“Take Back The Black Community Consciousness". It has been hijacked by embedded operatives who don't intend to develop the COMPETENCIES within. We once controlled this consciousness, focusing our activism directly upon our permanent interests. Today the "Malcolm X Political Football Game" has us as starters and some believe that this playing time translates into absolute progress for our people. My goal is to hold our permanent interests in their faces, forcing them to explain their actions.

NPR's "Tell Me More" Investigates "Black Flight Progressives" Who Exit Detroit
I would like to move this conversation beyond race. "Race" was the key focus that "Tell Me More" limited the interview to in any depth.
Instead there is a need to talk about "resource management" and how the prevailing consciousness can be made to tune into the fundamental needs of the community as it attempts to retain its basic character and hopes to offer a certain STANDARD OF LIVING to the residents within.
Sadly and unfortunately there is no particular interests expressed by the tentacles of the Black establishment in which they attempt to align their economic and political theories with the painful realities that are often left when they "win" in the political domain that they most keenly focused upon. In the wake of the campaign victories it is the Black community that is most often proven to have "lost" as we inspect our fundamental interests.
I don't blame this single woman who attempted to stick it out despite being placed under assault by Street Pirates. She, as with Otis McDonald in Chicago are mere victims in the grand swindle that is represented by the massive gap between the interests of power aggregation by the Black Establishment in conjunction with their Democratic Party emissaries and the basic needs of the Black community. The continued frustrations of this rank & file along with the expert ability of the expert operatives who are embedded within the consciousness of our racial nucleus are successfully able to divert this angst that these citizens that are being terrorized and brutalized under the "mission accomplished" signs that we are asked to look at as part of the "circular reference of pride" that the sight of seeing the portraits on the wall is supposed to bring to Black folks.
Sadly I know that whereever this woman does move as she vacates away from the terrorists that looted her house and burned down her house during their "Klan Reenactment" her experience of terror is not likely to have her to abandon the promotion of the IDEOLOGY that was in place as Detroit took its fateful plummet.
