America And The Tilting Tsunami Of Race Revolution
Historically, political scientists and leaders are bad at foreseeing the most crucial developments. Very few of us guessed correctly the breakup of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Almost no one saw the destructive wind of the Arab Spring coming.
But there is a reason for that.
Before any momentous catastrophic event occurs, multiple pointers and different possibilities are foretelling what is to come. But, people choose to ignore such possibilities because, to some, it’s bad being pessimistic, and to others, history is just a myth only fools choose to believe.
Then the tsunami strikes, and when it does, everyone and everything is swept off with it—including the good, the bad, and the ugly.
How does one tell a mighty civilization is in decline and darkness is creeping in? When a mighty nation is on the rocks racially, economically, morally, and spiritually?
Look closely and what you see is decadence, rot, and self-destruction.
The respect afforded to law and order has declined sharply, except in the ignorant and phone speeches of our politicians.
Law enforcement agencies have demonstrated that some animals are more equal than others. The FBI is a shadow of its formal self, far from being trustworthy, with many of its former and current agents neck deep in partisan politics. Local police departments have become the devil’s bastion of brutality and murder. They reek with corruption and remarkable in condoning lawlessness perpetrated by some of their officers.
American prisons are bubbling with record numbers of youthful Americans, the majority of whom passed as the fruit flies of the rising drug trade, while the untouchable big bumblebees that herald the drug and crime syndicates flaunt their wealth and wares with reckless impunity.
In the committee of developed nations of the world, America sits as the indisputable number one king of crime in all indices. No day passes without our newscast headlining chilling stories of grotesque abuse of children, sexual assaults, grisly murders, mass shooting and killings at the job site and public places, and worse.
Racism has never been this virulent as it is recently. Racist cops are on a killing spree; the first to kill a black person is a hero because they know if push comes to shoves, they will get sent away from the job with paid leave or at worst, get a really weak sentence.
We see the Freemen, the small but dangerous Montana cult, whose diabolic leaders preached that African-Americans and other people of color are naturally immoral and dumb, that Jews are the bonafide “children of Satan,” and that northern Europeans and their descendants are the “chosen sons of God.”
This group and others like the Klu Klux Klan, Aryan Nation, the skinheads, etc., are stockpiling arms for what they say is an imminent race war that will occur before Jesus returns.
But the FBI and local law enforcement are afraid to take them on, especially since the disastrous encounter with the Randy Weaver group at Ruby Ridge, and the David Koresh cult that happened in Waco, Texas.
Open and official coddling of these groups, coupled with the current economic realities means that the race war these white supremacists predict could most likely come into fruition.
We know that these aren’t the type of predictions most Americans want to hear, but that’s the reality. So black people must ante up and be prepared to assume control of their destiny. America as it is today is a political Titanic sailing towards a revolutionary iceberg of unprecedented destruction.
There is fear everywhere. No one feels a 100% safe anymore. Panicked consumers are stockpiling foods, weapons, and toilet paper, and riots and violent protests are getting larger and worse than ever before. Ordinary commerce has ground to an abrupt halt, workers losing jobs in droves, and investors are not finding safe assets. The government response is ineffective and inconsistent, even as political factionalism and party politics assume importance above national ideology and public interest. Everything is upside down.
These were the pointers and facts of revolutionary France in the year 1789-1790 as it is with America today. The leaders of Greece, Rome, the British Empire, the Third Reich, etc., never saw the rot and decay in the system until the curtains finally fell. Sorry, the revolution is no longer approaching…it is here now, and it’s time for black people to rise to the challenge before it all boils over.
5 Things Affecting Black People In America
The past few years have seen the United States, the bastion of imperialism, and leading world power engulfed in a highly radicalized social warfare. The urban insurrection that brings with it thousands of masses into the streets, protesting and setting cities on fire, as seen in the wake of George Floyd’s gruesome murder, is a clear explosion of anger, frustration, and desperation by black people that they can no longer tolerate and accept the conditions imposed on them. Racial inequality is the norm in the U.S. socio-political and economic society, and this affects black people in the following ways;
- Mass Incarceration
Despite making just about 13% of the U.S population, black people account for the highest numbers of the most incarcerated ethnic group in the country. The majority of the sentencing carries far worse punishments compared to their white counterparts that commit similar crimes.
- Miseducation
Believe it or not; the American education system was never designed to favor and will never favor black students. As Woodson puts it, blacks are miseducated when instead of the educational system helping black students to overcome their peculiar circumstances of being the descendants of people who were enslaved, they choose to reinforce and reaffirm that status of inferiority that continuously breeds hatred and disgust.
