21 Harsh Truths Black People Don’t Want to Hear
The year is ending. 2013 will be harsh for us in more ways than one. In the Spirit of my ancestors, I will speak blinding truth about us as Africans. As talented, Spiritual and great as we are, we have a tremendous amount of work to do if we want to live. Darqbeauty, a Hebrew Israelite, has touched on a powerful point:
“There is a separation happening amongst us. Those of us that are “awake” / becoming “awake” are slowing and quietly moving away from the rest who insist on remaining asleep.”
This disjointment, which I simply call Negro Madness Disease, will either stop just in time for the revolution to begin or it will hinder us in our struggle. I hope this harsh but well-intentioned post will cause you to think, pause and ask yourselves, “Is this what the ancestors died for?”
*********************************************************************************************
1. Your own jealousies, competitiveness, in-fighting, unwillingness to support one another and pettiness with other black people is what’s keeping you from moving forward. (Pssssst! White people are masters at The Brown vs. Brown Game)
Tyson
2. We never learn from history because we believe:
a. That white people can change
b. That things are “getting better”
c. God will help us if we just pray and do nothing to help ourselves
d. That just because we lack the capacity for evil, others lack it too.
3. Having the latest gadget, like a 50″ flat screen TV for showing off, is more important than building stronger communities.
4. Eurocentric education is by far the worst thing that has ever happened to us:
Gates
5. No matter how big your house, how fancy your car and how expensive your jewelry, whites are not EVER going to be impressed with you or have respect for you. To them, you are just another nigger.
6. Treating each other like garbage isn’t going to win you favours with whites.
7. We kill each other because we can’t kill the enemy.
8. Most other Coloureds, especially those with direct African blood, don’t want anything to do with us for they are ashamed to be labeled with us.
9. The reason why we fight each other is because we hate ourselves.
10. Identifying with white people is the foundation for our mental illness:
OJ
11. All black people are mentally ill but we don’t want to accept it.
12. We latch on to other people’s struggles as a way to get them to accept us…which they NEVER do.
13. Black men who hate black women hate themselves.
14. Black women who hate black men have no self-respect.
15. The fact that our children are being lead astray is our fault.
16. The black church is the white man’s most effective weapon.
17. Whites despise us with a blinding passion because they need something we have:
18. We are still waiting to be told how to fix “the problem with no name” because we are too passive and complacent to figure it out ourselves (http://diaryofanegress.com/2012/10/13/7-easy-steps-to-help-counter-white-supremacy/).
19. Marrying/ dating and sleeping with a white person will never change the colour of your skin. Will never gain you acceptance into the White Club and will never stop them from calling you a no-good, low-down, dirty Nigger:
Howard
20. If whites had the chance, tomorrow morning slavery would be back with a vengeance…and they would make sure it remains in existence for all eternity. Accept it.
21. We have no friends/ allies on this planet.

Asante sana 4 steppin out, and bringing some truth that many may not want to hear. Respect
Thank you. This was hard to write but needed.
Sad but true.
So glad you wrote this. Do you know how many Black people have gotten on my case for being “obsessed” about the race issue? Last time I checked, White people taught their kids right out of the womb about themselves being in charge. We should eat, sleep, and breathe trying to actively solve this problem.
Enough is enough!
Ms J
They curse me too. “Lighten up.” Stop being so serious.” “You need to have fun more and let this thing go.”
That’s all I ever hear.
When white people get ready to end this Colorblind nonsense, most of us will go nuts. I can just see it. And then they’ll think, “See?! They’re intellectually inferior compared to us,”. Such a shame…
While they plan our literal demise. Ft. Detrick is humming with activity. DoD and it’s contractors make most of their money planning shit to neutralize, sicken, maim and kill us. We are at war. I guess most of these people don’t realize that shady grady don’t need to make an official proclamation of war for them to act as if they are at war. Hell, when was the last time the US congress officially authorized war, but we all know the US has been at perpetual war for MOST of it’s history.
Excellent Work here ! I read through the list and could not find one I disagree with.
Now that you’ve put the truth out there, it will be interesting to see what we do with it.
Thank you.
negress, don`t worry about these folks anymore. we are moving into a new age and the ancestors are going to start to remove people who don`t wan`t to change and raise they`re vibration. things are going to start to get real interesting in this new paradigm.
Excelllent post!
Thank you Cynic.
@
Soforeal
I do believe you are right. You see this every day with more and more of us who are having the exact same conversations in the privacy of their own homes.
I just spoke to a friend yesterday who said what we’ve been talking about on this blog word for word.
Thanks for the shout out, Sis!
Okay, now to address the post. Truth, truth and more truth. Black people who are awake know these things about ourselves. That they must be addressed. Many of us have a penchant for blaming the glacier monkey for all of our ills. However, many of our wounds need to be dressed before we can even BEGIN to acknowledge the mortal wound given to us by the genetic recessives/albinic/Tamahu/Yurungu/insert epithet here people. Yes, they are the root of our problems, however, we are more than capable of shearing off the diseased branches.
1. I have seen Black people get on each other for the SMALLEST of infractions. We “Black Tax” our DAMN selves! I have seen a Black hair care business fail across the street from a thriving Korean owned operation of the same type. There was an expectation of obsequiousness from the Black operation but they want to give their monies to Kim Ill Sell You Indian Temple Hair While You’re Young ..all the while they are following your all over their store treating you like a criminal. “You Buy NOW!” Not realizing that this sickness is of your own orchestration because you insist upon wearing wookie hair upon your DNA like spirals.
2. a: History has shown us time and time again that glacier monkeys will never change. Never. When we weren’t around they enslaved their own people in “Fiefdoms” and engaged in class warfare. If we weren’t around, they would be like the Star Bellied Sneetches from Dr. Seuss. Fighting over stars on their bellies n’ shit (Excuse my language tonight but I’m in high dudgeon tonight).
b: Things have gotten a fraction of a bit better, then we rested on the laurels of those who came before us. In the meantime, Black men are still getting shot by pale cowards, the life of a Black child is worth squat and Black women are still being portrayed as either Sapphire, Jezebel or Mammy. Better my ass.
c: God helps those who help themselves. How long do my people have to turn another cheek before they start going by an eye for an eye?
d: This. This right here is truth. The African sold his brother into bondage? Why? Because they thought that the genetic recessives brand of slavery was like theirs. It all goes downhill from there.
3. Some take pride in this kind of ignorance. Shall I quote for you all the words of Kanye (who lost his damn MIND after his mother died) in the song “Clique”
“You know white people get money don’t spend it
Or maybe they get money, buy a business
I rather buy 80 gold chains and go ig’nant
I know Spike Lee gon kill me but let me finish
Blame it on the pigment, we living no limits
Them gold master p ceilings was just a figment
Of our imagination, MTV cribs”
Really Kanye? Just whose clique are you in? A lot of my more misguided brothers and sisters think like this. With such a bleak future, why not vest in the momentary gratification of the present?
4. “Lies My Teacher Told Me” is not just a book. It is a commentary on the reality of many disenfranchised youths. Can’t have them learning the truth about the Olmecs, and the Kingdoms of Kush and Mansa Musa and the Dogon and Sirius ect…oh no. That would lead to pride. And a prideful (read Uppity) people are hard to grind under the collective bootheels of a white supremacy society.
5. OJ learned. Tiger learned. Janet Jackson learned. They will teach you the truth, whether you want to learn or not. Just one fuck up. You’re toast. Meanwhile, Charlie Sheen is enjoying unprecedented success because of his “eccentricities”.
6. Massa hates the house negro just as much as he hates the field negro. A negro is a negro is a negro.
7. We kill each other because we are fucking cursed. But that’s soon to end. Like Bob Marley said…400 years. Time up, arseholes.
8. In the immortal words of Paul Mooney, “Everybody wants to be a ni**a…but nobody wants to BE a ni**a”.
9. Misdirected anger and anguish. This is what drives albinic fear. The fear that once we get our bearings we will want to “get” them as they got us. Refer back to 2d as they are related and intertwined.
