The success and dominance of the European (so-called whites) over the centuries has generally been attributed to the oppression of other races and precision systematic planning. The attempted eradication of the Native American coupled with the controlled institutionalized enslavement of the Africans has provided them with enormous wealth and has elevated them to various levels of power and dominance which as of today has yet to be challenged.
In this land of the Americas the European (so-called white) has constructed through carefully devised schemes of deviousness, deception, manipulation, and corruption, a completely thorough unchallenged realm of supremacy and dominance. The Native American through countless wars, dishonored and broken treaties has been relegated to reservations where they are now virtually irrelevant. The African-American like the Native American had also endured years of suffrage but from a different yet more extreme effective method. The African had been forcibly condemned to an existence of forced subjugation and subjected to the most heinous and cruel forms of punishment known to mankind. Africans had been forcibly confined to an existence of total deprivation which was void of any human rights or qualities.
The African’s status as a human being was completely stripped away and we were condemned to a standard that was lower than an animal to allow for the possession of us as property.  The thought of not reducing that status would conflict with the moral and religious beliefs set forth and embraced by the Christian colonials. So henceforth the decision was embraced and adopted to label Africans as sub-humans in an order to ease the quilt of conscious and moral judgment in the European (so-called whites). This opened the door for an unchallenged institution of slavery and provided the European (so-called whites) with an infinite source of non-resistant slave laborers.
We know all too well that the Europeans (so-called whites) had no problem compromising their morals, principles, and religious beliefs for the sake of enormous wealth and power. This can be no more evident than when England enslaved their very own country’s men and women and children to provide an uncompensated labor force for the cash crop industry they were investing in and building in early Americas colonization.

So henceforth with the indoctrination and acceptance of slavery and the opportunity for enormous wealth at their feet they constructed the foundation  for complete dominance, power and wealth…There would not be much of a resistance or immediate challenge to this system of enslavement because of the enormous demand of the industrial revolution in America and for the nations whom profited from it….In addition the Europeans ( so-called whites ) were notorious for stealing ideas and the inventions of slaves in order to market them as their own and reap all the profits.
So I guess we can to some degree understand why the Black man today has difficulty competing in this European( so-called white ) dominated world. We can attribute some of this malignancy to the insidious effects of a system that was designed to oppress rather than assist. We should also be somewhat accepting of the fact that quite possibly there may be some residual damage passed on through generations of post-slavery suffrage.
If we were to just take a moment to try to envision what the landscape of America must have looked like with the sudden and unprepared liberation of 3 million ( 3,000,000 ) plus slaves. Keep in mind that this is the period of post civil war where the attitudes of many were not very ingratiating of our dark-skinned ancestors. What was America to do with them and what were they to do with themselves now that the day they have  yearned for had finally come. Yes this day they would no longer be a people held in bondage and forced to perform over bearing and grueling work for another people. As of this day they would no longer have the threat of an overseers whip lashing across their backs and cutting away through layer after layer of human flesh. Nor would they for the moment have to fear the hangman’s noose around their necks for insubordination or for fleeing for their freedom.
They also lead for the relaxing of the arterial blood vessels in the brain.Blurry vision is noticed among some individuals throughout the initial dosage associated with acquisition de viagra female. You may get help from some motivational novels and djpaulkom.tv cheapest price for levitra quotes telling answer life-related hurdles. This in turn makes the hair shrink cialis sales uk and get thin and weak. Untimely or premature ejaculation is often considered a serious problem that is found mostly amongst old aged men having trouble in bed the first things they will have in mind is viagra on line and other sex pills. But nevertheless, what would they do now that they no longer have someone dictating to them where they could go, what they could eat, when they could sleep, and what they could or could not do. Ahh, this newly granted freedom with all of its good intentions still carried with it much of the old hostilities, prejudicial sentiments and restraints that slavery had imposed. There wasn’t any preparation for the sudden enormity of humanity that needed to be housed, fed, employed, educated, and governed. The newly freedman was also caught off guard and ill prepared because now he didn’t have his en-slaver around to tell him what to do. He did not possess an education, lacked the basic skills of reading and writing, and didn’t have much in the way of trade’s skills to qualify for work.
Granted not all newly freedmen fell into this category however, for the majority of them this was indeed their situation. They would be a lost and disoriented people void of any real direction. Consequently this left many of them in serious precarious situations. They were unemployed, homeless, and hungry and naturally would resort to whatever means necessary to feed, cloth and shelter themselves. Here is where a large population of people becomes destitute and completely dependent on a system to take care of them. This freedom was not in essence an absolute freedom because this freedman would still have to rely on the very same people who had initially enslaved them. Many would to depend on their former en-slavers while others ( and not very many) were fortunate enough to acquire land through the Freedman’s Act and eventually were able to own it outright. But for the majority of the former slaves the outcome was much grimmer. These African farmers worked their land but still were at the mercy of the merchants and bankers. Most would end up losing their land due to the inflated costs for goods that they were charged for or otherwise just cheated out of. The African-American not being an educated man had no other alternative but to agree to whatever terms were offered to him. This usually meant that he would always be at a disadvantage and could never see his way clear to pay off his debtors and make a profit. No matter how hard he toiled over his land to bring his crop to market, the so-called whites would always devise a scheme to defraud him. Often times he would be under paid for his crop and he dared not question the merchant for fear of his life. Most of these former slaves found themselves in a perpetuity of insurmountable debt and would eventually lose the land.
The new land owners would then offer the former slaves the opportunity to rent the land (known as tenancy) work it and harvest the crop while living on the land.

