The Fact-Based Intervention for Black America
Evidence-based articles, outcome-based rankings, a verified history game, daily facts, and a free adult reading program — one record, every claim sourced. Where the evidence is settled we say so plainly; where serious researchers disagree we label it contested and show the disagreement.
Ranking Every U.S. President by What They Actually Did for Black Americans
Not by rhetoric or party — by record. Every president scored on the concrete actions that helped or harmed Black Americans, with the receipts.
- All 45 presidents scored on documented policy, from Washington to the present day.
- A multi-era framework — emancipation, Reconstruction, the New Deal, the civil-rights years, and the modern era, each weighed in its own context.
- Actions and receipts, never speeches or party label — the first ranking of its kind.

No fabricated data — ever.
Every statistic, ranking input, fact, and trivia answer comes from a real, citable source — never an invented number. Where the evidence is not yet attached we say so plainly rather than guess. Rankings score leaders only on outcomes the office actually controls; contested causal claims live in separate, clearly-labeled analysis, never as hidden scoring weights. That honesty is the whole product.
