how "Rich" is RICH ?? Don't Let Nobody 'else' TELL You!

Figure it Out for YOURSELF?

Ever wonder why we always hear about how RICH someone is, in our MEDIA?  You almost NEVER hear about the BANKRUPTCIES, or the DEBTS they don't PAY!  Lying about MONEY is the number one GAME, in the good 'ol USA,  As one Korean immigrant admitted:  they "really" came here for the MONEY.

Think back as far as you can, and ask yourself if you thought someone was Rich?  Then determine who they were, and how they made their money.  Then ask yourself if you STILL think that person is RICH, "Today"... or, even THEN??  Probably NOT!  Why, because you've probably had a chance to "come by" some Money, and you've learned a lot more about Rich and Poor.  People who stay Poor are often those trapped in some mind-set, or some rotten location (like one of our Sewer States(?)!

That's the dirty little secret:  your "denomination" of wealth is most often determined by whatever "True" wealth you became aware of in your dawning youth.  If you manage to grow beyond that experience, chances are, YOUR wealth will also.

Stay Vigilant!  Don't let all of this talk about "Deflation" and/or "Depression" fool you?

BLACKS: strayed "TOO FAR" from FREDERICK DOUGLASS ??

Can you "OWN" what you CAN'T  or WON'T "Protect"??

What if you can't even PROTECT your Child??

John Boehner was signed in to Leadership in the "Hole In The Wall" -- hangout for those Repoobs who dedicate their every breath to "defeating" Obama.  MEDIA reported this morning that some "black guy" was found to sign a statement to the effect that "David Duke Without the Baggage" --Boehner's "Third-In-Line"  as Speaker of the House of Representatives -- does not have a "racist" bone in his body.   That allows Boehner to "wash his hands" of the Duke Crowd? (Kinda makes you wonder who is the black guy, THAT FAMILIAR with Scalise?  Wall Street may be struggling today, but the market for Black TOMs (Conservatives(?) is evidently strong among Black Republicans!

In my '72 Master's Thesis, I quoted Frederick Douglass (b. 1818; d. 1895):

"If there is no struggle, there is no progress.  Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops witout plowing up ground." ..."This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical;  but it must be a struggle.  Power concedes nothing without a demand.  It never did and never will...Men may not get all they pay for in this world; but they must certainly pay for all they get." (pg. 26).

I also quoted Booker T. Washington (b. 1856: d. 1915):

"The wisest among my race understand that the agitation of questions of social equality is the extremest folly, and that progress in the enjoyment of all the privileges that will come to us must be the result of severe and constant struggle rather than artificial forcing." (pg. 27).

Douglass provided support and counsel to President Abraham Lincoln.  Washington became a "tool" of white, male, Presidents, who needed "intelligence" regarding "Negroes".  His model was quickly copied by black Christian Ministers, who served as "snitches" for Presidents.  A friend of the white Rich and Powerful, Washington was not highly regarded by mainstream Blacks.  The strain of followers of Washington can be found, today, among Black Conservatives, and include the likes of Condi Rice and Clarence Thomas.

A long list of Black Leaders followed these two men.  Those who were alive during my lifetime, include: W.E.B. Dubois (b. 1868; d. 1963); Marcus Garvey (b.1867; d. 1940); A. Phillip Randolph (b. 1889; d. 1979); Malcolm-X (b. 1925; d. 1965); and Martin Luther King Jr. (b.1929; d. 1968).

Exploration of the record of acceptance by Black Citizens, for each of these men, will reveal a path leading to this day, as we face the wanton slaughter of Black Youth on the streets of this country with implicit support of white Leaders in communities around the country, and by Legal Experts who operate as Officers of the Court in our Judiciary.  It will be instructive to see the trail of events and persons responsible for our being where we are, in 2015.  No Black Leader of the stature of these men has appeared since 1968.

Could it be that too many Blacks today care more for their own financial advancement than they do for the "freedom" for persons who are not white?  Many are learning the limits of what the money they chase will provide for them; and we're ALL learning the ease with which White Citizens have brought back many of the worst of their old practices.  

Stay Vigilant!  "Progress" cannot simply be  "defined by the beholder"!

"FILIBUSTER" : "TEXICANS" ??

"Truth" (?) by way of MEXICO??

Try your luck at getting a copy of Henry Bamford Parkes' A History of MEXICO, 3rd Ed., 1960.

