The end of feminism (Part 6)...

The end of feminism (Part 6)…Overturning Roe vs. Wade, what Black women can learn from the relationship between white feminists and Donald Trump, cancelling Clarence Thomas, and answering the question: Did Martin Luther King Jr. cheat on his wife? (Special 4th of July Edition)

“Most people are thinking the same thing, at the same time, which means, none of them are thinking.”

--Myron Golden, finance guru and motivational speaker

“There is an old saying: if you want to hide the treasure, put it in plain sight. Then no one will see it.”

--Dr. Larry Dossey, physician and author

“President Trump, on behalf of all the ‘MAGA’ patriots, I want to thank you for the historic victory for white life in the Supreme Court yesterday.”

--Congresswoman Mary Miller, speaking on the overturning of the Roe vs. Wade decision

Part 1.

Overturning Roe v. Wade, and what Black women can learn from the relationship between white feminists and Donald Trump

Family, last weekend we saw literally thousands of women protesting over abortion rights in nearly every American city (right). Yep y’all, we saw seas of white women who look like Congresswoman Mary Miller out there on the frontlines, yelling their indignations, while they walked to their local City Halls and houses of government. They even pulled up on Joe “crow” Biden at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Mind you, when I speak about Mary Miller, you gotta’ remember how she recently thanked good ol’ Don Trump for securing a historic win for “white life” in the Supreme Court. Now, herein lies the problem--specifically with the relationship between white women and Donald Trump. 

As of late, we’re seeing the problem “Karens” are having with the banning of abortions—but I gotta’ tell ya', these trailer trash Tinas didn’t always feel this way. Need some proof? Well, let’s take a trip back down memory lane, shall we? Now, in 2016, we gotta' remember how 53% of these same white women voted Agent “Orange” into the presidency. Mind you, they knew Don was a staunch conservative, a complete bigot, and a malevolent misogynist. This said, you’re probably thinkin’, once Don showed his true colors they probably came to their senses, right? Welp, guess what they did at the next election fam’? the Beckys voted for Don AGAIN in 2020. Yep, mr. grab ‘em by the pu$$y, got 55% of their votes—this was more than they gave him in 2016. Now, Don is the one who bought conservatives, like himself, into the Supreme Court. Meaning, these white women have only themselves to blame for Roe v. Wade getting overturned.

Now fam’, you may have also noticed how Clarence Thomas is making the news again, ever since these abortion bans took hold. So, lemme ask this question: when’s the last time you heard Clarence Thomas' name get bought up in a conversation before this? You didn’t. Know why? Cause non-Black people only bring us up when their rights are being infringed upon. Meaning, white women, or white people period, never see themselves as the problem, they see us as the problem—and the real enemy. Regardless of the issue. Moreover, peep out the irony behind millions of white folks signing a petition to get Clarence impeached, while Donald Trump initiated a riot at the Capitol Building, where people were killed, but NOTHINGS happened to him. Also, there are EIGHT other members of the Supreme Court, but they're only singling out Clarence, like he made the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade himself. Mind you, organizations like "Planned Parenthood" set up abortion clinics in our areas FIRST, to get rid of Black infants. Conversely, this abortion battle is one to save the embryos in whitey’s womb. Meaning…

THIS IS NOT OUR FIGHT FAM’!

So let Becky, Belinda, and Marsha take to the streets to decry the overturning of Roe v. Wade, BY THEMSELVES. 'Cause quite frankly, it’s high time Black Americans stopped using abortion as a means of contraception, so we can voluntarily kill off a third of our newborns. The "Sex and the City" summers are over--and Indigenous Black Americans will be all the better for it. 

Part 2.

Did Martin Luther King Jr. cheat on his wife?

Family, watch this clip. Warning: this video contains profane language, viewer discretion is advised...

Fam’, what you just witnessed was the comedian and YouTube personality, B. Simone, and her lesbian lover, I mean, her “friend”, discussing how Martin Luther King Jr. cheated on his wife Coretta, and why, for these reasons, he shouldn’t be regarded as a great Civil Rights leader and activist. Mind you, I could care less about what these tenement trash twins say regarding MLK, however--what I did find more disturbing than their sheer ignorance, was how Black men were responding to the rants of these two hoodrats. 

