American Race Politics Changes Every Black Person.

Talking about race relations, i.e. the geopolitical relations between Blacks and whites, from the confines of your homes in Africa and outside the United States is actually child’s play. You can make any assumption you like, and you can actually get away with those assumptions.

For instance, you can blow your horn, from the top of your house in Osu and ask, “What did the man, George, do to warrant such a treatment from the white police?” You could end this rant with the silly admonition that “We are all human so let us not be quick to judge.”

But, once you’ve lived in Jamaica, Queens, New York, you will lose that innate religion in a couple of years. You will lose philosophy when you see what actually goes in our Black communities and the prisons into which we are kidnapped and incarcerated.

What I wish to say is this: When we are direct and very blunt about white supremacism, when we point the finger directly without reservation at white people and their institutions of hatred and Anti-Blackness, we do it because so many people are not paying the attention they need to pay to Anti-Black violence. So many people are quiet. So many people are preoccupied with the theories of the religion of a so-called common humanity. What is common about our humanity when one race of people continue to haunt and terrorize the other?

The issue with Racism, let me be blunt by quoting Ta Nehisi, is simply that “All our phrasing—race relations, racial chasm, racial justice, racial profiling, white privilege, even white supremacy—serves to obscure that racism is actually a visceral experience, that it dislodges brains, blocks airways, rips muscle, extracts organs, cracks bones, breaks teeth… The sociology, the history, the economics, the graphs, the charts, the regressions all land, with great violence, upon the Black body.”

Can Africa Raise Her Voice Against Human Crimes in the West?

I am of the opinion that Africa cannot. The reason that Africa cannot “raise her voice” is that Africans by and large do not know what white supremacism looks like. This is true – Africans have a different relationship to Europeans. In fact, as I can show, our elites, including some notable traditional ones, have a completely different view of Europeans, which is at odds with the view of the suffering masses.

This is why when we speak and write about white supremacism, we get a backlash from those Africans who have discovered the religion to forgive the obvious centuries old European terrorism against Africa and Black people.

You see racial violence here or there? Some will not and simply cannot. Their very relationship to whiteness does not permit them to see the racial violence here and there. What they see instead is what they have been fed by the white owned mass media of disinformation. They will see, not racial violence with a context and a long history. Rather they will see a bad police officer. That is simply our African problem.

We are ruled not only by a coward political elite. We have been shackled by our traitor traditional elites as well, to be sold and enslaved to those they feel belong to the religion they are converting to/ or have converted to.

  1. Right on the point here. There is a problem with information. Many Africans get fake tainted news and should stop watching cnn and bbc. Those two networks should be abolished. They should instead watch the YouTube prophets like Tariq nasheed And prof black truth when they want information about black American communities. They have to get that information from the source and not through the oppressor. But of course bbc will never tell them that.

  2. All Africans who speak of ignorance should be required to spend one one month, abroad in a black neighborhood in Oakland ca, memphis tn, Atlanta, ga, Ferguson mo, or the nyc projects and then they will certainly change their tune.

  3. From the look of things the ongoing riots have metamorphosed from race protests to economic riots with “race” as their mascot… and when you think about it the tip of a match stick is dark at its flammable tip; hence naturally its that end of the stick that lights up and sets fire to everything else. Simply put, America and its economy has caught the fire ignited by its perennial race problem which is an inevitable heritage of its historical dependence on slavery. In other words, when the dark end of the matchstick catches fire the whiter side will eventually burn.

    To my mind, US has officially entered its “anarchy phase” and the fires of anarchy will continue to burn and smolder and reignite from within in a more consistent and rapid fashion from this point forward. The minders of the state did not seem to understand that the race match stick can only be lit when there are no gaseous fumes leaking from the economic gas cylinder otherwise everything goes up in flames. The present structure of the US economy does not guarantee the ordinary whites economic security if anything it has drowned them in debt slavery as the economic system gradually revealed itself to be feudal in nature guaranteeing economic prosperity for a few and condemning everybody else regardless of race into serfdom.

    Since the so called capitalist (but essential feudal) economic system has ended up eating up its white middle class who for sometime were the beneficiaries of the system of race discrimination they can no longer relate with white supremacy. Instead such inhumane acts of police brutality will only tend to remind them of the shithole of a country they are living in; and will unwittingly find themselves in the streets with their black counterparts subconsciously protesting what they see as the economic injustice meted upon them by the “Supreme” white (corporate and banker) elites… and all in the name of advocating against racial violence.

    Consequently, all indications are that the very anarchy and chaos US has exported to other parts of the world for decades to expand its dollar footprint i.e. its dollar imperialism, is coming back home to roost! But the black race may not be in a position to take advantage of the coming chaos to reorganize economically and perhaps even curve out their own state…
