THE CHINESE CONNECTION AND THE USELESSNESS OF TIME TRAVEL




THE CHINESE CONNECTION AND THE USELESSNESS OF TIME TRAVEL


So...the Chinese gov’t is doing the white people thing of not only evicting Africans in China from their homes and barring them from eating establishments due to virus fears

but they’re doing the Jedi trick of lying about what’s being done, saying that what you see right in front of your eyes is not really happening.

I wish that they had at least done what India does; have an open caste system where the lighter they are, the more privileges they receive. Or even the Brits where they’re hooked on lineage and pedigree. It’s all evil; but at least it’s upfront evil.

Of course folk will try and justify the hate and obfuscation by equivocating; comparing evictions of Africans in China with the shutting down of Chinese establishments in Africa because they bar Africans from their places of business.

To prevent what’s happening today, we’d need to have started changing attitudes 20 years ago. But even if I could go back in time, we’d have no media in place to disseminate such a narrative - same as today.

Timing is everything with TODAY always being the most powerful day of all.

Image if I had banned the white gaze 12 years ago instead of 2 years back? Then, white folk on my page would’ve had a decade longer to come to the conviction that,

‘Hey, maybe I’m a big part of the problem and not just that guy or that ‘racist system’ over there! Maybe my superior intellect and upbringing does not make me as immune

to the racist conditioning as I’d like to believe! And maybe, if I’m a big part of the problem, then my repentance, conversely, will make me a big part of the solution!’

The bad news is that our wittle online social pages will only make the slightest dent in the massive media onslaught.

The good news, as there is some, is that when no one is repenting of the obvious evils, the one or two or three who do will stand out like a beacon during a terrible night.

But until that happens, I will lament over our current plight; weep and wail for that is what we’re called to do.

We’re better than this. You know it; I know it. We ALL know it. Yet here we are.

Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION Decades ago, in my teens, my oldest brother and I had a talk where I said, “Can you believe that they’re having another gay pride parade?” He told me that he participated in a gay pride parade. Then we just stared at one another - and because many don’t know how to communicate without language, I will translate: Me: (But you’re not gay) Him: (True, but our struggle is their struggle and theirs is ours) Me: (Hmmm. Now I have to rethink everything because this is my brother whom I love challenging my core beliefs). I was persuaded that day. Today, my brother is long dead but I’m still reposting. That’s called CONVICTION.

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS We deal with systemic racism on all fronts. We mentor; we start programs to protect our kids; we fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces who funnel in the drugs and the guns with impunity then lock up our kids for having (or using) them. And where do kids get guns for drive-bys? (Rhetorical) And do an inordinate amount of crimes occur in Black spaces in Baltimore and Detroit and L.A. as opposed to NY because Black folk in our city have more character and higher morals? (Also rhetorical) It’s because cops are not allowed to pump these things in here! We do have CHILD rape rings here which rival Florida, Texas and possibly even California (California is a dense, big state). We need to fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces! And regarding the white people and the Black folk who worship them who aid systemic racism through complicity, ignorance and arrog...

SO WHERE’S THE UPROAR…?

 So where is the uproar when not one but two Black women world champions bow out from their sport because of the racist media for health reasons?  Their media of course focuses in on the “health reasons“ but we all know the truth!  Did Michael Jordan put a black tape over his mouth to stop speaking to the racist press for health reasons? Did Eddie Murphy only give interviews with Bryant Gumbel because of the racist press for health reasons? When we look at the interviews at the races press conducted with Mohammed Ally, they’re all about how he’s slowing down. No one mentions how our government took three years from him while he was in his boxing Prime! White people, boy! Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.