You will treat yourself to joyous reading of facts not told to us in the good 'ol USA, by our Texas-Tainted Education System (Texas School-Book Committee dominated text book publishing in the US).http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2012/jun/21/how-texas-inflicts-bad-textbooks-on-us/

Until 1850, the "real" meaning of the term "Filibuster" meant those "frontiersmen" who invaded the territories of other countries, with the intent to steal the land and expel the people (Austin, Fremont, Gadsden) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibuster_%28military%29.  we WERE FED the "ALAMO" version??

Bamford Parkes and Bernard DeVoto are the historians you must read, if you want to know the TRUE HISTORY of the United States of America.  Cracker-Educators and their "apologists-Historians" have deluded succeeding generations in this country for decades.  "History" today is basically "PR" for some Dastardly Politician.  Which brings me to Lyndon Johnson ("Litty-Bitty").

The MEDIA is ablaze with defenders of Johnson and his Civil Rights record.  It seems that a new movie by Blacks, titled: SELMA, is being released, that challenges the "Historians" accounts of LBJ and Civil Rights.   Some apparently claim that the whole thing was LBJ's idea!  A Phillip Randolph must be "rollin' in his grave"!! 

My first assignment as a 2nd Lt. in the Air Force, was to WACO, TX, in 1962.  The Johnsons owned the television media, and it was blatantly Racist (the "N" word was used unsparingly).  As the former Cadet Commander of the AFROTC in San Francisco, the white officers who arrived with me could buy homes -- I could not; prevented by the Racist Laws of Texas.  Expecting our first child, my wife found the Base Hospital to be Segregated: "three ways"; whites/Blacks/Mexicans.  Even though I could afford new housing, I was forced to choose among the most sub-standard of housing for Blacks.  I protested the situation to the Base Commander, and quickly found I was to be "reassigned" to the NSA in Washington.  We wound up in Post Housing at Fort Meade, segregated by Service (Army got the new housing -- paid for by NSA-- and Air Force and Navy were forced into 1940s Wherry Housing).

Then All HELL broke loose: Cuban Missile Crisis, Kennedy's Assassination, followed by the assassination of Malcolm-X, and then by Bobby and Martin.  All under LBJ, and his ass-hole buddy, J. Edgar Hoover.  LBJ's vaunted power over Congress was most likely related to the fact that Hoover kept "blackmail files" on the members of Congress.  Some in our Media reported this information at the time, but most of the Media ignored, or covered up what they knew.  TEXAS was the place that set it all off, however,with the Assassinations of Kennedy, Oswald, and Ruby,

POST-RACIAL -- Act-II

Break the "Code" ??

If all vestiges of DOMINANT Racism were stamped out; would "Racism" disappear?  Confused Blacks from our Sewer States think that the disappearance of "Bull Connor and the Dogs", means that our nation has become "Post-Racial"!!

In my Thesis, (1972), pgs 71-72, I referenced  JOEL KOVEL's definitions of DOMINATIVE and AVERSIVE Racism:

"A dominative  racist is one who acts out bigoted belief.  Whether a night rider in the South or a member of a mob protesting open housing in Chicago, he represents the open flame of race hatred.  Adefinitive ambition is expressed through all his activity:   he openly seeks to keep the black man down, and he is willing to use force to further his ends."

"An aversive racist is one who believes in white race superiority and is more or less aware of it, but does nothing overt about it.  An intrapsychic battle goes on between these sentiments and a conscience which seeks to repudiate them, or at least to prevent the person from acting wrongly upon them.  This often means not to act at all, and such inaction serves as the only resolution of the inner conflict.  Because of this, the person tends to behave in ways that avoid the issue:  he tries to ignore the existence of black people, tries to avoid contact with them, and at most to be polite, correct and cold in whatever dealings are necessary between the races.  Aversion is his most characteristic style of handling the race problem.  Within this type we find at one extreme those individuals who, upon threat - such as when a black gets "too close" - lapse into dominative racism; and, at the other, those who, impelled by a strong social conscience, consider themselves liberals, and despite their sense of aversion (which may not even be admitted inwardly), do their best within the given structure of society to ameliorate the conditions of the Negro.  Aversion in these variants is revealed in a pronounced willingness to undertake social reform via remote, impersonal means, and by a corresponding reluctance to engage in any kind of intimacy with black people."

