It has all to do with the definition of what it means to be a man. Because an oppressor recognizes that it is far more likely that it is the male of the species whose going to resist domination - Dr Amos Wilson

IMG: Its not because I'm black, Its because they are white
This concept should be understood as pointing out how, for centuries, Africans as a people have been beaten and killed to program them to reject their own culture and their own identity and to place the blame for that situation on THEMSELVES, in many various ways, and even through language.
But I assure you, its not me, it is them.

BLOG: Out of the lions den. Into ... who knows.
The issues of race are highly charged. Speaking out about it can get you hurt.
As I find the thin line that is "treadable", as I aim to leave US behind, I will
catalog my experiences as they occur.
First catalog - I will rewrite the earlier, de-published article on my friend pulling a gun on me,
but first I think there should be some preliminary warnings:
Do Not Trust "White" People
Do Not Seek Approval From White People
First orders of business. Understand that these are social/class labels, not genetic identifiers.
Now, I don't mean to create division (oops).
There are multiple reasons I state these two directives.
One, is that if you follow this site, you will know that it focuses heavily
on the subliminal programming agents used by white supremacy to ensure
racial[class/cultural] imbalance.
Look at what I just said.
I'm not fucking with you.
Read it again.
Again.
Now listen.
Outside of a small community of fairly well-to-do people
who think of themselves as 'conscious',
(which is impossible if they aren't actually screaming out about this injustice),
most people are 'not conscious'.
What this means is that much of their personality, many of their decisions,
much of their ability to interpret and remember information, is deferred to
subconscious activity.
Now, I don't know how subconscious shit works, but I do know this:
There are people who actively prefer to live in illusion than face reality.
Often these are people who have suffered abuse, poor circumstance, etc.
In their eyes they simply put off the death of a loved one they experienced years ago,
or consciously refuse to let go of regret for not doing certain things, or perhaps
truly have something to hide, some dark secret, whatever.
Now, I did not warn against trusting white people that preferred to live in illusion:
a majority of people prefer to live in illusions, with a smaller number NEEDING it
I will illustrate what lead me to this conclusion after some food and a bath.
---
Ok, the experience I just left, with "white" people that I had known for over a decade,
deteriorated so quickly that I had a lot of learning to do. However, one of the last
things said to me would make it all perfectly clear: "Everyone was sleeping with a gun!"
(Except for me.)
So I, as an unarmed person, somehow sparked fear into a group of whites who had guns.
How? By asking them questions, talking to them, which apparently made them think I
was smarter than them, except that when they talked about things they experienced,
or knew about, I would listen, and acknowledge, but, they simply couldn't do the same for me.
Rarely.
EXCEPT if it were with computers, which they needed fixed, but still, they would show their
distrust in my experience with the intonation in their second guesses.
I think I was actually given the #WhiteNod so much in that relationship, that it became their
habit.

LNK: Gallop Polls - Race Relations Historical Trends
"Are you very satisfied, somewhat satisfied, somewhat dissatisfied, or very dissatisfied with the way blacks are treated? Do you think black relations will always be a problem for the U.S., or will a solution eventually be worked out?"
This page contains various polls from different segments of the American populace over decades.

Black Manhood in an Age of Colonial Oppression - Part 2
This a follow-up to the Blog Purpose - Revolution or Annihilation.
First I want to state that I do not claim to know what Manhood is, or that I am the True definition of a Man.
Simultaneously I do not wish to deride any men of color who are providing for their families, or NOT, who are incarcerated, or NOT, that is not the purpose of these writings.
What I intend is a discussion of what Manhood IS, which I believe must be addressed with several contexts in mind. First of all is an education of what has influenced people of color - which I believe is explained by a study of propaganda and psychological warfare.
It must be understood that the nationalities that reside in America that did not choose to go there constitute a sub-culture, one that is oppressed, and not in its original form; nor is it even in a form of any type of equilibrium or harmony.
That Manhood for most constitutes unabashed confidence, displays of strength, and dominance, is shown in the idealized Hollywood man, which I believe has been the role model for American Men for generations.
But is it the Ideal Man that they are showing, or is it the Ideal "White" Man?
To be clear, I intend for these messages to primarily reach people of color; for it is necessary.
For anyone else, you are invited to learn and participate however, know that many things
you read on this site may make you quite angry. While that is not of my concern, nor my intention,
know that all that I can upset in you is your emotions, and disrupt your view of how the world works,
while what I assert is a matter of life and death to my intended audience.
This information frankly is not directed towards anyone not of color; for their own responsibility is to understand this information and to tell their own people.
The most difficult thing represented by this site, is that you may have to change your life, change your way of thinking, change your perspective, change your friends. Perhaps change your home, profession...
If you do not understand but are entertained, by all means follow along until you gain the will to do the research on your own.