Almost universally, Black men were saying, just ‘cause MLK cheated on his wife, doesn’t mean he wasn’t a great leader. Which had me asking the question: Well, did MLK cheat on his wife? I mean, do we have definitive proof of MLK cheating on Coretta? Are there pics of MLK in bed with other women? Now, lemme remind you fam’, I am NOT a fan of MLK! I consider him a patsy, a pansy, and a good-for-nothing pacifist…who died violently. He and Rosa Parks got us to buy into the trick of integration, and when MLK realized how he got played, he said to Harry Belafonte, “I fear I am integrating my people into a burning house.” Conversely, because MLK genuinely thought he was doing the right thing by his people, the least we can do, is set the record straight about his allegedly “adulterous” affairs. So I took a trip 'cross town to see my old friend “research”, and this is what research showed me…

Now, David Jeffries Garrow is an American author and a “democratic socialist”, meaning, he’s really a white fascist in a “liberal’s” clothing. This said, one of the books he wrote is regarded as the definitive MLK biography, and this book is titled, “Bearing the Cross: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern Leadership Conference". This book came out in 1986 and in ’87, Dave won the Pulitzer Prize for Biography with this tome. Ironically enough, Dave also wrote a book about abortion and reproductive rights “pre” Roe v. Wade called, “Liberty and Sexuality” in 1994.

Anyway, the deeper I dug into Dave’s professional life, the more I saw how his peers regarded him as a “hack” and a failed scholar. Meaning, professional historians in other fields called Dave’s later work on MLK, “deeply irresponsible”, especially when it came to Dave’s cited “sources”. Examples of this are Jeanne Theoharis, who’s currently a Distinguished Professor of Political Science at New York’s Brooklyn College, who commented on Dave’s work saying, “Most scholars I know would penalize grad students for doing this…” in regards to Dave’s penchant for listing unreliable source references. Mind you, Dave Garrow is the man who’s most responsible for promoting the narrative of government forces (FBI, CIA, etc.) finding out about the affairs MLK allegedly had behind Coretta's back.

This said fam’, if you’re anything like me, you gotta’ be thinkin’, this ain’t nearly enough to dismiss all the cheating allegations lobbed at MLK. So, I asked “research” to show me more--this is when I uncovered a 2019 article in “Standpoint” magazine where Dave wrote about “new” information he’d discovered through FBI documents regarding MLK's sexual dalliances. At the nucleus of this evidence, was a woman named, Dorothy Cotton, who FBI documents describe as MLK’s “constant paramour”. In other words, this woman was called MLK’s “second wife” ‘cause they spent so much time together. So, I rubbed my hands thinking, okay, finally we’re gonna’ get to the bottom of this. Mind you, in this same article, Dave also details FBI wiretaps from 1964, where MLK’s on the phone with Coretta, and she allegedly berates him for “not spending enough time alone with her.” This further led me to believe I was finally gonna’ get to some solid proof.

Now, Dave says in July of 2017, he spent two days with Ms. Cotton, and this is when she confessed to her “close relationship” with MLK. The article then says, Ms. Cotton went on to describe the “intimacy” of their relationship by saying she and MLK had a “deep love” of POETRY. I was like, poetry? Really? Then I got further into the article, where Dave says, MLK would stay at Ms. Cotton’s house while he was on the road organizing protests and marches, and in the middle of the night, he'd occasionally get up and recite “poetry verses” with her. At this point I was like, you gotta’ be freakin’ kidding me. Mind you, I found out later, how Standpoint magazine’s editor, Mike Mosbacher, said this article was rejected by The Washington Post, the Atlantic, and The Guardian.  

Undaunted, I recalled hearing Dave say something about an assortment of new documents, tapes, and other evidence the FBI had gathered while surveilling MLK in the ‘50’s and 60’s. Mind you, these materials are said to hold evidence of MLK engaging in all kinds of trysts, orgies, and even had King initiating the rape of a woman in a hotel room. So I was like, okay, here’s where the rubber meets the road. There was only one problem--these documents and tapes are SEALED in the US National Archives until 2027! Coincidence? Hmmmm…

So fam’, I’ve said all this to say, in regards to answering the question of whether MLK cheated on Coretta, “research” has shown me...NO! MLK DID NOT CHEAT ON CORETTAIT WAS ALL A DAMN LIE Y’ALL! DAVE, THE FBI, AND THE CIA, MADE THIS CRAP UP TO DISCREDIT MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.