- Gentrification
The number of white people moving back from only God knows where into urban neighborhoods traditionally and culturally occupied predominantly by black people, and setting up shops and taking over buildings is one too many for the black population to cope with. You only need to look up the cities with the highest level of black displacement, and then you would understand the threat posed by gentrification is real.
- Lack Of Access To Wealth
This one is pretty obvious. The wealth gap between the average white family and average black family is so pathetically wide as such that any hope of breaching it is all but an illusion. The main reason is that many black people have very little or no access to wealth in most cases. Black businesses hardly get credit from banking institutions, and even if they find the ones that do, they end up being exploited. When it comes to jobs, black people are the last to get hired and the first to get fired. Since the current society is divided into classes, as orchestrated by the evils of capitalism, this systematic racism that denies black people access to wealth thrives unabetted.
- Police Brutality
You see this everyday around you. We have lost count of how many black people police have murdered and brutalized like animals in this country. Even the sky used as a scroll wouldn’t be enough to contain the names of black people that have died unnecessarily in the hands of law enforcement. The recent murder of George Floyd and the national revolt and violence that follows it is the awakening black people need to see that the revolution is here and it’s time we take power or die doing nothing.
In American Politics, The Black Vote Matters, But Black Lives Don’t
Politics in America is race-based. Politicians are smooth talkers, players and will dance naked on the altar of false love if that will swing votes their way. This is how the game is being played everywhere, and America is a bastion of dubious politics.
When it is election time, you see the Democrats pandering towards black people and canvassing for their vote like their lives depend on it. Dr. Claud Anderson couldn’t have said it any better than he did in his 1995 interview; the Democrats and Republicans are just two sides of the same coin of deception—two parties that have hijacked and mastered the art of exploiting the power of the black vote to benefit everyone else but the black population.
When Joe Biden’s emotional appeal saw black people in South Carolina giving him the votes that turned out to be instrumental in his victory over Bernie Sanders during the Democratic presidential primary, we were not surprised at all. Yes, the Obama effect did play a role but the fact remains that people are so easy to sway and play during election season. Otherwise, how could we have forgotten so soon that this same old Joe was the man who, in 1994, helped to elongate the prison sentencing for which black people are the major victims of incarceration today? Now, he cares about black people (for their votes) but doesn’t care about the black people who have rotted away in jailhouses and prisons all over the country.
Not to be outdone by the Democrats, Donald Trump and his Republican party turned on their con strategy when he was nominated and the Senate confirmed General Charles Q. Brown as the next Air Force Chief of Staff; the first-ever black man to assume the post. Well, we must admit, he might’ve gotten some people in the black community to feel happy, but we’re not impressed. This is the same unrepentant Donald Trump who refused to address the nation for days following the protests in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death. Same Trump who still refused to criminalize police brutality in his recently signed Executive Order against police “chokehold” tactics, whereas, black people are the major victims.
As we can see, the two parties, notwithstanding the spectrum you belong, are exploiters that recycle the same strategies to woo the black vote for selfish purposes but care less about the general conditions of black people. This is one of the main reasons many black people don’t turn up at election booths during elections. It makes sense because it’s useless voting when you know your vote doesn’t count regarding how you’re being treated as a race and no one has actually given you anything to vote for.
So, what do black voters want?
Most likely a real plan that disproportionately ADVANTAGES black people in regards to all main points listed above. Black people were/are disproportionately disadvantaged, so something in the complete reverse.
Black people are disproportionately in prison, now they need to be disproportionately OUT of prison. Sentences need to be commuted, records need to be expunged, free/pardon political prisoners, etc.
A “black lives matter” type of law needs to be in effect… police that murder unarmed black people need to be punished to the fullest extent, in the form of life in prison or capital punishment.
Debts need to be cleared (no loopholes/eligibility requirements – and we know student loan debt cancellation is being talked about). Banks need to lend more specifically to black businesses, no high-interest rates, etc. More money for black businesses, in the form of grants preferably.
The funding, money, and resources that go into wealthy white schools need to go into black schools/schools in predominantly black areas.
The money and land that is necessary for black people to establish our economic base and start our industries need to be given as well.
Reparations (to the Descendants of American slaves) in the form of money needs to be paid. And that’s not the end of Reparations, that’s just one part… TRILLIONS are owed…the bill is due. If there was nothing wrong with Lincoln paying slaveowners reparations when the trade was abolished and their slaves freed, nothing should stop the descendants of those slaves who endured 400 years of inhumanity and suffering from getting compensated in full in these days and times.
