					<description><![CDATA[Rap musicians were warned if they wanted their music accepted and promoted the n-word...HAD to be included, no if ands or buts. Most disturbing is that in the beginning Black America could have put a stop to rap music...but REFUSED to do so.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) Unless you have control of your OWN mind, control of your destiny will be in the hands of others. No man is free who is not master of himself. This is why American enslavers made it a point to convert their slaves to Christianity. And the Arabs converted their 800-years slaves to Islam, in both cases, for the sole purpose of mind control. There certainly were no concerns about what happened to their souls after death. The implication that Arabs enslaved Africans for 800-years isn’t a typing error.</p>

<p>The Haitian Revolution 1791-1804. The Haitians may have been physically enslaved but NOT [mentally]. Unlike the American slaves who were both mentally and physically enslaved. Since the Haitians African [<em>Continuity</em>] had remained intact the Haitians were able to dominate and defeat three world superpowers France, England and Spain in battle and became the first Black Republic as a result. Being mentally emancipated made it possible for the Haitians to prevail.</p>
<p>Ancient Black Civilizations at one time ruled the world. They were a Spiritual group of people possessing vast Spiritual powers. Notice I didn’t say religious, I said they were [Spiritual].  No matter how much some of you may disagree…there is a difference…religion is manmade. There’s a video circulating showing a scene where Charlie Kirk is ascending some stairs where an image of Jesus Christ awaits to greet him. Think what you may, but to me the mind games are endless.</p>
<p>When you get a chance, do some research on the Dogon tribe of Africa. Without telescopes the white man has no idea what exists in outer space, yet this tribe talked about a planet which they knew existed almost a hundred years before white America discovered it with telescopes.</p>
<p>MAGA is trying to do all they can to eliminate any traces of Black History from the American education system, and it won’t be the first time it’s been done. Within the Vatican’s secret library lies concealed information about ancient Black Civilizations as well as within the Jewish Kabballah.</p>
<p>Self-knowledge is crucial because it enhances well-being, leads to better decision-making, fosters stronger relationships, and promotes personal growth by providing a deep understanding of our emotions, beliefs, strengths, and weaknesses. The only way to know ourselves is to know our history. It serves as a moral compass. The wealth of man is in his mind, in his consciousness, and for the past 400-years Black America’s consciousness has been deliberately impaired.</p>
<p>Malcolm X, before his untimely death was pursuing unification and mental liberation among Black African Americans. There is strength in numbers…but to this very day… Black Americans [refuse] to unite and see nothing wrong with how they think…as upside down and backwards it often is. Seeing ourselves as the n-word is a prime example.</p>
<p>How can Black people work out their own salvation? It involves a change in belief or mentality to be followed by a corresponding change in behavior…signifying a mental emancipation liberating Black people from the chain of traditional falsehood, which for centuries have incarcerated them in the prison of inferiority complex, world humiliation and insult. Embrace of the anathemas n-word is just one sign of self-hatred and mental imbalance.</p>
<p>China 80 years ago was a third world country, they kicked out the white man and eventually became a superpower, Africa is the exact opposite, Africa is the wealthiest continent on the planet, yet its indigenous people have millions dying from starvation. The white man’s handprints are all over Africa, as they extract the riches from the continent.</p>
<p><strong>UNITY:</strong> The BEST chance for survival belongs to the group that works <strong>TOGETHER </strong>along with the ability to determine their OWN fate and destiny. However, determining one’s own fate and destiny necessitates a [liberated] mind.</p>
<p>The shooting and killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk allows us to place the American society under a microscope. What is it about Kirks death that it commands the American flag to be flown at half-staff? His death wasn’t a national tragedy nor was he a government official. A voice was quiet from bestowing praise and glory upon the white race and belittling the Black race, Jews and LGBTQ, which is why White America is all bent out of shape. Then again having political and economic power allows one to advance their interest, influence policy and exert control.</p>
<p>What’s so disturbing is that if Charlie Kirk was a Black African American and was demeaning White America in the same manner all hell would have broken loose from the white community. It’s the atrocious hypocrisy and double standards of the American society that stinks to high heaven. It’s unfortunate that Kirks life was taken, and even more so unfortunate that people are losing their jobs for daring to express their opinions about his death. So much for freedom of speech, clearly there is no difference between the shooter and employers who fire their employees for speaking their minds about the incidence. Is America trying to replicate Hitler’s Nazi regime? Nevertheless, a society that’s based on lies and deception the truth is always reversed.</p>
<p>What’s the driving force behind Black and White America? We can begin by examining the priorities of both. Black America’s top three priorities are</p>
<p><em><strong>1.</strong></em> Jesus Christ</p>
<p><em><strong>2.</strong> </em>Jesus Christ</p>
<p>and</p>
<p><em><strong>3.</strong></em> Jesus Christ.  Black America is convinced that Jesus Christ is going to reappear and reward them for having been so faithful. Never mind the fact that over the past 2,000 years, Jesus Christ has yet to make his expected return. No ridicule intended, just merely an observation.</p>
<p>White America’s priorities are</p>
<p><em><strong>1.</strong> </em>Money/Power</p>
<p><em><strong>2.</strong></em> Firearms/Power</p>
<p><em><strong>3.</strong> </em>Power/Jesus Christ. Even though Christianity is a white man’s religion he isn’t waiting around for some mythical figure to do for him what he has been blessed with the power to do for himself. The question is what has been the key to his success? Answer: Blood! Behind the success of America lies a trail SOCKED in BLOOD. Between taking someone else’s land and then enslaving others to work the land he has exerted his free will to do as he pleases. Then there is his religion Christianity, which too leaves a trail [soaked in blood]. Christianity is the predominate religion throughout the world with Islam being second who too has a trail…soaked in blood.</p>
<p>It should be noted that all groups around the world have their own religion [except] for the Black race. Christianity and Islam are the two predominate religions within the group who at one time enslaved them, and the enslavers saw to it that they were converted. In Africa the two predominate religions for Blacks are Christianity and Islam.</p>
<p>When Malcolm X and MLK were assassinated, Black America has been leaderless ever since&#8230;by design&#8230;not by chance. The ruling class saw to it that there was nothing left to chance. During the 60s, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, expressed the sentiments of the white ruling class &#8220;that under NO CIRCUMSTANCES is the Negro community to ever be allowed to unite.&#8221;</p>
<p>Since then, the ruling class has surreptitiously controlled the leadership of the Black community, allowing musicians and athletes to step to the forefront. Hip-hop culture, rap music wasn&#8217;t happenstance&#8230;it was all by design. It&#8217;s unrelenting daily assault on the Black psyche is designed to corrupt Black Americans&#8217; sense of racial cohesion, mold the character of self-hatred, engender self-doubt, self-loathing and distrust among our group thus pulverizing Black unity and halting Black upward mobility. Use of the iniquitous n-word in rap music was of particular significance. The ruling class are masters at mind control and mind games. Something that Black America has fallen victim to for the past 400 years.</p>
<p>Rap musicians were warned if they wanted their music accepted and promoted the n-word&#8230;HAD to be included, no if ands or buts. Most disturbing is that in the beginning Black America could have put a stop to rap music&#8230;but REFUSED to do so. Black politicians, community leaders all are desensitized. If we as a community are going to overcome [anything], docility and passivity must be eradicated. Too many in the Black community are cerebrally anesthetized. Clarence Thomas, Byron Donalds, Tim Scott, Candace Owens serve as perfect examples.</p>
<p>Back in 1976, there was a young man by the name of Harold Rosenthal who was the Senior Administrative Assistant to the then Senator Jacob Javits of New York. Rosenthal took part in a paid interview exposing certain aspects of the “inner invisible world” of Jewry, revealed the modes and tactics Jews have used in destroying Christian civilization and overtly attaining control over lives and governments. If you want to read the revealing contents about this incredible interview, please click onto the following link<strong>:</strong></p>

<p>Unfortunately, for Mr. Rosenthal, though he was paid handsomely for the interview, it cost him his life. Days after the interview he ended up being killed with a bullet hole in his head. I read the interview<strong>;</strong> it’s explosive and little wonder it cost him his life.  However, be forewarned the interview is rather lengthy and isn’t a quick read.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Accordingly, the ruling class does not bring Black/African Americans closer together but conveniently extracts the unity destroying the ability to thrive as a unit.

