FACT CHECK EVERYTHING. This post is not made to harass anyone, it is not made to bully anyone, it is not a targeting anyone. It is NOT made to promote hate based on identity, gender, race, religion, or ethnicity, etc it is the DISCUSSION of race and race relations. This is a snowflake disclaimer. I AM NOT DISCUSSING ANY INDIVIDUAL. This is an analysis of black society and issues. If you disagree please state why or call out anything. This is made to DISCUSS these issues and hopefully I can learn something new through these exchanges. Racial Slurs will be referenced. In this discussion lets 1) Remember the Human, deconstructing racism and european society can be an intense subject remember the human. 2) Behave like you would in real life. 3) Look for the original source of the content. (which this is the og) 4) I have search for duplicates and I have written it and if asked I can provide sources. 5) Be real (mask off) with one another is the only rule of the community.
We accept that there is explicit bias in people who reject black people due to their racial ideas about black Americans, you even have black people who reject other black Americans based on the same metric but they get a pass because they like what they like?
How can we acknowledge white supremacy and white privilege YET not understand how this has influenced us as a people in the dating sphere but quickly we point fingers at opposite genders and effectively use cookie jar logic when we are both in the same boat.
Our inability to work together and the pick me attitude of having to include others in our fight has ultimately weakened us as a people. They shoved MILK down our throats as children because of the passive message he preached. The will to power is not given. You cannot GIVE me something I was born with.
We refuse to cultivate collectivize a society that truly represents our needs because they tricked us into thinking and wanting to be white. That’s the big elephant in the room. That want us to assimilate, integrate to view their way as superior while still viewing us as subhuman. We don’t have a single black movement or black leaders that represent us. The Gov effectively busted each and every black power movement through cointelpro. We don’t work together because the simple truth is internalized racism got us thinking “we not like them 🥷 over there” completely missing the point. There’s too many that don’t want to be black they might not hate themselves but their lives display that are blackphobic. They cut themselves off culturally spiritually economically etc, from the black community. They quelled black power movements and actually equated them with hate and to mean danger to the white psyche. Real black power movements.
We need to realize CULTURE can be used to topple empires. It is a very subtle weapon that can used to influence people. Our culture was weaponized against us.
The Acceptable blackness paradigm and the fully assimilated black people took over the topic of black power and sold us out for representation. No, not representing US but their own new fusion culture that developed from being black in the suburbs, going to all white schools, having all whites friends. They are the “I was the only black person at my PWI” OR the first semester at a HBCU now I’m black power and all black WITHOUT ever deprogramming from being socialized and conditioned culturally as white American. They stripped us of our language religion and customs for a reason and black culture isn’t one dimensional at all, however without cultural unity we will keep falling time and time again as the rebels without causes keep searching for the next big cause to fight for. They will continuously use us to push their own agenda by getting our voting block to push support for their endless cause.
Another big elephant in the room is White America is at war with itself. It is a moral war. A culture war where one side is attempting to grab the moral high ground and the other side is trying to stay in power. Both groups use nonwhites in different ways to fight their battles. Both sides use fear of retribution. They do not actually LISTEN to the interest of nonwhites when it doesn’t serve them. It might appear that they didn’t have a plan that they just set black Americans free. Truth is a former slave population could have pulled off Haiti
One side was thinking we need to ensure they will never destroy the fabric of our society we need to keep them down the other side thought the same except they wanted to subjugate us mentally to quell any anger or hate and to turn that into a weapon against us. Lock us up in districts under shitty conditions and watch us take that anger out on each other. When black power movements do rise, they bust them out by infiltrating and use propaganda to change the public perception around them. Make them a danger to US. Black power = Black Retribution. When we invite so many to the cookout and those invited to the cookout and the dissonance between their identity and their generational guilt, shame, and fear is eradicated they bring their ideas into OUR movements effectively neuter them and making it their cause. Feminism, LGBTQ+, other racial groups, etc once they get theirs after rallying is up, they get what they want and we get scraps. We get representation (Juneteenth) they get specific bills and laws that effect change. We get recognized they get change. Maybe I am blind but what bill effectively was made for black people who were/are systematically disenfranchised and terrorized? Who is shouting recognize me white people! We are human too. No! Fuck that. Black women were used to push white women’s agenda and increase their power block AS women but they see blackness(race)before gender. The intersection between racism and sexism manifest itself in the divestment movements.