We need politicians to REALLY address things in a way that isn’t piecemeal and incremental. We’re talking about a complete overhaul of the system. It might sound crazy (even though we don’t think it is) but black people are owed and the bill is long overdue.
Once a candidate pledges those things among others and cleans up their mess, it’ll be no problem to go to the polls. If not, then they can kiss this black vote and many other black votes goodbye.
Top 3 Lessons Black Entrepreneurs Can Learn From Reparations And Tangibles 2020
We already said, the bill is due and must be paid. But, here are some take-home points from reparations that black creative professionals and business-minded folks should have up their sleeves;
- You Should Always Have An Agenda
Even the devil has one and you should. A man who has no plan and a set of goals have already planned to fail, and what a fall would that be.
- You Should Always Put Your Own Interests Ahead Of Others
Love your neighbor as yourself (not more than yourself) is a cardinal principle we were taught in Bible. If, in this racially charged and class society you think the interest of others should come first before yours, you will forever find yourself at the tail end of economic disappointment. No one of any other race will put your economic interest first before their own in an America so divided.
- You Should Always Demand Tangibles Up Front
That’s one sure way of adding value to your person and hustle.
The Democratic Circus
If you want to have a better understanding of how politicians think and see the black population, don’t bother reading too much; look into the Democratic party setup. If not for how serious it can get, seeing some of the candidates tacitly and overly blaming the black community for their failures in the recently concluded Democratic Presidential primaries, it’s like watching a circus show.
Imagine Kamala Harris, a former cop wanting to be President. She could not find it in herself to book corrupt cops and never questioned the overly corrupt and rottenly racist criminal justice system when she was in the position to do so. Instead, she fought with all she had to keep oppressed people in prison, and now, she wants to be the President of a country that’s practically a political prison so she can be the chief guard.
Pete Buttigieg was another member of the Democratic circus that failed to win the black vote during the primaries because he failed to chart a clear cause for racial justice. When you lie to the people you’re trying to convince by taking pictures from Kenya to mean an African-American mother and child that support your hastily put together so-called “The Douglass Plan,” and also lying that African-American leaders endorse the plan when it turns out they did not, you don’t expect anyone to take you seriously. But guess what; he started blaming a nonexistent black homophobia as the reason why he couldn’t secure black votes.
Yes, the tired excuse of so-called “homophobia” for why you didn’t get enough black support. We saw this coming a mile away. Blame the black people who didn’t support you since there’s this false narrative that black people are this extremely “homophobic” group of people.
Between Bernie Sanders falsely using Public Enemy, Tom Steyer dancing to “Back That Azz Up” and Bloomberg going to black churches, we don’t know whose pandering is worse. This shows how politicians view black people. Bloomberg calling Cory Booker “well-spoken,” a mockery on the latter’s intelligence just goes to show what these guys think about black people. Well, we expected less from a Democratic political circus show that started with dozens of ambitious candidates who have all dropped out for the Dem establishment anointed one…
Enter “Jim Crow Joe”
Yes, Joe Biden who wasn’t all that old in the better part of his sinful political career. Joe Biden, the man whose efforts back in ‘94 ensured that thousands of black youths spend long enough time in incarceration today. He was the dark angel that encouraged Reagan to ramp up mass incarceration. Biden was the political hand used to further establish the phantom of white supremacists in the sham war on drugs.
Don’t be fooled by Joe taking a knee for George Floyd; he is anti-black just as much as the average Klu Klux Klan is. Hear him speak;
“…I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.”
There’s more to that statement but that about sums up how anti-black he is. He doesn’t care about blacks reparations because he doesn’t care about black people. He either needs to get behind Reparations or lose the election.
Speaking of the Ku Klux Klan, there has been a photo of Joe Biden and Robert Byrd floating around online. Robert Byrd was in fact a part of the KKK. There’s a saying “Birds of a feather flock together.”
This is a man who in 1992 sponsored a bill that has contributed to the mass incarceration and police brutality America is witnessing today, and he savors the moment the bill was read and was to be implemented.
The bill does “everything but HANG people for jaywalking”… Those were his words.
Biden said that he didn’t want his children to grow up ‘in a racial jungle’. Those were also his words.
It’s so unfortunate that we now find ourselves in a complicated position where we have to choose between Donald Trump and Joe Biden—two sides of the same coin.
How does a white man tell a black man who “ain’t black”?? Black people choosing between him or Trump is really a matter of choosing which slave master you like the best.
