The gospel of white supremacy...

'African Americans watched two hours more television per day than the national average of 5 hours and 11 minutes according to a report recently released by Nielsen, the TV ratings agency.'
--New York Times, April 17, 2011

Ever since I can remember, there's been a statistic stating that Black people watch more TV than any other ethnic group.

Now, what's being implied here is the reason Black americans are at the bottom rung of society, is because we don't have the mental capacity for 'higher learning' that's inherent in most other people and we're shiftless sloths who are notoriously hedonistic. 

In layman terms, the white elite are saying all we want out of life is good sex, comfortable shoes and a warm place to go the bathroom.  

Now, the average Black person who sees this will internalize this information and walk around consciously or subconsciously thinking it's true; in turn, this will reinforce the reason(s) why they should hate themselves for being Black.

And usually this is where the story ends. But, if you're a Black person with a curious mind, you'll do a little research to check the veracity of these findings. Now, being that I've done some writing in the past about the Nielsen TV agency, I know they quantify ratings information from 'Nielsen TV boxes' they give to families so their viewing habits can be monitored. And my past research also showed me two other things; one, the Nielsen TV ratings agency has been caught more than once fabricating and basically telling bald-faced lies about ratings numbers; and two, they don't give out Nielsen TV ratings boxes to Black families.  

Think a minute...have you ever known of a Black family who owned a Nielsen TV ratings box?

I didn't think so. 

And even if one Black family has one of these boxes, you'd be hard pressed to find several that do; and if you're going to put out these kind of propaganda pieces, at least have a correct amount of people in the case study to substantiate your findings. 

But based on this outrageously false information, the New York Times, one of the most respected periodicals in the world, is telling Black people that we're dumb 'cause we watch more TV. 

And we always take whitey's word as the the 'gospel truth.'

Another case in point is whitey's obsession with the world's 'overpopulation' problem. 

The inbreds who call themselves elites say in a hundred years or in several decades, there won't be enough resources to feed the swelling masses of humans now inhabiting the earth. What this does is keep people in a suspended state of 'poverty-mindedness'; meaning, they've got the populous thinking there's only a finite amount of resources for each man, woman and child, so we shouldn't want or ask for too much, and by no means, should we want the abundant resources the elites enjoy. 

But, upon doing a little research, you'll find that the 7 billion people populating the earth could fit comfortably in the continental united states; because the majority of the land masses on this planet are mainly uninhabited as you can see when you fly over them.

When you do a bit more research you'll find when these pale-skinned degenerates talk about 'over-population', what they're really talking about is how the world's populated with too many 'non-white' people. They understand how they're the world's real minority; and now since white birth rates are falling below replacement levels, they're really scrambling to 'depopulate' countries and continents primarily inhabited by our people. So you and I are going to see more 'super-viruses' these inbreds have cooked up in labs, seemingly coming out of nowhere to infect and essentially kill off Black people globally at faster rates (Ebola virus).

Now, recently, the movie 'No Good Deed' was touted as being the number one movie in america; for the dates of September 12, 13th and 14th respectively, to the displeasure of myself and others; and I wrote a post called 'No good negroes' addressing my problems with the movie's self-destructive message before it came out.

Now, several bloggers have written about their being perplexed as to why the Black Diaspora would go out and support this kind of movie when at it's core, it speaks about Black men and women killing each other and sublimely suggests how the Black nuclear family is a thing of the past. But this incident reminds me of another which kind of puts this whole debacle in perspective...for me at least. 

Spike Lee, who can't get enough accolades for his film accomplishments in my opinion, put out a brilliant movie called 'Inside Man' in 2006. While on a press junket promoting the film, he stated emphatically that Black people should check their tickets. Because he found out how individual movie theaters were giving patrons purchasing tickets for Inside Man, tickets to other films within the theater. So essentially, people paying for Inside Man tickets might get a ticket for the auditorium showing 'Weekend at Bernie's 12' or something. That's how much whitey was invested in making sure Spike's film didn't meet the numbers it needed to stay in theaters.

Now, fast forward to 'No Good Deed' in 2014 being the number one movie in america. In the post I wrote about this flick originally, I found out how the Screen Gems film studio who made this piece of crap movie, had originally slated this to be released on January 14th of this year, for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday; yep, Mr. Charley was that interested in Black folks seeing this flick. But they pushed the date back knowing they'd be up against Universal's movie 'Ride Along' starring Ice Cube and Kevin Hart. Guess they figure Black people can't mentally handle having two choices for films catering to their demographic. But here's my point, might what happened with Spike's 'Inside Man' be a reflection of 'No Good Deed's' making it to number one? Might people purchasing tickets for other films been given a ticket for the craptastic 'No Good Deed'?

I've done some research on the box office tally numbers for 'No Good Deed', and all sources say, this film sold the most tickets, but if these 'ticket swaps' happened who'd be the wiser? They definitely wouldn't reflect anywhere in the mainstream media. But we, the Black Diaspora, would still be duped into believing, the majority of us went out to see this flick. 

