HUMILITY

It's not our religions so much as it is our internal philosophy that needs changing - that bypasses our ingrained morality and our critical thinking skills.

Look at any religious writing and you'll see folk doing the exact opposite while claiming to be acolytes. 

Humility is NOT thinking that all of them are misguided but somehow, through our superior intellect, we remain immune.

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...

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.

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 obfusca...