From the "Hub-Bub" in today's Sunday-Talks, many a white talking head is struggling with these issues in dealing with "Selma" and the 1965 Voting Rights Act, and with the Racist NYPD Cops who have singled out their Mayor because of the Racial Mix of his family.  The Mayors "sensitivities" to the needs of his family are taken as "Insensitive" to the interests of the whites on the Force!  These Cops are clearly in the Dominative Stage of Racism, as are their brethren who hastily gun down or strangle their victims.  To place them "above the law", as our white politicians are too hasty to do, puts the LIE to the claim that 'We are a Nation of Laws"!!

Now comes a Repoob Congress, fresh off their victory fed by Aversive Racism.  McConnell's treatment of Grimes, forcing her to "distance" herself from the Black President, is a classic case of a "Closet" Dominitave?

Stay Vigilant!  In the privacy of your own closet, you (whatever color) might "try-on" these definitions to see where they "Fit"??

GOP: "WHITE-WASH" (time)??

"Crackers" Bid for Another Round??

About the Nicest Thing that can be said for the city of Miami, is that Sidney Poitier was born there in 1927.  Those of you who violently  dis-agree can quietly, and gently, K.m.A!

Wanna know what the GOP is up to as they line up to do final battle with President Obama in the next two years?  Take a look at Stanley Kramer's PRESSURE POINT, (1962), starring Sidney and Bobby Darin.  That will send chills down your spine if you have a brain firing on at least 50 cylinders.  It could'a been released in 2014, but genius(es) like Kramer aren't around these days.

He was born in 1913 and died in 2001.  Bobby Darin (most know for his "Mack-The-Knife"), put in one whale of a performance, up against Sidney as his "Shrink".  Watch this film and you will see, up close, the kind'a garbage Mitch played with, and Boehner  has lived with over the past six years.  Both; Ohio River Rats, Mitch and John are at least "kissin cousins" to the garbage.

Now that they have the Congress, they're both "preening" and trying to clean their skirts.  David Duke, the White-Right's "mayhem in a bottle", was born in Tulsa in 1950, and strongly resembles the kind of slime Kramer features in PRESSURE POINT.  Although he was 12 years old when the film was released, the character played by Darin, at the age of 15, could well have been Duke.  Duke is now firmly rooted in Louisiana, along with his understudy; Bobby Jindal.

Content to be "disrespectful and unrespectable" along with the other GOP Trash that paraded before MEDIA since 2008; both Mitch and John have to "clean up their act" now that they "own" Congress.

Like the floosies they slept with the night before, the Sewer Rats of the Deep South can't be seen with the GOP in the light of day.  Hence the "Boy, was I Drunk" response from Boehner's second-in-command; who was caught "sleepin' with" Duke.  Duke don't take too kindly to the way he's being treated and is threatening to "OUT" the whole damn bunch!  Should make some juicy reading??

Enter Jeb, also known in places like Miami, who wants to perform the "ballet" of the 21st century as he tries to distance himself from this slime.  Zimmerman and Trayvon; Michael and Darren; and Garner and the NYPD should make the Architect of "Stand YOUR Ground" unfit to run for the Presidency.  If not, then shame on all of us!  When will our Religio-Facist Sewer Critters get tired of being "left at the altar"??  I, for one, would LOVE to see a "knock-down; drag-out" FIGHT on the RIGHT for a change!

Stay Vigilant!  This SHOW ain't OVER??

"THE FORMULA" -- "New-One, same as the "Old-one; MODIFIED"

"Jebbie" Jumpin' In"??

Looks like the Bush Family Fortune is coming back for another "swipe" at the Public Trough??

They say Jeb hasn't run for office since 2002.  He's Overdue.  The Public Memory should be "wiped" by now.

Those of you who have been reading The OWL for more than a couple of years, may remember

the story I told of Grandpa's; that described "The Formula" for Racism in the United States after the Civil War.  There always has been THREE "CLASSES" in the Americas:  Rich Whites, Poor Whites, and the "Not-Whites (included were Italians, in the 1920s)" -- who were all  called some kind of "N*gg*r" since the 1800s.  The Rich Whites, during Reconstruction, made a deal with the Poor Whites, that empowered them to "POLICE" the "N*gg*rs" anyway they chose.  They were to ALWAYS act in the interest of the Rich Whites.  Make DAMN SURE Rich Whites were "protected" and got  their cut" of corruption.  Port Authority(?); Anyone(?)

