“let us deal wisely with them”: Exodus 1- 9-10. of the European fantasy book!

What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore–
And then run?

Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over–
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

PAUL MOONEY-WHITE FRIGHT/SLAVERY’S BACK IN EFFECT

The Final Solution; Slavery’s Back In Effect

Proponents of capitalism willfully at best, ignorantly at worse, believe in some moral or ethical practice involved in this form of commerce. Many who beat the tired old line of capitalism as being beneficial to society, are usually greedy, selfish and abusive fuckers whose sole purpose is to get theirs on the backs of, or despite of the suffering of their fellow man.  Supporters of capitalism as a practice and philosophy,  confuses forms of piracy or feudalistic opportunism with the integrity of a barter system, that goes beyond exchanging product for product, but also includes the  exchanging products/pay for equal work and the respect of the value of a workers efforts.  One of the rising business entity in Amerikkklan, the corporate monolith called United States For America, is the  private prison. This is an example of  Capitalism with a big C and exemplifies the capitalist notion of supply and demand, even when there is no demand, just create the environment for the demand. The owners of private prisons or prisons in general (yes I am talking to you government elements)  make money on how people fill up their prisons in the same way that a hotel makes money on tourism and  on how many people stay at any “comfort Inn”. Some feel good organizations promote the idea that prisoners and prisons should be about rehabbing of those who run afoul of the law. This is a pie in the sky dream where the reality is a reformed prisoner becomes such, based more on his or her own efforts and almost super human will to overcome their past, along with the support if any of close associates and family members. Prisons have and has never been about reform or rehab, but about keeping the bad elements way from society.

A cursory study of ourstory will show the absence of any correctional institutes in centers of high culture,despite the revisionism of those who have set up the science of “Egyptology” (to suppress and rob from, not study the wonders of Kimit and it’s adjoining high cultures of  Kush, Punt, Nubia, Atlantis, Phoenicia, Mesopotamia, etc) or those who created the confusing study of “orientalism”, where the study of eastern cultures started and stopped at Kimit, our presence in the far east and in North East Alkebulan, recently converted to the middle east. In studying   His story we do notice, clearly not hidden, the narratives of punishment and incarceration as paramount to a society filled with crime and avarice, where Ma’at is absent and survival of the fittest is norm for the course.

No more evident is this than the Prison Industrial complex. A modern day descendant of (1) the system in the Brutish empire prior to them releasing the hounds of hell from the depth of the dungeon of the Brutish Empire, onto the civilized peoples in Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania and the formerly Turtle Island, now called North America. (2) The prison colony of the Southern states where the original dark matter soldiers fighting imperialism and colonialism, were captured and forced into servitude and a life  below that of the pig and jack ass.

Prison Industrial Complex in America

Of lately those unblind to the jingoism and flag waving of Americana and negropean wet dreams, have been sounding the clarion call to take a closer look at the constitution that many like to embrace and refer to without actually knowing its contents. Specifically the 13th amendment. An amendment is an alteration of an original matter or object.

As the Narrative goes:

The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution outlaws slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. It was passed by the Senate on April 8, 1864, by the House on January 31, 1865, and adopted on December 6, 1865. On December 18, Secretary of State William H. Seward proclaimed it to have been adopted. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted after the American Civil War.

13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: Abolition of Slavery

The 13th amendment, which formally abolished slavery in the United States, passed the Senate on April 8, 1864, and the House on January 31, 1865. On February 1, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln approved the Joint Resolution of Congress submitting the proposed amendment to the state legislatures. The necessary number of states ratified it by December 6, 1865. The 13th amendment to the United States Constitution provides that “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”

In 1863 President Lincoln had issued the Emancipation Proclamation declaring “all persons held as slaves within any State, or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free.” Nonetheless, the Emancipation Proclamation did not end slavery in the nation. Lincoln recognized that the Emancipation Proclamation would have to be followed by a constitutional amendment in order to guarantee the abolishment of slavery.

The 13th amendment was passed at the end of the Civil War before the Southern states had been restored to the Union and should have easily passed the Congress. Although the Senate passed it in April 1864, the House did not. With the adoption of the 13th amendment, the United States found a final constitutional solution to the issue of slavery. 

Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

Shortly after the amendment’s adoption, selective enforcement of certain laws, such as laws against vagrancy, resulted in blacks continuing to be subjected to involuntary servitude in some cases, particularly in the South.[11] See also Black Codes.

Southern states hired out prisoners to private companies and interests as convict lease labor to pay off court fees for such offenses. As these states made the lessees responsible for the prisoners’ food, clothing and housing, these states did not build any prisons until late in the nineteenth century. Law enforcement and businessmen colluded to entrap freedmen and convict them, so they could gain revenues from convict lease labor.

The Thirteenth Amendment is the first of the Reconstruction Amendments. It was followed by the Fourteenth Amendment (civil rights in the states) in 1868, and the Fifteenth Amendment (which bans racial voting restrictions) in 1870.

