What’s The Real Issue

1 Comment / Commentary, I could be wrong but I don't think so, Social /

So there is nation, no worldwide attention and uproar because multitalented cookbook author and tv personality Paula Deen made some “racist” remarks and has now resulted in her termination from Food Network & outside sponsors. I for one have several points of view on the issue; some of which may not be liked, while others […]

About Linds McDonald

Hello, there! There is not much to know about me, really, except that I am an aspiring writer. I am currently working on two projects. First, and foremost, I have been working away on my novel, currently titled "As Clay". My great-grandparents came to America from Ireland in the 1900s, and my strong Irish heritage has always interested me. "As Clay" is a fantastical but Christian tale of Irish history, and I hope, the first in a trilogy. (Planned titles are: "As Clay", "Burning", and "Vessel".)

Isaiah 64:8 Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. 2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.
My less serious, but possibly more engrossing, project that I have been working on is, I am a little abashed to say, a fan fiction for Harry Potter. I know that it sounds completely juvenile, lol. But it is great fun, and a very productive learning experience. It's titled "Still I Rise" and is inspired by Maya Angelou's poem of the same name. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8387697/1/Still-I-Rise

** Trayvon was followed, and murdered because he was in the wrong place, while black. The following article was written back in 2013 as this case was unfolding. Live Video Streams that ‘were’ active no longer work. I’ll look to see if I can find the original footage on youtube. There are a few ‘updates’

The Zimmerman Trial Begins and The Watch For Justice Along With it

I got the joke. The Defense in the George Zimmerman Trial was basically trying to suggest that it’s impossible to have really NOT heard who George Zimmerman is – (specially in today’s Social Media Age) and yet this was how the jury was selected; Suggesting that there is something wrong with the selection process from

Jason Collins Announcement Forces Athletes To Talk About Sexual Orientation Instead Of Sports

1 Comment / Commentary, Social /

Asante Samuel came on the Loose Cannons (Now called Fox Sports Prime Time)  today … and gave perhaps the best quote I’ve heard in the past 48 hours – that we really shouldn’t be talking about who sports figures sleep with in the first place; we should keep the focus on the game; on the

Jason Collins Comes Out The Proverbial Closet His Aunt Already Knew

1 Comment / Commentary, Social /

The Gay conversation has become an ongoing aspect of our society hasn’t it? I realize that whenever it is suggested that the media has an agenda to push and promote homosexuality, that suggestion is often met with ferocious opposition. Anyone who dares suggest it, is called several names, and is vilified by that very same