Lately I have been hearing and reading the barrage of negative comments, rumors and accusations launched across social and mainstream media regarding rape allegations against Bill Cosby. I look at the set of circumstances with circumspect and I contemplate what could have possibly preceded this unfortunate situation and can’t help but wonder why now and why him? It’s not that I don’t believe in his guilt or the validity of the allegations. However, what I am a firm believer in is the right to due process. I have always believed that any person that has been accused of a crime  (guilty or not) should always be considered innocent until proven guilty.  Once we have deviated away from this process we no longer are the civil and democratic society that we profess ourselves to be. When I witness the type of prejudicial and unmitigated personal attack on another human being without substantiated cause it becomes very reminiscent of the witch hunts of Salem in 1692 and other modern-day witch hunts.ie: Day Care  abuse Trials and The Communist Witch Hunts of McCarthyism.

It appears as though it has become a standard practice for the media as well as the general public to assume the role of judge and jury? Oh yes, and let us not forget about  this same poisonous campaign was that incessantly launched against the King of Pop ( Michael Jackson ). He was also convicted  by the media and public as well and found to be innocent of any and all wrong doing in a court of law. However, the  damage had already been done and the minds of people would always have that image of child molester burned into their conscious forever. I know, I get it, if the accusations are there obviously there must be some truth to them.  I mean, why would someone accuse another human being of committing an offense if it weren’t true?  Where there is smoke there most certainly must be fire.  Not necessarily true. Often times  there is something smoldering that causes  produces the smoke and in this particular situation it is the accusations…

I’m left to think about the people of Salem who were all hanged and even stoned because of the mass hysteria that was generated and engulfed the minds of a few paranoid folks. granted we are not burning Mr. Cosby at the stake literally but nonetheless he is being served up..

People have a tendency to circulate unfounded stories when their minds perceive something to be that is not necessarily so and also when they are seeking revenge. or maybe some attention. Some people will also view it as an opportunity to cash in on someones stardom.  Yes the world is rampant with unscrupulous, despicable and conniving leaches who will do anything for a quick payday.  When do we start to question the legitimacy of these accusations as well as the integrity of the accuser. We don’t seem to have a problem assigning guilt to the accused.

Why should we ever question the integrity or intentions of an accuser? Obviously we are not known for sentencing innocent people to prison or to death row for that matter.  Oh that’s right, we have erred on a few occasions so our system may be just a little bit flawed but surely the media and public opinion are absent of any culpability as it pertains to these matters.

When the media takes on an active campaign to consistently smear and feed the public with unsubstantiated information, it doesn’t matter what the level of innocence may or may not be.  The assigning of guilt must be swift and precise. This irresponsible mechanization of information is not concerned with the innocence of someone, especially Black people. So there is no justification for them to assume an unbiased position. Especially when the sole purpose is to slander and destroy an individual’s reputation and credibility.  If this individual is not in locked step with them and their ideologies and is a representation of independent Black power then they are the enemy. They can not afford to have any icon of Black power that has high visibility and influence to be venerated by Black people and definitely not by any white folks. This will give Black people the stupid notion that they can separate themselves from the white man and achieve social and economic success without him. In addition, if  Bill Cosby is allowed once again to have his own television show, Black people and others just might begin to perceive themselves in a positive light instead of the negative image that white folks worked so vigorously to sub plant in the minds of people. No more Cosby shows depicting Black people as responsible and civil. We prefer the Blackish, The Hip Hop in Atlanta, The Black Divas and you know those shows that are really  more demonstrative of  the Black culture.