10. Black people have dealt with this sickness for so long that we don’t view it as a chronic condition. It has become part of our bodies…our minds..our souls. It manifests itself in Black women wearing hair the color of golden retriever fur on their heads. It manifests itself in Black men singing odes to the “redbones. It has our children choosing melanin deficient dolls over healthy ones. Black people suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder coupled with a side of Stockholm syndrome.
11. To become healthy, one must realize that they are sick. A truly crazy person does not know or understand the depths of their own sickness.
12. Black people are quick to take up the fight of the underdog. Yet, these same people will mock/hate/despise/use you to gain an advantage over you with genetic recessives. This sickness is an epidemic of global proportions.
13. & 14. Truth and Truth. Black respect means Black love..and Black love means Black people creating Black babies in an emotionally and mentally sound environment. Can’t have that now, can we?
15. We MUST take the initiative. We must ARM our children with the tools of battle. Knowledge, self respect, social acuity..all of these things we must instill in them because the system is after them from birth.
16. As a Hebrew Israelite, it’s pretty safe to say that you all know EXACTLY what I think of the sanctimonious lies of the CHURCH. MY nose isn’t in the ass of Cesar Borgia. Forsaking your inheritance for a pittance. That is like someone stealing your mansion from you, moving in, then having the utter GALL to offer to rent out a space in the shed for you. Foolishness.
17. Dr. Cress Welsing. A pioneer before her time. This is why Black features on genetic recessive women is the end all be all for them.
18. Remember Garvey? Black Wall St? Rosewood? Let us even ATTEMPT to do something and some cointelpro ass albino will come and mess it up. Can’t stand us..but can’t leave us alone. The obsession is pathological.
19. If you want to sleep with someone because you’re vibing on them, well good for you. However, you KNOW in your heart if you feel that sense of satisfaction and one upmanship because one of “them” chose you. This was the same sense of smugness that house slaves would feel for field slaves. This doesn’t make you better. This makes you mentally ill. I should know. I dated them almost exclusively till I woke up about 4 years ago. My silly ass thought I was the bees effing knees because the cutest of the YT boys wanted me and the YT girls would hate. I was content with being a novelty. Of being the “exception”. It stroked my bruised and battered ego. Praise Yah, that I am awake and see the light. And the look on their face when I tell them I’m not interested….in the words of Mastercard : Priceless.
20. Oh yes, they would like us to go into slavery again, however, The Most High has DIFFERENT plans for them. Deuteronomy prophesied that we would go into slavery all over the world in slave ships (we are the ONLY people on the planet to which that has happened to) ….it is also prophesied that we will take our captives back with us to Israel. As handmaids and bondsmen. Servants. They have another thing coming. Oh yes.
21. The quicker we learn this, the faster we can start to create solidarity. Why can’t we see that everyone is AFRAID of us for “some reason”. And it’s NOT the reasons they shove down our throats.
Sometimes I wish I could just alternately shake and hug my people. However, those who are asleep, prefer to think they are lucid dreamers…instead of the fervent participators in their own nightmares. Thank you for this post, Diary. You are on FIYAH!!
“And a prideful (read Uppity) people are hard to grind under the collective bootheels of a white supremacy society.”
Damn! I love that statement, Darq! I will use it in another post.
Darqbeauty
Most welcome.
This was so hard to write because I love black people But we’re slowly dying off and I’ll be damned if I just sit there and watch it happen.
Clearly one of your best post of all time! It may be hard for many of us to hear truth nowadays. But if we want to really move forward we MUST accept these facts. No struggle without progress! We have to remember that at all times. This was a great post to end the year on. Congrats sis on opening the minds of the lost sheep in our community. Keep it up!
It’s so easy to blame the victims for their wretched lives. Slave masters claimed that Africans enjoyed being enslaved and those who resisted and rebelled had a mental problem. Segregationists claimed that negroes preferred living in slum ghettos, going to segregated inferior schools, working on menial jobs. And now Black social intellectuals say that Black people don’t want control of their destiny. Like the racist intellectuals, Blacks “in the know” imply that it’s in our genes. Social economic conditions affect the lives of our people more than our genetic make up. When our Black “scholars” accept that perspective, they might focus more on the oppressive powers who determine racist policies of discrimination in employment, education of our children, unequal health care, indecent housing in segregated neighborhoods, and rampant police profiling, brutality and the free hand murder of our people. Love Black people with the love of Nat Turner, with the love of John Brown, with the love of Marcus Garvey, of Elijah Muhammed, of Martin Luther King, of Malcolm X, of the members of SNCC, of the Black Panther Party; and with organization and action. Blaming and negatively criticizing our brothers and sisters, our family, is just as divisive as those who you charge with falling for the hype.
Ralph Moore
In the words of Booker T Washington:
“I know who put me in the box. The question is: What am I doing to get out of the box?”
Blacks need to look inward at our ills before we can devise a tangible plan to “get out of the box.” We are a mentally ill race. I make no apologies for saying that and I never will.
Stockholm Syndrome is rampant amongst us in one way or another. Our desire to be “like them.” Our refusal to help and support each other. All residual symptoms of an illness for which we were never given proper care.
You’ll find this blog raw and brutally honest as I dissect whites AND blacks. Failure to do so would be lying to the family. And we deserve more than that.
Let us educate by example. Let us teach so those who hear learn. I don’t believe our people have empty vessels in their heads for us to place the “knowledge” we profess to have to fill those empty vessels. Black people are human, in fact, the first humans on this planet. Humans have consciousness, humans think and figure out phenomena. Preaching is not as effective as showing. Preachers mistakenly think themselves above the people; better than the people they try to reach. Educate with love, not hate.
Ralph
Are you an African?
“OUR TIME”
I was inspired to write this blog after listening to President Obama accept his nomination for reelection this November.
This blog is not to meant offend anyone,who is not African American.
Hopefully it will inspire others who are not African Americans,and need a “Wake Up”!
African Americans this is our time,we’ve had 4yrs to catch on to the fact that this is “Our Time”.
Should God bless us with 4 more years under our current President.Lets not blow it!It’s time to free ourselves from ourselves. We’ve been waiting far too long for the opportunity we now have.We must capitalize on President Obama being in the “White House”.We’ve been praying and asking God to help us,well God has delivered.Now it’s up to us to not take God’s Grace & Mercy for granted.It’s time to better educate ourselves and better educate our children,The first family is living in the house,they said we would never occupy.It’s the proof of what we can do as African Americans.There are no more excuses we can make for our conditions.We now have a leader who when he speaks is telling us how to lift up ourselves to the level we need to be.Yes he is the President of the USA,not the president of Black America.Still we can achieve what others believe we can’t.Black men it’s time to change our mindsets about ourselves,our children & Black women.Black woman its time to change your mindset about your children & Black men.Black family values & unity,must be a priority.It’s time to stop being led astray by false prophets on Sunday morning.God is watching and waiting for us to catch on to the fact that if we really want change,that change begins with us.God has more patience than we could ever imagine.How much longer shall we choose to procrastinate and believe someone else is going to do it for us.Our Troubled youth & young adults are being led to the grave & prison by those who know,that this is “Our Time”.Our children’s education is being sabotaged by those who know that education is the key to our “Rise”as African Americans.Education will bring us where we need to be economically.Our spirituality needs a major overhaul.Some of us are giving their money to Churches instead of investing in their community.This type of foolishness needs to stop.One of the reasons we don’t have as many black owned businesses as we should, is because we’re not investing in our communities.Instead we have allowed others to profit in our communities,we don’t have to stand for nor go along with it.This mindset of every bodies angry at each needs to stop,instead lets begin the healing process of ourselves.We are the only race that’s stingy with each other,The more we share,the more we Rise.”Our Time” maybe the only chance get to “Rise” as a people. Self help is the best help.Our Rise is not to oppress others,it’s to bring us to the level we can and need to be as African Americans in America.