How can Black people work out their own salvation? It involves a change in belief or mentality to be followed by a corresponding change in behavior…signifying a mental emancipation liberating Black people from the chain of traditional falsehood, which for centuries have incarcerated them in the prison of inferiority complex, world humiliation and insult.   ]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) The rhetorical contrast of Democrats and Republicans…is akin to a sly wily fox (Dem)…the other an inimical wolf (GOP). The appetites and motives are the same, only their mannerisms and methods differ. It takes discernment and acumen to see through the illusions that there is no difference between the two parties. <em><a href="http://thyblackman.com">Black conservatives</a></em> unabashedly aligning themselves to the tenets of the Republican party are unimaginative, shortsighted and mindless.</p>
<p>The most basic tenet of Black conservatism is a deep-seated respect albeit quixotic for the culture and institution of an ambivalent, conflicted American society; and the related conviction and insistence that African Americans…though void of self-empowerment… has a place within the American society.</p>
<p>They accept the present with the conviction and hope that things will get better thus present circumstances are accepted though not necessarily enjoyed<em>.</em> This usually has entailed an acceptance of a subordinate and second-class status…with the hope…that things will get better. This is generally called accommodationist which is what Black Conservatives are.</p>
<p>Other words Black conservatives believe if they play by GOP rules and prove their worthiness according to GOP standards, their oppressor will have no choice but to accommodate and acknowledge their equality. This myopic view of the political landscape lends to their being <img decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-80124" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/123-blackCONSERVATIVES-300x246.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="246" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/123-blackCONSERVATIVES-300x246.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/123-blackCONSERVATIVES.jpg 429w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />anywhere from malleable to preposterous. Though there are many, leading the retinue are Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Candace Owens, Larry Elder and Terrence Williams. Rev. Peterson is also on record saying that it was a blessing for Black/African Americans to have been enslaved.</p>
<p>Black conservatives place their focus on individual achievement rather than on group self-determination, however, this doesn’t mean that they are indifferent to racism. A crucial corollary is the conviction of the ultimate benevolence of the American social order and the belief that racial caste system will ultimately prove ephemeral. Racism tarnishes what America has been and can be, but what is valuable is America can, and will be separated from its terrible legacy…<em>so they tend to believe</em>.</p>
<p>Their focus is on individual accomplishments in the face of obstacles rather than emphasizing group hardships of the past or proposing a radical new restructuring of society. Their greatest hope is to be like their oppressor as opposed to liberating themselves. They are content with being imitators as opposed to innovators.</p>
<p>The idiosyncrasy that’s most characteristic of black conservatives, though they may acknowledge the racism of white America<strong>…</strong>is primarily directed toward black folk<strong>…</strong>is a self-critique of failure of black people to take full advantage of their opportunities. Blaming African Americans for any slothfulness, dissipation, parochialism, and reliance on panaceas; seeing inner city Black people as solely responsible for their own deprivation, impetuously chasing the symptoms…while disdaining…the primary causes. Giving credence to the mindset of their white counterparts refusing to acknowledge the effects of systemic discrimination.</p>
<p>It is a central tenet in almost all forms of Black conservatism that, however important political and legal action may be the most effective and most lasting strategy for collective advancement is through the multiplication of <em>individual </em>stories of success.</p>
<p>George Schuyler, an iconoclastic figure of the Harlem Renaissance, was outraged by the Civil Rights Movement. He felt it had tarred the achievements of the Black middle class by focusing on Black failures and that its followers were dupes for anti-American Communist propaganda. Like other <em>eternal optimistic</em> Black conservatives, he believed that Black folk had to accommodate themselves to the dominant mores and institutions of American society or be destroyed; that pushing too hard to create change would lead to disaster.</p>
<p>When the institutionalized systemic acquiesce to doing something for Black America, do we ever bother to notice that they are not giving up any of their power in the process?    Black conservatives are very uncomfortable rocking the boat, reluctant to agitate their oppressor, which…definitively…<em>is the only way</em> social change will ever come about.</p>
<p>It runs so deep the oppressor feel they have the right to arbitrate on and decide on the degree to which another group is oppressed.  Privilege is exactly that having the power to decide right and wrong and where responsibility lies and most importantly, who can suffer.  What is the difference between this hypocrisy, and that of the slave holder of yesteryear, who tightly held the keys to the shackles while laughing that his property enjoys their enslavement?</p>
<p>The white population is approximately 10% of the world population yet control 80% of the world’s economic resources, and in control of the other 90% of the world’s population. This becomes possible when you can maintain the larger populations in a state of false consciousness, a state of deception and by outright lying…the falsification of reality. You cannot acquiesce to an interlocking system whose purpose is to maintain your subjugation, at interpersonal, personal and cultural levels. Your job is to liberate yourself not to be in…<em>mindless compliance</em>.</p>
<p>The systemic must by necessity…recruit and control those from within the Black community…to try and help rule all the others e.g. Rev. Peterson. In a society that’s based on lies and deception…the truth is always reversed…to which impaired consciousness falls victim to.</p>
<p>Black conservatives go along with the notion that President Lincoln’s 1863 signing of the Emancipation Proclamation freeing the slaves was a benevolent act; when the true purpose was about the safety of White America…to stem the tide of slave revolts. Lincoln once stated:  “If I could save the Union without freeing any slaves, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others I would also do that.”</p>
<p>Lincoln didn’t believe Black people were equal to white people and went on to say that white people should be given the superior position in society. He further stated that white position shouldn’t be a matter of hard work or effort but rather he wanted the white position in society to be…guaranteed by the state.</p>
<p>When Grant…a Republican…became President, he pursued an ethnic cleansing campaign by attempting to annex Haiti to send all recently freed slaves there for the purpose of reinstituting <em>chattel slavery</em>.  Abolitionist Wendell Phillips and Senator Charles Sumner fought against this diabolical plan…thus due to their efforts…in 1870 the Senate failed by one vote to ratify the bill, sending President Grant in a fit of rage, and Senator Charles Sumner subsequently beaten by a fellow senator with a cane.</p>
<p>America’s policies are no different today for African Americans than what they were 157 years ago or when the Ronald Reagan’s administration flooded the Black community with crack cocaine in order to fund his illegal war in Nicaragua. That one action destroyed millions of Black lives, and presently still having a negative impact on many African Americans.</p>
<p>Reagan’s administration had other xenophobia strategies in place as well: Never speak ill of Black people in public. Only speak the negative when you know where you are and who you are with. ALWAYS put your personal self-interest <em>before justice</em> for Black folk. Incredulously Black conservatives are supportive of all that the GOP stands for which is against the psychological and spiritual liberation of Black people.</p>
<p>Oppression cannot be overcome by simultaneously sympathizing with the oppressor. Being afraid to meet obstacles head on as a UNIFIED group is sympathizing with the oppressor…clearly Black conservatives are displaying symptoms of…Stockholm Syndrome.</p>
<p>A hidden truth is that although the United States Government portrays itself as the leading ethical and moral authority of the world and professes equal rights for all American citizens, its oldest and most important objective has always been an unyielding commitment towards the preservation of its White dominance and control.</p>
<p>This objective has always directly correlated with the necessity to suppress the advancement and growth of its Black population. Because if the U.S. government treated its Black population in a manner which does not promote its interest of maintaining White dominance and control…this would render the U.S. Government diametrically in opposition to itself. Therefore, it surreptitiously uses every conceivable means and opportunity to suppress its Black population; even those that trample upon its own stated ethical values.</p>
<p>Accordingly, the ruling class does not bring Black/African Americans closer together but conveniently extracts the unity destroying the ability to thrive as a unit.</p>
<p>How can Black people work out their own salvation? It involves a change in belief or mentality to be followed by a corresponding change in behavior…signifying a mental emancipation liberating Black people from the chain of traditional falsehood, which for centuries have incarcerated them in the prison of inferiority complex, world humiliation and insult.</p>
<p>All things are possible! Who…you are is limited only by…<em>who you think you are</em>? <em>  </em></p>

					<description><![CDATA[Usage of the N-word and other problems that exist in the black community today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them, thus if we are to rise and overcome, we are going to have cure ourselves. To overcome we must first understand that our pathologies are not inherent but a societal trauma being transferred from one generation to another…a legacy of a self-generating, self-refueling slave mentality. Once we can acknowledge how we have been hoodwinked and bamboozled we can then proceed to take on the task of…mental liberation.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) The N-word…n**ger/n**ga…400-year-old deleterious history serves as an example of a symbol too strong, too powerful, and too negative to be trivialized as just simply…another word…an ambiguity that some in the <em><a href="http://thyblackman.com">black community</a></em> naively try to peddle, insinuating that it’s normal behavior for African Americans to adhere to an 18<sup>th</sup> century slave mentality. Shackles that have yet to be broken!</p>