Now that blacks people have engineered a culture that has become globally popular and influential, (once again ode to the jazz age) everyone wants that invite. Nobody wants to be bland they want a little spice. The classic they want to be black without being black they want our culture without US as a people involved and they feel entitled to it although they are historically the villains in the story they don’t want us to talk about it. It’s like a poacher’s daughters wearing the multimillion dollar skin of an extinct animal that her father hunted into extinction shouting she did nothing wrong so she can say the n word because her friends and bf is black.
Remember our acceptable black people separated themselves from their people, said it’s all good, and sold our culture out for “inclusion representation” just so their overlords could feel morally justified by check marking diversity. They are the vultures profiting off the corpses of our people when they commodify violence as entertainment with the creation of each “tea” page, they want to blame rap culture the people telling these stories instead of asking why is it the only thing spotlighted in our community? What can we do to make it better? Instead “we not like those 🥷 over there.” Basically going out of their way to prove their existence isn’t dangerous or a threat. To appease white anxieties.
The colonial mindset is again two on a spectrum. Those who want to “go native” so they can enjoy what they have and then those who want to enforce their way onto the others as they see their own as superior simply to eradicate otherness. Both are usurpers. They invade our culture whitewash it redefine it make it less threatening change the villains and the words meanings. White paternalism White Saviors and the people who lead them to the tribe
Nation
Assimilate, Integrate (play THEIR game in their context)
Colonize
Divestment
nation (n.)
c. 1300, nacioun, “a race of people, large group of people with common ancestry and language,” from Old French nacion “birth, rank; descendants, relatives; country, homeland” (12c.) and directly from Latin nationem (nominative natio) “birth, origin; breed, stock, kind, species; race of people, tribe,” literally “that which has been born,” from natus, past participle of nasci “be born” (Old Latin gnasci), from PIE root *gene- “give birth, beget,” with derivatives referring to procreation and familial and tribal groups.
The word is used in English in a broad sense, “a race of people an aggregation of persons of the same ethnic family and speaking the same language,” and also in the narrower sense, “a political society composed of a government and subjects or citizens and constituting a political unit; an organized community inhabiting a defined territory within which its sovereignty is exercised.”
In Middle English it is not easy to distinguish them, but the “political society” sense emerged by 16c., perhaps late 14c. and it has gradually predominated. The older sense is preserved in the application of nation to the native North American peoples (1640s). Nation-building “creation of a new nation” is attested by 1907 (implied in nation-builder). Nation-state “sovereign country the inhabitants of which are united by language, culture, and common descent” is from 1918.
A nation is an organized community within a certain territory; or in other words, there must be a place where its sole sovereignty is exercised. [Theodore D. Woolsey, “Introduction to the Study of International Law,” 1864]
Natio means CHILDREN OF THE SAME BIRTH or human group of same origin
A nation is birthed from a MOTHERLAND. A land that metaphorically births the people. Most languages refer to a country as “her” they protect the dignity and pride of their ancestral homeland. Most languages have gendered nouns and
Latin, one of the sources of the English language, also has feminine and masculine words, and terra firma is one of them. Terra firma means earth, or solid ground, and it is feminine. So, partly because of its Latin origin, and partly because the rich earth beneath our feet was the original source of food (and nurturing) for our ancestors, our humble planet became known as Mother Earth.
They pillage land and occupy it. They loot to enrich their own.