So, I am left with the question: Why the witch hunt or character assassination and why now? There was ample time to bring up these charges in a court of law but they never were.  Why forty years later when this man is 78 years old? Oh what the heck, they might as well dig up former President Bill Clinton’s past history of alleged rapes and sexual harassment and for that matter anyone else they might want to destroy. The past should stay in the past unless of course it has some constructive relevance to the present. I don’t see where this would be remotely applicable regarding this situation. Bill Cosby has been in the public spotlight and performing in venues for over 40 yrs. He has been involved in the Civil Rights Movement, has an exemplary record for philanthropy in which he has donated millions of dollars to colleges, foundations and charities. I mean we are talking about Mr. Jello, Fat Albert, Kids Say The Darndest Things.,I Spy, Let’s Do It Again and the list goes on!!!!

Here is part of the legacy that this Black man ( Mr. Bill Cosby ) has created……

Career: Comedian, 1963–; actor, 1965–; author, 1973–.

It is not my contention to assign guilt or innocence to Mr. Cosby however I will assign guilt to the media for their absolute and unabashed dereliction in their responsibility to remain objective in their reporting of the news. It is not their duty to form panels of discussion which offers up varying opinions pertaining to the quilt or innocence of any person. When this border line has been crossed it lends to  influence the minds and judgement of the viewers. The threshold of intolerance continues to be shifted and we lose sight of what is right and what is wrong.

Black people and folks in general need to be extremely mindful of the information that we digest. We accept or are easily persuaded to disassociate ourselves from our own people based on accusations. It wasn’t to long ago when the then Senator Obama was vying for the office of POTUS and the media began a full-blown out campaign to assassinate the character of the Reverend Wright and his radical views. The then Senator Obama under much pressure threw the reverend under the bus ( so to speak ) denouncing the support of him, his radical views and statements. There was also an effort by the media and other conservative groups attacking The First Lady and depicting her as this angry militant Black women and more  recently declaring her to be a transsexual and our President homosexual. This type of irresponsible and reckless behavior sole intent is to plant a seed and create an atmosphere of gossip and suspicion.

During this same period there were accusations of rape launched against Mr. Herman Cain ( a Black man ) who was vying for the office of POTUS for the conservative party. Mr. Cain had begun to gain considerable popularity in the polls however amid allegations of sexual assault and rape had decided to end his campaign for POTUS. Of course these charges were never proven and eventually that dark cloud which hovered above his head disappeared. Mr. Cain went on to launch a somewhat successful radio talk show and also made a number of appearances on Fox News and other conservative talk shows. However the smear campaign that was launched against him had achieved its intended purpose which was to remove him from the Presidential race. These people are a vile and contemptuous group who will go to any lengths to achieve their objective which is to attract an audience and smear the reputation of mostly notable people.

Once we begin to allow the media and others to influence our thoughts and judgement we no longer have control of our mind. Once we begin to succumb to the pressure imposed by others we are not free and we are not strong. We must resist the efforts by others to dictate  to us what we should believe or who you should support.  We should be more than capable of making that decision on your own. If however your choice should turn out to be incorrect then so be it. At least you will have made the error based on your own judgement not by the irresponsible rhetoric being spewed by  someone else. We need to be courageous and not easily intimidated. For once we need to support our own!!!

Observe and listen CAUTIOUSLY!!!

I have come to the realization that most of us Black people are in dire need of a readjustment, reconfiguration, and reconditioning of our minds and how we perceive ourselves and each other. Our lives and our method of thought are not what we  perceive them to be but what we have been taught or programmed for them to be. You see, from the moment our mind had the ability to learn, there has been a constant stream of misinformation and lies fed to it.  We have been consuming  and digesting this garbage for as long as we have been alive and the dose  has been constant and provided to us in abundance by white America and the media. Everything that we know and have come to understand about who we are and  (what we are not) has been fed to us by white America.

