• Why exactly would Beyonce need any of Jay-Z's money? [NB] • Voter suppression tactics in North Carolina? [TS] • I don't really keep up with the televangelist set, but apparently Juanita Bynum and her abusive ex-husband are just getting more and more ridiculous. [C&D] • "Northwestern University withdrew its offer to give the Reverend Jeremiah Wright an honorary degree at this year's commencement because of the controversy over past sermons by the former pastor to Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. … Wright's invitation wasn't rescinded because of his views. Rather, Northwestern President Henry Bienen didn't want to compromise the celebration." [NPR] |

Televangelist/domestic abuse victim Juanita Bynum was supposed to talk about her public beating by her husband, Bishop Thomas Weeks, but really she basically says she will never stop loving him. Aren't relationships grand? |

I guess this is what happens when you don't keep up with the Pentecostal evangelist/feminist movement. Apparently, the fiery minister, who is well-known for encouraging women to leave dead-end relationships, didn't take her own advice. She was publicly beaten by her estranged husband, Bishop Thomas Weeks, in the parking lot of a hotel where they had just eaten dinner. He surrendered to Atlanta cops today. So I'm guessing the church show this Sunday will be a rerun? |