<p>Consequently, younger generations have grown up in a society that has used the word as common language their entire live, they seem to have become desensitized to the term…and ignorantly use it…not knowing they are foolishly carrying out a 400-year-old plight. Just because they have heard it used their whole live…doesn’t make use of the term right…nor does it downplay or eradicate its effect. Similarly, just because one grows up in a house with an alcoholic parent, then as an adult they drink alcohol their whole life…picking up the habit from their parent…doesn’t make the activity right nor does it downplay its effect…one can end up with cirrhosis of the liver and die.</p>
<p>In lieu of the N-word’s derogatory and denigrating history, many Black/African Americans/ADOS (<em>American Descendants of Slavery</em>), have continually uplifted the N-word, protected it like a mother instinctively shields her newborn, and place it high on an altar as if the idiom is something in which to be proud of.<img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-88929" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/NIGGER-300x298.png" alt="" width="274" height="272" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/NIGGER-300x298.png 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/NIGGER-150x150.png 150w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/NIGGER-144x144.png 144w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/NIGGER.png 394w" sizes="(max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px" /></p>
<p>African Americans from all walks of life ranging from doctorate degree owners, academia professionals, ministers, politicians, corporate executives, to ill-educated people share a commonality when it comes to the odious N-word. They are mesmerized by its hypnotic influence!  Some pseudo-intellectuals look at the history of race and the term n**ga as a basis for being proponents of its usage.</p>
<p>They contend that White people have used it as an instrument of fear and inferiority for years, while Black folk have taken the term and supposedly transformed it into a cultural construction that should only be used by Black people. Incredulously, only African Americans/ADOS are encouraged to accept oppressor-created labels of hatred and marginalization as a degenerate lifestyle. No other group on the face of this planet is expected nor is asked…to adhere to such deviant behavior.</p>
<p>Certainly not all Black/African Americans use the pejorative term, however far too many…who don’t use the word…panders to those who do. Refusal to speak out against its use make them an accomplice, lacking the intestinal fortitude, to defend the sacred memories of their ancestors…displaying a lack of appreciation…for their ancestor’s trials, tribulations, struggles and sacrifices.</p>
<p>Black institutions, churches, schools, families and other social organizations, must assert themselves regarding problems facing Black America. They must establish and promote codes of conduct to protect their community from black anti-social and dysfunctional behavior. These foundation institutions should cooperatively use a variety of social tools to persuade members of the Black race to comply with certain behavior standards. Non-usage of the mind controlling N-word should be at the top of the list.</p>
<p>The lyrics of rap music promoting crime, violence, drugs, misogyny and use of the N-word are subliminal messages for self-destruction and mental decay, responsible for misguiding and misleading generations of young minds. Black-on-black crime is rampant and out of control, and to overlook the influence of rap music in all of this is a grave and egregious error, as many of our young black males have been influenced to look upon going to prison as a “<em>badge of honor</em>”.</p>
<p>Embrace of the incorrigible term trivializes, disrespects and curses the hallow memories, struggles and sacrifices of our ancestors. The blood of our ancestors cries out in anguish…but their voices are muted…by callous, self-centered, non-caring, ungrateful ADOS. Usage trivializes the suffering of those who came before us and built this country with no pay, no credit…not even a thank you or apology. Thanks to rap music the entire world now makes a mockery of our ascendant’s experiences relegating their cataclysmic history to the dumpster of insignificance and triviality.</p>
<p>Some of you find it more offense to be referred to as…African American or Black. Raising a raucous over usage but when it comes to use of the most combustible and repugnant word in the English language the N-word (<em>n**ga</em>)…your silence is deafening…choosing to ignore the elephant in the room; which make about as much sense as using a match to see if your gas tank is empty.</p>
<p>To a lesser extend there are many capable and brilliant young minds who are not searching for pseudo-intellectual reasons to refer to themselves or any member of their race as a n**ga but their voices are muted. Contrarily…voices generally heard through main-stream media…are those who are proponents of the N-word further demonstrating the lack of insensitivity, sense and appreciation of the titanic battles that our ancestry had to overcome.</p>
<p>It is an international embarrassment that rappers liberally use the N-word in their music and we the amenable black community (ADOS) passively condone it e.g. “<em>N**gas In Paris</em>.” The international community find it mind boggling that African Americans <em>willingly</em> degrade each other in such a fashion.</p>
<p>The barely conscious will unabashedly argue that there are greater things to worry about than black folk use of the N-word.  But I ask you:  Aside from mental enslavement, what’s a greater concern than the demolition of Black folk image on the world stage? As you view yourself…others do as well! Don’t like being called the N-word by…non-black people? Then set the right example for others to follow. STOP using the egregious term yourself…become accountable and responsible…for your OWN actions.</p>
<p>We also, need to stop insulting one another’s intelligence with the “<em>a</em>” vs the “<em>er</em>” nonsense. N**ga is ghetto vernacular for n**ger…there ISN’T…any difference between the two.  We too can stop with the lie that black folks don’t use the N-word in a negative and degrading fashion…when it’s done every minute of the day. Everyday African American parents vehemently denigrate their own children with usage of the term. This is NOT love…it’s emotions of hatred and self-hatred.</p>
<p>There’s a saying “<em>run over me once shame on you, run over me twice shame on me</em>.” Black America is about to be ran over for a second time. Come fall of 2020, Aaron McGruder’s TV animated series “The Boondocks” which was discontinued in 2014…will be revived. Kevin Reilly, the Chief Content Officer for HBO Max, and President of truTV, TBS and TNT announced that the series has been inked for a two-season deal beginning fall 2020.</p>
<p>Why should Black/African Americans be concerned?  Boondocks serves as a further assault on the image of Black/African Americans carrying on the tradition of subversive black comedy comparable to Amos’ N Andy and minstrelsy in general. Albeit “Boondocks” perpetuates a negative imagery of Black/African Americans its linguistic usage of the N-word is far more disconcerting as it is…subversive and counter-productive…the nadir of defamation and mind control.  In a nutshell, “Boondocks” serves as: Unconscious programming! Subliminal indoctrination!</p>
<p>Aaron McGruder’s usage of the term is self-hatred masquerading as caustic satire.  What’s truly annoying is that pseudo intellectuals will vigorously defend use of the N-word in “Boondocks” under the guise of <em>artistic license,</em> they’ll contend that opposition to such is “anti-intellectual”.</p>
<p>Black/African Americans who honor and respect the sacred, hallow memories of their beloved ancestors, will refuse to compromise their values, integrity, loyalty, humanity by surrendering to quixotic mundane values as <em>artistic license</em>.  We instead opt to follow our internal compass and do the right thing…by disavowing usage of a term…that dehumanized and objectified our ascendants, and serves as a self-refueling, self-generating psychological conduit to mental enslavement.</p>
<p>Accordingly, Black folk instead must be committed to moving towards mutually benefitted goals. Activities must contribute to building a strong sense of peoplehood and commitment to the acculturation principals of taking care of one’s self, one’s family and one’s race.  Presently, Black America is void of social accountability policies and enforcements devices, thus people with the mentality of rappers and an Aaron McGruder have the license and freedom to act as proxies for our oppressor.</p>
<p>What is a sense of community and why is it important<strong>? </strong>A sense of community is collective thinking. Seeing and behaving as WE and not as ME. This requires new, bold Black leadership someone capable of establishing a national vision and articulate an acceptable code of conduct and behavior.</p>
<p>Forewarning, whenever you hear a white man refer to a black man as a responsible leader, he means someone who is responsible to him.  The white man will promote a docile black leader as opposed to promoting a non-conformist in order to hold the masses of black people in check, keep them in his grasp, and under his control. Black America must not…<em>continually</em>…allow itself to be deceived by following black quasi-leaders.</p>
<p>Black/African Americans have a choice to make either chose the path of Ascension into the Light or continue to give power to the sinister forces of the Dark whose leading us into a headlong rush over the cliff’s edge of death and destruction.  For those of us who chose the path of Light, no longer will Dark Forces be able to control us with their deception; proliferating our consciousness with their deceit, deception and lies. Clear our consciousness…and our true historical links with the past…will be made known.</p>
<p>Usage of the N-word and other problems that exist in the black community today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them, thus if we are to rise and overcome, <em>we are going to have cure ourselves</em>. To overcome we must first understand that our pathologies are not inherent but a societal trauma being transferred from one generation to another…a legacy of a self-generating, self-refueling slave mentality. Once we can acknowledge how we have been hoodwinked and bamboozled we can then proceed to take on the task of…mental liberation.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Whereas, we are deserving of reparations let’s not be stuck on stupid.