‘Cause trust, if whitey woulda’ had taped and documented proof of MLK's affairs, they'd have made this available for the whole world to see. Now, you might be asking, well, why would chez whitey do this to MLK and NOT  to Malcolm X? Simple, Malcolm was already a threat. He was known for calling the white man the blue-eyed devil and never failed to center his lectures around self-defense. So they didn't need any damning evidence against him. Conversely, they didn’t have anything on MLK. Meaning, he was the perfect pacifist preacher, who whitey doted on. Until, he spoke out against the Vietnam War. This is when white fascists deemed him dangerous, and started rumors about MLK’s “infidelities”. So, this is yet another instance which proves the Black Nationlist proverb saying…

YOU CAN’T TRUST wHITEY’S WORD FOR NOTHIN’!

So, for future reference fam’, before you castigate the memory of a brotha or sista, AT LEAST give them the benefit of the doubt enough to visit my ol’ pal “research”. This way you can say you've done your due diligence before throwing one of us under the bus.

And like Samuel L. Jackson said in Spike Lee’s classic film, “Do the Right Thing”…”That’s the double truth, Ruth.”

Later…

Fam', I wantcha' to notice how Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez conflates the abortion issue with Black oppression without batting an eye in the vid' below. Mind you, these latino politicians never bring us up when they're allocating monies to the latino, gay, or asian communities, but they're quick to align themselves with our struggles when it benefits them.

The Gospel of white fascism (Part 45)...Here's what Lee Harvey Oswald, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, and every social order on earth have in common...


“In order to truly win a game, you have to control both teams.”
—David Icke

Lee Harvey Oswald was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on October 18th, 1939. His father, Robert Edward Lee Oswald Sr., is noted as a distant cousin of confederate general, Robert E. Lee, and Oswald Sr. served in the Marines during “World War I”. Unfortunately, Oswald Sr. died of a heart attack 2 months before Lee was born—and behind his death, a young Lee, his mother Marguerite, and Lee’s elder half-brother, Robert Jr., lived a life of itinerant, working-class destitution, for most, if not all of Lee Oswald’s youth.

Oswald attended seventh grade in the Bronx, New York, where he was often truant—and this led to his being put into a “reformatory” school. This school’s psychiatrist, a Dr. Renatus Hartogs, diagnosed Lee as having, a “personality pattern disturbance with ‘schizoid’ features and ‘passive-aggressive’ tendencies…”

Now, Oswald was also diagnosed with a “reading disability”, but paradoxically, was known to be a voracious reader. And supposedly, what he loved reading most were tomes about “Marxism” and “Socialism”—and supposedly, at age 15, he declared himself a “Marxist”. Mind you, this is contrary to what Oswald’s close friend at the time, Edward Voebel, witnessed. When asked about Oswald’s reading habits, Ed said reports about Lee avidly reading these kinds of books were a “bunch of baloney”—Ed also stated the kinds of literature Lee was partial to was “paperback trash”.

At age 17, Oswald dropped out of school, and joined the Marines. After finishing bootcamp, Oswald was trained in “radar operations”, which required a “security clearance” he was granted in May of 1957, and like all Marines, Oswald was also trained and tested in shooting. In December of 1956, he scored a “212” for his shooting endeavors, which barely bested the title of “sharpshooter”—and, in May of 1959, Oswald scored a “191” on a shooting test, lowering his ranking to “marksman”. Anecdotally, Oswald was “court-martialed” for shooting himself in the elbow with an unauthorized .22 caliber handgun—so much for the “lone shooter” theory.

Now, while Oswald was in the Marines, he made efforts to teach himself rudimentary Russian, and was later given a “proficiency” test in the language (coincidence?). And supposedly, his ability to speak Russian was labeled as “poor”, but his abilities to read and write the language were better (despite his aforementioned reading impediment). Shortly thereafter, he was discharged from the Marine Corp on September 11th, 1959, but remained on the u.s. Marine Corp Reserve list.

Mind you, it’s documented that Oswald “defected” to Russia on October of 1959, just before age 20—then, 3 years later, the U.S. embassy gave him a “repatriation” loan of $435.71, so he could come back to the “states” …again, coincidence? Hmmm. In August of 1963, Oswald was seen handing out leaflets titled, “Fairplay for Cuba”, in New Orleans—and I think we all know how “his-story” ends—with Oswald being blamed for the assassination of JFK, and his being murdered by Jack Ruby.

