I have been recently scanning the content from various sites that feature content directed toward the consumption of Black people and the pattern is undeniable. With a steady stream of biased viewpoints coming at Black people is so wonder that Barack Obama didn't capture the 4% that got away and that his approval ratings are not even higher than the present 90%. I take it that there will always be "sellouts" in every crowd.
As I checked out the Black Electorate news aggregation site I saw one particular article that caught my interests:
Tonya Weathersbee - Black Republicans - Here's Your Wakeup Call
In the view of Ms Weathersbee the news that the (racist) Republicans have talked about altering the 14th amendment so that a child born to immigrants in America no longer automatically receives citizenship by way of his birth on American soil.
Ms Weathersbee knows that the best way to "scare a Negro" is to talk about rolling back the clock to "Slavery" or "Jim Crow". The citizenship provision in the 14th Amendment was done to grant citizenship to those who were born in slavery and not previously considered an American citizenship but instead chattel property.
Then Ms Weathersbee goes to Rand Paul and notes of his slip up as he theorized about the right for a private property owner to discriminate as he was interviewed on the Rachel Maddow Show. We could also add to this list any legislator who DARES state that the Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act which continues to sanction any district in the historic "offending areas" with the "Pre-clearance provision" where they must receive approval from the US Justice Department. If you want to be called a racist - all you need to do is to make the case that this and "minority majority voting districts" have outlasted their usefulness. Despite my efforts to show that a growing segment of BLACK PEOPLE "who can" have been moving out of these engineered and gerrymandered districts in pursuit of their own interests - there is value in these districts per the interests of the Black person who seeks to get elected.
Challenge This Type Of Scare Tactic By Enumerating The Prioritized List Of Assaults Upon Black People Today
The cherry picking Lampblack Yellow Journalist/Opinion writer like Ms Weathersbee depends upon you to take the bait. She realizes that many Blacks are infected with "Non-White White Supremacy" and thus there is no greater threat to us than that which the White man does. It is a twin sister to the disease that "Uncle Ruckus" the character on "The Boondocks" cartoon is infected with. Except he is a made up character.
Ms Weatherbee's article appears to be directed at the oft talked about but rarely seen creature known as the BLACK REPUBLICAN. She wants to do her part to bring it to the point of extinction. If they simply shed their skin and join the rest of the 95% Black folks as Democrats or Democratic loyalists then her goal of A UNIFIED BLACK COMMUNITY will be achieved.
The Black Press loves UNITY. Just read any of the opinion pages from any syndicate of the NNPA. You will see a tremendous among of "oneness" in their viewpoint. In their arrogance they believe that they speak from the authority of "THE Black Perspective". They merely turn to the opinions held by the large crowds of Black folks that they have nurtured over the decades as PROOF that their views are indeed "Black views". Popularity is the proof.
The primary means of countering the antics of Ms Weathersbee, Mr Hutchenson, Mr (Ronald) Walters, Dr Malveaux and the rest of the lot is to have the audacity to measure their thoughts and methodologies against the transparent list of permanent interests of the Black community:
- Safe Streets
- Quality Education
- Thriving Local Economies
- Healthy Lifestyles and Relationship Outcomes
- Solutions that are Comprehensive and Enduring
- Solutions that develop Competencies within the People, Organically as possible
When this list, rather than POPULARITY is used as the reference the actual motivation of these operatives are exposed.
Ms Weathersbee was not writing her article for Black Republicans. She instead was putting out a piece directed at the 95% of other Black folks who might show the audacity to note that the Progressives control all of the key institutions in Black America and yet massive grievances STILL abound. She does not want any of those who stand in UNITY to warm up to the enemy.
I ask Ms Weathersbee and anyone else - What have the people who control our institutions NOT violated per the list that Black people fear?
I see:
- Majority Black school systems that have lost their accreditation
- Black "Killing Fields" that are governed by favorable officials yet these assaults are not thought to have taken place in an environment akin to the terrorism and intimidation of the old time South despite being as proficient in their killing of Blacks
- Black economic power eroded as the policies of those who now stand strongest over these places has taken over
In my posting yesterday about an article from the "Black Agenda Report" the associate editor - Dixon said that
Note how vital it is to retain the INDICTMENT upon the adversary (Keep the adversary on trial). We are not supposed to look at the absolute lock that the Progressives have on the Black community and the growth in power of the party vehicle that they use.
With a steady stream of messages sent from the Lampblack Yellow Journalism troops - a Black person would believe himself to be swimming against a torrential river if he were to stand up and make note of the contradictions that don't reconcile themselves to the truth that he sees every day.
Thus the purpose of these journalist operatives (and their affiliated bloggers) is to keep our attention span focused accordingly so we don't ask questions.
Before there was an epidemic of ghetto violence, there was an epidemic withdrawal of the manufacturing and other jobs which drew our grandparents and great grandparents up from the rural south in the first place. There were epidemics of neighborhood school closings, epidemics of free and low-cost medical care cutbacks, and epidemics of privatization of public resources.As long as there is an active conspiracy against Black people based on our race - these operatives have something to write about. IF someone dares make notice of how their LEFTIST - anti-corporate ideology had a part to play in the "corporate abandonment" in which they sought after less hostile and less expensive places to establish their operations then the focus is made to turn against their permanent protesters.