For 400 years we’ve been anesthetized…time to WAKE UP.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) Jews, Japanese, Filipinos, Native Americans have all received reparations.</p>
<p>If there has ever been a group entitled it’s <em><a href="http://thyblackman.com">Black/African Americans</a></em> the government reneged on the 40 acres and a mule leaving an unpaid debt, however, let’s not get it twisted…reparations…aren’t the end all, be all. On the premise reparations are paid…social injustices…ISN’T going to just melt away.  <em>T</em>he American system is fundamentally corrupt and doesn’t function to accept nor treat Black/African Americans as equals and in some instances not as humans…which make it highly unlikely…reparations will ever be paid.</p>
<p>One of the main reasons the Japanese rose from conquest they refuse to let their conqueror take away from them their self-confidence and their idea of Spirituality as they conceived it to be. No people will ever be free if they worship a Deity assigned to them by another people.</p>
<p>Accordingly, African Americans have been conditioned to be more committed to fables, lies and fantasy…than facts, truth and reality…which is a tremendous problem. The reality is if reparations are awarded it will only prove to be a band-aid not a panacea.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-85871" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/reparations_02-845-300x142.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="142" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/reparations_02-845-300x142.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/reparations_02-845-768x364.jpg 768w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/reparations_02-845.jpg 845w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p>
<p>For the American system to maintain dominance it is a political necessity for us as black people to be out of our minds. We can only be exploited…if we are basically…out of our minds. Nobody voluntarily gives you your freedom back, the only way you get it back is to TAKE it. We pursue reparations but NEVER talk about…taking back…control of our MINDS. Control was taking away more than 400 years ago…and we have NEVER been de-programmed. Either we de-program each other or it doesn’t get done.</p>
<p>Social ills of Black America i.e., black on black crime, misogyny, self-hatred, one parent family, drugs, ravages of mass incarceration and a racially biased criminal justice system can all be traced back to a manipulative, corrupt and mentally abusive so-called Christian society spanning over a period of more than 400 years. We need to be mindful that reparations alone isn’t going to resolve any of this.</p>
<p>To finagle one’s way to success, wealth and fame in a white dominant society often requires engaging in the death and damnation of other black people; you must be against the interest of your own people. Individual wealth…isn’t a threat…whereas, group wealth is, therefore, any attempts at trying to reach back to help can and will bring about dire consequences. When you look at the societal pathologies of the black community ask yourself one question, where is the black leadership? We basically have the same black leadership that we’ve had for the past 50 years…it’s time to start questioning the validity of that leadership. Not since MLK and Malcolm X have we had effective black leadership…this isn’t accidental.</p>
<p>We must not become complacent and blinded by the historical unprecedented election of America&#8217;s first black president and other individual accomplishments that reflect only about 1% of our population.</p>
<p>Other than the debased culture of hip-hop, which encourages the death and damnation of black people…black folk as a group…haven’t created anything of value in this modern-day world. Rap music, poverty and pop-culture celebrities combines to create an alluring &#8220;cool-poise culture of self-destructive behaviors.&#8221;  White supremacy is most effective when it uses black voices as ventriloquists. The mind-numbing antics of hip hop is embarrassing and disturbing creating young generations who are presently misguided, misled and misinformed, not tuned into reality…this isn’t a coincidence…it’s all by design.</p>
<p>Accordingly, African Americans live with entrenched inequalities: greater poverty, greater unemployment and lower life spans. African American men are more likely to be stopped by police, more likely to be searched if stopped, more likely to be jailed if detained, more likely to experience brutality or being shot by police.</p>
<p>To overcome we must first understand that our pathologies are not inherent but is transgenerational societal trauma transferred from one generation to another, a legacy of a self-generating, self-refueling slave mentality. Once we can acknowledge how we have been hoodwinked and bamboozled we can then proceed to take on the task of mental liberation.</p>
<p>America&#8217;s 400 plus years of economically exploiting and suppressing its Black population has never been abandoned, but instead were reincarnated into a more sophisticated contemporary and stealthy design, that provides a more socially acceptable means to covertly control and suppress the advancement of its African American population. Unless the masses of Black people are made more aware of America&#8217;s true ruling elites and their modern methods and practices of economically exploiting and suppressing its Black population…nothing will ever change.</p>
<p>Black America—as a group—have been systemically locked into a no-win situation. For more than 400 years all the wealth and power in this country have been methodically directed into the hands of the majority white society. Controlling almost 100% of the income, wealth, power, businesses, resources, privileges, and all levels of government. Black America have been socially engineered into a position of that of a permanent under-class and the world look at us in bewilderment puzzled as to why we haven’t… as a group…been able to do better?</p>
<p>How can we as black people work out our own salvation? It involves a change in belief or mentality to be followed by a corresponding change in behavior…signifying a <em>mental emancipation</em> liberating us from the chain of traditional falsehood, which for centuries have incarcerated us in the prison of inferiority complex, world humiliation and insult. It’s the falsehoods that causes us to be divided against ourselves, and it is because of the systematic attention to propaganda that we’ve been able to be injured as we have. We don’t understand the nature of the battle that we are in because we aren’t privileged to the big picture. <strong> </strong></p>
<p>Black/African Americans are looked upon as being less than human, hence the categorization of being labeled the N-word n**ger/n**ga. It serves as an example of a symbol too strong, too powerful and too negative to be trivialized; it drills the message that African Americans are powerless, of lesser moral, and intelligence<strong>, </strong>that we need whites to govern over our lives. Furthermore, it totally detaches us from our sense of power and reality. Referring to one another as such validates to white people that they are justifiable in their mistreatment of us.</p>
<p>This isn’t hyperbole it is history. Before our lives can matter to anyone else…they must first… matter to us. That mean our choices must matter and stop being afraid to hold each other responsible and accountable for our own actions.</p>
<p>Why aren&#8217;t we making more progress? Why are our schools declining? Why is the economic gap growing and not closing? Why are our communities in decline…ravaged by crime, homelessness and despair? How is it that our &#8220;spending power&#8221; exceeds many nations, but is not directed at solving our problems?</p>
<p>Reparations are fine but ultimately black people salvation lies in…self-determination/ unification…not in the good will of other people, not in the love of other people, not in laws on the books.  <strong> </strong></p>
<p>This is done by not being afraid to read taking it upon ourselves to study the history of our enslaved ancestors all they had to endure, and the manipulative methods, techniques used by slave masters to corrupt and pollute our minds none of which is taught in our educational institutions…keeping us dumbed down.  Question need to be asked, who benefits from these omissions? Certainly not black folk!</p>
<p>We as African Americans are denied an…educational system and media reports… that give us accurate information, both historically and at present, reflecting the U.S. governments relationship with us; therefore, most are totally oblivious of the true fundamental core character of this existing relationship.</p>
<p>A hidden truth is that although America portrays itself as the leading ethical and moral authority of the world and professes equal rights for all American citizens, its oldest and most important objective has always been an unyielding commitment towards the preservation of its White dominance and control. Meritorious Manumission serves as a comprehensive and effective system reassuring maintenance of such control.</p>
<p>After centuries of having been remade we’ve lost knowledge of self.  Many Black/African Americans are lacking in mental and intestinal fortitude to the point they consent to their own domination. They are scared, intimidated, often lacking the courage to challenge questionable positions taking by the oppressor yielding to Meritorious Manumission serving as an invisible enemy a pariah within the black community. Black America is fragmented and divided…all by design. Divide and Conquer!</p>
<p>From slavery to the present, African Americans have undeniably borne an unprecedented amount of suffering and mistreatment by the American government.  However, so many of us have forgotten or repressed so much of these maltreatments and have, instead, come to accept the favorable-but-false perpetuated American Institutionalized Systemic that represents everything the systemic never were…and still are not…in place of the truth.</p>
<p>Whereas, we are deserving of reparations let’s not be stuck on stupid. The most precious endowment we can be blessed with is taken back the freedom to think for ourselves, to assume that you already have that freedom is an egregious misconception. For 400 years we’ve been anesthetized…time to WAKE UP.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Therefore, demanding respect and reparations while simultaneously disrespecting and undermining their OWN ancestors…anathematizing them by tolerating use of the immoral N-word…the entire process becomes sanctimonious wreaking of hypocrisy, making it a farce and a sham; for should reparations ever be granted under such circumstances…it would be…nefarious blood money.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) Life asked death: &#8220;Why do people love me but hate you?&#8221; Death said: &#8220;Because you are a beautiful lie and I&#8217;m the painful truth.&#8221;</p>
<p>No more shall the dark practice their deception and proliferate the world with their deception and lies. It is time for the full truth to come out, and eventually only the truth will exist. ADOS true historical links with the past will be made known, and of it there will be no doubt…as it all exists in the Now.</p>
<p>ADOS movement represents a strong push for respect and reparations…rightfully so.  Indeed, reparations are long overdue. All other groups have received reparations for past wrong doings. Jews, Native Americans, Japanese, Filipinos, etc. have all been compensated, but ironically enough ADOS have yet to receive reparations for the 300-year <em><a href="http://ThyBlackMan.com">African-American Holocaust</a></em> (dwindling to an end during the 1960s), 100 years later after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.</p>
<p>During the 300-year AA Holocaust millions of&#8230;men, women, AND children&#8230;were ostracized, terrorized, beaten, mutilated, disemboweled, lynched, raped, boiled and burned alive, castrated and murdered.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-82781" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/ADOS-AmericanDescendantsOfSlaves-2019-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="277" height="208" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/ADOS-AmericanDescendantsOfSlaves-2019-300x225.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/ADOS-AmericanDescendantsOfSlaves-2019.jpg 480w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 277px) 100vw, 277px" /></p>