Moving On…

Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January 15th, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia, he was the middle child of Martin Luther King Sr. and Alberta Williams King. From his childhood, Martin saw his father’s proud and fearless protests of segregation, while noting his indignations towards white people for their belligerence and antagonism towards him and his people in general. Meaning, Martin internalized a schizophrenic mind-set from jump, ‘cause he saw firsthand how his father wanted to peacefully co-exist with people who wanted nothing to do with him.

And yes folks, I’m biased.

As a child, Martin attended the David T. Howard elementary school, before going to Booker T. Washington High—now, with his being an academically gifted student, Martin entered “Morehouse College” at the age of 15. At Morehouse, he played freshman football until the summer of 1947, when he entered the ministry at 18. In 1948, Martin attained a B.A. in philosophy, and then enrolled in Crozer Theological Seminary, in Chester, Pennsylvania, where he earned a B.Div. degree in 1951. Thereafter, Martin began doctoral studies in systematic theology at Boston University, where he received his PhD on June 5th, 1955—and while pursuing his doctorate degree, Martin worked as an assistant minister at Boston’s historic Twelfth Baptist Church, with Rev. William Hunter Hester. And in that same year, Martin would find himself thrust into the national spotlight behind his being the face of the “Montgomery Bus Boycott”—and we’ll mos def talk about this in a hot ‘sec.

Rosa Louise McCauley Parks, better known as, Rosa Parks, was born in Tuskegee, Alabama on February 4th, 1913 to Leona Edwards and James McCauley. And yes folks, this is the same place where the infamous “Tuskegee experiments” happened, where Black men were given “syphilis” by white scientists to see its effects on them.

Now, Rosa was in her pre-teens when her parents separated, and as a result, she and her mother moved to Pine Level, just outside the state capital, of Montgomery. Her remaining family, which consisted of Rosa’s maternal grandparents, mother, and younger brother Sylvester, lived on a farm while Rosa attended elementary school. After graduating from the “Industrial School for Girls” in Montgomery, Rosa was sent to the Alabama State Teachers College for Negroes. Yeah, they still called us negroes back then—alas, Rosa dropped out of this school due to her having to take care of her grandmother, and later her mother after she took ill.

In 1932, Rosa married Raymond Parks, a barber from Montgomery. Raymond was a member of the NAACP, who were collecting money for the legal defense of the “Scottsboro Boys” at the time—and for those who don’t know, the Scottsboro Boys were a group of young Black men falsely accused of raping two white women. And while Rosa worked various jobs, she and her husband were deeply rooted in the “Civil Rights” struggle. This was due to the harsh Jim Crow Laws and the general belligerence of southern (and northern) white folks towards our people. And it was after the killing of young Emmet Till, who was falsely accused of “flirting” with one other white woman by whistling at her, that Rosa famously took a stand by refusing to give up her seat to some white man on a Montgomery bus—and this happened on the date of December 1st, 1955.

Now, let’s stop here…

At this point y’all are probably thinkin’, aiight—we obviously see the connection between Martin and Rosa—but Lee Harvey Oswald? How in the world do these two have anything to do wit’ each other?

Here’s how…

On September 2nd, of 1957, Martin Luther King Jr. joined the staff and participants of a “leadership training conference” at the “Highlander Folk School” to commemorate its 25th Anniversary. In his closing address, King praised Highlander for its, “noble purpose and creative work…” He also said that the school contributed to the South by rearing, “some of its most responsible leaders in this great period of ‘transition’”. And right now you might be thinkin’, so what? And I would too, if it weren’t for the fact that the Highlander Folk School wasn’t only a facility that trained “Civil Rights” activists, but it was also a “Communist training school”—just like the one this government put Lee Harvey in.

Now, if you check out the pic to the left, you’ll not only see a young MLK (#1), but you’ll see Rosa Parks (#2) beneath the red arrows. And below you’ll see one more pic of Martin, Rosa and Ralph Abernathy, the Christian minister and Civil Rights “activist”. And you can click both pics to enlarge them.

And, fam, let me say, straight off—I don’t care about “communism” or “capitalism”, I only care about BLACK “NATIONALISM”PERIOD!

Meaning, I could care less if Rosa and King and Lee Harvey were communists, cause what I KNOW is, they were ALL AGENTS WORKING FOR THIS GOVERNMENT! POINT BLANK PERIOD!

