Good Old Fashioned Racism

Tom & Jerry cartoons are now available on Amazon Prime and iTunes and they come with a disclaimer because these were made in the 1940's and back then Black people were pretty much human speed bumps. “Tom and Jerry shorts may depict some ethnic and racial prejudices that were once commonplace in American society. Such depictions were wrong then and are wrong today.”

They had to do this one other time when these came out on DVD and had Whoopi Goldberg do the disclaimer because she is Black and if it is cool with her it should be cool with everyone else. Particularly since she laughed when her then boyfriend Ted Danson did Black-face.

I Write Stories

Kiyoshi and I have recently released another series of books. Actually its two stories in one. So far I have released four stories and it would be awesome if you all would share this link and/or buy and read my stuff. Let me know what you think. That would be groovy. They are available on Smashwords as well as Amazon. All links are below. 

Veterans Day/Kilo Sierra Echo


Two great books in one: VETERANS DAY and KILO SIERRA ECHO Veterans Day: Kendra Hecksford was born into a family of Marines. When selected to “the program” she assumed that she would continue her family's tradition. Little did she know that she would be a part of something that would change the name of the arms race forever. Human weapons created to exhibit human potential at its finest.