No Violence-Know Peace!

Just as much African as you are Ms Negress. I’m a 73 year-old African American who lived through the era of legal segregation, the murder of Emmitt Till, the Montgomery bus boycott, the rise of Dr. Martin Luther King, then birth of SNCC, the Freedom Riders, the call for Black Power by my Chattanooga homeboy, Willie Ricks and the birth and demise of the Black Panther Party. My life doesn’t mean that I know more than you. However, that was a period of apparent unity in the Black community the seems to be lacking these days. There were Blacks then who declared, “White man ain’t nothing but a turd, but a nigger ain’t shit!” But progress happened when our community focused more on the turd than the non-shit. We assumed, at first, that the oppression was clear cut ( segregated education, segregated job opportunities, segregated places to live, segregated transportation, segregated eating places, segregated movie theaters, segregated drinking fountains and segregated toilets}. The segregation was forced upon our people, implying that we were inferior, not good enough to be in the presence of whites. So, as a community, we strove to end segregation. But when we realized that even with desegregation the racism that defined us as inferior and still kept us oppressed didn’t disappear. Racism was key to the founding of the United States. Thomas Jefferson did not include our ancestors when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. The 13 colonies would never have united without the colonies in the North agreeing with the southern colonies to insure that enslavement of Africans continued. Racist philosophy is what determines the conditions that exist in our communities. Most Black children still attend de facto segregated, inferior schools. Inferior education limits job opportunities for our youngsters. Black ghettos still exist. There may be black entertainers, athletes, and a few entrepreneurs who are millionaires, but it’s the white billionaires and trillionaires who influence government policies that determine the kind of education, employment, health care, housing and lifestyle we have. Many of the powerful,super rich people’s wealth grew from profits made, in the North as well as the South during the slave trade. They have a 4 hundred year head start on our superstar athletes and entertainers. These are the concrete conditions we should study because these conditions perpetuate poverty, and poverty, anywhere in the world and world history, nourishes self hate and criminal activity. All I ask is a peaceful and love for our people dialogue between us, Ms Negress.
Ok. I meant no harm to you or any other African here. Our dialogue is fraught with love, pain, anger, depression, hope and encouragement.
Thank you for letting me know your story. You are most welcomed to participate with our learning process.
Thank you, sister love.
Here is what is was called when slaves tried to run away.

Just shows that diseases and conditions are invented by white and Jewish males using DSM-IV to control other groups….just like ADD and ADHD control young black males.
Jabari
Our weakness comes from not just whites and their diabolical plans for us, it stems from our practice of individualism instead of group economic togetherness.
You’ll note that NO other race needs to be told to support each other…just us. Whites can make up all the definitions in the world to keep us downtrodden but the question remains:
Why are we not fighting it? Why are we still looking to them for approval? Why is it so hard for us to trust each other?
These questions are the root of our struggle. When we can honestly answer them, we’ll be able to move forward.
100% agreed. We are victims of what Huey Newton called white psychopathic racial disorder. Everything that benefits blacks is seen as a threat to whites so they infiltrate it and destroy it. This consumer society has turned all of us into money worshipers whether we realize it or not. You cannot worship God and mammon. Black Christians now practice prosperity gospel. That is Satanic worship of money. God and morality must come first and then we would see solidarity in the black community. There is no way to undo the damage that has been done because the onslaught and brainwashing has become a part of daily American life. You have to save yourself and anyone else you feel can be saved. Most cannot. I believe this Earth is a form of hell so it could never become a heaven because that would defeat the purpose of our suffering here to learn the lessons we need to move to higher dimensions. That doesn’t mean we should give up. It means we should look inside instead of outside. That’s where God is. It has been there all along. Satanic love of money must be rejected or all is lost.
Jabari
You took the words out of my mouth. Yes, love of money is indeed the root of all evil. That’s why my family and I have, for the most part, dropped out of the system.
I too believe that this place we call earth is some form of hell.
@darqbeauty
you went on a long one there but I feel you I feel it all ,it just hurts so much, esp 1.
I amazed at how black women after black women will go out of thier way to have the hair of a profoundly ugly people who hate you.
The current serana williams issue is a prime example – senrana has been doing that shit for years ,its a part of ghetto culture as is a code of silence about just what it is your doing.
Now a obvoius albinic/white female blantantly mocks her in public – wanna bet she never says a word about it unless it blows up,wanna bet the general public (including the “media”) won’t let it blow up/go any farther.
There is a code of silence in certain areas for a reason – most serious criminal do not openly discuss thier crimes – even with the people they commit them with.
(oh and I did not care to correctly spell the name of the tennis player I was talking about )
“Sometimes I wish I could just alternately shake and hug my people. However, those who are asleep, prefer to think they are lucid dreamers…instead of the fervent participators in their own nightmares.”
I sadly awed and humbly by poetic truth of your statements.
Thier are some I would hug and a few I might shake out of love but most I dare not touch less the poison in us kills us both.
Great response DB! You said a mouthful!lol And I agree 1000%!
I’m in awe. Can the choir say amen! Everything you said resonates tho I have to admit that I’m not interested in having them in my space as handmaids or servants. And tho this may be taboo to say…I see extinction. Don’t think they would have survived this long without this artificial and manufactured system of apartheid. I think whites will go the way of the do-do bird long before we come to our demise. Just the arrogant tampering with the atmosphere/ozone with their military ‘toys’, I believe will ultimately drive them underground or into extinction.
It’s the best of both worlds. They are destined to be our servants…but they are also destined to completely die out. They are called “Edom” in the Bible. And Edom is supposed to be completely decimated for what they did to the Children of Israel. The Most High said he will wipe them out until their house is nothing but stubble. They bring about their own demise. So often and so many times the albino has scorched the senses of people of color. It’s gotten so that they have no other allies but other albinos. When you are only 12% of the population, that’s not looking so good. However, one must remember that though they make up a small minority, they have the majority of military technology at their disposal. We have seen recently and in the past that albinos do NOT know how to cope with duress in a civil manner. They will take out everyone around them because they lost their house. Imagine how they will act when they realizing they are losing their ill gained planet. They are the kind of people who would destroy the world before letting brown peoples regain their rightful place. That is why The Most High said he would return..HAS to return lest NO flesh be saved. That is exactly what they will TRY to do, but it will not work. Nope. They are destined for servitude, then the genetic trash heap.
Just wow. Poignant and soooo right on time. At this time in history, every second of the day is not soon enough for the alarm clock to sound…wow. If only we had loud speakers in the minds of the sleeping to wake them. Black Love IS SELF LOVE, UN-BASHFULLY and UNASHAMED(LY) so.
Reblogged this on Kushite Kingdom and commented:
Great post by Sister Truth. It may be hard to read but never the less it is truth.
Thank you sir. Coming from you, that’s a great honour.
No problem! You know I got your back always.
‘We have seen recently and in the past that albinos do NOT know how to cope with duress in a civil manner. They will take out everyone around them because they lost their house. Imagine how they will act when they realizing they are losing their ill gained planet. They are the kind of people who would destroy the world before letting brown peoples regain their rightful place.’
—You are so right about them. I liken them to someone who is in the proverbial driver seat with all of the rest of huemanity held hostage in the passenger seats, holding on for dear life, transfixed and paralyzed with fear–and it appears NONE of these mofos are THINKING about cold-cocking this fool in his head or shooting him and taking a chance and taking the wheel from him! This is what I don’t get. We SHOULD ALL realize where this car is headed–over a cliff–are we that damaged, scarred and traumatized that we will sit here and allow these barbarians to kill us all?
