"In light of knowledge attained, the happy achievement seems almost a matter of course, and any intelligent student can grasp it without too much trouble. But the years of anxious searching in the dark, with their intense longing, their alterations of confidence and exhaustion and the final emergence into the light -- only those who have experienced it can understand it."~Einstein
“Can We Talk About How Black Women Are Treated As Threats, Too?” This article from The Root began with: “We tend to focus on the consequences of stereotypes about men but Black women are victims of racial violence as well. Understanding that this is a matter of life…” As a Black woman, I can attest to the aforementioned statement from experience...We are expected to relent to a way of life not conducive to our greatness; to say, "Yezza Mwezza" in many situations otherwise we are seen as an "uppity Negro" rude and arrogant! Many of us have taken off the mask of deception, having awakened to our greatness.
Black women are still constantly perceived as threats by law enforcement and non people of color. We must begin behaving with that awareness, if we are to understand our plight and why we are so hated and feared.
I came to Ghana from West Linn, Oregon, one day when entering the public transportation system, I was expected to not respond to a denigrating remark made by a White female driver who was quite surprised when I politely and intelligently addressed her disrespect. This was no isolated incident, merely one of too many we women of Diaspora have had to deal with like others before her.
Racism and discrimination is something that we, as strong Black women of Diaspora have endured mostly every day of our life. In fact, it is their racial ignorance and false air of superiority that has made us strong.
The most perplexing atrocity is that we come home to our Mother Land-Africa and are treated with disdain, the objects of derision, jealous gossip and ill treatment by our African sisters and brothers to be called Oburoni.
Many Africans think that those of Diaspora had a good life of ease and lived a life of luxury. Too many have no idea of our plight in America or of our history, even our (their) African history.
This is due to the colonization of Africa and the horrid dysfunctional picture of denigration painted by Western and British media of us for the sole purpose to engender distrust and keep us disjointed. We have worked very very hard for what we have accomplished under forced and industrialized servitude. Think Diasporas had it easy Think Again!
My African brothers and sisters, I want you to know that it is our Ancestors who has brought us here to set you free from your colonial mindsets that Africa may be "Restored beyond Her former beauty". We are the New Man fulfilling the prophecies of the Ancients of Days!
This article that is no longer available was reposted by me as a memory on FB August 2014. . However, this is an important issue that those of Diaspora still face today, of exponential proportions and must be addressed. My statement is also too important to not repost. I would hope that The Root would revisit the article. I would also hope that those of Diaspora and Africans would get ‘unsensored’ news etc. from a “Black” perspective.

I have lived in Ghana now for nearly three years. No, this does not make me an expert on
Africa. Like most, I am merely scratching the surface of the powerful history
of the most ancient, beautiful and richest Continent in the World. However I
know more about Africa than perhaps most Africans. I will even go as far as to say that I am and most of Diaspora are more African than most Africans.
I was recently told that I
was angry and bitter; I would hope this is not the case. I do admit to being aggravated
at the willful ignorance of those who acclaim to know the Ancients of Days who display
ungodly characteristics and acts against humanity and divine nature. I deplore
the acts of those who pollute the earth and dishonor creation merely because ‘it’s
always been done this way’ calling it culture. However, I would like to
apologize if I come across angry or bitter, which is not my intent. I am sorrowful
and embarrassed of how an ancient spiritually powerful, highly evolved and productive
civilization has strayed from the Way of the Ancestors, taking their captors
religion and ways of life, rejecting their African-ism. Perhaps it is time for Africans and the human race to become righteously indignant to the
evils and darkness in this world and do something about it.
What can we do? What do we
do? We work on us instead of trying to evangelize others with a brainwashed and white-washed way of living. We cultivate love,
acceptance and tolerance for other human beings. We respect and honor the earth
on which we live.
As many of you may know, I
was raised in the US. Having experienced and know the injustices perpetuated upon the
African home and abroad; I have, through the guidance and teachings of the
Spirit learned and are still learning our true history beyond the false
convoluted histories perpetuated throughout the World about Africa. I have studied
the Africa, religion, both Islam and Christianity and the part they played in
the initiation of the Transatlantic Slave Trade and slavery.