Biden has nothing to offer black people and that’s the sad reality. When asked about his crime bill, it was clear that Biden was trying to run down the clock. His explanations of the ‘94 Crime Bill mean nothing at this point.
We can’t sit back for far too long. The two choices (Trump and Biden) before us have been cleverly arranged by the dark forces that govern this country to further a greater goal. Whichever way we turn, they got us cornered; so, the only way out is taking action to reclaim power by right of self, not by directions and instructions from others, and certainly not by acting indifferent.
The Plandemic
America is headed into another Phase like the Marvel movies. The Establishment holds the Infinity Gauntlet.
The way some people have been living before the Coronavirus, they’ve shown they should’ve been under quarantine.
People actually have to be reminded to wash their hands.
People have been kissing their dogs in the mouth, playing in cat litter, and using restrooms without washing their hands BEFORE all the craziness.
This might offend A LOT of people, but we have some really disgusting individuals out here. It makes you wonder who raised these people.
People who are CIVILIZED, been washing their hands, and maintaining good hygiene. If you’re an ADULT and you have to be told to cover your mouth when you cough and sneeze, then something’s wrong. If you are a civilized human being who wants to stay safe, try to stay as far away from these individuals as possible.
Asians were feeling the heat of racism here in America because of the origins of the current coronavirus. It’s not black people’s responsibility to end anti-Asian racism. Some Asians are in fact, anti-black. The prolonged stares at their shops. The attacks on black people. We could go on. There are non-black people of color who share anti-black sentiments as much as white supremacists, so no, don’t expect black people to put on a cape all of a sudden. Hold that L. Once you’re an assimilationist to the dominant white society and you hold on to white supremacist views, you’re no friend of black people.
Sounds like social distancing is a pretext to arrest black people. This really isn’t much different than stop and frisk. White people were given free masks while black people were given free harassment.
If social distancing is supposed to be enforced, why is it more so enforced with one race over another? Oh, wait…the NYPD is perhaps wired to discriminate against black people in social distancing enforcement.
A quick Google search on Bill Gates and this whole COVID-19 plandemic will show that he has decided to be one of main figures to speak on vaccinations and population control. What does this have to do with the targeting of black people? Let’s connect the dots shall we. Bill Gates’ father, Bill Gates Sr. served on the board of Planned Parenthood. Bill Gates Sr. was part of the beginning stages of the Eugenics movement. It’s no wonder Bill Gates has such an interest in vaccinations. The apple doesn’t fall from the tree. Eugenicists have a deep history of anti-black racism. Of course they want black people to try out the vaccine first. Bill Gates and his wife could be considered eugenicists.
White Supremacy Is An Organism That Adapts To Whatever The Environment Is
DO NOT. DO NOT… get fooled by the protests and all of the camaraderie and “unity” taking place right now. Unemployment is high right now and sports aren’t on. If people had their jobs and sports was on, damn near half of these protests would NOT be taking place.
Once again, racism/white supremacy is an organism that adapts to whatever the environment is. In other words, as Neely Fuller said, it is taking BOTH SIDES of the argument. It seems to be acquiescing because Black Lives Matter is the thing now and the Democratic Party want to win the election.
Outside of cops acting like brutes and abusing people, some are kneeling and acting like they are on the protesters’ side. They’re only doing that to calm people down. An NYPD lieutenant has already admitted that he regretted kneeling during the protests. We can only imagine how many more cops regretted siding with the protesters. If cops actually cared about the people and don’t want to be disrespected then maybe they shouldn’t be harming and brutalizing innocent people with their badge, gun and police vehicles.
Big businesses all of a sudden got an epiphany and found out that black lives do matter. Or maybe black CUSTOMERS matter, because of our dollars. Starbucks didn’t seem to get the memo since they banned employees from wearing anything in support of Black Lives Matter. So much for “racial bias training.” Outside of Starbucks, many businesses have been paying lip service and token gestures to social justice.
People just want things to go back to “normal.”
Once things go back to “normal” everyone will forget that black lives matter. Remember, the phrase and the movement, Black Lives Matter started in 2013. People had issues with that back then. We’re in 2020 and now people all of a sudden have a change of heart.
Put the NBA and NFL back on and give people their jobs back and watch all of this be an afterthought. No politicians are promising anything of substance for black people, just feel-good lackluster symbolic token talking points, policies and gestures. They owe money (among other things) for slavery and everything else afterwards. Power isn’t given, it is taken, and so it’s time to take it.
The late Gil Scott-Heron’s timeless classic “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised” is not only a poem/song, but also a statement.