Blog Purpose - Revolution or Annihilation
If the pen is mightier than the gun, then the most dangerous thing in the (white) world is an intelligent oppressed man with a keyboard.
While I don't claim to be any of the above, I do have many keyboards, and many ideas. I need feedback.
When over 3 decades of questions began to be answered, I questioned the answers, and this is the result.
Being born in the occupied states of America, I have always had a difficult time finding a cultural identity.
While my struggles for identity and purpose may have been more acute and prolonged than others, it is only recently that I've begun to think the reason I was having a difficult time was because many other people were also facing the same issues, though on different scales.
Not growing up with my father meant being raised by my grandmother, and that meant being the test subject for the first few rounds of electronic video games, and then the advent of cable television, all perfectly timed with the stages of my childhood. Though these experiences created many psychological patterns, it was home computing technology and the popularization of the internet that really guided me through my youth.
There was some jazz, some Al Green, in my house, but I would find a broken EPMD tape in the middle of the street one day, repair it, and get hooked.. thinking back to my state of mind I don't know if there was a real separation between me and the music - it was as much a part of life as food and water, yet I didn't think that I needed it, nor did I know why I liked it.
Some time after I began listening to FM radio, Hot 97, and an underground station in the 88-89 range.. I was aware of the music slowly changing, until hearing on the radio that both Tupac and Biggie had been killed .. but it never crossed my mind as to why it was changing. Kool Moe D had been on TV, LL Cool J, "Self Destruction", party music. But in just a few years, overt sexuality and drugs had made hip hop a big star.
Growing up fairly anti-social I never had friends that swayed me in any particular way, and when gangsta became the scene I eventually stopped listening to the radio. In my early 20's I would ride whatever current new file sharing system there was, and find underground hip hop.
All of these experiences became beacons when I began to grasp the extent of propaganda, and my actual origins on this planet. Even going to a black primary school which showed Roots, didn't seem to show the importance of all of those things, or put it into context of what I would experience growing up. It seemed to only foster a false familiarity with the subject.
I left NYC; I would spend more than 10 years around upper-class white people in a small suburban enclave in South California. While those experiences need their own details filled in, and I did gain lots of insight on parts of my identity and interesting acquaintances, the main thing I took from there was a Brother telling me to look up Adam Curtis and his documentary series.
I watched Century of Self, was fairly surprised, and sort of grok'd it, yet I was inundating myself with documentaries, theories, random ideas. I also browsed over Neuro Linguistic Programming and Noam Chomsky, and even after listening to tapes for hours couldn't fully grasp their significance. A couple years after, I would stay with my dad for several months - the second extended period of time I'd spent with him, for a total of just over a year.
While with him I fully embraced Christianity, partially sparked by a previous relationship with a Christian woman, but also by, well, a very weird dream which woke me up some days after I had broken up with her, and moved in with my father. We attended church, and talked about spiritual themes (among other things). During this time I would listen to the entire bible in different audio forms, and read, and also began browsing Strong's Concordance.
Stumbling upon sermons.com, I would find a sermon by Paul Washer - What a Man is Not - Biblical Manhood - the basis of which is that Iron Sharpens Iron - Proverbs 27:17 - a man teaches a man about manhood, and there is no other way to know. So where had I learned about manhood from?
This began a radical transformation of my mind - I was in college at the time, where we were studying Leonard Peltier, and my dissatisfaction with the social climate and educational model were growing. I began to understand some things my dad said about responsibility and discipline - terms I unfortunately grew up not hearing (or listening to). And my ideas of how 'big' what I was trying to understand was beginning to come into view.
When I left my dads some time later, he sent me off with a number of documentaries, including one by Noam Chomsky. I would be involved in a court case, where several questions of bias were left open, and going into the mountains to stay with a few acquaintances in solitude, I would begin to understand what Mr Chomsky was getting to. An argument with my friend over police brutality would make me look up racial issues, and that would begin my ultimate journey.
This has been a journey of only several months now, since I first saw how deeply this world had been influenced, how greatly thought had been limited, by propaganda and psychological warfare mechanisms.
The direct connection to colonial power and my own culture within a culture gives me an outlook which now closely inspects any information that passes through me, and out of me, because without understanding all of these things, and the dire requirement to pass them on to the youth, I don't believe you can be considered a Man of any note.
Understand that there is a global program of White Supremacy occurring.
In America the main object of this genocide is upon Black Males and Females.
In fact, the actual targets for psychological war is children under 14.
As free as people think the US is, the fact is that the overt slavery of the 1800's
As free as people think the US is, the fact is that the overt slavery of the 1800's
has been simply replaced by covert slavery of many forms.
To that degree, knowing this information and being an African Descendant requires you to understand this complex set of problems, and warn everyone, as a matter of cultural survival, on a whole - not just in America, but in Africa, in Australia, in South America - in all places afflicted by the poison of colonialism and imperialism.
For it should be patently clear - there shall either be a Revolution or we shall face Annihilation.

IMG: The New Jim Crow
There are more African Americans under correctional control today - in prison or jail, on probation or parole, than were enslaved in 1850, a decade before the Civil War began." - Michelle Alexander
LNK: What is White Supremacy?
The general misconception of what White Supremacy is:
![]() |
| Members of the second Ku Klux Klan Gainsvile, Florida rally in 1923. |
"White Supremacy is an historically based, institutionally perpetuated system of exploitation and oppression of continents, nations, and peoples of color by white peoples and nations of the European continent, for the purpose of maintaining and defending a system of wealth, power, and privilege.
The most common mistake people make when they talk about racism is to think it is a collection of prejudices and individual acts of discrimination. They do not see that it is a system, a web of interlocking, reinforcing institutions: economic, military, legal, educational, religious, and cultural. As a system, racism affects every aspect of life in a country."