US History taught that we
were slaves. That “Blacks” could not
learn, although they made it against the law for Blacks to read and write
English. This was done in order to keep
up that false image of superiority and 'White privileged'. Therefore, many were passed from one grade to another
without even knowing the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic. Of course, the
educational system in the US, their thought is that “Blacks” were slaves and
made no contributions to society even though they stole our inventions, patents and
kept the accomplishments of Blacks unknown from the World. Black history to this day is not being taught
in public schools. Literary works are still being kept from the international publishing
markets. Their religion have taught and teaches that Blacks were cursed, using
their bible to keep them subservient.
Even more disparaging is that the educational system in Africa is from a colonial mindset of academics that ignores our rich African History and culture. From my youth, there was
this inherent quest and knowingness that I was special and of African royalty.
It was because of the many injustices I endured that the Ancients of Days took
me under personal care and handling. So if you Africans think for one minute that
all African descendants of Diaspora have been acclimated to the American way of
life; I can assure you that it is our Ancestors who have given knowledge, truth
and revelation for such a time as this, to be a light for those Africans who
are in darkness. Not Africans only but nations
of peoples who lives under the bondage of the elite worldly systems and the contrived perverted religious system of Christianity.
Many of Diaspora have lived in
Africa for ten, twenty, over thirty years. The most distressing thing is how
Africans view those of Diaspora. Many of us perhaps have the same sordid sad stories
to tell of our treatment and rejection from our African brothers and sisters.
My African brothers and
sisters you have been bedazzled, hood-winked and fed a lot of misconceptions
and falsehoods from Western and European media, corporations and their religion. By the same token, those of Diaspora in the
United States and the people of the United States and around the World are fed
disparaging and negative propaganda in regards to Africans—the Dark Continent
they call it.
They call the people who
live in Her dark having no light--ignorant, heathens who are in need of Europe
and the West to control them because of their lack of knowledge and intellect. This is because the majority of Africans do
not know their own or true history and
what these foreigners have done and taken, are still to this day taking from the African. They call it the Dark Continent
because of Africans lack of integrity to reclaim and regulate what is
rightfully theirs by acting like them.
Because of Africans disjointedness and greed in trying to recover what is theirs, without
knowing how, but emulate the same people who keep Africa in darkness, chaos
and ignorance of who they truly are.
Why do they see Africa as
Dark? Because this is how they want it.
They want to keep Africa’s people in darkness of ignorance and chaos.
They have done a great job of doing just that! Too many Africans are totally oblivious to the things they do to cause
their own demise as they live below their means in poverty and lack in the
richest Continent in the World.
The movies you watch, the
news you get portray a convoluted view of life for the African and erroneous
depictions of those of Diaspora. Africans
white-brain-washed views of those of Diaspora, who has never traveled outside
of Africa, are all from a warped false concept from Hollywood and Nollywood
that have caused the African to act just like them. You act like everyone except who you are. You
want to look like everyone except for who you are. While they covet what you
have and your divine DNA of who you are.
The news you get is censored,
controlled by the elite class, very one-sided, used as an implement of subliminal
messaging to cause division and distrust among Africans and the Diasporas. The
same demeaning images in the news and movies are disparaging depictions of Africa
and those of Diaspora shown throughout America and around the World. Diasporas do not live the life you see on TV
shows as the Cosbys, Fresh Prince of Bellaire, etc. They do not all live in mansions or paid great sums of
money for being great athletes or entertainers. Many of
the greats died penniless leaving no inheritance only a name. Yet, many of you
think that America and Europe is the “Land flowing with milk and honey”—The “land
of the free”. Many Africans desire to leave your rich heritage to get a piece
of that great ‘American Pie’ of opportunity, which is a fairytale dream even
for them.
Fact is when an African,
those who think they are lucky enough to be allowed to enter the US; the US
government dissuade Africans from integrating into the “Black” communities.
However, they have, for the most part, destroyed and dispersed thriving Black
communities under the guise of redevelopment or with the infiltration of their drugs. They
have disjointed black communities by relocating blacks as they built freeways
and other so-called improvement development projects. These redevelopment
projects created communities of ghettos for transients, homeless and many others
of an unsavory character.
This uprooting caused struggling
black businesses to fail. The history of the intentional bombing of a thriving Black Wall Street are even unknown to many Diasporas in the US. These intentional destruction's created more unemployment and disparaging situations
for many to become victims of an unjust legal system; financing the courts,
city and county governments along with the prison system that left, what was left of "Black" communities in ruin, degradation and dysfunctional. Most disparaging of
all; they rebuilt those areas for other ethnic immigrants giving them loans,
better communities and opportunities they never accorded those of Diaspora. The
Diasporas had to fight hard to get what they have and still do today.
