Painfully Descriptive Symbols That Communicate To Those Who's Own Entrenchment Make Them Unwilling To Change

The Symbol Of Infinity

The statue above and then the accompanying mathematical symbol for infinity represent an enter-locking loop.  As you travel along the surface of the loop, you endlessly "get back to where you started".  Upon seeing land before you to trek - you are inclined to keep moving only to continue the cycle infinitum. 

As we talk about our universe we often hear about "the infinite universe".  Some even argue that the universe that has all of the planetary bodies contained within "doubles back upon it self".  It has no ultimate dimensions that one could put into distinct end points.  We as men will never be able to disprove or prove this theory because this space is so vast and beyond our sphere of understanding.


I notice that with some people the ideology that they are bound to also places them into an "infinite universe".  Like the American settler who "stole" native American land - as long as there was land to the west to settle - he could expand and move away from his problems with his neighbors back east rather than stay put and resolve them.

In my present frustration with regard to what I see:  People blatantly USING our past as Black people for nothing more than gain within the "American Political Domain" - it is clear to me that there is an appropriate "infinity symbol" that should be applied to them."   

In their movement one who looks in upon them might mistake this motion as absolute advancement.  I believe that I am a bit more discerning, daring to establish some an empirical framework to MEASURE their movements and thus make note if it is in fact advancement or merely motion.  I've noticed that in the grand scheme of things they are most frightened that the emptiness of their motion will be exposed once they too make a round trip around the infinity symbol and thus they begin looking at their own tail that dangles before the.    They are motivated to give chase.  Their goal is to keep the masses "unified" in their motion.  Alignment is more important to them than Purpose.

Thus, as I looked for a custom symbol to express their infinity symbol I have decided upon the following:

The Slave's Shackle


This is not a symbol that I have chosen.
This is a symbol that best encapsulates their key reference points.

Notice that just like the mathematical symbols above - the slave shackle also has two endless loops - when they are closed - ensnaring its victim in its clutches. 

To some of them the notions of them prying themselves free from these systems brings forth a great sense of fear and trepidation.  By holding up their favored symbol they are able to show to the rest of their world that they should not be expected to display the very same characteristics of a free man and accept the load of responsibility therein. 

A person walking toward them with a hammer and chisel, threatening to free from from their infinite symbol may be subject to assault.  If this man dares see this person as 100% equal and dares to treat him as such - all speculation about the potential of an assault will be removed. 

The following collage represents my interpretation of the massive "Self-Portrait Worship" that fronts as a "movement" within today's "Black America". 
Without A Purpose A People Will Chase After Anything And Be Content That They Are In The Pack
