Secondly, I would like to talk about the Mexicools. Mexicools were a Hispanic tag-team that were surely stereotypical. The Mexicools were a tag-team that just by their entrance to the ring can be described as stereotypical & as racist as can be. They would drive to the rings on lawn mowers wearing overalls and playing up the "lazy worker ***back" stereotypical racist slur given to Mexican people. This my be Trump's favorite tag-team, however as for me I see these racist "characters" as dead wrong. I see this form of entertainment as wrong and it creates yet another dark cloud of racial divided that we do not need. Again as someone who did not understand this country's history as well as I do now; I see the mistake that was made. I also see the line that was crossed in making this a form of entertainment. As stated early, I do not blame anyone for providing for their family. However, those that create such entertainment should know the difference between stereotypes, having controversy, or making fun of some of our community members.

A simple summary is basically this: (1) Wait until you or parents file Income Tax (2) Go to this website- https://fafsa.ed.gov/ (3) Create a account (4) Fill out all of the informat...

Personal Finance for Black Males

I don't follow Kanye West on any social media outlet. I don't listen to any of Kanye West music, and when he become "Kanye West Kardishian", I really stopped listening to him. However, every since he was approaching his album release, he has been tweeting like a mad man. He has been trending non-stop on Twitter, and a lot of his tweets have been outrageous. However, one caught my attention and the attention of countless others. He stated in one of his tweets that he is "53 Million Dollars" in personal debt. Now, I think that Kanye is either a good actor or mentally insane. But, either way, if he owes 53 million dollars to anybody then this is beyond shameful. I heard that Kanye is begging Facebook's owner (Mark Zuckerberg) for money and is asking for people to pray for him. Now, I have zero sympathy for Kanye West. But, I do feel that he is not the same Kanye West that everyone respected. He is not the same Jesus Walks, Kanye. But, anyway this mad...
