I can spend the rest of my life with. Not just with someone I am not serious about. I feel like nowadays people who are virgins get extreme peer pressure. When sex is everywhere, people think it's natural for everyone to have it. Even parents nowadays expect their children to have sex. It has become a big part of our culture where being promiscuous is dominant. So why are some

Let's be honest, who can deny R Kelly’s talent. As soon as his music comes on, I just forget all the cruelty he has done. Regardless of his alleged sex tape with a minor, we seem to give him a pass. I would not admit to it because I was a huge fan. How is it that he keeps getting away with this activity? With all these alleged victims and people of his entourage that are speaking against him, his time must be up. But, how long will it take for him to be in jail? Part of the reason is that we do not make R Kelly be held accountable for his actions. When you look around, every song he makes ends up in a cookout, house party or the bedroom. Since he is populated within the black community, he is pushed on to this high pedestal where we let him do whatever he wants. Which causes friction on how a black woman is supposed to be treated. It is unfair to some because it has led there experiences be unheard and their needs put to the very last. We already deal with a culture where d