And again, Great post! Love both your’s and darqbeauty’s listings of essential self-criticisms. The truth of the matter is, we have to first be critical and reflective of our own personal actions, attitudes and treatment of self before we can expect any change from others. I’ll speak for myself in saying that I am in continuous learning mode in correction of my ways and redemption from destructive behavior, counter-productive thinking and treatment toward other Black people. Let me be honest in saying that it damn sure is “not” an easy thing to do. There are personal struggles I’m sure each of us have while readjusting ourselves. “Truth”, whether given in doses or like a falling ton of bricks, is not easy to digest. Time has been the most important element in relation to my revelation of “truth”. I think about all of the time that I have wasted, mismanaged and given foolishly while being misled and confused under the system of racism, as well as being deficient of knowledge of self. This is why I say that there is hope for our people but it will take time, just as happened to me, along with perhaps a crushing life event or experience or the chance of coming across constructive information.
The destruction of arrogance and “ego readjustment” is something I feel can be beneficial to all of us as Black people. LOL! We all know it’s true. To humble yourself to the realization that you lack the “complete” knowledge of how vulnerable you really are in this system is the first important step you must take to become strong in mind and spirit. My daily prayer to The Creator consists of two of the most important tools I need for survival:
(1) Strength, to do those things I want to do, must do and can do to help myself FIRST before being able to do for others;
(2) Wisdom, something which is needed to make the right choices that will help me to grow and become freer. So far in this life, I’ve been doing okay; not perfect but okay. But I can improve and expect to improve. But all of this begins with rectifying self FIRST before expecting others to change.
I think the time is coming when we will see these 21 harsh truths become acknowledged, analyzed, accepted and fulfilled for the betterment of our people, regardless of the inputs or influences of others. It is the essence of “hope”, the desire for a certain thing to happen. but it’s never going to happen until each of us realize: “Hey, it begins with me!” But I’m also a realist, and know that a lot of us are simply not going to make it. This realization is part of the truths we must face. Time and resources will be better spent on those of us who are serious about getting the most help where needed, to rid ourselves of these mental diseases, self-defeating habits and impaired mindsets.

I’m in constant education mode. In constant readjustment mode. And in constant “un-learning the bullshit” mode. It hurts. And it’s exhausting. Some days, I wanna crawl into bed and never get up. Other days, I’m strong and feel as though I can lift mountains.
Your assessment of “not all of us are going to make it” is 100% correct. You can see it already. The Negro Madness Disease has gotten into our fibers so damn deep there’s no returning from it. As sad as that makes me, I’m glad too. Only a few of us are needed to start this revolution. The others that work for white supremacy will only hold us back.
The first step for me was asking a pivotal question:
“What have I done with my life that gives us a purpose?”
The answer I came up with was:
“Not one damn thing.”
So now, here I am. It all starts with us. One by one. No matter how small.
“Some days, I wanna crawl into bed and never get up. Other days, I’m strong and feel as though I can lift mountains.”

My (Amazin’) Sister Truth
Listen to and follow the instructions you (will) receive from On High. If your instructions are to lay in bed, be still, rest and receive revelations from THE VOICE that speaks to you – do it. When you’re told to move this mountain over here, or lift that mountain over there – do it.
As long as you are doing your Creator’s will for YOU, you’ll be just fine – even if/when you’re tested and put through the refiner’s fire!
All is well.

Thank you kind sir.
I don’t have a problem with any of the issues. It’s something I need to work on . It’s all constructive. Happy Kwanza. Be blessed and and be prosperous now and the coming New Year.
Thank you Miss Mary. To you as well!
I am in continuous re-education mode. Thank you for this.
I meant to say I’ don’t mind having correction and am teachable. Yes It’s harsh but it needs to be said.
Love this truth. you make me smarter everyday my Queen!! will post on my Facebook. all the best to you!

Thank you sir! Thanks for the support.
About 20, a freerepublic thread about a potential holocaust of muslim in Europe, just replace “muslims” with “blacks”, and crusades with slavery, a white male being unusually frank with the innate evil within whites:
To: Trod Upon
My father always said the meanest people on Earth were White People.
Others can be evil for a time but—they can’t keep up the murderous rage.
White people will kill and kill until the streets run red with blood.
Read the history of the Crusades— All the PC stuff will be gone like Esperanto. Deep down inside—the Europeans are just as bad as ever—doubt it—go to a Football game and watch the fans.
It will not take much to kick off a bloodbath.

Thanks for the link. Your dad was correct.
You speak the truth and the truth only my sister! These are the things that as black people we need to know, understand & get over so that we can advance.
Miss More
Thank you. I aim to liberate us.
by yourself with just knowledge via blog posts?!
why should you do it alone?
are not others including myself helping in our own ways?
I ask these questions not to criticize you sister nor bring your mood down(like I could) but simply to know more to hasten the day of our liberation if such a day is to be.
I’m suffering and have been for quite sometime.
but most of our people seem not to care.
Another interesting thing – Neely fuller, Dr.frances cress welsing ,Dr.amos wilson etc
just like the numerous black bloggers like you ,me ,abagond, etc etc
guess what we all have in common – Our own interpretation,agenda and story.
none of us are on the same page -we all say this and that about our problem and sometimes even the same thing – but then you’ll do your thing ,I’ll do mine ,some will have a large following ,some a small.
End of the day we’ve still divided we still have the same problems.
@ Mbeti
It’s a start. And no, not by myself. That’s impossible. We all collectively must start making hard choices not to give in to the madness.
I’m late to the topic but Sis you really bring the heat. Love it!
16. The black church is the white man’s most effective weapon.—THIS<——-this ties into so many other things with us. Like ask a self-professed black 'christian', what scripture describes Jesus as having blonde hair, blue eyes and white skin? Where is that in the bible? And if it doesn't exist in the bible, where did that image come from and why do you continue to embrace it? I just don't get it. It's illogical and insane. I also don't understand how people can embrace a 'religion' from people who historically act in a way anti-thetical to said religion. Hell, any religion.That's like taking child-rearing advice from a known pedophile. Absolute madness to me. I thank my mother everyday that for whatever reason, she didn't raise me in the church. I think the deification of white men is what keeps black people genuflecting at their feet whether they realize it or not. Cuz in the back of their brainwashed, programmed mind (the TRUE MK-ULTRA)–they really think that since GOD is white, then by default the white man here on earth is his rep and there is no way then that we can defeat him. Unless and until this sick, erroneous thinking is changed and replaced with TRUTH, you can't do anything with these people.
In the DVD “Hidden Colors”, they speak about religion and the creation of White images of Christ & others, even though there are many Black Madonna & child figures & paintings in churches throughout Europe. And that having a White Jesus puts into the subconscious that Whites are “God-like”.
Please go to the 26:10 mark. Dr. Umar Johnson speaks about the White Jesus in the Black church and its effect on the Black mind. But also watch the video in its entirety.
Mickey
Spot on! We all suffer from this image manipulation in some way, shape or form.
@nmaat433:
I think this is because we have been brainwashed, entirely. There’s a saying that goes: “to victors goes the spoils.” Without a doubt, there has been an immense amount of cultural and religious revisions that have totally exclude Black people’s initiation of both capacities. Here’s a site that I’ve been studying over the past few years. The information will astound those who seek the truth, as it did me:
http://realhistoryww.com/world_history/ancient/Misc/Jesus/Jesus.htm
Dr. Ashra Kwesi also explains the “true” Black Jesus in these videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xk7PadRh_rs
Knowledge of self and acceptance of self is the de-programming phase all Black people and People of Color must complete if this madness is to end.
@emile–I’m familiar with that site. What’s so fascinating is while the original depictions of black jesus and the virgin mary have been deliberately removed from places where most blacks exist & live; the image of the black madonna and child are still very much venerated and in complete public view where few of us live/exist–places like scotland, the former czech republic and russia. What’s even more astounding is that all of the so-called secret societies–all of them without fail, can trace their origins to African concepts. So why is it that only some of us are nosey or curious enough to peel the layers back and realize that EVERYTHING these M-F’s have, think, want, desire, envy, copy and conversely despise, hate & actively try to destroy–has it’s origin in mother africa!! Talk about schizophrenic.
