Mandela’s time on this planet can be counted in hours or days, according to the BBC. I hope that is enough time to brace myself for all the sorrowful folks who will be posting shit about Madiba w/out any intention on picking up the baton of African/Black redemption. I will try to ignore people who pretend to give a damn about a man, w/out giving a damn about what that man (pretended) to represent. I guess I will have to find comfort in...
Just imagine if the European came to these shores and decided to employ the Negro Integrationist path to power. What if they worked to integrate w/ the natives? What if educated their youth to work within the tribal system, or for the most powerful chiefs in there area?

Just imagine if every day the personal racism of a White celebrity was exposed; we’d have the Pan-African Revolution popping off within a week.
It’s sad when we are so responsive to periodic incidents of racialized violence and the exposure of a bigot who is in the public sphere; but seem to be unwilling/unable to see, or address the larger structures of oppression that are the real threat to our survival. Since we were able to go...
Crime is not more prevalent in poor and Black communities; it’s just policed and reported more aggressively. State and Corporate crimes are the greatest threats to our well-being, and the foundation of most street level criminality.
I, despite all my study, all of my interactions, traveling, giving and listening to lectures, contemplation, and observations, and organizing; I cannot understand why so many people passively live, and raise/train their own children to live in a system/economy that views them as a commodity. A system that openly calls them Human Resources and uses them up and disguise them. A system that is destroying the very life sustaining capacity of the...
