What we do not hear in black churches is a factual revelation of the true history of this country we now come to know as America.
What we do not hear is a running historical commentary which tells the true story of this country.
That the lying Christopher Columbus and the white supremacist narrative which evolved from his exploitative foray into this section of the Globe was one of lies and deception.
What black pastors do not preach is that when this demon landed here he saw black man and brown man living here in peace., side by side.
You cannot preach it if you do not know it .
Farrakhan knows it , that’s why unabashedly and unafraid he tells it.
That is why they hate him.
We can allow our past to be told by our oppressors which in turn dictate our future , essentially acquiescing to (his-story).
Or we may educate ourselves about our history, and decide our own future.
The American black is cowardly and feckless .
His strength is used for bringing harm to his sisters and brothers.
When it’s time to stand with those who look out for his interest he is largely absent.
How can you be a racist if you talk about the pogrom, arguably the worst human atrocity ever to be visited on a race of people by another race?
Why would you allow yourself to be cowed , or controlled by the sons and daughters of those who raped and murdered your fore-parents?
People who stand by as their police slaughter your children.
People who go into voting booths and elect reactionaries who are dedicated to your demise.
If the life you live is for yourself it is a wasted life.
It is even worse if the life you live is one based on entertainment and lascivious vices, a life which is out of touch with happenings around you.
If you do not decide , others will decide for you.
There are no shortage of self hating blacks who are quite content to be second class citizens despite lofty perches in American society .
Their perches range from the Supreme Court, to the halls of Congress , from Hospital emergency rooms to police departments.
Prized Negros have consumed the drug of gradualism Dr King spoke about. The drug Malcolm had no patience for.
Go along to get along is a prescription for continued second-class citizenship.
Black people must rise up and take responsibility for their country, this country they call America.
This country the European American claim as the country their fore-parents built.
With no mention or appreciation for the blood, sweat and agony of our fore-parents, millions of who died so this country could take on life.
Why do you care what your enemy think about you?
Any non-black opposed to your right to dignity, respect and full citizenship is an enemy.
Therefore he does not count , his opinion does not matter.
Why do you sit idly and uniformed while he sends his children to good schools.
His children are not harassed and killed by police.
His is white privilege.
He has privilege because you don’t, that’s why it’s called privilege.
[Privilege] “a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group of people”.
If your white friend do not want you to have it , consider your choice of friends or your understanding of friendship.
Throughout the sojourn of this experiment good people, black and white have struggled and died because of their desire to see all people live in peace and with dignity.
Not all white people are enemies of our race, of our people.
Let us embrace those who share in our struggle,those who stand with us, even as we confront those who would do us harm.