This is true. One of my high school history teachers (a Black man) told us what we needed to know for the rest of our lives: “Nobody is going to tell you anything. Why? Because they don’t want Black people to know sh*t! That why. You’re just going to have to learn how to seek out anything you really want to know for yourself. Learn how to study, not just read, but really study what you read.”
@Negress
Black people need to put themselves and our race first. We’re trying to be all things to all people, which is a losing outcome. It’s not our job to speak on behalf of others, fight their battles, boost their self-esteem, and so forth. Black people are the salt of the earth, which is why we’re attacked so much. We can’t get rid of our skin color, so, colorblindness is a non-starter. Hating ourselves is not gonna make others respect us, that’s what they want. Be black, be proud, be fearless, and everything else will take care of itself…Bottomline!!!
Ty
BL Certified(Black Label Certified)…Hold other sistas and brothas accountable for their actions black people? If we’re messin’ up, don’t be afraid to speak on it. Accountability is the word.
I grow tired of this endless talk even as I see or think I see Growth – accountability – third time this word comes up in different but related contexts.
Question – How can you be accountable if you hide? your real name? ,what you look like?
Sure there are “dangers” out here but some of this is starting to look like cowardice.
@Mbeti Yeah I hear what you’re saying. But the information many of us are putting out there is very controversial. When fighting against white supremacy you are putting your life in danger. I have put my pic up before but only for a short time. You do it at your own discretion. And of course we can’t forget–people use fact pics as well. So putting your pic up doesn’t always mean the person is MORE legit.
@Mbeti
If black people are doing wrong, don’t make excuses for their actions. Oftentimes, we see the folly of our people on display. Yet, we will rationalize about why they behave as they do. We know the root cause of the problem from the jump. All of this is a mental game, we allow others to treat us like s**t. It’s not about what others do, it’s about us allowing it to happen. Mbeti, as far as hiding names and all that, don’t get caught up in being a “Supernegro.” Yeah, you may feel bolder as a result of putting your picture out for all to see, but, that’s not important. Relaying the truth to others is what matters.
Supernegro.?!!
interesting I thought I was being honest and consistent.
See If I just see a name and some avatar I really don’t know who you are,do i?
People do lie don’t they?
If you see what I look like and I see what you look like on these serious issues then I and you Know exactly who we are dealing with.
I also realized something else – do you know what malcom x,martin luther king,neely fuller etc etc etc look like? of course you. Are they ” Supernegro’s”?
In fact this arena and certain mob(group) activity are the only place where “some” people want to hide their identity.
” We know the root cause of the problem from the jump.”
I did not and still do not completely ,while I’ve learned a lot, I think I still have I lot to learn.
“It’s not about what others do, it’s about us allowing it to happen.” say what?!
gonna have to think about that one.
“Relaying the truth to others is what matters.” how do you “relay” truth if you hide?
Hide from whom? Believe me, Co-Intelpro-ers already probably know who we are. I’m sure nobody who comes to a site like this believes there is anything near privacy in existence nowadays online. In this post 9/11, Patriot(less) Act, NDAA world–surely no one is that naive. So who would we be ‘hiding’ from? I would think most people who gravitate to a site like this share the same political/world views for the most part so I think we are essentially preaching to the choir–which is not a bad thing and I don’t mean it in that way–but this is not CNN or MSNBC and we probably would be censured anyway b/c Disqus(t) moderates damn near everything anyway on any of these forums and particularly the ones geared to black people. I’ve been exposed to some phenomenal insights & opinions on this site, found links to people/concepts I wasn’t familiar with and am thankful that the “Negress” takes the time out to share with us. I don’t NEED to know what her real name/ssn/address is and she has NO obligation to proffer it. Nor do I believe it would lend any more value or credence to anything written here. I suggest to anybody: ASSUME that we are being watched & recorded and that our words are being duly noted—and then KEEP speaking, keep writing, keep raising your voice with the knowledge that they fear us waaaay more than we ever need to fear them. THEY are the ones lurking in the shadows.
‘If you see what I look like and I see what you look like on these serious issues then I and you Know exactly who we are dealing with.’
Also just b/c a person posts a name and pic, that doesn’t mean that’s who you are corresponding with. Have you ever seen the tv show Catfish? People can and do say anything online and create personas that bear little resemblance to their real life. As Tyrone said, I’d pay more attention to what is being said and if it resonates instead of focusing on the ‘who’.
Mbeti, I’m not one for online images, partly as images online stay online outside of one’s control. I, for one, like to control my image.
Beyond that, I meet with readers, get readers off the street and pass out flyers for my organization besides from attending All-Black Organizations.
You can wonder how “you” would know, but you wouldn’t “know” until you wore “my” shoes.
An ancient proverb goes, “Our senses seek to affirm, not to know.”
With your senses you can not know anything. It’s with your spirit and your reflection that you can know everything.
Another ancient proverb speaks about what are errors:
Your suspicion of every blogger is actually ridiculous. What’s it’s logical conclusion? Are you the only one to be trusted? Beyond that, many speak on these subjects and have their pictures up. But there’s a different foundation that comes with it. I once spent a long amount of time speaking with “Political” Whites; their Avatars were of different Ideological backgrounds–”Marx,” “Che,” “Foucault.” As it were, I came from a background where “Avatars” were not meant to be “Photographs” but “Avatars”–Look up the word.
Besides from protecting my image, I also recognize that one’s interpersonal socialization can jeopardize one. For instance, I can duck and dodge most Europeans; but can everyone I know? In other words, what good is there in putting up an image that can only be used to harm me?
Granted, if you come to New York, you can see me and my beautiful Blackness.
@mbeti
Exactly what are you alluding to?
I thought I made myself clear in my comments ,but I’ll be more direct
I suspect all bloggers and commentators that do not show their complete Identity,
it does not mean they/you are lying or have something to hide – thought you may,
it just adds a level of doubt and suspicion in my mind.
Maybe some are shy and insecure – I am both – but its these damn issues that compel me sometimes and then there is something more mundane two things actually.
One – A lot of “white” bloggers especially ones that post on non “controversial” issues – post/present their actual picture of themselves by default.
Two – are we not beautiful people, not me mind you but some of us are real easy on the eyes, I’m also currently on my facebook page and I make sure all my “real” “friends” show their actual picture not some artwork.
And right now one is so beautiful inside and out she compelled me to look up the correct spelling for ex·quis·ite .
But you all do how you feel.
Peace and war.
And Mbeti, you are a beautiful person. I never see you smile, but certainly occupy yourself with your mirror until you see what others can: How yours is a face of the oldest lineage, crafted perfectly to make the unsure Mbeti.
Has anyone Seen This – http://thyblackman.com/2011/11/23/an-open-letter-of-apology-to-black-men-in-hopes-of-reconciliation/
And There is not even a issue of hiding/concealing your Identity.
I’m not even going to comment on the “apology letter”. Mbeti, why are you waving red meat at me?
@THE ALCHEMIST
red meat !!? really then why are you here I thought most people here had at least a passing concern for black people.
However just like the location where I first found this video – just because you look like us and even post a few articles that seem to say you care ,does not mean you do – anything but really.
@darqbeauty never mine the comments what did you think about this – http://youtu.be/9w0HuxdOwYg
@ Mbeti
Some of her comments are spot on, however, she’s just one of many many people who are trying to correct the gender wars that some Black people seem to like to engage in. Because I’m a Hebrew Israelite, my take on matters in completely different, stemming from the spiritual. Thank you for the link, brother.
Whoooooo buddy. Those comments are out of control! smh!
The “apology” letter has been floating around the internet for over a year. The gender war is a disaster. A lot of unrepairable damage has been done by the “war”. The tone in your comments is unusually aggressive, Mbeti. We all have our bad days. The system of racism/white supremacy is very stressful for non-whites. Next time try waving grass feed beef. I’m a picky eater.