From ancient history to present day the information has always been designed to keep us subservient, docile, passive, humble, fearful, weak and ignorant. We have been very reluctant to challenge this perpetual  pervasive method of negative reinforcement, oppression, suppression, violence and cruel acts of physical torture which have resulted in mental anguish and wash out. Everything that we have learned and come to know as superiority has had a white face painted on it or influenced by white  America.  This is an established institution of dominance through physical and psychological warfare that has been systematically and with great fervor  launched against our people without interdiction.

We have been transformed over the  millenniums into  insentient humans who are void of culture and without any sense of identity. An extremely large segment us  lack the ability to discern for ourselves because we haven’t been taught how to utilize some basic tools needed to navigate our way through this life. Self esteem, self-awareness, self-confidence, self-identity, self-respect and coping skills are the essential tools required for the positive development of the human psychic. It is not a mere coincidence that these tools are absent within most of our Black brothers and sisters. Through the process of oppression and exclusion we have not learned the necessity of positive reinforcement for the sake of white dominance . However, we have  emphatically convinced ourselves that we are in control when in actuality, we are not.  Everything that we do and say and the manner in which we perceive ourselves and others, for the most part has been predicated on what we learn from white America and other influences within our environment .. I will provide a few of these examples for those of you who feel and think otherwise.

The institution of religion (Christianity) has been taught to us by the Europeans and with these teaching we have been provided with images the Virgin Mary, Jesus, The Disciples and God all of whom are depicted as white. We have been taught that the birth of Christ was an immaculate conception and that he is the son of God. Through this Holy man we will find our salvation for he will deliver us to the promised land. We have been introduced to the so-called holy bible  proclaimed to be the word of God ( which was written by him ) and that we should obey it religiously or risk burning in hell.. This book is however an extraordinary piece of literature which symbolizes what one may experience in life and offers us guidance. It teachings can serve us well if applied to ones life but not in the biblical sense.

We have been taught that Jews are the chosen people of God and that they will inherit his kingdom. I don’t know about you but I definitely don’t buy into that. However, here again we have an ethnic group declaring itself to be the chosen people of a an almighty god and we as Blacks (the true Hebrews) as being the descendents of Ham and cursed for all eternity for the color of our skin. We have been taught that ancient Egypt was ruled by whites and all of it’s magnificent structures and teachings were built and written by them and not the great Nubian ( Black people ) of Ethiopia.

We have been taught that all the great explorers and discoveries of the new world and other regions were by white people not the Ancient great Black people of Africa. The discovery of the Americas has been credited to Christopher Columbus even though Ancient Africans had already left their footprint here long before he was born. History depicts Columbus as a great explorer but neglects to reveal the barbaric nature of his exploitation and cruel and viscous treatment of the indigenous people of the Americas.  http://campuspages.cvcc.vccs.edu/polis/2003/nonfiction/whitney%20dewitt.amlit.htm

How is it that America celebrates a holiday in recognition of this murderous thief and extends to us a holiday sales opportunity to purchase goods that will fill their coffers? It seems only befitting for a country that has committed the same acts of violence and cruelty to exploit an entire race of Black people for personal gain would have a holiday honoring a man who has done likewise. All for the love or should I say greed of money!!!

You are also advised intake of herbal supplements like Night Fire capsules and Musli Strong capsules. buy generic levitra In this age and day, it is not a problem of specific region in body, purchase of levitra in fact it is a symptom of depression. However, researchers at Pfizer found that bulk viagra the medication also helped to induce erections during the initial trials. The goals of cialis no prescription uk chiropractic care include the restoration of function and prevention of injury in addition to back pain relief.
We have been taught about the landing of the pilgrims at Plymouth Rock and  the benevolence they extended to the indigenous people of that period. We have not been taught that the first people sent to populate the colonies in the early Americas were in  fact Englands own underclass of whites who were the first slaves in America. These were the men, women and children who were convicts, prostitutes, orphans, vagabonds, uneducated and whomever they considered rejects of the British crown. How about the disease they carried with them that plagued and wiped out a large percentage of the Native American population. Nor have we been taught about the violent confrontations that intensified negative stereotypes held by English settlers towards the Native Americans. Most Europeans characterized Indians as barbaric heathens and savages when in fact it they who were the barbaric savages who indulged in the cannibalism of their own due to starvation. We haven’t been taught of how they secretly distributed blankets contaminated with small pox to the Native American population to see how it would affect them. Nor about the countless promises and treaties broken, the murderous campaign and relocation of thousands because of their insatiable greed for gold and land. On the other hand we have been taught to celebrate Thanksgiving as a day of giving thanks to god for harvest and exchange of human kindness between the colonialists and the Native American. What hypocrites!!!

