I heard on NPR (I know, this invalidates the rest of my statement, anyone who gets their sport info from NPR shouldn’t be posting about sports; but I’ll still proceed,)…this morning that the Bulls lost another game to the Heat. I’ve seen relatives, friends, and associates here in Chicago get so hype and invested in these series of games. I’ve seen emotions range from Joy & Enthusiasm to Despair & Anger....
Sandy Hook and the resulting focus on Gun Control is just another Corporate Media distraction. The truth is; the government don’t give a damn about your guns, they know that as long as we are disorganized, as long as we don’t seek to produce our own goods and services locally, and we don’t value the collective good over individual consumption; we are no threat to this system no matter how many guns we own. If we were united...
One of the Key components of a community is the ability to control what comes into, and exits out of your community. If you are unwilling or able to do so; you don’t have a community. If you don’t have a community, then you live in a ghetto, racial enclave, or Bantustan: areas set aside for you by those who seek to contain, control, and exploit you. We allow hostile and racist entities to set up businesses in our communities and...
Massive death and violence is the admission you pay for entry into the capitalist economic system. The Pilgrims killed off the Natives, and were not hesitant to kill any other Europeans who got in their way. Not even the womenfolk were safe, they’d be burned at the stake if they sought to go against the flow. The Europeans who came later; the Italians, Irish, Eastern Europeans, Jews, and other poor rabble from the slums of France, Great...

It also maintained Legal Enslavement through the courts and prison system, and Spiritual Slavery through the imposition of colonial religions. During the era of Chattel Enslavement most of the slaves were passive and offered no resistance to the system or their masters,...
If you saw an anteater destroying a termite mound, you’d be insane to ask; ’what is wrong with those termites?’. Or to wonder why the colony is dying or in total disarray. An sane person would understand the termites are under an attack from a predator. Why then, do we wonder what is wrong with Africa and African people? Understand history, current geopolitics, global capitalism, and military aggression, and you’d see...
It is all but impossible to impose any control or coercion on free and lawful individuals. That is why the government seeks to turn every single citizen into an active or potential criminal. There are so many laws governing our every action, it is impossible to be a fully lawful citizen. Everyone, even our grannies and small children, commit some infraction of the law on a daily basis. The government uses selective enforcement of its laws to...
Will police now start profiling White males? Will unarmed White male youth be shot by cops who get a paid vacation for there troubles? Will they be turn away from jobs and lose opportunities for housing because they are now seen as a Menace to Society? Will White males have to deal with suspicious stares when they enter public places, and have rent-a-cops follow them around stores?Will Oprah and Tyler Perry put out a bunch of movies depicting...