Mbeti
The year just began and already the gloves are off. let’s get down to it. Why post the letter here? What’s your motive?
@THE ALCHEMIST
A lot of “unrepairable” damage has been done by the “war”. The tone in your comments is unusually aggressive, Mbeti.
I really doubt my aggressiveness in this matter but if I apologize – will you accept that?
“unrepairable” damage – hmm… sounds like the perfect excuse for some people to give up.
@diaryofanegress
I thought it was obvious
21 Harsh Truths Black People Don’t Want to Hear , I could have posted this comment anywhere on your blog but I choose here.
From your response as a female and from the responses of the females at the site where I first found it – some black women really don’t want to hear or do this.
Honestly I had hoped for something else ,maybe its because I’m a male,maybe its because of the ways I have been hurt and betrayed by some black women,
If i was asked to do a male version of this I wouldn’t even blink before immediately signing up – it makes complete sense to me and in a small and large way made me feel very good – but a few of you ,blog host included seem to think I’m trying to bait you or somehow attack you in someway.
well only time will tell
but beware
I always come with utmost sincerity even to the point of self doubt
and just when I think I’m wrong and its all for nothing and the enemy is wining ….
I’m not going to finish that ……
I will say the only “love” for me is a african american women – only we can comprehend what we have been through – only we can heal us.
Mbeti
Your article falls in with number 13 and 14. This back and forth with you on images, my gravatar, my alleged cowardice and your suspicion of me is pointless, useless and time consuming.
I already made myself clear on time management. That’s all I’m going to say on this moot matter.
Mbeti,
I can’t co-sign on a patriarchal apology letter. Patriarchy supports the system of racism/white supremacy. I’ve been hurt by black males’ inability to conceive of themselves as victims and victimizers. The inability of many black males to empathize with the black females’ struggle is very very frightening. Black males feel entitled to have their suffering and oppression prioritized. When a group of oppressed people feel that no one has suffered like they have a sort of narcissism sets in. This narcissism is why they feel justified to ask their victims for an apology.
My great grandmothers was beaten to death my her downtrodden and oppressed black male husband. This downtrodden and oppressed black male then went into hiding for a year with the help of his family. Their was no justice for the murder because no one values black women; particularly not downtrodden and oppressed black male victims that think they are owed apologies by the black female collective. Black women are about 8% of the U.S. population but make up around 22% of the domestic violence homicides. The people putting black females into the ground are black males. Since I’m an unapologetic womanist please do not hold your breath waiting for any apologies from me.
From the late poet Pat Parker:
Brother
I don’t want to hear
about
how my real enemy
is the system.
I’m no genius,
but i do know
that system
you hit me with
is called
a FIST.
I can’t co-sign on a patriarchal apology letter. Patriarchy supports the system of racism/white supremacy.
if had been a male apologizing to females then what?
but I agree Patriarchy not only supports the system of racism/white supremacy its a fundamental component of it.
I’ve been hurt by black males’ inability to conceive of themselves as victims and victimizers.
One word – some
The inability of many black males to empathize with the black females’ struggle is very very frightening.
as is their inability to empathize with other black males’ struggle as well.
Black males feel entitled to have their suffering and oppression prioritized.
some.
btw is their a priority – can we objectively state who suffers more ,the black or the white rich or poor male or female
and how should we deal with the similarities or difference, questions to ponder as we strive for solutions.
When a group of oppressed people feel that no one has suffered like they have a sort of narcissism sets in. This narcissism is why they feel justified to ask their victims for an apology.
I don’t know about the narcissism,but I was not “looking” for this apology nor have I been asking for a apology ,but now that that black woman put it out there I appreciate it and I’m totally willing to reciprocate – that is offer a apology of my/our own(black men).
My great grandmothers was beaten to death my her downtrodden and oppressed black male husband.
A great tragedy ,my sorrow and remorse goes to you and your family.
This downtrodden and oppressed black male then went into hiding for a year with the help of his family.
which family members? he killed his wife, his brothers/sisters father/mother?
this is a all to common occurrence – the male is justified.
Their was no justice for the murder because no one values black women
“no justice” how do you know?,how can you tell me?
do you or anyone know every detail of this event?
When I was young It was simple like the adults said but now that I’m a adult – I know better.
“no one values black women” – really ,now your being melodramatic and silly – how about um black women,how about men who actually love them,how about you?
; particularly not downtrodden and oppressed black male victims that think they are owed apologies by the black female collective.
nope I don’t value you individually nor collectively and I want my apology – not
Black women are about 8% of the U.S. population but make up around 22% of the domestic violence homicides.
no doubt black males are very lethal to black people.
The people putting black females into the ground are black males. Since I’m an unapologetic womanist please do not hold your breath waiting for any apologies from me.
naa I’m too old to hold my breath for anything nor anybody these days – you are either going to do it cause you think you should or not,
however as a talking point, it has raised and exposed some very interesting perspectives.
mission accomplished….
Just ran across this article. Any thoughts about this?
http://www.blackbluedog.com/2013/01/news/the-gap-between-blacks-and-whites-is-larger-under-obama-than-bush-or-any-other-president/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-gap-between-blacks-and-whites-is-larger-under-obama-than-bush-or-any-other-president
nmaat
I’m not sure I believe anything I read anymore about black people but…having said that, perhaps it could be true.
@Mbeti,
“mission accomplished”
Everything I said in my comment was post in various comment threads on Cree 7′s blog. Only a black male could claim that another black male may have been justified in beating a woman to death and allowing her to slowly die in bed while refusing to allow relative in the house to tend to her. His mulatto trump card may have helped him get a way with it.
I think in this world like fashion things go round and round. It wasn’t that long ago in the 1950′s and 1960′s blacks in America were fighting and dying for their civil rights. While blacks in Africa and the Caribbean were fighting and dying for their independence . Now we wouldn’t waste a minute in poking each other’s eyes out. Why is that? What happened? Are things really that bad?
I agree with everything you say in this post, most of all number 1. All this self hate and negativity has to stop. I think though things will turn around for the better. Michelle Obama wasn’t a fluke… Shame she hasn’t been able to spark a change in hair styles/fashion though.
That was true to the bone. Blacks hate each other so much that we are willing to pretend that whites don’t hate us as much or at all. Now how sick is that? Of course the white man hates you. All you have to do is try to date his daughter, sister or wink at his wife. You’ll see everything you need to see then.
Rednecks hate white liberals because they say whites alive today shouldn’t feel guilty for what their ancestors did to us. Whatever….I don’t care what whites feel. I know they don’t feel love that’s for sure. White liberals actually hate blacks more than rednecks because white liberals think blacks really are too stupid to help ourselves. Rednecks know we can handle our own and that’s why they fear our melanin and our sexuality.
It’s also why rednecks insist on stockpiling guns and ammo and why a physical race war would lead to our extermination. That is exactly what rednecks and Jews want. They only need the athletes, music artists and entertainers to make their money and do their brainwashing/social engineering. The rest of us are human fodder. If we ever stop paying taxes (which we don’t owe) they’d just drop a nuke on the Southeast to get rid of most of us. The whites that died would be classified as collateral damage. Israel already has a bioweapon that can kill ONLY people of color while not affecting whites. We’ve been asleep for too long people. They can pull the lever any time they want.
