Black women go through the menopause two years earlier than white women Story by Tanyel Mustafa • Oct 9 A new report has found that Black women can experience the menopause differently to white women – with it even starting earlier. Decades of research has revealed that Black women reach menopause at 49, which is two years earlier than the national average age. The Study of Women’s Health Across the Nation (SWAN) also found that Black women spend more time in the menopause transition than white women. The study indicated that hot flushes and night sweats are reported more often by Black women. Dr. Nanette Santoro, professor and E. Stewart Taylor Chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, says there are lots of factors at play as to why this could be. She said: ‘My educated guess is that a lot of the differences have their basis in lifestyle, SES (socioeconomic status), and other stressors such as systemic racism and their long-term con...

  The American Plan For Black De-Population. Opinion by Staff • Oct 9 (ThyBlackMan.com) We are about to go hard into the facts, but first things first. Number one, I am about to tell you the truth. Number two, if you don’t agree, I don’t care and if you don’t believe it, you are fast asleep or living in denial. Number 3, for all you CointelPro coons out there, I have my bases covered and you have no idea how well. I am not the spook who sat by the door, I am the Django plus, that one in 1 million who destroys the mental foundation of the plantation trap. Just so you know. Now let’s get into exposing America’s plan for black de-population. Notice I did not speak Eugenics and say America ’s “population control plan”. Why not? Because That is a moot point. So many of you are already controlled by government handouts disguised as entitlements (food stamps, WIC etc.), the Democratic party of slave owners (and their lineage) and political CointelPro coons you helped to elect that this ar...

White students banned from Black History Month events at Westminster University Story by Louisa Clarence-Smith • Oct 7 A student union has been accused of “racial segregation” after banning white students from  Black History Month  events. The University of Westminster’s student union has told students that some events will be “reserved for black students to encourage a safe space for discussions and honest conversations”. In an email to students it did not specify which events would be restricted in the programme of talks, film screenings and dance nights. Dr Neil Thin, a social anthropology lecturer at Edinburgh University, said it was “tragic” to see a UK university “copying the racial segregationism that we have previously seen in South African and USA education systems”. He added: “It is bitterly ironic to see the rhetoric of ‘safe spaces’ abused to justify racial segregation. Nothing is more likely to make social spaces unsafe than this kind of wilful sowing o...

Rowling posted a photo of herself wearing a T-shirt calling the First Minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, a “destroyer of women’s rights” for supporting a bill that would help trans people Rowling has already been vocal in her objection to the Gender Recognition Reform Bill, which would allow transgender people to update their gender markers on government paperwork. Under current Scottish law, transgender people are required to submit a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria to a UK gender recognition panel to be able to legally change their gender.

It would still require applicants to swear their intent to permanently change their legal gender and go through a three-month waiting period. In March, the famously transphobic Rowling  took to Twitter multiple times ...
