Has Anyone Tried to "Count" Them??
Fruitvale Station; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruitvale_Station, a story well told, and expertly filmed; is worth seeing. My nephew, a primary-grade child, walking home from school in Los Angeles in 1993, was used as "target practice"; killed by older black gang members. The L.A. Police, as usual, did nothing. It occurred to me, that Sabrina Fulton, Oscar Grant's mother, and my sister, aren't the only Black Mothers who suffered this fate. Has anyone even tried to count them? Not all of them, perhaps, but certainly those of the past 30 years? I suspect the numbers would tally into the thousands, if not tens of thousands. We've "improved" race relations in our society, to a point where we all, both black and white, pause at these events; then "move on". At least Sabrina Fulton forced us to pay attention to her son's death. And, she forced the state of Florida to put on display its evil attitudes toward it's black citizens.
Devaluation of males with traceable African lineage is as old as the formation of the Christian Church; on the ashes of the Roman Empire. Over the intervening years, Europeans have morphed this technique into their wealth development, spreading it into a fully global technique for maintaining "Western" culture and hegemony. It is now a "standard" for these grieving mothers to salve their pain in "Jesus".
Moynihan's Study: Freedom Is Not Enough http://www.amazon.com/Freedom-Not-Enough-Life-ebook/dp/B003GYEGJI/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=&qid= cited slavery in the U.S. as the worst form of slavery known to man. The same form was practiced, for several years longer, in Brazil. The Americas Quarterly, in its Summer 2013 issue, features The Social Inclusion Index 2013.
It states: "Social Inclusion"... "represents the combined factors necessary for an individual to enjoy a safe, productive life as a fully integrated member of society." They rank all countries in Latin America, and Mexico, in terms of "social inclusion".
The citizens of the United States hold fast to their determination to deny these factors to their non-white citizens in 2013. Politicians openly demonstrate their unwillingness to "include" their first black President. They extend "over-policing" by whites, to a point where "Posse Comitatus" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act questions arise. Even so-called "liberal" Democrats exhibit their "social distance", based on race. During the 2012 campaign, Romney took this message to Israel, branding the Palestinians as "uncivilized". The economies of the U.S., Europe, and the "developing" nations suffer from the unwillingness of the global Money Boys to invest in the human capital of non-whites. We all seem to be spiraling down that same "toilet"; fashioned for blacks by Southern whites in the U.S., more than a century ago.
To destroy this evil, the non-whites of the world must take the lead. In this 50th anniversary of "MLK's Way", we need to examine closely its failures.
Stay Vigilant! The "Price" for White Supremacy is becoming unbearable.