the one about slavery being back with a vengeance might be true for some whites, but the majority of them (if they had their way) would have never brought us here to begin with…a saw a bumper sticker once that said “we should have picked our own cotton”,and i believe the majority of them still feel that way…
16 18 and 19 hold so true. @Tank Rollins I sure do wish they had picked their own cotton too. And stayed in Europe I wish they had never made it over here. I wonder if, I wish real hard and click me heels three times if, I’ll end up back in Africa and this will all be some kind of bad dream. Oh, snap didn’t work…
Guess we’ll have to figure out this mess on our own and get to work on it in order to get back to Africa and send the white people back to where tey came. LOL
Remember that Jews started the slave trade. Whites were slaves here as indentured servants before Africans arrived. Whites always turn on each other in the absence of people of color. That is why it is vital for us to separate from them and then they will just destroy each other. Jewish Khazars (current Ashkhenazi Jews) and white Gentiles hate each other. They have been warring for thousands of years in Europe but the Sephardic Jewish King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella saw an opportunity to plunder India and funded another Jew, Columbus, to find it. Of course he got lost and ended up in America. The rest is our history. You have to realize the 70% of slaves in America were owned by Jews on massive plantations. They were especially cruel to their slaves as well. Regular whites had very few slaves and treated them well in comparison, although the entire institution is abominable. Jews have been expelled from over a hundred countries in Europe over the centuries because they do the same thing every time, corrupt society and then steal everything. It worked well this time in America because many people believe the Holohoax really happened (Jews control the NEA that decide the public education curriculum of false history) or that Jews are God’s chosen people, as if God would choose an entire race of people regardless of their character. Now Israel controls America but they needed “blacks” to remain here after slavery (which is why we only got a tiny piece of Liberia for repatriation). Whites need an enemy to feel alive and Jews used, and are still using, us for that very purpose. Few realize that Jews started the KKK and the NAACP. They even started AA. They are diabolical masters of divide and conquer and most of us fall for it every time. They know some people like us will see through the ruse but as long as they have that dumbed-down 80% their plans will still succeed.
jabari
Correct.
That is why I am a Pan African Separatist. Without us, whites WILL seek to destroy themselves. It’s in their nature. Lacking melanin causes a behavioural defect.
@ Jabari you hit the nail right on the head re: the Jews. Paul Mooney said it best – you walk in the closet with some Jews they’ll come out wearing your clothes. Always up to something.
I live not even 100 feet away from a Jewish Torah Center and Kosher Deli and it seems there’s only ever something going on there after 2 am and before dawn when I make my grocery runs…. I always make sure to not look to close and end up seeing something I shouldn’t.
There’s no telling what they are up to but I can assure you it is nothing that will benefit mankind as a whole. Today is the Jewish holiday Purim so I fully expect another false flag attack from them today or on 3/11. These Khazars are not real Jews. They converted to Judaism in 720AD to avoid being overrun by neighboring tribes in Europe. Everything they do has an ulterior motive. With no connection to God they have no other way to operate. What a pathetic existence. I pity their soulless way of life but I would still like to send them back where they came from forever.
jabari and Bry
In brooklyn, they would disappear into these old abandoned buildings and chant for hours til morning. Everything is hidden in secrecy. A friend one told me that the backrooms of their deli’s are a meeting place.
For what, I do not know.
Best to get up and relocate to West Africa. Liberia, Sierra Leone and Ghana.
Ben
I’m writing a post due out soon on our mass black flight. I’ve met over the years at least 20 blacks that have either left the US and went to the islands or Africa.
I really like your blog. I am a young Black woman of 17 and I am becoming more and more racially aware of how racist AmeriKKKa really is. I believe MOST White Americans are racist and most of it is rather subtle but MOST White Americans have this feeling that they are superior to their Black counterparts.
Your reasons are correctly stated especially this one: ”No matter how big your house, how fancy your car and how expensive your jewelry, whites are not EVER going to be impressed with you or have respect for you. To them, you are just another nigger.”
Well said. I try to tell other Black kids my age this and they wouldn’t even listen! Most of White AmerKKKa sees us as inferior. Michael Jackson, OJ Simpson and other Blacks realize this when they get trouble that White AmeriKKKa sees them as another nigger. Soon Beyoncé is learning the same thing. History repeats itself but STUPID IGNORANT Blacks never learn.
When I get older, I plan on leaving this country because this country is really getting on my nerves with it’s racism and unequal distribution of wealth. Everyone hates Black people in America and thinks that Black women are ugly and not worthy of appreciation. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. Things aren’t getting any better. I know other countries aren’t perfect but I do know I want to leave this country.
I don’t know which countries would be good to move to though.
I want to travel the world as well.I want to visit south africa and brazil someday.I heard south africa is beautiful and i’ve been in love with the idea of going there ever since i saw the documentary called blacks without borders.Plus america is always starting wars so I want to be out of here before the chickens come home to roost.They already trying to invade iran.Its going to be world war 3.
I’m curious about africa too because they always saying how bad it is yet they contradict themselves by going there all the time.If its so bad why keep going back.I hope for another black wallstreet,but it can’t be here because we see what happened to the first one.I want to go where i will be accepted and can prosper.
Same here. I want to leave America before any war happens over here and blows us up. I want to bring my family too. This country and this racist society gets on my nerves.
I want to move to a country with less racial tension.
Adeen
Welcome. Please feel free to add your thoughts.
You are welcome. I really like this blog because you tell the truth that most Black Americans don’t like to hear.
love this…ive been awakened for almost 10 months and I can imagine how I was sleep for so long..always felt there was MOOR and there was..hotep! Ive invoked mi ancestors and they made their prescense known to mi! they are here on Geb, waiting, directing, guiding us..now how dowe awaken others? Ive accepted that many will not awaken…im ready to move forward with Truth! dwu (thank u) for expressing truth (maat)
The real problem is OUR CULTURE
I am a Black male, born and raised in Canada. My mother and father, both immigrants of Black Caribbean decent.
Grew up amongst children in a classroom full of mixed culture. Raised to love all races. My closest friends throughout my history on this planet were Whites, Asians and Middle Eastern. I know this because they have and would again put their lives on the line for my own well being. Many of them even consider me family. Racial related violence doesn’t happen often here in Canada.
I’ve been interviewed by Whites, invited to their homes and eaten on their dinner tables. The only racial segregation I’ve EVER faced were caused by either:
A: twisted idealist remarks from my own race
B: Older adults 40+ who’ve been raised in other countries and immigrated here with the same “EVERY RACE FOR THEMSELVES” mentality.
I think racial equality is to a degree happening in the United States but at a slower rate due to overall population size. Less to forget the ghetto violent street culture that is adopted and well received there. Media such as BET aren’t helping the issue along either. You now see a movement of children who’ve never struggled a day in their lives. Yet they drop out of school purposefully in pursuit of a life full of gun violence, drugs and money in a grossly misplaced interpretation of “lifestyle”.
That being said, your article holds truth to some gravity but holds as FAR too generalized. I think the more countries are adopting mixed cultures, the more children are being born and raised in a society of youth blind of cultural and ethnic difference. Genetic predisposition caused by Melatonin and Serotonin is ABSOLUTE HOGWASH. If that were the real truth, Blacks and Whites would never marry, mixed children wouldn’t exist and your President would have been assassinated before his elected second term.
This is a sharing of how to reconnect to some of our ancient practices, and to ancestral languages, we must remember that language carries a vibration or frequency of tones to it, it is why languages like the metu netcher, Amharic or those from Yoruba, Igbo, Akan, Ewe, and so forth can help connect to our Nananom Nsamonofo (Honorable Ancestors). http://afuraka-afuraitkait.ning.com/main/search/search?q=Apae
Also a great book is “Blackout through Whitewashed by Dr. Suzar, here is her site: http://suzar.com/BOTW/BOTW-ch5b-pages55-56.html (on Melanin) Get the facts!

This whole post is poignant and well written. All of the reasons above are the reason why many of us Blacks in AmeriKKKlan and in the White dominated world can’t get anywhere. We don’t stick together or value ourselves. And also we hate ourselves and envy Whites for their power, beauty and the list goes on. That is the reason why Blacks are at the bottom of society in every country: we don’t stick together, we fight and hate each other continuously and many Blacks sell out their own to please the ”Massah” aka White man.
It is important Blacks stick together and love each other if they want to survive and more generations of Black kids in this racist society and world.
I am for the continuation and progress of my race, the Black race in AmeriKKKlan and the world. I don’t believe in interracial dating at all especially among Black men because it is a result of self hatred.