Now, you want a bit more proof of these folks being fake as a $3 dollar bill? Aiight, bet. To the right is a pic of a young girl named Claudette Colvin, and why am I writing about her? Cause on the date of March 2nd, 1955, this 15-year-old girl also refused to give up her seat to a white man on a bus—and mind you, she did this 9 months before Rosa. Now, Claudette was pregnant at the time, so organizers like MLK’s and Rosa’s “handlers” at Highlander, figured having her spearhead this “movement” wouldn’t make it attractive to Black folks, being that she was a 15-year-old expectant mother. So, their handlers “coordinated” this incident happening in Montgomery, Alabama—meaning…

ROSA PARKS NOT GIVING UP HER SEAT ON THE BUS WAS STAGED Y’ALL!

Again, it was “coordinated” so BLACK aMERICANS WOULD FALL FOR THE “TRICK” OF INTEGRATION!

And for those of you who’re new to this blog, you may be askin’, why would whitey WANNA’ PUSH INTEGRATION? Simple, to get OUR MONEY IN THEIR POCKETS, CAUSE WE WERE GETTING TOO POWERFUL UNDER SEGREGATION!

ESPECIALLY IN PLACES LIKE THE “BLACK WALL STREET” FOR INSTANCE!

Now, I liken this scenario to Lee Harvey “pretending” he was some sorta’ communist sympathizer, when in fact, he was just another stooge working for america’s white fascist social order—pity he didn’t understand that his own handlers were gonna’ have him killed.

Oh yeah, not only did Jack Ruby work for the government, but he had mafia ties too—and we all know how the mob and the CIA worked together to fly and float drugs into the Black community. But you don’t have to take my word for this—do the research and find out for yo’self.

Moving on…

Now, those of you who did read my heading and saw “Harriet Tubman” mentioned might be thinking—bruh, what’s she gotta’ do wit’ this? Well, let’s get into that right quick…

So, fam, once again, I was gonna’ follow a certain protocol to write this part of the post, but I’m gonna’ hit y’all wit’ another freestyle—so, please indulge me.

The movie “Harriet”, which is slated for theatrical release on November 1st, of this year, is a “biopic” about the abolitionist history of Harriet Tubman—and if you’re reading this article, you probably already know this. Now, long story short, I’ll leave a link for an earlier post I wrote detailing why Harriet Tubman was a white fascist freemason—and I know you’re probably thinkin’, bruh, you say that about EEEERYBODY! Trust, I got receipts to back this up, so you should mos def check out the link I’ll leave at the end of this post ta’ read that article.

But more than anything, the elites wanna’ have Black folks obsessing on Harriet’s memory cause what she represents to them, and “Us”, is a mental focal point that keeps us thinkin’ that the “Tranatlanic Slave Trade” (TST) narrative was 100% TRUE!

And that’s just BOGUS!

Now, what do I mean when I say the TST was “bogus”? I mean this…BLACK PEOPLE DIDN’T COME TO AMERICA ON NO DAMN SLAVE SHIPS, ‘CAUSE WE WERE ALREADY HERE, AND WE WERE HERE BEFORE ANYBODY ELSE, FAM!

Mind you, in the last article I wrote about Harriet Tubman, I speak on how the illustrations of slave ships had NO BASIS IN REALITY! And I have the Moor/MUUR, Tarik Taj Bey, give reasons why this is a fact in a short video.

Now, there’s another controversy brewing behind the release of this flick, and that’s this—people are kinda’ up in arms about the fact that they got a sista from the UK, Cynthia Erivo, playin’ Harriet Tubman. Additionally, many brothas and sistas here are appalled at Cynthia’s past “tweets” that call the cadences of Black americans “ghetto”—so, wit’ that said, here’s my 2 cents ‘bout this…

Let me say, right off tha’ rip that NO BLACK PERSON SHOULD GO TO SEE THIS MOVIE! Whether they’re from Brixton or Brooklyn. Here’s why…

What Harriet Tubman really reps is a “mental trigger” that’s not only supposed to remind us of the fallacious TST, but this woman’s memory is meant to keep Black folks in every part of the diaspora feeling inferior to whites. And by this I mean, obsessing over Harriet is meant to keep us mentally bound to the stereotype of Black peoples (entire) world history being encapsulated by 2 events, those being: slavery and the life of Martin Luther King.