We of Diaspora are treated
worse here in our Mother Land than we are in the US. Yes, you have killed us
too. You have cheated us, stole from us, perpetuate their lies about us. You have invited us, yet you treat us as
aliens who do not belong; just as they treat us as aliens and a scourge in the
US. We have become a displaced people rejected by those who should receive us a
brothers and sisters with open arms and pure intent having no agenda. Yet, you too,
see us as a money making scamming opportunity.
We come; many have been
drawn by the Ancestors. Many have been sent to reconcile the African and
restore them to the Ways of the Ancients of Days. Only we are met with contempt
and rejected by convoluted Western and European ideologies and religion from a colonized
African mindset. That is to say, get all
you can from whomever you can, whatever and however you can get it no matter
how hurtful. You think it is those of Diaspora
who come to steal, destroy and change the African way of life. Not realizing
that they have already done that! So you
dig in, determined not to make changes to let go of old dark energies to advance.
This is the reason Africans cannot recognize the greatness within themselves or
the greatness of and the value of what the Diasporas bring.
You have given up your rich
history for that of the European having no idea or concept that they have taken
all that you are, all that the Ancestors left, reducing the African to a vile
version of them.
You have rejected
restoration of African spirituality for Western and European religion thinking
it has set you free. Free from what?
Your minds have been conditioned
and acclimated to a false religious System created by them and for them; that
of which they stole and plagiarized from our Ancestors. They watered it down, white-washed the
African, demonized truth and reality so that you cannot recognize yourselves;
the greatness in you and most of all the god in you or the Diasporas.
These dysfunctional mindsets
are the results of colonization and the Transatlantic Slave Trade of which they
want you to forget. They do not want the African to know the true history or reason
for their infiltration and control of Africa even to this day. You think these
enemies are here to help you as you put your hands out like beggars to get that
of which is yours; that you already have of which they took and are taking from
you.
Africa controlled by
non-Africans. The monetary system is controlled
by non-Africans. The job market and minimum wages are controlled by
non-African. Your school curriculum, exclude practicals and is designed to brainwash
Africans resulting in lack of self esteem, self worth and hatred for your
blackness. They teach and acclimate Africans to a non-African way of life with
a perverse history of lies and deceit while they keep technology and economics
from you. Dangling their inept carrots of deception that you follow totally
forgetting who you are.
These become your leaders
and you wonder why the country is in the state it is in. They have forced their
greedy corrupt dark concepts upon a nation of people who are fighting for a
mere existence and to stay alive just as those of Diaspora has had to fight to survive.
Africans, you have lost your
way. Yes, so have many of Diaspora. However, many have awakened to the god within acknowledging the Ancestors and honoring their divine DNA.
In order for Africa to be healed and return to Her greatness is for
Africans to turn back to the Way of the Ancients of Days. You can continue to
fool yourselves into thinking that European and Western Religion is the way and
that it is the right humane principles for the African that is your choice. However, if that way has not worked for you
in 60 or even 400 years why continue to
hold on to a foreign way of life designed to keep the African in bondage,
ignorance and poverty?
Perhaps they are right;
Africans do need someone to run their affairs.
Ask yourself, is it them? What have they done in the 400 years they have
been in control for Africa or Africans? They control your economy; they control
the way you look, think and act. They control the products you buy and consume. What more?
Africa has no viable water
purification plants; no industrial plants; no proper sanitation, refuse, recycling
or sewer systems. There is no efficient but costly electrical production system. All of these are the very basics necessary essentials
of life all around the World, yet lacking in Africa. There are no governing agencies that they do not
control.
The entire World covet and
need Africa and her resources of which without, their economies will fail.
Africa supplies the World with those resources that advances all other
countries into modernization and technological advancements , stabilizing their financial
base and economy except for Africa. Now,
what lengths do you think they will continue to go through to keep stealing Africa’s
resources keeping Her people in lack, ignorance and poverty as Africans
continue calling on their White Lord and Savior who has keep Africa a Dark
Continent? Catch the vision. SANKOFA my brothers and sisters.