<p>Consequently, all the wealth and power in this country have been dispensed over 400 years systemically into the hands of the white society.  African-Americans don’t own a significant amount of anything to be able to control their lives; America’s majority control almost 100% of the income, wealth, power, the resources, privileges and all levels of government…making it impossible for ADOS as a group to compete.</p>
<p>Grim reality: Symptoms of pathological issues in the black community such as drug related crimes, fatherless homes, unwed teen-age parents, welfare, poverty, black on black crime, etc. are laid directly at the doorsteps of the black community to shoulder the blame; but what’s never addressed is the CAUSE of these symptoms. The grim reality is that the black community have been locked into a NO WIN situation. Without question if any group is entitled to reparations it is the ADOS.</p>
<p>However, there is another painful truth which needs to be addressed. All other groups, Jews, Native Americans, Asians, etc., revere, honor and demonstrate respect for their ancestors. They understand their ancestors were human and had the same emotions they now have. They understand there is no separation between body, mind and spirit and that…respect for their ancestors…is respect for themselves.</p>
<p>ADOS are remiss of this understanding. They fail to understand or appreciate the sacrifices our ancestors made, and the opportunities made available to us as a result of those…sacrifices and struggles. ADOS are the ONLY group in the entire world who aggressively use oppressor-created labels of hatred and marginalization as &#8220;terms of endearment&#8221; when other groups eschew similar labels.</p>
<p>Embrace of the N-word trivializes, disrespects and curses the hallow memories, struggles and sacrifices of our ancestors. The blood of our ancestors cries out in anguish…but their voices are muted…by callous, self-centered, non-caring, ungrateful descendants. Usage trivializes the suffering of those who came before us and built this country with no pay, no credit…not even a thanks or apology.</p>
<p>Self-internalization of the N-word excuses modern day social injustice and the dehumanization of racism; embracing it grants police brutality tacit approval, gives a nod to those who say that racism doesn’t exist and allows it to perpetuate, sanctioning any and all atrocities administered to our ascendants during the Holocaust.</p>
<p>It begs the question, what is the TRUE motivating factor, behind ADOS claiming the most profane, ungodly, immoral, racist term in the English language, the N-word, as a so-called “term of endearment?” A term that brought fear, terror, horror, bloodshed and carnage into the lives of our ancestors. Mental enslavement is the answer!</p>
<p>American slave-masters paid a great deal of attention to the education and training of the ideal slave<strong>,</strong> these draconian methods weren’t administered to slaves anywhere else in the Americas. In general, there were five steps in molding the character of American slaves: strict discipline, a sense of his supposedly own inferiority, belief in the master&#8217;s supposedly superior power, acceptance of the master&#8217;s standards, and, finally, a deep sense of his own helplessness and dependency which meant a new self-image had to be created.</p>
<p>At every point this education was built on the belief in white superiority and black inferiority. This was and is the psychological purpose of browbeating our ancestors into submission…to use and accept usage…of the N-word. Though today viewed simply as a racial slur, it’s intent and purpose is far more noxious and sinister, it serves as a self-refueling, self-generating psychological conduit to…mental enslavement. To assume otherwise will prove to be a gross error in judgement.</p>
<p>ADOS ascendants were stripped of their identity, given a new name, and a new image to envision him/herself, and their African heritage as inferior and barbaric. Slave- masters insisted on total obedience and created a situation of utter dependency, this methodology of mind control created infantile and self-hatred characteristics branding the negative image of the N-word into the heart, mind and soul of a race of people to last for centuries to come.</p>
<p>Today not all African-Americans use the pejorative term, nonetheless, far too many do. And those who don’t many of them deal with the impropriety usage of the N-word by looking the other way, feigning ignorance.</p>
<p>Indifference is the epitome of evil. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented we owe it to our ancestors to hold their struggles and sacrifices in the highest of esteem and not embrace the very word that dehumanized and objectified them…the N word…looking upon it as some so-called “term of endearment.”</p>
<p>When ADOS support rappers and entertainers that humiliate and degrade their own race, in essence, that individual is participating in <em><a href="http://www.ferris.edu/jimcrow/caricature">cultural genocide</a></em>. That supporter is contributing to the emotional, psychological, spiritual, and cultural extermination of the Black race. <strong> </strong>These mentally, emotionally, misguided scarred descendants of slavery are so severely psychologically disturbed they assume that they can change the context of history, the 400-year history behind the N-word is immutable.</p>
<p>Albeit, man can change the definition of a word on a whim, he cannot change…the history…behind the word. If by chance someone has the ability by some sort of miracle to obliterate the wrongs done against our ancestors all in the name of the N-word, restore life to those dehumanized, murdered, butchered, slaughtered, honor to the dishonored, property to those who have been wronged and force the scales of human and divine justice to recover their equilibrium then and ONLY then perhaps the N-word can be embraced and used endearingly. Unless such a task can be accomplished the N-word will eternally remain to be an immoral obscenity no matter whose mouth it flows from and their so-called intentions.</p>
<p>For the America systemic to maintain itself it is a political necessity that black people continually prove to be out of their minds. ADOS personality, behavior, lexicon, were shaped exclusively by the unique form of American slavery. To maintain status quo, contemporary MSM, music and motion picture industries, political parties, etc., all serve as agent provocateurs.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, hope springs eternal as a small percentage of us have managed to maintain some sense of individuality, mental and intestinal fortitude escaping the clutches of mental enslavement to the N-word. The oppressor greatest fear is that some day we as a group will be able to galvanize and mobilize our energy to overcome. The 60s <em>Civil Rights Movement </em>gave them quite a scare, but we have since retrogressed.</p>
<p>Physical and mental enslavement…of the two…mental enslavement is the worst form of slavery because the chains are invisible. Though physical chains were removed, mental chains remain intact. The American academia system provide nominal knowledge about physical enslavement…America’s darkest moment in time…but conclusively ignore the dehumanizing and mental terrorism process employed during slavery and make no mentioning of an African-American Holocaust. If you aren’t aware of a problem there’ll be no conscious attempt to try and overcome. Such a dilemma benefits the oppressor and is an impediment to those victimized.</p>
<p>Should ADOS refuse to denounce usage of the N-word…they by default would be accepting the total description of it…sanctioning the evil deeds and carnage perpetrated upon our race…past, present and future.</p>
<p>Therefore, demanding respect and reparations while simultaneously disrespecting and undermining their OWN ancestors…anathematizing them by tolerating use of the immoral N-word…the entire process becomes sanctimonious wreaking of hypocrisy, making it a farce and a sham; for should reparations ever be granted under such circumstances…it would be…nefarious blood money.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[This is why Minister Farrakhan is feared…he doesn’t beg…and can’t be controlled or manipulated. To affect change white folks HAVE to be agitated.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) “<em>Powerful people never have to prove anything to anyone. And by extension, powerful people never apologize to powerless people for the actions they take in order to remain in power. Powerful people never teach powerless people how to take their power away from them</em>.” ~ John Henrik Clarke</p>
<p>American Jewish leaders expressed outrage over the place of honor given to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral on Friday, September 1, 2018. Farrakhan was seated in the front row alongside other dignitaries, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and former president Bill Clinton. Jewish leaders who paint Farrakhan as an unapologetic anti-Semite were appalled. Question is, who do they think they are to question his presence at a Black function? This is tantamount to a parent chiding and chastising grown children. Such perverse and supercilious attitude is not to be taking lightly, ipso facto, we must scrutinize what’s really behind the accusations that Farrakhan is an anti-Semite? <strong> <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-79390" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Louis-Farrakhan-300x225.png" alt="" width="246" height="184" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Louis-Farrakhan-300x225.png 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Louis-Farrakhan-768x576.png 768w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Louis-Farrakhan.png 826w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 246px) 100vw, 246px" /></strong></p>
<p>The words <em>hate speech</em> have been historically used to malign, denigrate, castigate, anyone who speaks on any issue that white folks or Jews don’t want to be held accountable for.</p>
<p>Accordingly, the perverse purpose behind the Jewish community’s painting of Farrakhan as an anti-Semitic need to be exposed. Let’s first establish what a Semitic is. Not all Jews are Semitic, in fact the majority who claim to be Jewish are not Semitic…they are European Jews…whose culture and heritage is that of the Khazar Empire and are now referred to as Zionist who in truth are impersonating Jews. It is the Zionist (European Jews) who control Israel. It is the Zionist who labels Farrakhan as anti-Semitic. Jewish people who have supported the black community against exploitation and oppression were and are Semitic Jews, and don’t necessarily refer to Farrakhan as anti-Semitic.</p>
<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iF7RPdzyzbg</p>
<p>Black people of any prominence who openly show support for Farrakhan have been publicly scorned and ostracized. This was the fate of Jesse Jackson back in 1984 when he decided to run for POTUS, and asked Farrakhan to support his candidacy. During the course of the campaign Farrakhan inadvertently referred to Hitler as a great man. This supposedly infuriated some people in the Jewish community and they reacted by labeling Farrakhan as Black Hitler and anti-Semitic.</p>
<p>The US Senate voted 95-0 to denounce Farrakhan for allegedly calling Judaism a gutter religion and that Jews should be exterminated. To this day Farrakhan denies ever saying it and there is NO public record of him ever doing so; consequently, Jesse Jackson was pressured into denouncing Farrakhan. In 2014 Arsenio Hall courageously had Farrakhan on his TV show, shortly thereafter his show was cancelled.  There are numerous incidents where African-Americans have been forced to refute Farrakhan.</p>