Now, am I sayin’ that Black people were NEVER enslaved…NO—but, I’m sayin’ that the TST narrative is 90% FICTION—AND LESS THAN 10% FACT!

So, the real moral of this movie’s story is—IF THE BLACK DIASPORA DOESN’T SEE THE TRICK wHITEY’S RUNNIN’ ON US, WITH OUR BICKERING AMONGST EACH OTHER, THEN MR. (AND MS.) WHITEFOLKS HAVE ALREADY WON THIS BATTLE!

And it shows that if we don’t see “ALL” OUR DYSFUNCTIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE wHITE FASCIST SOCIAL ORDERS THAT CREATED THEM, THEN WE DON’T HAVE A CHANCE OF UNITING AGAINST THIS INBRED AND WINNING OUR RIGHTFUL PLACE (BACK) ON TOP!

And like Sam L. Jackson said in Spike Lee’s classic movie, “Do the Right Thing”: “That’s the double truth, Ruth.”

Later…

The Ancient Future (Part 2)...


For any Black man or woman who still thinks we have allies amongst other ethnic groups, I beseech you to read the tale of brotha Ray Robinson. 

And afterwards...I'm hoping you'll reevaluate your position.

The virutes of segregation (Part 3)...The ballad of Ray Robinson...


Perry Ray Robinson Jr., was born on September 12th, 1937, in Washington D.C.

Ray was reared in the 'Civil Rights' and 'integration' struggles of the fifties, and according to people who knew him was at the Washington Mall on the day Martin Luther King jr., made his famous 'I have a dream' speech. He also attended the 1964 funeral of three white civil rights workers killed in Mississippi. And in 1968, Robinson was among the protesters who set up Resurrection City, a camp at the Washington Mall. 

"Ray was always involved in justice for everybody," said his younger sister, Naima Latif of Pittsboro, N.C. "He was a nonconformist to the status quo. If it was unjust, he wouldn't go along with it."  

Even the way Robinson filled out his children's birth certificates showed his disdain for separating people by ethnicity. Instead of filling in the blank next to "Negro" or "colored," he crossed it out and wrote
in "human" each time.  

In a quest to further display his 'human' solidarity, Ray volunteered to travel to South Dakota's, 'Pine Ridge Indian Reservation', in April of 1973. There, he stood alongside american indians in their fight against the machinations of white supremacy. He integrated himself into the ranks of the 'american indian movement' (or AIM), and their occupation of the reservation village of 'Wounded Knee' in South Dakota. 

This stand off against factions of american federal officers and american indians lasted 71 days, and left two indian tribal members dead and a federal agent seriously wounded. And unfortunately, it also took the life of brotha Ray Robinson.  

Now, you might be thinking, Ray fought valiantly against the american federal agents, which ultimately brought about his demise; but you'd be wrong. Ray was not killed by american authorities, he was killed by members of AIM, who mistook him for a federal agent. Simply because he was Black.

Some reports even say he was 'tortured', then murdered, by these american indians.  

Buswell-Robinson, of Detroit, Ray's wife, said her husband's nonviolent approach conflicted with the violent situation at Wounded Knee and it's possible AIM members suspected he was a federal informant. The personable, 6-foot-2 black man with a deep baritone voice, would have stood out on a midwest american indian reservation, she said.

According to the FBI documents, an unidentified cooperating witness told agents that, "Robinson had been tortured and murdered within the AIM occupation perimeter, and then his remains were buried 'in the hills'."

Any search or excavation attempts would likely be complicated by the reservation's sovereign status. Buswell-Robinson and her two daughters, traveled to Wounded Knee in 2004 to walk areas that Robinson likely walked, but they came back without answers. For years, they've been trying to locate Ray's remains to give him a proper burial.

And for decades, AIM leaders have denied knowledge of Robinson's death. One witness told agents that AIM leader Vernon Bellecourt, who died in 2007, knew Robinson had been killed and, "made a statement to the effect that AIM had 'really managed to keep a tight lid on that one' over the years'."

Clyde Bellecourt, AIM's co-founder, when asked about Ray, questioned why the FBI wasn't spending its time investigating the many unsolved american indian deaths during 'Wounded Knee'.

"There's never been a grand jury hearing on any of them." Clyde said.