Remember the Birth of Nations and how sexual racism and the sanctity and purity of white women was used to institute a stratified racial Society while they invaded and pillaged black women? Who is the most disrespected member of our community ? Globally. From women, the nation is born. Attack the womb to destroy the nation. The archetype or symbol of white supremacy is the white woman. Hence the birth of a nation, the revival of the clan was built around the myth of the racist stereotypes of “black brutes” talked about as predators to “pillage” white women and white society. It fueled Jim Crow.
assimilate (v.)
early 15c., in physiology, “absorb into and make part of the body,” from Latin assimilatus, past participle of assimilare, assimulare “to make like, copy, imitate, assume the form of; feign, pretend,” from assimilated form of ad “to” (see ad-) + simulare “make similar,” from similis “like, resembling, of the same kind” (see similar). The meaning “make alike, cause to resemble,” and the intransitive sense “become incorporated into” are from 1620s. In linguistics, “bring into accordance or agreement in speech,” from 1854. Related: Assimilated; assimilating
integrate (v.)
1630s, “to render (something) whole, bring together the parts of,” from Latin integratus, past participle of integrare “make whole,” from integer “whole, complete,” figuratively, “untainted, upright,” literally “untouched,” from in- “not” (see in- (1)) + root of tangere “to touch,” from PIE root *tag- “to touch, handle.”
The meaning “put together parts or elements and combine them into a whole” is from 1802. The “racially desegregate” sense (1940) probably is a back-formation from integration. Related: Integrated; integrating.
Assimilation programs ran rampant in the USA. Of course they used religion to subjugate the mind of the people: from Wikipedia, In 1634, Fr. Andrew White of the English Province of the Society of Jesus established a mission in what is now Southern Maryland. He said the purpose of the mission, as an interpreter told the chief of a Native American tribe there, was “to extend civilization and instruction to his ignorant race, and show them the way to heaven.”
This is how they justified their “R*P*” of a Nation. This is how they justify their theft.
colonize (v.)
1620s, “to settle with colonists, plant or establish a colony in,” from stem of Latin colonus “tiller of the soil, farmer” (see colony). From 1630s as “to migrate to and settle in.” It is attested by 1790s in the sense of “to make another place into a national dependency” without regard for settlement there (such as in reference to French activity in Egypt or the British in India), and in this sense it is probably directly from colony.
No principle ought ever to be tolerated or acted upon, that does not proceed on the basis of India being considered as the temporary residence of a great British Establishment, for the good government of the country, upon steady and uniform principles, and of a large British factory, for the beneficial management of its trade, upon rules applicable to the state and manners of the country. [Henry Dundas, Chairman of the East-India Company, letter, April 2, 1800]
Related: Colonized; colonizing.
Entries linking to colonize
late 14c., “ancient Roman settlement outside Italy,” from Latin colonia “settled land, farm, landed estate,” from colonus “husbandman, tenant farmer, settler in new land,” from colere “to cultivate, to till; to inhabit; to frequent, practice, respect; tend, guard,” from PIE root *kwel- (1) “revolve, move round; sojourn, dwell” (source also of Latin -cola “inhabitant”). Also used by the Romans to translate Greek apoikia “people from home.”
In reference to modern situations, “company or body of people who migrate from their native country to cultivate and inhabit a new place while remaining subject to the mother country,” attested from 1540s. Meaning “a country or district colonized” is by 1610s.
R*P* (v.)
late 14c., rapen, “seize prey; abduct, take and carry off by force,” from r*pe (n.) and from Anglo-French raper (Old French rapir) “to seize, abduct,” a legal term, probably from Latin rapere “seize, carry off by force, abduct” (see rapid). Also figuring in alliterative or rhyming phrases, such as r*pe and renne (late 14c.) “seize and plunder.”
The older senses of the English word became obsolete. The surviving meaning “to abduct (a woman), ravish;” also “seduce (a man)” is clearly by early 15c. in English, but it might have been at least part of the sense in earlier uses.