<p>If Jews and white people in general feel that the black community and our politicians are obligated to condemn the words of a black person that they find to be offensive, then they must be asked why do they NOT feel obligated to condemn the works and deeds of racist behavior against black people? The Republican party were very dishonorable, disrespectful and…racist…towards President Obama, yet their actions were acceptable and never condemned.</p>
<p>President Trumps actions have never been condemned in his show of disrespect towards African-Americans. Reagan flooding the black community with drugs was never condemned. The list goes on and on. This constitutes a double standard! When a black leader says something that’s interpreted to be hateful other black leaders are expected to rush in condemn and crucify him/her.</p>
<p>Black people should NEVER publicly castigate or condemn any black leader who stands up against oppression and exploitation. It needs to be made clear that no<em><a href="https://ThyBlackMan.com"> black person</a></em> possesses the power nor resources at their fingertips to systemically practice bias discrimination, racism or inequity against another group.<strong>  </strong></p>
<p>We have never dehumanized a people, we have never created weapons of mass destruction nor have ever dropped a weapon of mass destruction on a defenseless people, we have never created diseases to get rid of an entire population. When confronting black people, the oppressor can’t accuse black people of <em>hateful actions</em> because we’ve never engaged in destructive behavior against another group. Therefore, they try to level the playing field by making <em>hateful actions</em> insignificant and something they brand as <em>hate speech</em> an egregious act when used by the oppressed.</p>
<p>The Jewish population is approximately 1.4% of the US population and number less than 6 million. Yet they control the movie &amp; music industries, main stream news media (television, radio, newspapers, periodicals, technical journals, etc.) and publication of all public-school materials. Therefore, in an enviable position to be task masters and mold public opinion to suit their own purposes.</p>
<p>During the 1970s Harold Rosenthal, an Administrative Assistant to then Senator Jacob Javits took part in a candid tell all paid interview where he exposed the Zionist intentions to rule the world and how they would go about doing it. This interview cost him his life. The following represent sample size quotes from the interview:</p>
<p>“We have always been ready to sacrifice a few thousand Jews in exchange for world leadership. (This was the plan of the Jews who instigated WW II. Some Jews were sacrificed so that the &#8220;persecution&#8221; propaganda could continue.) It is a small price and there is nothing wrong with that. I was taught that we Jews must become lawyers, so we could control and strangle the courts, and even the judges, unless they were Jews. We should become doctors and teachers and leaders in all the churches…and this goal has almost been fully accomplished.”</p>
<ol>
<li>“I recall your saying that the Blacks serve a purpose.”</li>
<li>“Yes, we will use them to a great advantage. (It was primarily by Jewish merchant ships and Jewish-run slave auctions that the blacks got to America.)”</li>
<li>“And try to <u>destroy</u> them after you have <u>used</u> them I presume?”<br />
<strong><br />
</strong>A. “If necessary. Yes! You and I know they&#8217;re inferior people, a dumb race, but can be useful with the use of money. I mean real big money. Niggers will do anything for money.”</li>
</ol>
<p><em><a href="http://www.antichristconspiracy.com/HTML%20Pages/Harold_Wallace_Rosenthal_Interview_1976.htm">http://www.antichristconspiracy.com/HTML%20Pages/Harold_Wallace_Rosenthal_Interview_1976.htm</a></em></p>
<p>Interesting that this man sold out the Jewish community for blood money, and ironically points an accusing finger at some black folks willingness to sell out for money.</p>
<p>The mindset of the Zionist is that African-Americans are more effective as tools when they sincerely believe a lie. They have incinerated Farrakhan’s verities by painting them as hate and anti-Semitism. These are the same people who didn’t rest until they felt they had found the last of the German participants of their 12-year Holocaust and bring them in to their brand of justice. Adolf Eichmann was the last to stand trial. For the record the Black Holocaust lasted 300 years a Holocaust no one…including black people…want to acknowledge.  Assuredly, the message to Black African-Americans is…don’t imitate our behavior but obey our instructions.</p>
<p>The question needs to be asked how do Jewish and white people feel so embolden to undertake a paternalistic attitude towards black people and get away with it?</p>
<p>The old adage “United we stand, divided we fall” is apropos. Succinctly, black people are a divided and conquered group whereas, the oppressor has fractionalized us into manageable pieces taking control of us piece by piece. As opposed to unification the mindset of the black community is essentially…individualism…consequently we are a misdirected, scattered and leaderless people. This is no accident but by design which dooms us…as a group…to failure and eternal subjugation.</p>
<p>The only saving grace is waking up TAKING back control of our own minds, fate and destiny, and stop putting our salvation into the hands of white dominant political parties. <strong> </strong>It’s tragic to hear black people argue with one another over which political party is best for us, Democrats or Republicans, when neither party see African-Americans as their equal. Unless we as black people become self-empowered, economically independent…change will be forever elusive.</p>
<p>Continuously pleading with White America for freedom, justice and equality is refusal to accept the reality that when someone takes your freedom, they DON’T voluntarily give it back…you must…TAKE it back. It’s an enervated and fragile mind that pleads and sympathizes with its oppressor.</p>
<p>Strong liberated minds do not tolerate nor submit to tyranny, oppression, injustice, slavery, iniquity, he/she will not acquiesce…by going along…just to get along.</p>
<p>This is why Minister Farrakhan is feared…he doesn’t beg…and can’t be controlled or manipulated. To affect change white folks HAVE to be agitated. <em>All change meets resistance! </em>Where there’s no resistance, obstacles or hurdles know that you are traveling down the wrong path and need to reverse course immediately. However, we need to first change our attitude, understanding that as individuals…we are one drop…but together we are an ocean.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[ And in the case of black people there can be a strong argument that we are not even prejudice…but are reactionaries…to racism and prejudicial.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) <em>Life asked death: &#8220;Why do people love me but hate you?&#8221; Death said: &#8220;Because you are a beautiful lie and I&#8217;m the painful truth.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>Kanye West’s incomprehensible and mindless comment that “<em>slavery was a choice</em>”, this along with his support of Trump have stirred up the wrath of many in the black community and rightfully so. However, his comment is in keeping with a mindset he’s always proven to have.</p>
<p>As a rapper he always did demonstrate contempt towards his ancestors being complicit in the global promotion and marketing of musical lyrics producing self-destructive messages, corrupting and polluting the minds of our youth encouraging use of the N- word n**ga which is self-cultural genocide and an extension of mental <a href="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/kanye_westcrazy2018.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-76679" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/kanye_westcrazy2018-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/kanye_westcrazy2018-300x199.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/kanye_westcrazy2018.jpg 620w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>enslavement. Many <em><a href="http://ThyBlackMan.com">African-Americans</a> </em>were very supportive of this degenerate behavior and went so far as to label him a genius.</p>
<p>Those of you who embrace the N-word, and if not, but condone use of the pejorative term by others you are forgetting one important fact; when you point one finger there are three more-pointed back at you. You want to relocate the ugliness you feel about yourselves and put it into someone else, in this case…Kanye West. There are some in the black community who may not use the N-word but deal with the impropriety usage of it by looking the other way, feigning ignorance.</p>
<p>Indifference is the epitome of evil. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented we owe it to our ancestors to hold their struggles and sacrifices in the highest of esteem and not embrace the very word that dehumanized and objectified them…the N-word n**ger/n**ga. And let’s not get it twisted n**ga is unequivocally ghetto vernacular/Ebonics for n**ger.</p>
<p><a name="_Hlk513078627"></a>Kanye’s comment “<em>slavery was a choice</em>” pales in comparison to Black/African- Americans usage of the N-word. The claim that you’ve taken the word and changed its meaning is a bold-face lie. One minute you are supposedly using it as a so-called endearing term…which by the way there isn’t anything endearing about the N- word…and the next minute it is used as a caustic term heaping vitriol on someone. Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, referring to ourselves as the N-word is a fool’s game.</p>
<p>We must NEVER forget <span lang="en">this vile, evil racist term is associated with brutal social systems that denied our humanity. It marks us as things, not people. </span>Offending slaves were hung, burned alive at the stake, dismembered, castrated and branded in addition to the usual beatings that left open wounds with slivers of skin hanging, whereas, often-times kerosene was poured onto the wounds. Many times, the last words slaves heard dying from these numerous atrocities were rants and jeers of the N-word. The N word is more than just a slur…it serves specific purposes…purposes that most African-Americans just don’t seem to be able to comprehend.</p>
<p>Its purposes are three-fold: By categorizing us as the N-word implies we are non-human and thus any atrocities perpetrated upon us as being non-human is supposed to make it okay. This is not to be taken lightly, this has been the 400-year history of this country and to this day nothing has changed. Whether, it’s black on black crime or police shootings, the victim is seen as a n**ger and not as a human being. Black on black violence the victim’s name is seldom used, they are generally referred to as the N-word…a term of endearment it is not.</p>
<p>Second, the N-word was beaten, tortured and forcibly instilled into the minds of slaves to absorb a self-hate, self-abnegation image of themselves. This evolved into a transgenerational legacy. Consequently, many African-Americans are genetically predisposed to embrace the evil, immoral N-word; which is why so many can’t go 48 hours without the term flowing from their mouth.</p>
<p>And finally, the psychologically lie that’s been embedded into the minds of African Americans…so-called white superiority and black inferiority…the ultimate subterfuge.</p>
<p>By embracing the N-word we are accepting the total description of it, sanctioning the evil deeds and carnage perpetrated upon our race past, present and future. When black soldiers returned home from WWII they were greeted with jeers and admonished to never forget their place of being a n**ger. Through-out American history, African-Americans have been admonished to never, ever forget their place…the sunken place…you’ve been designated to dwell in. Rap artists such as Kanye West have allowed themselves to serve as agents for the ungodly.</p>
<p>We must remember to never celebrate ignorance by allowing ourselves to be defined with a term bestowed upon us by former slave-owners and a racist society. It embellishes self-hate, self-destruction and inferior thinking…it transcends being a slur…it’s a psychologically WEAPON. We as a race of people need to come out from underneath the 400-year comatose state and understand what any of this is TRULY all about.</p>
