REPENTING OF RACISM



REPENTING OF RACISM

Racism means that firing ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling Black spaces

who hashtag, frame, brutalize, flood our streets with drugs and guns and whisk our kids away in CHILD rape rings

to them and to others is considered ‘radical’ and ‘racist’, needing more ‘moderate’ measures like bodycams,

civilian oversight and liability insurance instead, because the underlying racist premise that we’re programmed to think

but NEVER (or rarely) say is that we are incapable of policing ourselves and that white cops from elsewheres are the last

bastion of defense against utter chaos in our streets. But let just one cop do to them a fraction of what’s been done to us

and the whole world 🌍 upends where they’ll fire, suspend or ban an entire precinct - including its chief - for the ill action of just one or two.

To maintain this delusion, they have back to back cop and lawyer shows running 24/7 on tv along with a media and

legal system that obfuscates the truth unless they can put a Black (or brown) face as the culprit.

Again, CHILDREN, racism that is conscious mal-intent is 1% of our problem. The other 99% is...

You ever play the association game?

Black > white

Up > down

Left > right

Drugs > Escobars

Crime of the century > OJ

Reparations > handout

Black people > lazy

Coronavirus?

And I could go on.

The same is true for many of our other ills. Only a fraction of the 1% pull all the strings with mal-intent

(and their strings are pulled by greed and the like, believing the demonic fallacies of ‘In order for you to have more, I must have less’ and ‘There’s not enough to go around’ and ‘Survival of the fittest’ and ‘Rugged individualism’ and ‘Advancement, by nature, comes at a price’)

with truth mixed in with the lies we tell ourselves. But it’s the 99% of us who continue to play our marionette parts that keep this ship of evil afloat.

The helm of the ship says ‘stroke’ and we say ‘What can I do? I’m just paddling with one oar! If I make waves, they’ll throw me off. Trouble is that we’re headed over a fall.

Being a christian (the real kind) gives me a unique perspective. When I point out the fall ahead or the fact that

the ones in the back of the boat are mal-treated or that the boat is leaking in the middle and we need to take the time

to patch it up or we’ll all drown and you say I’m overreacting, my biggest concern is not that you listen, but that I did EVERYTHING IN MY POWER to dissuade you according to the rules.

And what are the rules, you say? We all know the rules. They’re ingrained in us. We just choose not to follow and/ or our hearts become so hard that we no longer care.

Now 9x out of 10, the natural order takes over. Children play with fire and they get burnt. So children learn not to play with fire and respect its power.

But every now and then, The Almighty intervenes directly. I can’t tell which. That is not my superpower. Nor do I need to know to tell you what’s what.

Commonsense, which is my superpower, says that if we repent of our racist conditionings here, an evil that has dominated our land for far too long, a domino effect will

result. But if we do not, we and/or those around us will continue to exist in squalor and pain and abuse for no other

reason than we chose not to treat others as we’d like to be treated. And we need to understand that everyone wants to

put down the oar but our ingrained conditioning prevents it. But mark this; we are ALWAYS just one or two oars away from

changing EVERYTHING! Evil always hangs by a thread. Pull it just a little and the whole tapestry begins to unravel.

Be well.

When white folk dump, we can’t get Angry about it

I got angry over a white (almost white) person saying that I’m overreacting. Immediately afterwards, I berated myself, thinking that I should’ve held my cool. But just as we laud those black heroes who articulate the pain rather than express it, we condemn ourselves for feeling what is normal to feel.  Part of colonization says that I have no right to be angry and that my anger is naturally perceived as a threat so it’s in my best interest to hold my tongue. This is not normal. We must break the economic, physical, emotional and spiritual consequences to be true human beings. Otherwise we’re just lying to ourselves. “How dare they get angry over our oppression of them!”

The Kerner Commission of 1968

“Our nation is moving towards two societies: one white, one black — separate and unequal.” - Kerner Commission 1968 And this statement was made 4 years after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which was supposed to ‘correct’ the separate and unequal. What we gained from that era is essential: the right to vote, the right to use the same facilities including bathrooms, water fountains, restaurants, libraries and schools. But during that same time, we lost our media and its narrative. Black reporters were needed to report on the Black experience and the white papers paid much better. And when the Black papers went defunct, the Black reporters (in their previous numbers) were no longer necessary. So we had no narrative to guide us into the new era. White establishments were ‘better’ so we abandoned the Black ones.  And most of our businesses dried up along with our ability to employ one another. So now we had to inordinately seek out white establishments (that...

BAN ALL OF THE WHITE GAZE COMMENTS!

BAN ALL OF THE WHITE GAZE COMMENTS! They strain at a gnat yet swallow a camel! Toxic...yet effective! I’ll be gone in January so let me leave a few tips: And if you contend with their banter (right or wrong), the truth of say the Native genocide HORROR gets lost in the sauce. They refuse to lament over the evils of the past and so reflexively, in their denial and dissonance, engage in banter meant to distract. Example: we say that we heard that ‘picnic’ means pick a n**ger to lynch. They’ll quickly chime in that that’s not the word’s etymology. They’re like SNOPES; pretending to be impartial but only (with maybe a few exceptions) chiming in on the negative regarding race. Or they’ll agree with what we’re saying but insist that we label them the exception. NOT YOU, BRADLEY! NOT YOU, VIRGINIA! The HORROR of how they’d accuse an innocent Black man (often a small business owner),  jail them, schedule their public hanging in the paper and have men, women and CHILDREN come out dressed in...