Meaning “to rob, strip, plunder” (a place) is from 1721, a partial revival of the old sense. Uncertain connection to Low German and Dutch rapen in the same sense. In Middle English, and occasionally after, the verb was used in figurative senses of Latin rapere, such as “transport in ecstasy, carry off to heaven,” usually in past-participle rapte, which tends to blend with rapt. Related: Raped; raping.
Classical Latin rapere was used for “sexually violate,” but only rarely; the usual Latin word being stuprare “to defile, ravish, violate,” which is related to stuprum (n.) “illicit sexual intercourse,” literally “disgrace,” stupere “to be stunned, stupefied” (see stupid). Latin raptus, past participle of rapere, used as a noun meant “a seizure, plundering, abduction,” but in Medieval Latin also “forcible violation.”
Pillage, plunder, and forcible violation of a nation and to “colonize” or “occupy” a land.
divest (v.)
1560s, devest (modern spelling is c. 1600), “strip of possessions,” from French devester “strip of possessions” (Old French desvestir), from des- “away” (see dis-) + vestir “to clothe,” from Latin vestire “to clothe” (from PIE *wes- (2) “to clothe,” extended form of root *eu- “to dress”).
The etymological sense of “strip of clothes, arms, or equipage” is from 1580s. Meaning “strip by some definite or legal process” is from 1570s. Economic sense “sell off (a subsidiary company, later an investment) is by 1961. Related: Divested; divesting
We have a growing black divestment movement in the USA. Some Black Women, the progenitors of our nation, wish to fully divest themselves. A divorce from the toxic state of the black community. The collective trauma dishonor disrespect they have experienced has caused them to want to assimilate into white society. Refusing to Dating black men is one component to this but they each have a different perspective and opinion on how to go about it. I understand them and their need to divest. Black women are being pressured from being at the intersection. They deal with the racism that has poisoned the minds of us all and they deal with sexism that religion has breed. Being black and then being a woman. They were attacked at every angle and we as black men FAIL and have FAILED to protect the dignity and sanctity of our women. Culturally and spiritually we fail our daughters mothers sisters. We have not culturally valued black women. They divest for themselves. As an individual It was instilled in me but I have seen it time and time again black women being dishonored.
I do not say this to say that I agree with divestment or even like what they are doing. In fact I disagree with them but i understand their need to leave and in the long run it’s good that people with this way of thinking is not amongst us.
Frantz Fanon
In the West, the family circle, the effects of education, and the relatively high standard of living of the working class provide a more or less efficient protection against the harmful action of these pastimes. But in an African country, where mental development is uneven, where the violent collision of two worlds has considerably shaken old traditions and thrown the universe of the perceptions out of focus, the impressionability and sensibility of the Young African are at the mercy of the various assaults made upon them by the very Nature of Western Culture.
I think they fail to understand that we are in the same boat as a people. Under the same conditions and the collective trauma goes both ways but manifest differently based on gender. Their desire to pack up and leave is the same driving force of the men that they criticize. It’s cookie jar logic. They often become internalized racist. They want to breed the black out of them and they have chosen to opt out and support their own interest. They often go to the very causers and choose the imitation out of familiarity or something completely removed from what they are because it’s simply easier. They can pretend their not black . Black men have been devalued emasculated weaken effectively neutered.
We act like white privilege simply stop existing in dating and we act like black peoples especially black women sense of self worth wasn’t dehumanized and abused beaten into the ground in order to assimilate. We reenact this abuse into each other in a never ending cycle of hate and self destruction. We fall for the very ones who benefit from our division because it was engineered and structured for that to happen. For us to fight.
Who taught us to hate our skin? To hate our lips? Who tricked us into thinking we were subhuman? Who had us hating being black?
