Rep. Jasmine Crockett: Is she the next Democratic power player?

5 days ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

If you’ve been following Congress over the past few months, there’s no way you missed Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Even if you weren’t paying attention, she caught the eye of America’s politics watchers as a vocal agitator against not only Donald Trump’s policies, but his whole administration and legislative loyalists.
HBCUs: Trump’s Black college initiative is similar to Obama’s

1 week ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

If you were wondering when Donald Trump would get around to saying something about HBCUs, your wait is over. He recently released an executive order that, in his mind, bolsters Black colleges (since he thinks he can be Pope, does this order make him think he’s Booker T. Washington?).
Karmelo Anthony: Dispelling the misinformation

2 weeks ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

The controversy surrounding Karmelo Anthony and his family is increasing in the weeks following the allegations that the 17-year-old high schooler stabbed Austin Metcalf, also 17, to death at a track meet. But there is a lot of misinformation surrounding the story, much of it posted to social media by far-right trolls, or white supremacists out to convict Anthony without a trial and vilify his family.
Why Trump tariffs could mean especially rough waters for Black and Brown communities

3 weeks ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

It would be a good guess that if you’re not confused by all the news on Donald Trump’s tariff policies, you’re at least frustrated. Although he claims that America is profiting from imposing taxes on imports, there is no evidence of that, and the stock market is the most volatile it’s been in years, with the retirement accounts of millions at stake. But there’s also a cost where the rubber hits the road, namely Main Street, U.S.A. – or translated to Urban America, MLK Boulevard.
Could former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms crack the smoked glass ceiling?

1 month ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

It’s not a closely guarded secret that Keisha Lance Bottoms is floating toward announcing a run for governor of Georgia. Local station WXIA said the former Atlanta mayor pretty much confirmed her intention to seek the office in the 2026 race, and all that’s left is a formal announcement. But her race would also mark the third consecutive time a Black woman has gone up against a powerful Republican candidate.
Fair housing advocates claim a victory, for now, against HUD and DOGE

1 month ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

Amid the turmoil since the Trump administration’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, began slashing funding and firing workers across the federal structure, housing has not received much media attention. In fact the most significant thing that has happened with the Department of Housing and Urban Development has been the reported plans to cut its staff by half.
A cop almost got a woman deported — but snitching was against the rules

1 month ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

As it turns out, the upending of immigration policy isn’t just a Washington thing. It extends to pretty much everywhere in this country we humans call home. In one case on Detroit’s Southwest side, it even resulted in a cop snitching on a woman who was an immigrant, violating police policy. Outlier Media reports that the woman walked into the Detroit Police’s Fourth Precinct station to report a crime, and while there she volunteered information about her immigration status.
Democratic Party leaders: Is Schumer backlash the party's Titanic?

1 month ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

It’s been quite a fortnight for Sen. Chuck Schumer. He was riding high as the leader of the Democratic opposition to the MAGA takeover of the U.S. government … until one choice led to him being reviled by colleagues and his party. On March 13, the minority leader of the U.S. Senate announced he’d vote to advance the Republican funding bill just 24 hours after he said he wouldn’t.
Trump administration upends Haitian lives with policy shift

2 months ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

Haitian immigrants are among the latest major targets of the Trump administration’s efforts to make life as hard as possible for people who’ve migrated to American shores. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has reneged on the government’s pledge for Haitians in the country to live here under Temporary Protected Status, which meant that they would be free from the threat of deportation until February 2026. The government now says they can stay only until August under that designation.
How activists are fighting Trump’s ‘final mission’ assault on education

2 months ago | url-media.com | Madison Gray

No surprises here. It was all there in Project 2025, the right-wing roadmap to governing that Donald Trump denied would have a role in his presidential administration: Education and people of color are the scapegoats for just about everything the president and his Republican Party think is wrong with America. We’ve already talked about the danger the administration poses to education funding writ large.
