I looove what you wrote. We need to outhink Whites to make it! This excerpt below exposes what is really going in schools. What they do to the Natives in Hawaii it is exactly the same thing they are doing to us in the Western Society. This excerpt is sooo true Mack that when I sent it in the past in another blog a White policeman appeared to fight with me. It has been more than 15 years I have posted comments in the Internet and it never happened to me before so it confirmed to me it was the truth.

In Hawaii, the population never had a governor of Hawaiian origins. In the 70s they had someone from the Philipins and that’s it, never another minority! And we all know it is not because they are not smart. The mainstream keeps them at the bottom of the society like Black people. You will find below an excerpt (from the book Why We Want You To Be Rich (p. 167-168) by Donald Trump and Robert T. Kiyosaki) which explains what they do to the Natives over there (it is a narration from Kiyosaki who has hawaiian origins), they use the same tactics in America with black kids especially black boys (80% of the kids who are in special education programs are from the Black community!!!):

” My dad was a great man. Even as a child, I looked up to him and respected him. I was proud to be his son, and I wanted him to be proud of me. On the first day of school, teachers would read the class roster and every teacher would stop after calling out my name and say, “Is Ralph Kiyosaki your father?” My dad was the head of education for the state of Hawaii. He was tall for being Japanese, about 6’3, so he stood out in more ways than one. He was known as a brilliant man and an independent thinker. He had graduated at the top of his class as valedictorian and was respected as a great educator in the school system of Hawaii. Just before he passed away, he was recognized as one of the top two educators in Hawaii’s history. I remember him showing me the newspaper article about the award and he was crying. As the article said, he had dedicated his life to education and Hawaii’s children.

My dad had originally planned on going to medical school. Our family for generations, had been medical doctors. But when he was in high school, on the island of Maui, he noticed that his classmates were rapidly disappearing from class. As student president of his class, he went to the principal to find out where the kids were going. At first, he got the runaround, but he finally learned the truth. He found out that the sugar plantation that most of the kids’ parents worked for had a standing order that 20 percent of the kids had to be failed, regardless of how they were doing in school. This was to ensure that the sugar plantation had enough uneducated laborers. My father learned that teachers, principals and people at all levels within the education system went along with that. It was then that my father decided against medical school and went to college to become a teacher to try to change the system. In addition, he fought to bring the best education possible to kids whose parents could not afford private schools – kids who had no choice but to depend on the public school system to work for them instead of against them. He fought that battle all his life.

However, our country’s education system is just getting worse. America has one of the worst educational systems in the world, yet it spends more money on education than any other country does. As hard as my dad fought, the state of Hawaii continues to have one of the worst education sytems in America. The May 2006 issue of Honolulu Magazine ran a cover-page article grading public schools in Hawaii. The article stated that the National Education Association (NEA) rated Hawaii as number 43 out of the 50 states – in other words, the seventh lowest in the nation. It issued a D- in standards and accountability, an F for school climate, a D for improving teacher quality and a C in adequacy of school resources”.

You have to write a book!!!

Knee-grows fall for the same song and dance, not overstanding this is part of a psychological ploy to keep us in servitude to this shitstym that is not even beneficial to Caucasians. Mack talked about economics and gave an excellent breakdown of why we are where we are, and Terrence Amen has a blue print for us, still we fight an uphill battle based on believing in backing the wrong program. Previously I mentioned skills as opposed to requirement as a point of discussion for knee-grows sitting down and expecting hand outs from either the donkey or the elephant. The joke was that the last time we experienced high employment was during our internment on the plantation. The skills we brought from home, coupled with the skills we developed here, created a skill based work force that upon the “legal” emancipation, we didn’t have to work for the devils anymore.

