As I say my morning prayers, I thank Allah, the one true God, for sending a veritable angel on my path. I'm talking about Stefano Saint-Mathieu, of course. The young Haitian man I met at the university campus where I work as a cleaner. We ride the bus together and have for months but I never even noticed him until that fateful day. Now we're friends...and mo...
What's up, folks? My name is Jean-Bernard Guillot but my friends call me J.B. I'm a young Black man of Haitian descent living in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. I study civil engineering at Carleton University. It's where I met criminology student and fellow Afro-centric social activist Mariam Hanaffi of Somalia, the young Muslim woman who changed my life. We m...
Sometimes, I wonder why humanity ever invented religion, except perhaps as a means of further dividing the species. I mean, besides racial differences and disputes over territory, what other factor has contributed to more death and bloodshed across human history? I've noticed that in those movies and television shows about the future, such as Star Trek, they...
Whatever you do, don't call me Manny. I absolutely hate it. What kind of name is that for a chick anyways? If you know what's good for you, you'll address me by my proper name Manal Muhammad. When I said that, the pudgy teacher's assistant glared at me balefully, a look of simmering anger filling his reddened face. His blue eyes were like ice cubes. I could...
My name is Mary Virginia Rosenthal. I live in the town of Ottawa, Province of Ontario, in Canada's Capital region. I'm five-foot-eleven, kind of chubby but still pretty, with reddish brown hair, light bronze skin and pale brown eyes. My family is a veritable blend of ethnicities. My grandfather Hansel Rosenthal was a Jew from the Heidelberg region of Germany...
In my day, vampires sucked blood, not cock! That's what I thought to myself as I drained a tall, pale gothic guy and dropped his bloodless corpse in a dumpster before walking off into the night. I have a die-hard hatred for Twilight fans, male and female alike. As an authentic member of the Undead Club, they seriously piss me off with their antics. Vampires...
I met Ayaan Aden, the six-foot-tall, curvaceous and downright majestic Somali MILF who changed my life completely by chance at Canada's Capital University. I was sitting at the campus library one Saturday morning, typing up a paper on a computer on the quiet floor, and that's when I noticed her walking by, pushing a cleaning tray. Now, mind you, while typing...
What's up, people? My name is Amelia Salomon, and I'm a French Canadian Muslim woman living in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. Five-foot-eight, chubby and big-bottomed, with alabaster skin, reddish brown hair and light brown eyes, that's me. I'm a graduate of the computer science programme at La Cite Collegiale, and hope to become a tech entrepreneur someday....
After a second or two of eerie silence, all hell broke loose. Jason had turned his gun to the left and continued to fire. Steve suddenly brought two guns into play, exchanging shots with several men standing directly in front of him. Charlie was methodically firing at the men stationed to his right. Ted finally tried to pull his handgun from his waistband,...
Combatting sexism and patriarchy in the African-American community, that's every sister's concern. My name is Christine Soleil and I'm a young Black woman of Haitian descent living in the City of Hartford, Connecticut. My parents Jean-Pierre and Lucinda Soleil moved to Connecticut from their hometown of Cap-Haitien in North Haiti when I was real young. As fa...