The majority of Black peoples inability to excel in life are compounded by obstacles that are both self-inflicted and institutionally imposed. There are certain aspects of life that one must grasp or have some semblance of in order to be the slightest bit relevant in this world. The absence of education and knowledge places one at the mercy of others because it leaves one irrelevant, at a disadvantage and vulnerable. It will more often than not handicap your ability to progress or to achieve your goals.

The basic necessities needed to forge through life are simple and far from complex. We are continuously making life much more difficult than it needs to be. If we were to just gather ourselves and map out a simple course of action needed to accomplish some very basic goals we would be able to position ourselves for greater opportunities. But this however is something that a large majority of us black folk fail to do. We have become so accustomed to being irrelevant and complacent that we don’t even realize it. The process of devaluation and the marginalization by Europeans ( so-called white America ) over the years has damaged us to the point where we lack any positive perception of ourselves. To further compound this issue we are void of any substantive structure and discipline within our families and communities. We elect not to educate ourselves because of our self defeatist and nonchalant attitudes which also serve as constant road blocks in our life. We are rife with self-hatred and absent of self-identity which leads us to emulate the wrong people. We convince ourselves that a formal education and the ability to articulate oneself are qualities and characteristics unique to European ( so-called white people ). It is however quite the contrary, for these are essential components required to achieve any degree of success as a Black man or human being?

One major problem is that we handcuff and shackle ourselves mentally and physically. That for the most part is a very disturbing self-inflicted phenomenon. It is a process that requires very little effort on our part which is mainly due to complacency and familiarity. We tend to not possess the motivation or desire that is needed to change our situations. We have always succumb to our own fears, preconditioning and laziness. It has become too comfortable for us in our environment and we lack the initiative to strive for something better or different. Our little communities are a safe haven for us which doesn’t demand anything except for the mere desire to exist. How disturbing is that? There are a disproportionate number of us who want to maintain the status quo and will not do anything that threatens it. We will not venture out of our immediate environment to explore possibilities of what life has to offer. We have become extremely comfortable with the current circumstances and have no inclination to change it. Fear and a lack of self-confidence……

We have without a doubt been bamboozled and don’t even realize it. During four hundred plus years of slavery, we have been separated from our home country, stripped of our identity, afflicted with self-hatred, inflicted with cruel, vicious, inhumane treatment,. Not permitted to read, write, educate ourselves or to speak back to the European (so-called white man) without fear of physical retribution. We have had our spirits broken to demoralize us,  our dignity castrated, endured unquestionable suffrage and have had to accept the  Europeans ( so called whites ) as our masters and the superior race. We have been systematically conditioned to depend on these people for our very existence. That without their shameful arrogant pretentious benevolence we are meaningless and helpless. They have portrayed themselves as the savior and we have become the lamb of the field. The majority of Black folk are very much like sheep or cattle, breeding and wandering about aimlessly all day grazing in the pasture.  We have been conditioned for docility and should we become unruly, his trusted herd dog (police) will restore things back to order.

Try This: Sit in a comfortable position with your feet flat on the ground and your hands resting on your cialis super active unica-web.com thighs. Acute urinary retention is the inability to get or maintain an pfizer viagra pharmacy erection for completing sexual activity. This shepherds philosophy has become virtually ingrained in the minds of so many black folk . He has implemented a strategy of domination via psychological implementation, communication and demonstration. He has pitted the house negro against the field negro. The dark-skinned negro against the lighter skinned negro. The kinky and curly-haired negro against the straight and thin haired negro.The fat lipped and broad nosed negro against the thin-lipped and narrow nosed negro.The ignorant and inarticulate negro against the educated and articulate  negro. This strategy has been adopted and implemented to perfection and the majority of us have become afflicted with it. The concept is to obliquely systematically divide and conquer. It is called The Willie Lynch syndrome and it has encapsulated us by design, we just don’t know it. We need to wake up out of our stupor and realize that in order to remove these restraints we must liberate our minds and transform our attitudes. We must construct and embrace a rejuvenated renaissance within the Black communities and Black culture. Otherwise we will forever roam the pastures and graze among the grasses of ignorance.