There are numerous reports of former slavers asking the freed prisoners of war to come back and help build their business. But we were extremely skilled and employable. We started our own business down south and those who decided to go north, had the skills to more than compete in the industrial sector. They feared our skill set so much that three significant organization rose out of the ashes of slavery in an industrial America. The Klu Klux Klan, out of petty jealousy and to remind knee-grows we weren’t equal…so no race mixing to create white genetic annihilation. There was the NRA, to help the KKK enforce their policy. And then there were the trade Unions, developed to ensure that we didn’t take those factory jobs based on our superior skill set. Even today you see the Unions as a club that often want to exclude us from the numerous apprenticeship positions. America decided that anything but us would be better, so the motto, bring me your sick, your poor, etc, etc became the mantra for any Caucasian immigrant can come over her, get land grants and a leg up in America is better than them knee-grows. Both the donkey and the elephant signed off on this shit, so we took our skills and created Black Wall Street and numerous other enlighten enclaves before government sanctioned anti ethnic riots screwed it up for us. In the end we moved away from African economics and community building and integrated at the behest of both governments, who never intended for us to compete with them in the work force. So this anti or pro Obama shit is just farting in the wind, and not taking care of our own business for ourselves. This is what’s messing us up as a society and a people in this society.

Didnt mean to come off as confrontational with Sankofa. Just the way it came off. I agree 100% percent that it was about money and power, I just took the route of explaining how they hid that agenda by using “the slaves must be freed” as a cover. It was good for me to learn that because it is one of the first and best cases that I know of, where blacks were used politically on both sides and how that continues today. As such I can say with clarity of mind that I do not care for Obama or anyone else in the White House. I should have known better to debate HIS-STORY, especially when it is taught in a way to hide the truth.

~Peace, through knowledge, understanding and prosperity~

I’m glad Mack came in and said what he said. We have to get off of these debates about this and that. The past is good to know because you can learn from it. But we need to focus on now and it’s all about Black Unity. You are either in the camp that’s going to help your people come together in order to help us be the best that we can be, in all areas of our lives, or you’re going to stay in the camp that has kept us divided in order to keep them in power and us paying for it. It’s just that simple. We have to create our own everything. I have a plan, but if you don’t like it, look for another. It’s time to build together. This is the only way we will change anything. It’s our time Brothers and Sisters. It’s our time. For more information, click on my name.

Black Unity means financial independence and happiness

First thing to understand: Obama couldn’t give a damn about the interests of black folks. And that goes for his wife Michelle too. We aren’t the ones who hired him, so he doesn’t owe us anything. And this isn’t being a sellout to say this. Its being a realist. Obama became president for the same reason Lincoln did: they both share the same bloodline as the European monarchies.

Still think you actually ‘picked’ the president? The fact is, every 4 years you get to choose between two cousins from the same royal family. And whichever one has the closest direct lineage to the folks back in Europe wins every time. Welcome to democracy! As for the reasons behind the Civil War: Sankofa nailed it. It was definitely for economic reasons.

White folks didn’t suddenly grow a heart for the poor blacks stuck in servitude. They couldn’t care less. This was a war between two separate factions of rich people: industialists in the North and plantation owners in the South. The south was stifling competition, undermining the rules of capitalism by maintaing a competitive advantage. They had free slave labor, allowing them to have lower prices for their goods and services. The north had to actually pay their workers, meaning they were at a competitive disadvantage when it comes to business. And make no mistake about it: its ALWAYS about business.

The North demanded the South to release their slaves and give up their competitive advantage. The south told the north to basically go play in traffic; and the rest as they say is history.

Lies My Teacher Told Me is a great book on history that any true history buff should have in their personal library. There are others, but to truly understand why wars are fought, and why Sundown Towns were created that made it illegal for blacks to live there, always look for the economic interests.

Wars are not fought for ideals; wars are fought over money. Black folks aren’t oppressed in this country because whites just don’t like us; we’re kept back because allowing us to catch up would take away their competitive advantage. Forget what you’ve been told; in business, NOBODY wants to compete on equal terms. So just like in the game of Monopoly, the goal is to crush your opponent and own the whole board.

This is why we’re kept in failing schools. This is why funding is pulled out of communities and its allowed to go to hell as soon as ‘we’ move in. This is why you keep getting shows like Shawty Lo and other esteem crushing indoctrinations through music and tv. It keeps you from being able to rise high enough to compete with your competitor on equal terms.

Blacks have to stop viewing the world through naive eyes, and realize ‘the game’ we’re actually playing. We’re like little 2 year olds trying to compete agaisnt adults playing chess. And that’s why we’re losing.