Why would you prefer a White woman over someone who looks like your own mother?
Numbers 4-9 really resonate with me because I have been through it. No. 8 applies to my Hispanic neighbors. Most Hispanics are a mixture of African, Indigneous Indian and Spanish blood which is mixed and many Hispanics don’t want to embrace their African or Indigneous roots. Well my Hispanic neighbors are a lot like that and her daughter thinks she is White and acts like she is better than me because she looks White and I am Black. I found myself laughing when my mother told me that the Hispanic girl’s mother said that most people in her family are light, bright and damn near White. I had to laugh because this Hispanic woman’s sister is almost as dark as my mother and my mother is a Black woman! As well as other people in her family. So much for stupid, colonized mentality Hispanics like these people! And many mixed people don’t even embrace their Black roots either. I think many of them are ashamed of their Black blood.
Of course not all Hispanics are like that but MANY are.
No.s 5-7 and 9 resonate with me because I find myself not getting along with the Black people at my high school. In fact, many of them treated the White students better than me and seem to be cold and distant to me. I am not mean or nasty but I always experience that. I guess it is because they hate themselves so much that whenever they see another Black person, they want them to fail. It is a terrible mentality and it all started in slavery where we were taught to hate ourselves.
Another example was when I was being criticized for being smart in class by White students and this sellout Uncle Tom chick went along with them. I don’t know what this chick had against me but I thought that Black people were supposed to stick together. She(Uncle Tom sellout) was talking to this White kid, who criticized me, like they were best friends and aggravated me, purposely. I had gotten so mad that I was going to tell her the truth: Don’t come to me when this White boy calls you the n word behind your back”. Because I damn well know that this White boy she was siding with was most likely going to go behind her back and call her the n word along with me.
No. 4, Eurocentric education just brainwashes Americans especially Black Americans to believe that America is such a great country full of opportunity and freedom. Too much Eurocentric education and you could end up a wise fool.
I maybe young, I am turning 18 this year but I am trying to figure out how racism works in this country.
Sad to say but I have never seen a dumber generation of Black people and I am talking about my generation. Listening to Shitty Minaj, Lil Gayne, Chief Keef and thinking they are the best things to walk on two legs, Black women sporting weaves and hating their natural hair, BET promoting the degradation of the Black race with it’s degrading music videos and Rap music, bad economic times, no morals and most of all, most of my generation is lost!!!!!!!!!! Just because we have a Black president and live in a so called multicultural society doesn’t mean racism isn’t dead. In fact, I have seen racism increase during Obama’s presidency!
Sorry for the rant but I am so sick of the racial tensions, Uncle Tom sellout Negros, AmeriKKKlan’s sick ”beauty” standards that they impose on others etc.

Rant as much as you want to my love. that’s why the blog is here for us so that we can heal and learn and try to move forward.
you are not alone in the struggle no matter how hard it may seem. just remember that the reason why everyone may hate us is because they are not us.
It truly is frustrating. May 19th came and went and I heard not a word about Brother Malcolm’s birthday in the media or from anyone else. I always celebrate that day. The only other thing I would say is that many of the Uncle Tom’s out there used to be soldiers. They became so frustrated with their own people that they sold out. Be careful that it doesn’t happen to you. Love for your own people must stay at the top of the list, no matter how sick we are or how badly we treat you. Like you said it is just projection of self-hatred that has been conditioned into our very being by centuries of white supremacy. Now most of us just want to fight over who can be the most white while at the same time pretending to “keep it real” so we don’t lose our street cred. It’s pathetic.

I’m taking a sabbatical soon.
I’ve been shot down a LOT with getting my venture Sankofa up and running. I need a break to recoup.
You are right but it is so hard.
No.13 and 14 is the reason why I don’t support interracial marriage among Blacks and non Blacks. Blacks need to stick together and marry their own kind especially the wealthy Blacks. Wealthy Blacks like Michael Jackson who intermarry with Whites have their money go to the White community when it belongs in the Black community.
In my sophomore year last year, this Black guy said that he refused to go out with me because I am Black. Funny, because I am the same complexion he is! He is with a Puerto Rican girl right now.
Yes, Black men who dislike Black women do hate themselves.
Adeen
That black boy was confused. Hopefully, he’ll awaken someday.
I know right. I really liked that guy and still think about him.
I’m not defending interracial marriage between blacks and whites because there is nothing healthy a white women can do for a black man but I do think blacks and Latinos share a common bond. Latinos are basically indigenous people who were conquered by Spanish interlopers and colonizers. They were forced to learn Spanish and forget their native tongue just like African slaves were forced to eschew their own culture, religion and language in favor of European garbage at the risk of death.
Light-skinned Asians like Vietnamese, Japanese and Chinese pretty much adopt a white attitude so I do not support intermarriage with them. However darker-skinned Asians like Thai and Cambodians do suffer a plight similar to our own. It’s all about how dark your skin is for many people. For a while the media makes it cool to be dark-skinned and then they flip flop it back to light-skinned to keep us at each other’s throats. It transcends all races because they all have intra-racial conflicts. Even whites who can tan pick on pale-skin whites who turn red and burn in the sun. Redheads are particularly susceptible to sunburn.
I love black women of all colors who take care of themselves inside and out but I’m 43 and haven’t found one close proximity with her head on straight yet. I can’t wait forever or I won’t be able to see my children grow up. There are many black women who hate educated black men because they don’t provide the “swag” aphrodisiac many black women need for their orgasms. Black women don’t like to talk about that but I do. You can’t talk about not having a good black man until you know what one is. If you are only attracted to little silly boys who sell drugs, wear urban wear and talk about how they will be a rapper one day then the TV has your mind and you don’t even realize it. That means the Jews control you because they control the media.
I’m not accusing anyone of anything but the frustration that many of us feel is self-inflicted.
Jabari
Most blacks come to each other will excessive baggage. Women looking for a “real” man whilst sporting fake hair, nails and eyelashes.
Men seeking a sister who will do all the dirty work while he lives off of her for free.
You are not alone in your angst. Blacks say they want a spiritual partner yet find the work involved intimidating and too hard.
Your obvious intelligence May be fearsome for lower vibrational females. Please do not despair. The right female is out there and seeking you as well.
I see where you are coming from. Yes I am of Caribbean descent and I do agree that Latinos and us do share a common culture and struggle but MANY Latinos try to distant themselves from their Indigneous and Black roots. That was what I was talking about. I don’t hate Latinos, in fact, I like them, but many of them including the ones I live next to, want to be White and distant themselves from their Indigneous roots.
Second of all, I don’t like thugs, gangsters or rappers. I actually love educated Black men because to me, a educated Black men represents progress in our community. Plus he could make a lot of a lot of money and bring the money back to the Black community. I plan on marrying one when I get older. Plus the thugs and gangsters aren’t attracted to me because I lack the voluptuous curves that many Black women have and in return, I don’t like them back.
” I’m not accusing anyone of anything but the frustration that many of us feel is self-inflicted”
So true.
Adeen
I’m sorry dear.
That boy is just that. A boy. As you grow into womanhood, you’ll meet many men on your intellectual level and they will fulfill you on the level that matters most;
Spiritually.
Don’t sell yourself short ever.
Thanks. You are very encouraging.
Reblogged this on Not yet uhuru….
LOVE IT! Though many stay in denial you are throwing the truth out there.
We can deny the truth all day every day it will not move us further but keep us held back. Anyone in disbelief visit people of your race outside of where and whom you know then see how far we have yet to come. We feel a disconnect within our race of community yet we are in denial that we are moving forward. Read the message boards on your local media sites and tell me if the higher education the big house the white woman/man by your side makes a difference, on how you-not as an individual but as a man and or woman of the black american race is seen by those outside from your own race. If you are still in denial then there is and never will be any hope for us to ever move forward as a union. We don’t stick together but look around you….believe we are the only race that will stab eachother in the backs in front of the world. We can be targeted because we don’t stand together.