Now, before you say, we'll that's not likely to happen, let me say, firstly, it did happen to Spike; and secondly, why wouldn't whitey do this to serve his agenda of reinforcing and triggering our conditioned self-hatred with this flick?

And I'll also say, it pissed me off when I saw some bloggers talking about Black people like we're the dumbest people on the planet behind this film coming in at number one. There's a lot of people who claim to be pro-Black bloggers, but when any thing goes awry where Black people are concerned, these sell-outs are the first ones to talk about Black people like we've got no sense. It's sickening to see someone claiming they have our people's best interest at heart talk about us like trash as soon as something runs afoul in our diaspora. 

So who's side are these sell-outs really on?

Answer: their own...and whitey's. 

If you're a Black blogger who spends the majority of your time talking about how stupid Black people are; just come out of the closet and call yourself an anglophile, or whitey's lapdog. And if you're selling Black people on the notion that prayer is the answer to all our problems, might I advise you to realize how we, Black folk, do the most praying, and continually wind up getting the short end of the stick time and time again. 

And to those same bloggers let me ask this question about your deep, abiding love for whitey...how many times does this man have to lie to you, before you realize he's a pathological liar, and you start treating him like one? You were pissed off at 'No Good Deed' coming in at number one, well, did you ever think, maybe this film wasn't number one at all, but whitey is just telling us it was? And if you're saying why would he do that? I'm saying, 'cause he wants to put out the message that Black people should keep hating and hurting each other, so we don't form relationships that produce Black children, especially, pure bred looking Black children. 

To all you fair weather, pro-Black bloggers, I say stop dissin' your own kind so you can win ass-kissing points with Mr. Charley. 'Cause whether you know it or not, he wants your dumb-founded ass dead too!

IT'S WAY PAST TIME WE STOP TAKING WHITEY'S WORD FOR EVERYTHING AS THE GOSPEL TRUTH! REMEMER, THIS MAN IS YOUR ENEMY! SO STOP BEING STUCK ON STUPID AND TALK ABOUT HOW DASTARDLY WHITE FOLKS ARE ONCE IN A WHILE INSTEAD OF CONTINUOUSLY BAGGIN' ON BLACK PEOPLE!

And let me say again, in regards to the dysfunction in the Black community, PRAYER IS NOT THE ANSWER! Being a christian isn't the solution to every problem and quite frankly, we were given christianity by these pale-skinned, degenerate devils so our communities would be dysfunctional. Turn the other cheek, love your enemy, confess your sins to perfect strangers, and all that other crap mandated in your religion. 

The only thing that will end the dysfunction in the Black community is reconditioning ourselves at the subconscious level through meditation. This is the only way we'll truly change for the better and save the Black family in the process. Question is how dedicated are Black people to doing this work? And will we do this before it's too late?

Remember people, MONEY IS NOT THE REAL POWER...UNITY IS! It's gonna' take a mental transformation for us to save ourselves. So by all means...let's get to work!

Later.

The triumph(s) of Terrance Howard...

Terrance Dashon Howard was born in Chicago, Illinois on March 11, 1969. His parents Tyrone Howard and Anita Williams moved young Terrance to Cleveland, Ohio where he was raised.

Terrance comes from a long line of stage actors and actresses; his great grandmother and several uncles were known in local theater circles, and I think this had more than a small influence on a young Terrance. 

Unfortunately, the artistic temperament of his household, couldn't shield him from the bigotry of prejudiced whites and the american social order. 

One christmas evening, at the tender age of two, Terrance's live would be changed forever.

21 year old Tyrone Howard took his three sons and his pregnant wife to see santa claus at a local department store called 'Higbee's' in Cleveland, Ohio's Public Square. 

Also there, was a 36 year old white guy named Jack Fitzpatrick who was shopping with his pregnant wife. 

Now, there are differing accounts of what happened between these two men, but from what I've researched and surmised, this is what took place: Tyrone had left his wife and children in 'santa's waiting line' while he looked for a certain product; when he couldn't find it, he returned to his family. 

Mind you, Terrance's father Tyrone is a Black man with a very light-skinned complexion, and in a lot of circles he could pass for white. So when he returned to his family, and his wife especially, who was darker-skinned, Jack the inbred asked Tyrone, "...why'd you let some ni@gers cut you in line?"

After an argument ensued, several witnesses say Jack pinned Tyrone up against a wall, kicked him in the groin and started chocking him. 

Tyrone retaliated by grabbing some sort of sharp instrument and stabbing Jack several times in the neck and thighs. Later, Jack perished from his wounds.

Initially, Tyrone fled the scene to avoid the cops who were called; but after a change of heart, Tyrone turned himself in and was incarcerated shortly afterwards.

