Africa Speaks Reasoning Forum

The liberation of our minds #1

This is task number one. It will not be easy, and will not be easily achieved in a single generation. The reasons have already been rather clearly set forth.
The present day confused outlook of the Black people in America is the result of centuries of Caucasian acculturation.

A quite natural process wherever one people come under the economic, political
And social domination of another people.

The ideologies and value system of the oppressors quite unconsciously become those of
The oppressed, even when the result is demonstratively against themselves.
But all other oppressed people, whether Indian, Chinese, or Japanese, were able to
Hold on doggedly to their own racial pride and cultural heritage as the last resource
For the survival as a people.

Unlike the Blacks, they were never completely cut off from this sustaining life line
Of every people.

Black Separatist Who Are They?

The simple truth is that the African people in the United States and throughout the
World are not, and never have been, separatist in fact.
Perhaps this has been their weakness.
They have never really hated the whites, and they do not really hate whites now.

What is taken for “hatred,” when applied to Blacks, is their reaction against being hated,
Rejected and oppressed. And the thinking whites know this very well.

When they cry, “Racism in reverse!” or “reverse discrimination” and “reverse segregation,” they are saying, in effect, that “Only we whites may discriminate or segregate-but not you Blacks!” All-white organizations that exclude Blacks everywhere
Are normal and proper from the white perspective.

But an all-Black organization excluding the whites?
Perish the thought!

Whites flee en masse from cities throughout the nation to avoid integrated schools and fair housing laws.

These are the real separatist, not the Blacks who never fled from the whites at all.
Yet those Blacks who said “Let them go! Let us not pursue them, Let us stay where we are, stand on our own feet as men and women, and begin to build and improve our own schools and communities these not the whites, are denounced as “separatist” or
“Black nationalists.” :D