Over the years, the mainstream republic were "indoctrinated" to believe that Police "Protected" everybody.  That was becasue all Whites were indoctrinated to NOT CARE, really, about what happened to the NOT-WHITES (or, the EVNIRONMENT).  In flush times (economically), the Rich Whites were always Liberal, or Tolerant of NOT-WHITES.  In Hard Times, the RICH WHITES switch to the role of "supporters" of those among them who were not Rich!.  Until 1973, Rich Whites were "Liberal" and "Republican".  The BAD WHITES were Democrats.  After 1973 Most Republicans "switched sides" with Democrats in the Sewer States.  For a short period, this caused 3 different kinds of WHITES.  The Obama Election in 2008: the same year the Republicans permanently damaged our economy, changed the formula, once again.  The Republican Party hemorrhaged into public view the ultimate dregs of WHITES who hated or otherwise denigrated poeple of color.

JEB senses that the time is right for those Repoublicans who were earlier thought of as "Tolerant", to re-surface under his Leadership.  they sense its time for the GRAND SWITCH!  Even Mitch is struggling to crawl out of the Ditch he used to win his Senate Leadership.  We're all expected to be too stupid to connect JEB  with "Stand Your Ground" and the Slaughter of black youth!!

Question:  Are thinking Citizens smart enough and strong enough to resist the "maniuplations" by Republican-Christian-Businessmen.  Are we willing to head back down the road we've travelled since the Civil War?  Are Blacks as stupid as our athletes tell the World we are??   If so, the Repoobs are right, and this nation can be "rolled" once again; and expect the "blackest" ones to absorb the pain.
The Society will remain "fractiuos", the Econony will continue to "rock-n-roll", with "darkies" and "poor whites" to take up the slack.  "Tough Guys" will "Govern" the Poor States (mostly in the Sewer Region), and "Conservitive Blacks and Hispanics will be "selected" to stifle the claims of those groups.

This will be the terrain that Hillary and Bubba will have to "negotiate"!! And, trust me, they WILL  NEGOTIATE, where non-whites are involved.

Stay Vigilant!  The Repoobs are probably smelling a "Bubble"?? Obama's done a great job of cleaning up after their CRAP; some, since Daddy Bush was Pres'!

WHEN BLACKS "CREATED' Their OWN "Work"!

If ya' workin', ya'  LIFE's workin'!!

The history of income-producing "work", FOR BLACKS,  is a long and tortuous one.  Brought here for "work" (and more than a little "Pleasure") by whites under their Slave System; White folk expected Blacks to  "work until they died", while only the white man got paid.  Following the Civil War, the whites were faced with having to "restructure" "work" for Blacks in the Sewer States.  Those few Blacks, outside the South, who were Indentured Servants; and  released from indenture; and those "born free", (or successful escapees) -- were exceptions -- before, during, anf after the Civil War.

That "restructured" system was a mixture of share-cropping and Penal Labor.  Those who escaped these two "choices", both inside and outside of the Sewer, were "Professional" men, like Doctors, Lawyers, Preachers, and Teachers.  Then jobs, with Unions grew (segregated Union Rolls), and jobs for "wages" (somtimes "pay" was offered in watermelons).  This system was interrupted by World War II, when Industry was forced to "hire" Blacks, and  Women, due to labor shortages.

Until 1979: during the White Backlash period that followed the Civil Rights Activities of the 1960s.

Then, most industrial jobs that required physical labor "disappeared".  UN-Recognized; but there, starting around 1830, were BLACK BUSINESSMEN who created work for themselves and those Blacks they hired.  My grandfather was one of those.  His sister was a school-teacher and investment-property owner in Tulsa, OK.  Their biggest problem, from the dawn of the 20th Century until the 1960s. was keeping the whites from stealing their assets, and threatening their lives.  I grew up on stories of the Tulsa "Riots" (a pogrom, really) experienced by my Great-Aunt.

I learned to "work" in my Grandfather's Tailoring and Dry-Cleaning Business.  I grew up around, and was fascinated by, heavy, and dangerous industrial equipment fueled by steam and gas, and a closed system of gasoline-by-product used for drycleaning.  I later noticed that most of my white colleagues in Science and Technology were children who played with things that exploded or burned.

We're ALL born with a brain!  What we need is freedom to create and keep what we create.  The Right-Wing Crackers yell about this; all the time, but, like "Rev'm Al " portrays with his "blueberry pie" stories -- they have ALWAYS been the TAKERS!!

Stay Vigilant!  Find a "gig", make it work, and don't get "ripped-off"!!  HAPPY NEW YEAR!