Now, if you're a Black man or woman reading this, I'd like you to take this story into consideration the next time you or any other Black person wants to brag about having 'indian in your family'.

Recently, I got into a heated debate with a so-called native american, behind his extolling the virtues of the 'white moral highground'. Firstly, Black people are the real 'native americans', 'cause we were here before them; look up the 'Washitaw Moors' if you want to know who was in america before the american indians. Second, when I asked how this american indian could talk about the virtues of white people, after what they'd done to his people, he told me his people's 'casinos' were making them rich and they didn't pay federal taxes. When I asked if he was personally rich from his people owning casinos, I didn't hear back from him. Moreover, if they are indigenous people, like they claim, why are they paying any american taxes?

Moving on...

So, I'm relaying this story here to tell Black people, it's high time we stopped talking about the many benefits of 'multi-culturalism'. This mainstreamed multicultural campaign is just a ruse used by white and other non-white americans, to tell Black people that we shouldn't ever think about ourselves exclusively in the context of human rights struggles. And, it's telling us we shouldn't follow the examples of every other ethnic group, who only think about themselves. 

Like I've said before in this blog, the 'integration' initiatives of Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King jr., were just tricks played on Black people to make us walk away from the thriving business economy we'd created separate from the american social order. Meaning, our dollars were getting too powerful, so whitey had to figure out a way to get them in his/her pockets. 

And again, the reason we did walk away from our own businesses, was we'd been conditioned by white fascists, especially in the american educational system, to love them and hate ourselves. So we thought, any closer proximity to whites would be a boom for Black people. And we bit the bait. And white fascists knew we would, 'cause they understood how they'd conditioned us. 

So I've said all that to say this...THE BLACK DIASPORA HAS NO FRIENDS!

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS, WE DON'T NEED ANY!!

ALL WE NEED IS EACH OTHER!

Remember, our strength is not in our dollars, but in our UNITY! 

So that's what's needed to get outta' this white supremacist induced, mental strangle-hold we're in. 

Now again, if you're a Black man or woman reading this, ask yourself: do you care whether or not Black people unite for their betterment? Do you care about healing the rift between the Black man and woman so we can save the Black family?

Now, if you don't, you've wasted your time coming to my Blog in the first place. But if you do, the first step is not trying to convince every Black person to adopt your opinion, the first step is changing YOUR OWN MIND!

How we get outta' this, is ridding ourselves of the self-hatred bred into us by white supremacists and their institutions. It involves you doing the work, especially at the subconscious level, to stop feeling inferior to every other ethnic group because of your color. 

And even if you don't wanna' do any of the subconscious work to change, if we can collectively acknowledge what's been done to us, we'll be able to see ourselves and each other in a different light. 

So let's get to work!

Ma'at Hotep!

The virtues of segregation (Part 2) The movie 'Selma' and the cult of Black masochism...


Originally, I wasn't going to write about the movie 'Selma'; 'cause I basically knew, this movie would serve as another trigger to get Black folks to hate themselves via more imagery of us being brutalized trying to get the right to sit or stand next to a white person. Then I had a change of heart, behind a gathering I was within earshot of at my local library.

A middle-aged Black woman led five young Black girls, the oldest appeared to be about seven or eight, into the library's lounge; which I happened to be seated next to. She began waxing philosophic about Black women heroines of the past, and I thought that sounded pretty positive. The girls took a vote on which biography they wanted read to them; the choice was between Coretta Scott King or Rosa Parks. Being that we've all been force-fed the iconography of Dr. King, the girls voted on Coretta. But somehow, the Black woman mentor gave up talking about Coretta and began speaking about Rosa.

The woman mentor went through the usual paces of talking about Rosa Parks not giving up her seat to a white man, before the lecture took a strange turn. This woman began asking the girls whether or not Rosa was brave for not giving up her seat to the white man on the bus, so she could start the initiative to integrate the bus system and this country. The girls all agreed Rosa was indeed brave. Then the Black woman began talking about Rosa having to go to jail to start the integration initiative, i.e. the 'Civil Rights' movement. A second later, this woman asked the girls, would they be willing to go to jail in support of the integration movement? Then I turned around and shot this woman a perplexed look. She didn't see me 'cause her back was turned to me. The woman continued asking the girls in different ways, if they'd be brave enough to go to prison in support of integration. I was thinking about saying something to this woman, when another Black woman working for the library, came and told her that the room they usually use was now free; so the small class moved out of the lounge and into this room.

