(ThyBlackMan.com) During the last few weeks I have been back and forth to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and let me start by saying ” Black People , Get Out!!!! Stay Out of Pittsburgh.” With that being said, let’s get on with today’s topic. Many who know me personally know that I do not watch much TV, thanks to social media I’m able to get all the information I need without the media spin of white supremacy. This also allows me to gain access to brothers and sisters who are like minded and also hear from the Great Elders such as Dr.Frances Cress-Welsing, Dr. Amos Wilson and The Great Dr Khalid Abdul Muhammad, among others, who were blacked balled and left marginalized by the Lame Stream Media.
Due to systematic white supremacy men such as Dr.Claude Anderson were never mentioned in my school, neighborhood or church. Even though he is from the same type of neighborhood and environment as me and he came up with a perfect solution to get us out of the problems that we face economically. Dr Anderson concluded that if the black community focused on “Group Economics” , the buying and spending power within our community, that many of the ills we face socially would be changed because we would be in a better financial situation to better combat our enemies. This does not mean starting a million rap labels and worthless TV shows. This is focusing on businesses and infrastructure such as growing tomatoes and selling them in an open farmers market to all black residence or opening up a black supermarket and only doing business with black
farmers. This allows our dollars to change over in our community and it allows us to move in blocks , if we as a collective community tell people that we are not spending our money with them a lot of companies will be broke .Hell, ladies if you just cut your hair and put it in a bag and sold it you might have made a lot more money than you spent buying someone else’s hair.
And seeing as how black people are probably the number 1 purchaser of hair it would only make sense if we found a way to manufacture and make our own hair and process it. Its not like it won’t sell I know atleast three neighborhoods in PG County where I would be a millionaire. These types of topics will be covered in the documentary, done by brother Jason Black , called 7 a.m.
It should be out in theaters on January 22nd in select theaters across the nation and January 27th I know in Washington DC for sure. I recommend every brother and sister go see it because every bit of knowledge does help and if you don’t believe that this is exactly how we’re being worked against let me bring you to my next topic.
2 stores recently popped up last year here in Forestville ,Maryland ,a predominantly black suburb of Washington D.C., that raised my antennas to some bull but maybe soon to come to my neighborhood. They built a Dollar General and Roses right in the heart of my neighborhood. For those of you who do not know Dollar General, Roses, and Maxway are chains of stores owned by a Republican lobbyists from North Carolina named Art Pope. In a corporate letter he handed out, which you can verify by either googling what I just told you or YouTube Art Pope, Mr Pope devised a plan to put at least 25% of his Dollar General and low price stores in poor African American and Hispanic communities ,which if it ended there doesn’t sound too bad. The problem arises with the rest of the statement which states that they will use the money to fund the Republican Party in North Carolina and if you are not political you will not know that North Carolina has basically been resegragated as far as schools and disenfranchised as far as voting rights. Do you get what I’m saying folks?
Black people’s money is helping keep black people down! Black people who need help, Black people who are talented and gifted and want to go to better schools but don’t have the money to economically live in a closer neighborhood. And as of the last election all the money that we’re still pouring in from states all over the country are still helping keep low-wage workers working in the stores, with no hope of seeing a living working wage. Meanwhile their billionaire owner along with the billionaire corporation he owns live high on the hog and subscribed heavily to a system of white supremacy. Upon seeing and hearing what was going on in my neighborhood I decided to do something and contacted my local Congress and Council man and woman and explain to them that they
should be letting people in the neighborhood know that if they choose to spend that money with these establishment they could be risking the same thing happening in their town.
To my surprise many of the Congress men and women acted as if they didn’t know what I was speaking of. When I told them it was a matter of public record and you could pull it up some of the secretaries did and seemed genuinely upset. But unsurprisingly no one responded back.
It seriously bothered me that the stores were readily in many communities throughout the District, Maryland, Virginia area also how prevalent they were in racist Southern Maryland places like Waldorf, Upper Marlboro and places further in Calvert & St Mary’s County in Southern Maryland right about where John Wilkes Booth was from.
It also bothers me how ignorant many of us are to this information and when given this information we active changeing where we spend a dollar is not an option. I was asked “how do you know these people are racist and white supremacist?” I was told “I’m just making assumptions!”