It's said that the life of Terrance and his family was turned upside down as they had to leave their middle/working class home to reside in a tenement in a rough part of town. 

All thanks to the bigotry of inbred Jack.

This incident was broadcast in Cleveland's local paper as the 'Santa Line Slaying'. 

This was also the reason Terrance's home became completely unstable after his father was jailed; so much so, that Terrance emancipated himself from his parents at the age of sixteen. At eighteen, he moved to New York City to pursue an acting career. 

Originally, Terrance had aspirations to be a science teacher and was attending the Pratt Institute to pursue that course of study; but once he accompanied his brother to an audition for the 'Cosby Show' and got a part, his life was forever changed once more.

Now, when I originally set out to write this post, I was gonna' call it 'The real triumph of Terrance Howard'; but after doing a bit of research on this man, I saw I couldn't limit his triumphs to just one. 

And it's no secret that Terrance is one the Black Diaspora's finest actors. Along with thespians like Don Cheadle and Jeffery Wright; Terrance's seeming ease at conveying pathos and depth of emotion is nearly unparalleled. And his difficult childhood is what gives him such access to the gravitas and range of sentiments he displays so well; so essentially, he took something negative, and made it positive. 

This is Terrance's personal triumph; now I'd like to talk about his professional one. 

The movie 'Hustle and flow' was an indie film released in theaters in 2005. It was written and directed by Craig Brewer and produced by John Singleton of 'Boys in the hood' fame. 

I couldn't imagine anyone out there hasn't seen this film, but for those who haven't, Terrence plays the protagonist 'Djay', a small town pimp who basically becomes dissatisfied with his life and tries his hand at getting into the music industry. 

I remember my conversation with a middle-aged co-worker who said she saw the movie and wasn't very impressed with it, even though it had garnered so much praise. I gotta' admit, I didn't think the movie itself was so hot either, even though Terrance was nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars. 

And then, what made the film so exceptional hit me. 

But before telling you what aspect of the film made it great, let's explore the person behind this film's script. 

Criag Brewer said this film was dedicated to Sun records founder Sam Phillips. 

And good 'ole Sam was quoted as saying, "...if I could get a white boy who sings like a ni@ger, I could make a million dollars." 

Shortly thereafter, he began working with a young elvis presley. 

Now, this film is set in Memphis, Tennessee, and I remember one of it's white characters saying, in reference to the rise of southern Hip-Hop, "...this music is coming home..."

Like the american south was ever a home for the Black Diaspora; for centuries, up to and including today, the temperment of the american south has its Black citizens feeling like they're behind enemy lines. But just like elvis, this is another attempt at white guys saying they had something to do with the creative ingenuity of Black culture. The next step is to basically claim it as their own (reference Rock and Roll).

'Cause everybody knows, or at least should know, that the birthplace of Hip-Hop is and was in the South Bronx of New York City. 

But, Craig is acting just like every other neo-liberal, white supremacist, fair-skinned guy infatuated with Black culture (reference Quentin Tarantino). 

Side note: Hustle and flow takes place in Memphis, Tennessee and Quentin Tarantino was born in Knoxville, Tennessee. Coincidence? 

Anyway, the reason I'm calling Craig a white supremacist, is he scripted one of the most stereotypical scripts I've seen in years. He talks about how Hip-Hop music is coming home to the american south, but his main Black character is a pimp...surely, if you have so much reverence for the culture, you could have scripted a different vocation for its main character. 

But no matter how 'down' with Black culture white people are, their true feelings will come to the surface about how they always feel superior to us. 

Now in order to get the accolades for this film, and a boost into real celebrity circles, Terrance had to play some sort of low life, (reference Denzel Washington's 'Training Day' and Halle Berry in 'Monster's Ball'); but what made this film so exceptional, in spite of it's third rate, bigoted script, is Terrance's powerhouse performance, and the humanity he brought to this lowly character. 

Terrance almost singlehandedly pulled an extraordinary performance out of a script and a film that had no business being 'green lit' in the first place. 

I remember the scene where Terrance is sitting in a church listening to music while tears streamed down his face; it was a testament not only to his acting prowess, but his ability to call up the gut-wrenching feelings involved with music being 'Djay's' salvation; and it spoke to the day that Terrance's father was plucked out of his life indefinitely. 

Terrance's ability to transmit this kind of primal energy radiates off the screen; and it had little or nothing to do with Craig's bigoted, mediocre script. 

A lesser actor couldn't of pulled off this kind of vocational coup.

I'm glad to see Terrance get his shot at real acting stardom; of course, again, he had to do something self-debasing to do it (reference also Chris Rock's joke about ni@gers and Black people), but it's a rare man who can up-end this ritual and keep an almost regal aire about himself in the process.

So I say kudos, Hotep and Sutekh to the Netcher/Neter/Negus/God Terrance Howard; keep it Black and strong bruh!

Later...