To divest means to “sell off” to pull away or pull out from what you bought into. Divesters men and women are pulling out, selling off or out, of the black community (our collective struggle) and our blackness (our collective cultural id)
It’s an abortion. It is a collective call to divorce or abandon. It’s like being a boat with different types of people: some who want to paddle some who want others to help us paddle some who want to paddle. The divesters are two sets of those who refuse to paddle pointing their fingers at each other and then saying fuck this boat it’s sinking and damaged anyway jumping ship and swimming towards the pirates who robbed and destroyed the ship in the first place. When I hear a divester, I am sadden but ultimately
Good riddance
Moving forward we only need nation builders. We need to empower our women and men. Let them opt out. I am sick of people who LOOK like me try to speak for me or represent me when they are sooooooo far removed from our culture. White peoples problems aren’t our problems until they become our problems This is a spiritual war thus symbols are the language. Ancient societies didn’t have a concept of race they went by culture religion language basically they were super aware of ethnicity.
People can share the same race but be a different type of ethnicity. You can change cultures and adopt new ones or be adopted. You can integrate. You can assimilate to another one. But if you chose that life, completely divest. Don’t speak of us. If you abandon your children and put them up for adoption, you opted out of your right to speak or command their life. You are not invested in the community or nation. You date white people as status symbols for validation recognition and representation of your humanity. You sold off your investment into the community. The social status or social mobility being accessed through your partner. Through dating exclusively white people you marry what they symbolize as well. They engineered your subjugation and now you give access to your land. You give them access into your culture identity. You gain access to theirs. You support white supremacy and hegemony when you invest yourself into it for all intents and purposes, you are culturally and socially a white person you play their game and thus you are a white supremacist. You are a white person with black skin
We have no need for that
Yall see how everyone wants a N-word pass? I tried to describe to someone online that simply the term is a Homonym. It has multiple meanings.
They talk so much about how it has a reclaimed meaning. Totally ignoring:
- It is a Reclaimed racial meaning. The last thing some of our ancestors heard before murdered was that word.
- We use this word amongst ourselves to show solidarity and camaraderie amongst ourselves
- The multiple meanings changes depending on the context that nonblack people will NEVER experience in its entirety. Just like every other word they appropriated, they want to redefine this one as well to simply ONLY mean one of its contextual meanings. Its dual meaning including a) a black male b) close friend or friends or the derogatory meanings of c) “nwords aint shh”, “stop acting like nwords.” Just like black bword takes a new racial contextual meaning rather just saying bword.
Its part of our collective experience. White people and other nonblack people ONLY see the friend context and think why cant i say it when It simply not applicable. Even when people say white nwords, its in the context of white men. Its a complex word with a complex history and to be honest, I dont think any other race should say a racial slur and get a pass because it is dehumanizing and outside of their understanding in the same way it is outside of a man’s understanding when calling a woman a bword knowing the historical usage and contextual sexism that goes with it . NO OTHER racial slur is going through this. They do not feel what it really means to be a nword.Inevitably, opposition to any occupying force has breed a culture of defiance and anti social behavior in the extreme. They refuse to bend the knee. (Unapologetic blackness) I will tackle this another day
land (n.)
Old English lond, land, “ground, soil,” also “definite portion of the earth’s surface, home region of a person or a people, territory marked by political boundaries,” from Proto-Germanic *landja- (source also of Old Norse, Old Frisian Dutch, Gothic land, German Land), perhaps from PIE *lendh- (2) “land, open land, heath” (source also of Old Irish land, Middle Welsh llan “an open space,” Welsh llan “enclosure, church,” Breton lann “heath,” source of French lande; Old Church Slavonic ledina “waste land, heath,” Czech lada “fallow land”). But Boutkan finds no IE etymology and suspects a substratum word in Germanic,
Etymological evidence and Gothic use indicates the original Germanic sense was “a definite portion of the earth’s surface owned by an individual or home of a nation.” The meaning was early extended to “solid surface of the earth,” a sense which once had belonged to the ancestor of Modern English earth (n.). Original senses of land in English now tend to go with country. To take the lay of the land is a nautical expression. In the American English exclamation land’s sakes (1846) land is a euphemism for Lord
Excerpt:
There was a period when the term “fatherland” was used in English. Emerged in the 1200s, the word predates “motherland,” which came into use in the 1500s. Derived from the Latin word “patria,” “fatherland” implies heritage, tradition, government and order, whereas “motherland” suggests nurturing and a place of birth. While the male image of the country calls for patriotism and loyalty, the female metaphor evokes a sense of belonging and love.