<p>The opportunity should also be addressed as to whether Black people can be racist? The answer is a resounding NO! When were the roles reversed that stripped Whites of their power and privilege and given to Blacks? There can be no reverse racism without a reversal of power.</p>
<p>It needs to be made clear that the Black race possesses no power nor resources at our fingertips to systemically practice bias discrimination, racism or inequity against another group. We simply don’t have the power to do that which is the difference between racism…and being prejudiced. And in the case of black people there can be a strong argument that we are not even prejudice…but are reactionaries…to racism and prejudicial behaviors.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[The Boule' has taken a sworn oath to maintain the state of white supremacy and to never let you know the names of the whites that rule the world.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) The Boule&#8217; is a black GREEK secret society based on another secret society founded at Yale University called…Skull &amp; Bones. The Boule&#8217;s primary founder was Dr. Henry McKee Minton along with Dr.&#8217;s Eugene T. Henson, Edwin Clarence Howard, Algernon Brashear Jackson, Robert Jones Abele and Richard John Warrick; all of Philadelphia. They are the so-called &#8220;<em>talented 10th</em>&#8221; WEB DuBois is famous for speaking of. The founding member of the New York City chapter, WEB DuBois, said the Boule&#8217;s major ambition was to steal the black professional from the ranks of Marcus Garvey, who, at that time in 1918 was reaching over 1 million-plus Diasporic Africans mainly in North America without tv or radio via his newspaper…The Negro World.</p>
<p>DuBois was one of the strongest opponents of Garvey and was an instrumental &#8220;<em>tool</em>&#8221; in stopping one of the strongest grassroots movements of the last century. What was Garvey&#8217;s plan? His plan was to take as many <em><a href="http://ThyBlackMan.com">Africans</a> </em>from the America’s and start a settlement in the nation of Liberia and then help this new nation produce and control their own rubber crops and create other <a href="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Sigma_Pi_Phi_Fraternity_Founders.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-75648" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Sigma_Pi_Phi_Fraternity_Founders-300x217.jpg" alt="" width="281" height="203" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Sigma_Pi_Phi_Fraternity_Founders-300x217.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Sigma_Pi_Phi_Fraternity_Founders.jpg 600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 281px) 100vw, 281px" /></a>industries made of natural resources. It needs to be acknowledged that Firestone became the controlling entity of the rubber crops ruling Liberia with an iron hand.</p>
<p><em><strong>Garvey said</strong></em>: &#8220;If the oil of Africa is good for Rockefeller&#8217;s interest, iron is good for Carnegie trust; the Oppenheimer&#8217;s raping and stripping Africa of her natural resources of gold, silver, diamonds…then these minerals are good for us. Why should we allow Wall Street and the capitalist group of America and other countries exploit our country when they refuse to give us a fair chance in the countries of our adoption? Why should not Africa give to the world its black Rockefeller, Rothschild, and Henry Ford?</p>
<p>This would&#8217;ve potentially meant no Firestone, Goodyear nor U.S. Steel as we know it today because it would have set a precedent that would make all Africans aware of their land and mineral wealth it offers. This also would&#8217;ve shattered the financial arm of white supremacy right when it was getting started. DuBois, along with Alain Locke…the first black (<em>Cecil</em>) Rhodes scholar…publicly defiled Garvey by calling him a gorilla and &#8220;<em>a little, fat black man, ugly with a big head.</em>&#8221; Locke was quoted as saying: &#8220;<em>We hope the white man deliver&#8217;s because we crushed a great black thing, but we know he&#8217;ll deliver or our people will attack and plague us forever more</em>.&#8221; Astonishingly these two house-negroes didn’t believe in African self-reliance and deferred their allegiance to their overseer hoping they’d be given table scraps instead of making their own.</p>
<p>Collectively, there are now 5000+ members and 112 chapters throughout the United States and West Indies which make up the wealthiest group of black men on the planet.</p>
<p>The name Boule&#8217; is a Greek term, meaning &#8220;<em>advisers to the king</em>&#8220;. The next question should be, &#8220;<em>who&#8217;s the king</em>?&#8221; The king that they receive direction from and protect like their logo the Sphinx is the Cecil Rhodes/Lord Rothschild secret society which includes the Rockefeller Foundation.</p>
<p>One of the problems with the Boule&#8217; (<em>and the offspring of the Boule&#8217;: the 8 college fraternities and sororities</em>) is that they falsely acknowledge the Greeks as the founders of civilization which is a fabrication. The Greeks got their knowledge from the Nile Valley (<em>ancient Nubia and Kemet</em>); they plagiarized accumulated knowledge after killing off and raping Kemet then deemed themselves as the originators of the knowledge given to them erasing the African presence of Kemet. Pythagoras, is one of the falsely credited fathers of the arts and sciences from the ancient African mystery schools.</p>
<p><a name="_GoBack"></a>The Boule&#8217; has taken a sworn oath to maintain the state of white supremacy and to never let you know the names of the whites that rule the world. It&#8217;s just like the house negro/field theory. The white “<em>massa</em>” needed a house-negro to keep an eye on the rest and to alert him if there would be an uprising. The Boule’ serves as a modern-day replica of the Meritorious Manumission Act of 1870. Chains and whips may have been abolished but other than that…very little have changed.</p>
<p>[<em><strong>NOTE</strong></em>: the word “<em>negro</em>” needs clarification. Many have been taught this word is the Spanish definition for black. The Spanish however, got this word from the Greeks, who termed it “<em>necro</em>”. Necro in Greek means DEAD! In other words, a “<em>negro</em>” is something mentally and spiritually DEAD.]</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Today, African-Americans are living witnesses as to how both real Black History and African-American History have been—by “his-story, etc....]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) Do we really know what the past was, what actually happened, or is history “<em>a fable</em>” not quite “<em>agreed upon</em>”? Our knowledge of any past event is always incomplete, probably inaccurate, beclouded by ambivalent evidence and biased historians, and perhaps distorted by our own patriotic or religious partisanship. “<em>Most history is guessing, and the rest is prejudice</em>.” Which brings us to a question about Black History and<em> <a href="http://ThyBlackMan.com">African-American</a></em> History…is there a difference? And the only answer that should matter is the one tendered by African-Americans and NO ONE else.</p>
<p>If it’s left up to white historians the answer would be a resounding no there isn’t any difference. The ruling class objective…isn’t to bring black people closer together…but rather extract the unity from us. The truth of our condition is that those that can shrewdly indoctrinate thoughts into our collective minds that serves their nefarious interest are doing so as a means of protecting white dominance. Black people are constantly inundated with fraudulent negative information about themselves that’s designed to create Black self-hatred, self-doubt and disunity.</p>
<p>Unequivocally, African-American history is the part of American history that looks at the African-American ethnic group in the United States, correcting the misrepresentations, and stereotypes of Black life throughout the country, and vindicating African-<a href="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-74221" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth-300x150.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="150" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth-300x150.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth-768x384.jpg 768w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth.jpg 960w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>Americans by celebrating our extraordinary achievements as Americans. Most African-Americans are the descendants of Africans forcibly brought to and held captive in the United States from 1525 to 1863* (<em>or early 1960s*</em>).</p>
<p>The term Black History encompasses African history, the Caribbean and South America as well, not just African-Americans, and as supposedly liberated men and women we should have no problem acknowledging the difference, regardless how others may try to control the narrative. The [<em>white lie</em>] of both African-America history and Black History devaluing black people in general must not go unchallenged. African-American History is ancillary to Black History it’s imperative that African-Americans know the difference and not be in denial.</p>
<p>Negro History Week, the precursor to Black History Month was created in 1926 in the United States, when historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History…not the U.S. government…announced the second week of February to be &#8220;<em>Negro History Week</em>.&#8221; In 1976, when Black History Month was officially acknowledged by the U.S. government, and President Gerald Ford gave a very brief speech it resonated with paternalism. Which raises a question, are we a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced because we love servitude?</p>
<p>Black History…which is connected to Ancient Egypt…doesn’t begin with slavery; whereas, African-American History does and to allow the oppressor to get away with trying to intertwine the two histories as one is tantamount to mental ineptness lacking the fortitude to either think for ourselves or the intestinal fortitude to stand up and define our own reality. The intent is to keep us scared, to keep us subdued. Stop being scared, start standing up! You cannot enslave a mind that knows itself, values itself, and understands itself. We as African Americans need to initiate some critical thinking and stop believing the same BS that was forced upon our enslaved ancestors? They had no choice of the falsehoods they were made to believe, but today we are supposed to be free with access to all sort of computerized information. No longer is it necessary for us to believe as our enslaved ancestors were intimidated to, we should be doing our own research.</p>
<p>Often-times an argument is made that enslaved Africans didn’t come from Egypt but from West Africa therefore no connection. Yet, American and World History teaches that Greece and Rome are the Cradle of Western Civilization, which has nothing to do with most white people, but they lay claim to the cultures anyway. White people have their history, heritage and culture and it begins with Greece and Rome, the Black race also has its history, heritage and culture and it commences with Ancient Egypt.</p>
<p>Servitude ignorance is the highest form of mental slavery; if we insist on conforming to a world full of lies, we don’t have the right to complain about intimidation…as we never fought back…instead we let it go on. Your failure to think for and govern yourself gives oppressors permission to rule over you.</p>
<p>Anyone who is convinced his or her past is empty, backward, shameful or, indeed, totally negative, will normally resist any attempt to revisit that past. Such a person will have no lucid identity, despise self, and have no real awareness of his/her culture and heritage. This same person will refuse to consciously participate in or relate to any cultural customs and will resist any attempt to validate any [facts] discovered. They remain in darkness, the sunken place, helpless, and dependent, which is why so many succumb to embracing the N-word n**ga/n**ger.</p>