Well!!!!
Just because I don’t believe in the god of my slave master does not mean I do not believe in a divinity which created US ALL and Created Black People First! Sometimes the Lord puts strong people in vicarious situation to see what they would do when faced with giving their people the truth. Would you choose personal salvation over the freedom of your nation? Would you mortgage away your son’s future for your present to be better?
My answer is simple I’m not fearing any man! Part of being a leader is never being scared to speak truth to power. During my lovely trip to
Pittsburgh I had the pleasure of having to move a lovely couple and their child to Tennessee. Of course you guys cant sense my sarcasm which is why I’m telling you I’m being sarcastic. I noticed as I was packing some of their items pictures of various Pittsburgh Steelers stars from yesterday and today. From Ben Roethlisberger to Terry Bradshaw from Mean Joe Greene to James Harrison it was a picture of either the wife the husband or their son with an NFL player.
Upon seeing the picture some of the guys who were with me began to relax thinking that because they saw pictures with black people that these people we’re not white supremacist. Although they never officially told us their name, insisted that we be out by a certain time every day, two things which normally never happens and coincidentally normally coincided with the time that their child would be home. Despite working under shaky circumstances me and the guys did what we normally do but I kept letting the fellas know these people subscribe to white supremacy. Of course I was met with criticism in the typical “all white people aren’t bad”by one of the more less informed brothers on our crew but as I believe it says in Scripture what is done in the dark will come to light. Because upon further inspection while packing their 12 year old sons closet items I ran across a few things that let me know I was right on track. the first to raise suspicion was the amount of books I saw on the Civil War.
Black people always be suspect of white people who study the Civil War and are fascinated with it, normally the side that lost is the only side concerned with the past. But as you look further in the closet you saw a Confederate encyclopedia (pictured here), which for black man who is enlightened and actually knows the roots of slavery that his family came from ,its kind of infuriating. But knowing the mind of my people I knew I needed more evidence and it wouldn’t take me long to find it because of course good ol Davy Crockett and Walt Clansman Disney showed up in the closet too. Blacks and Latinas can both agree it doesn’t get more racist then Walt Disney and Davy Crockett. But as brainwashed as my people is I know I still needed more evidence, which of course I found when grabbing one of his hats, which was of a gray color and had an old fashioned look to it with a button pinned to the front.
When I was about to pack the hat, I read what was on the button it read ” proud descendant of a Confederate soldier”!!! Upon seeing this I showed every member of the crew now we were all on the same page and knew we were surrounded by the enemy and had to get out. But being a wise general and investigative reporter it was a little more digging I had to do. So after a few more minutes I ran across a costume box and guide that’s it how to teach your child how to dress act and talk like a Confederate captain. I guess it was no need to say how to teach your caucasian child because no Black child could have ever been a Confederate captain. I was extremely frustrated and angry that I was now in a position of providing a service for an enemy of my people. I began to feel torn between doing what was right and doing my job.
Ultimately having to come to a median, where I would not lose my dignity for the sake of a dollar while still maintaining professionalism. And once again like a blessing from above coming to grips with that reality opened up one more door because I know most of you by now are thinking “what does this have to do with supporting white supremacy?” Well it’s simple while I was packing those rooms aand discovering each new item I was constantly being checked up on by the child’s grandfather ,the man of the house’s father. He expressed that we were very fast and very good movers especially considering the amount of stuff he said his son had moved several other time and he couldn’t recall it being as fast. I thanked him for his kind words and I asked where his son was because he wasn’t present during the whole move. He stated that he was in Tennessee at the new house and he was currently working for his new company. When I asked what company he was with the man stated ” He is head of human resources for Dollar General”
I said “Ohhhhhh!!!!! Art Pope G.O.P. sponsor, the guy who segregated schools in North Carolina”. Obviously bewildered by my reaction he replied “well I don’t know about all that”. Well I do and now you do too so please take this knowledge I am be more careful to do research about who you choose to do business with and how they choose to use your money. So in conclusion folks make sure you check the internet for the showtime of 7 a_m wake up call and go see it. Black people stay the hell out of Pittsburgh.
And last but certainly not least……Stop Funding White Supremacy!!!! And Coon Ass Charles Barkley too!!!!