To tie this all together:
The “black” nation or Black America was r*ped and colonized (through force). This colonial mindset is enforced through the dual consciousness
Nations are referred to in the feminine and personified as a woman in most Latin Or Germanic languages.
Symbolically, the black nation or land (she) is pillaged by force and occupied (colonized)
When calling a person colonized you are effectively saying they are occupied by invaders or foreigners who have pillaged (the r word) your motherland. You are divested from your nation and homeland and support the pillaging and plunder. There’s people amongst us WHO want to fully assimilate. They love playing both sides of the fence. Black became popular remember all those people who was washed? What do you think they started embracing just like everyone else around that time? They speak for us yet do not represent us or interest politically economically etc. there are people amongst us who want to play both sides of the fence.
I will tackle white anxieties in another
It includes the ongoing “yellow peril” racism, black retribution (a Haiti), and how white purity doctrine has lead to the failure of white supremacy. Remember we have a European sense. A European language a European name that effectively erase who we were as a people. The way we perceive interact and communicate the world is through a European lens. Deconstruct this. We should also start posting the racist caricatures and examples that propagate them in media.
Malcolm X, along with John Henrik Clarke, wrote the following into the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU) Basic Unity Program:
Restoration: “In order to release ourselves from the oppression of our enslavers then, it is absolutely necessary for the Afro-American to restore communication with Africa.”
Reorientation: “We can learn much about Africa by reading informative books and by listening to the experiences of those who have traveled there.”
Education: “The Organization of Afro-American Unity will devise original educational methods and procedures which will liberate the minds of our children. We will … encourage qualified Afro-Americans to write and publish the textbooks needed to liberate our minds … educating them [our children] at home.”
Economic Security: “After the Emancipation Proclamation … it was realized that the Afro-American constituted the largest homogeneous ethnic group with a common origin and common group experience in the United States and, if allowed to exercise economic or political freedom, would in a short period of time own this country. We must establish a technician bank. We must do this so that the newly independent nations of Africa can turn to us who are their brothers for the technicians they will need now and in the future.”
Self Defense: “In order to enslave a people and keep them subjugated, their right to self defense must be denied. We encourage the Afro-Americans to defend themselves against the wanton attacks of the racist aggressors whose sole aim is to deny us the guarantee of the United Nations Charter of Human Rights and of the Constitution of the United States.”
The OAAU pushed for black control of every aspect of the black community. At the founding rally, Malcolm X stated that the organization’s principal concern was the human rights of blacks, but that it would also focus on voter registration, school boycotts, rent strikes, housing rehabilitation, and social programs for addicts, unwed mothers, and troubled children. Malcolm X saw the OAAU as a way of “un-brainwashing” black people, ridding them of the lies they had been told about themselves and their culture.
On July 17, 1964, Malcolm X was welcomed to the second meeting of the Organisation of African Unity in Cairo as a representative of the OAAU.[3]
When a reporter asked whether white people could join the OAAU, Malcolm X said, “Definitely not.” Then he added, “If John Brown were still alive, we might accept him
It was deemed a threat to National security by Hoovers FBI in 1964.
On July 17, 1964, Malcolm X was welcomed to the second meeting of the Organisation of African Unity in Cairo as a representative of the OAAU.
The OAU successor is the AU (African Union)
Remember Libya 2011. Remember The African Dinar which then SOS Hillary Clinton said must not happened.
Remember the black star line. Remember black Wall Street. Remember the black panthers.
Why do these organizations get busted up? These are recent events as well.Black Americans need to perform a mass exodus and in order to do so
We must break the chains that hold us. The ones placed on us and the ones we have placed on ourselves