<p>Some people contend that black people were present on this land when Columbus supposedly arrived. To that I say…let’s do our due diligence…connect the dots and see what kind of shape it takes, and not assume there’s nothing to it. Most African- Americans have no clue what “<em>The Moorish-American Treaty of Peace Friendship of 1787</em>” was all about and its significance to African-Americans and how it may shed some light on things. Does the “Burrows Cave” mean anything? Supposedly it serves as a link to Africans arriving in America approximately 1500 years before Columbus. This and other clues could very well provide enough dots to connect and see what shape materializes.</p>
<p>In Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 1964 speech “<em>I have a Dream</em>” he states that “<em>the Negro finds himself exiled in his own land</em>.” What was behind this comment? Was it just a trivial comment or was there some esoteric meaning behind it?</p>
<p>The African-American population owes it to self and their forefathers to unearth the truth. Black African-Americans have been bamboozled and hoodwinked long enough. To determine a real future for Black America, the entire race of people must learn about and embrace their past far back across the waters to use that as a foundation and a source of life for future progress. African-Americans must not wait to learn about Black history when it is convenient for the rest of America, but must become owners of their own enlightenment, keepers of their own achievements, and missionaries of their own salvation.</p>
<p>Americans in general are constantly subjected to images of a war-torn, famine-ridden, rampantly illiterate, and disease-stricken Africa. These deplorable depictions of Africa displaying only its poorest communities are in fact designed to make African-Americans feel grateful that their ancestors were enslaved and bought to America, therefore, they&#8217;re the lucky ones to have been taken away from the backwardness of Africa. Many countries in Africa have beautiful contemporary cities but seldom are these cities given exposure by mainstream media.</p>
<p>This psychological subterfuge and chicanery is extended to Black students during their educational development wherein they&#8217;re taught they have no significant history beyond the enslavement of their ancestors; most are mis-educated to respect and admire white culture and achievements above their own. Movies depicting mostly white heroes have the same psychological affect.</p>
<p>The antithesis is actor Danny Glover when he presented his script about the Haitian Revolution to Hollywood was turned down because there were no white heroes. The Haitian Revolution is significant and requires the attention of all African-Americans for without it there wouldn’t have been any freeing of the slaves in 1863. This is an illustration of how attempts are made to keep African-Americans dumbed down about Black History, and to embrace Eurocentrism.</p>
<p>African Americans must consciously and sub-consciously understand that what we are taught in public schools isn’t for our benefit but is what serves the best interest of the oppressor. History translates into “<em>his-story</em>”—the way one understands or interprets history from his or her own perspective to his or her own benefit. Today, African-Americans are living witnesses as to how both real Black History and African-American History have been—by “<em>his-story</em>”—distorted, misleading, deceptive and mind controlling.</p>
<p><a name="_GoBack"></a>Evidence all around the world suggests that Black civilizations were far more advanced than what’s portrayed to the black community by the oppressor. The ruling class and others want African-Americans to believe that the Black race past is limited to huts, spears and jungle life with no trace of civility, culture, organization, and self-sufficiency. Research exposes this narrative as a gross fabrication.</p>
<p>We must become more proactive in disseminating the truth among ourselves…especially with our youth. We have a choice…the tumultuousness of liberty…or the quiet of servitude, there is no gray area, it’s either one or the other.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Ultimately black people salvation lies in group power not in the good will of other people, not in the love of other people, not in laws, etc...]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(<strong>ThyBlackMan.com</strong>) Since 1863, the supposedly absolution of slavery…on into this 21st century…there has been one constant, Black America’s protracted begging, moaning and groaning for equality, looking for its salvation through either the Democratic or Republican political parties. Though there has been some progress, these pleas for the most part, are met with condescension and contempt, routinely placated with tokenism or optical illusions. To be unequivocally clear…slavery was never abolished…it was transformed.</p>
<p>When a Black person declares him or herself a conservative they are knowingly or unknowingly politically predisposed to conserving, preserving America’s ruling class traditions of the past i.e. hypocrisy, deception, oppression and racism toward African-Americans.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" title="How the FBI Sabotaged Black America" width="1170" height="878" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FMlco0b_erY?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>During days of slavery a Meritorious Manumission Act of 1710, was enacted in Virginia, a law that served to control the mentality of enslaved Africans. His personality and behavior were shaped exclusively by the unique form of American slavery. If any black person saved a white person’s life or protected their property, invented something from which a white person could generate <a href="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2016-2017-BlackInAmerica.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-62188" src="http://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2016-2017-BlackInAmerica-300x179.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="179" srcset="https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2016-2017-BlackInAmerica-300x179.jpg 300w, https://thyblackman.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2016-2017-BlackInAmerica.jpg 400w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>money, or squealed on someone involved in a black slavery revolt, he would secure his own freedom. This tradition is still prevalent today whereas any black person who is Eurocentric in his/her thinking and willing to preserve white dominance can find themselves promoted to privileged positions within the white hierarchy.</p>
<p>The Republican Party is the party of white supremacist and sycophant African-Americans such as Larry Elder, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Clarence Thomas, Ben Carson, Omarosa Manigualt, Sheriff Clarke, Senator Tim Scott and others who all exemplify naivety…takes the white man’s word…as the unquestionable truth. They’ll emphatically proclaim that the plight of Black America is its own doing, by producing so-called statistics with no attempts to try and explore the validity and/or cause of what are often manipulated or biased half-truth statistics.</p>
<p>These so-called Black conservatives…who are always sniffing the white man’s behind… have been brainwashed into placing the blame for drug related crimes, fatherless homes, unwed teen-age parents, welfare, poverty, black on black crime, etc. at the doorsteps of the black community; when the reality is that the black community has been locked into a NO WIN situation leading to its current quagmire.</p>
<p>All the wealth and power in this country have been dispensed over 400 years systemically into the hands of the white society. African-Americans don’t own a significant amount of anything to be able to control their lives; America’s majority control almost 100% of the income, wealth, power, the resources, privileges and all levels of government—making it impossible to compete. Whatever happened to the promised 40 acres and a mule?</p>
<p>This deplorable negative depictions of African-Americans subjects them to seeing only the fraudulent worst in themselves, is designed to corrupt their sense of racial black unity and cohesion, molding the character of self-hatred, engender self-doubt, self-loathing, and distrust among the group; and insinuate that Blacks admire, respect, and trust only Whites.</p>
<p>It also drills the message that Black America is powerless, of lesser moral, and intelligence, that they need whites to govern over their lives thus detaching African-Americans from their sense of power and reality. Usage of manipulative misinformation affects the self-perceptions of targeted groups, in this case African-Americans being the group victimized. So-called black conservatives serve as useful tools in helping to perpetuate these misperceptions and half-truths.</p>
<p>To add insult to injury during the 1980s under the Reagan administration, the black community was flooded with cocaine and firearms by the CIA. Millions of lives were adversely affected, and the lingering effects are prevalent to this very day. Yet Republicans have the unmitigated gall to look at the black community in utter contempt and place the blame solely on their shoulders for any drug abuses, while black conservatives meekly and obediently…go along with the charades.</p>
<p>Reagan’s administration had other strategies in place as well such as:</p>
<p><em><strong>1)</strong></em> Never speak ill of black folks in public.</p>
<p><em><strong>2)</strong></em> Only speak the negative when you know where you are and who you are with.</p>
<p><strong><em>3)</em></strong> ALWAYS put your personal self-interest before justice for black folks.</p>
<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GMLA2YRV8w</p>
<p>However, the alternative isn’t any better, many African-Americans are tired of being taken for granted, and are looking for other options to the failed policies of Democrats. The Republicans’ message to them is resonating; failing to realize that behind closed doors, insofar, as African-Americans are concerned the two-party system becomes a one-party system as their ideology towards Black America are one and the same.</p>
<p>Black/African-Americans monumental mistake is placing its fate and destiny into the hands of political parties…Democrats and Republicans…as opposed to circling the wagons and taking control of its own fate and destiny. Unless, it is eventually done, both political parties are going to continue to use African-Americans and play us like a fiddle. Some would argue that African-Americans need to demand economic reciprocity for their support and that it should be verbalized consistently and resolutely communicating that it is our absolute expectations. Such rationale is paramount to trying to mix water and oil together—it just doesn’t work. African-Americans only salvation is economic independence anything less they can expect to always be treated in an exploitative, subordinated and marginalized manner to assume otherwise will always prove to be an exercise in futility.</p>
<p>Ultimately black people salvation lies in group power not in the good will of other people, not in the love of other people, not in laws on the books. It’s been 155 years since 1863 and you would think Black America would see the handwriting on the wall by now…we are not going to [force] anyone to accept us as their equal.</p>
<p>The American system is fundamentally corrupt and doesn’t function to accept nor treat Black/African-Americans as equals…never have, never will…unless we become economically independent, which ironically the American institutionalized systemic, out of fear, will always try to sabotage any such efforts while simultaneously putting African-Americans down as being a burden on the government. There’s nothing the oppressor fears more than UNITY among the oppressed. Tulsa, Oklahoma 1921, serves as an example.</p>
<p><a name="_GoBack"></a>Racism is essentially an economical problem, rationalization for maintaining economic, political, social dominance, military and other kinds of control over a people…not an “attitude” problem. We are naive enough to think that if white people see us as people like them they would have a change of attitude and come to love us…failing to understand…the true nature and purpose of racism is an unyielding commitment towards the preservation of White dominance and control.</p>