After the small group of girls went in this room, a sign was put on the door saying, 'Meeting in session, do not disturb'. My head couldn't stop shaking.

Now, this would be insidious enough if it were a group of young Black boys being asked this, but this woman was asking this of young Black GIRLS! What this woman was imparting to these Black girls was the notion that they should be ready to literally lay their lives on the line for the privilege of standing or sitting next to a white person.

And this again, ultimately, is the message of the movie 'Selma'.

Now, I'm not gonna' lie and say I saw this movie, 'cause I haven't...and I won't. To me, this is one in a long line of cavalcade of stars coon show flicks, in the spirit of: '12 years a slave', 'The Help', 'The Butler', 'Django Unchained', etc. And when I watched the trailer of this flick, what I saw repulsed me. There's one moment in the trailer I'll include at the end of this post, where a state trooper at the march on the Edmund Pettis Bridge in Selma, puts razor wire around a bat, for the up-coming slaughter of our people. There's another moment where the actor playing Martin King introduces himself to a white man, who punches him in the face a second after. A moment later, you see Martin with an ice-pack on his face, uttering the words, “Man, that white boy sure can hit.” Now this is doing two things, one, it's quelling the white man's inferiority complex around his being physically weaker than a Black man; and two, it's telling Black adults, like the woman mentor in the library was doing with those children, that we as Black people, should be masochists when it comes to trying to gain, or keep, a close proximity to white people...who are killing us!

And that's the main tenet of this film folks, to tell the Black Diaspora how we should continue to love these inbreds, literally, TO DEATH!

And, at the base layer of this crap flick, again, is the good 'ole psychological trigger of Black people watching themselves being brutalized, so as to make sure our minds stay anchored in the self-hatred these people have bred into us. Good night at the pictures, huh?

Now, as of late, I've begun talking on this Blog about the virtues of segregation, hence, the title of this post. And what I always want to make perfectly clear is, if you're a Black man or woman reading this, I'm not telling you to pack a bag and get on the next thing smokin' to Africa. But if you have the financial wherewithal to do so and that's the choice you've made, more power to you. For myself and the overwhelming majority of Black folks in america, it's not that simple. Not only have we built lives here, but it takes an organized infrastructure to make this transition on a massive scale. And we all need food, clothing and shelter in the meantime. But, I say our 'long-term' goal should be building a nation, or nation state where ethnic homogeneity, on our terms, would mean we could work for an economy that is literally, for us, by us. But before we can achieve any of this, we have to rid our selves of the self-hatred that movies like 'Selma' are hell-bent on reinforcing. And, whether we, the Black Diaspora, like it or not, we're going to face another period of segregation in this country. What's coming behind this massive wave of gentrification in america, is our people being put into areas where we have less access to resources, especially the resource of public transportation. Whitey feels we have too much access to stores, trains, buses, and other vital goods in the areas he's sequestered us into. So, white fascists are hell-bent on putting poor Black folks in rural areas, where you have to get pretty much of everything, and where you have to get everywhere, by car. And if you don't have one, then they can more easily restrict your access to damn near everything.

But again, before building any kind of sovereign nation, our diaspora has to get back to square one, which is, how do we recondition ourselves out of our self-hatred?

Now, my answer will always be, by accessing the subconscious through a means of meditation. And, beyond the fact that I'm working on a technique allowing anyone to access the subconscious in under five minutes, which I'll share with the family soon; I understand, the majority of our diaspora are really not gonna' take to this. So I say to those who really want to rid themselves of this self-loathing, that you should find what works best for you. Whether it be positive visualization, self-hypnosis, or some sort of chanting ritual. But whatever you do, don't think you're gonna' pray this away, 'cause you won't. Like I said in a previous post, prayer changes things, but one thing it doesn't change is behavior. Find a way to get into your subconscious, so you'll see some tangible results. 'Cause again, ten 'hail marys' and five renditions of the 'lord's prayer' ain't gonna' cut it.

And, it could be that my generation is too far gone to be saved from this self-hatred, but we should do all we can to help our youth rid themselves of this. 'Cause if we do this seriously and diligently, we could see a change in our people in a matter of two or three decades.

Now, will we do all this before it's too late? Ultimately, that's the greatest question of all. So let's get to work...and the sooner, the better.

Later...