Interpretation

Involuntary servitude

In Selective Draft Law Cases, 245 U.S. 366 (1918), the Supreme Court ruled that the military draft was not “involuntary servitude”.

No offenses against the Thirteenth Amendment have been prosecuted since 1947.[12][13]

Psychological coercion had been the primary means of forcing involuntary servitude in United States v. Ingalls, 73 F. Supp. 76, 77 (S.D. Cal. 1947).[14] However, in United States v. Kozminski, 487 U.S. 931 (1988), the Supreme Court ruled that the Thirteenth Amendment did not prohibit compulsion of servitude through psychological coercion.[15][16] Kozminski limited involuntary servitude to those situations when the master subjects the servant to:

1. threatened or actual physical force,
2. threatened or actual state-imposed legal coercion, or
3. fraud or deceit where the servant is a minor, an immigrant or mentally incompetent.

Peonage[20]

Refers to a person in “debt servitude,” or involuntary servitude tied to the payment of a debt. Compulsion to servitude includes the use of force, the threat of force, or the threat of legal coercion to compel a person to work against his or her will.

Involuntary servitude[21]

Refers to a person held by actual force, threats of force, or threats of legal coercion in a condition of slavery – compulsory service or labor against his or her will. This also includes the condition in which people are compelled to work against their will by a “climate of fear” evoked by the use of force, the threat of force, or the threat of legal coercion (i.e., suffer legal consequences unless compliant with demands made upon them) which is sufficient to compel service against a person’s will. In Bailey v. Alabama (1911), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that peonage laws violated the amendment’s ban on involuntary servitude.

Forced labor[23]

Labor or service obtained by:

1. threats of serious harm or physical restraint;
2. any scheme, plan, or pattern intended to cause a person to believe they would suffer serious harm or physical restraint if they did not perform such labor or services:
3. the abuse or threatened abuse of law or the legal process.

The Thirteenth Amendment was proposed by the Thirty-eighth United States Congress, on January 31, 1865. The amendment was adopted on December 6, 1865, when Georgia ratified it. On December 18, 1865, Secretary of State William H. Seward, proclaimed the amendment to have been ratified by the legislatures of 27 of the then 36 states. All 36 states as of 1865 eventually ratified the amendment. The ratification dates are:[27]

Abraham Lincoln, in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, specifically referenced the Corwin Amendment:[29][30]

“I understand a proposed amendment to the Constitution . . . has passed Congress, to the effect that the Federal Government shall never interfere with the domestic institutions of the States, including that of persons held to service. I have no objection to its being made express and irrevocable.”

For those who may not overstand the gist of the 13th amendment. The abolishment of enslavement of the original dark matter people will be enforced in territories where the chance of rebellion against their owners remains evident. However, due to the difficulty in passing totally, the proclamation was amended that slavery(or the euphemism forced servitude) will still be legal if one runs afoul of the law of the states and thus end up in forced labour and servitude. This is why prisons cannot be  centers of rehabilitation, but as centers of forced servitude (enslavement if you are not into using punk language), such as in road gangs, making license plates, extra. This is why the prison environment is designed to create the worst of human conditions in order to develop a subhuman mentality and a subhuman culture. When a prisoner devolves into predators, the excuse to keep him in forced servitude under the guise of protecting the public becomes acceptable. And how do we recreate the conditions outside of prisons in order to feed this parasitic evil? See below.

Those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat it

There are several variation of this axiom and the number of people attributed to it. However, the original statement IS as follows…..

Poet/Philosopher George Santayana, 1905

Tomorrow begins a 28 day recognition of another “Christmas” for those starved for recognition among themselves and starved for recognition and acceptance from others outside themselves, including their ethnic and traditional oppressors. Tomorrow begins the umpteenth “celebration” of the original “Negro history week”. A brave and prescient act developed and put forth by Carter G Woodson during a time when, sophistication and civilization  meant wearing top hat and tails, reading Shakespeare and accepting that the “white” man’s ice is colder than ours.  In applying the adage, the more things change the more they stay the same, we have arrived at this point in 2013, more than a month after when the prognosticators, proclaimed to the easily duped that the world was coming to an end. In the here and now, knee-grows are either celebrating (1) Black history month (2) African history month or (3) African Liberation Month.  Whichever you call it designate where you stand on the ladder of stupidity and foolishness.  Most people don’t even know why we do what we do in this month. Some may say that this was the birth  month of that knee-grow in hiding Abraham Lincoln, who  “freed” the slaves. Carter G Woodson, with the knowledge he had at the time, acknowledged that this month was in recognition of Lincoln’s grand gesture. But few overstand that the Great Frederick Douglass was also born in this month and this period was also in recognition of his more important work than any Lincoln could have done.

Revisionists historian will tell you that Lincoln “freed” the slave for whatever reasons at the moment they would make up. And because of this “Christmas” like celebratory period, they will entertain their offspring and others who wish to be educated on all things black, about three main period that sums up ourstory. Kimit, us growing up in a cotton field and the civil rights successes. Of course they will throw in a few “black inventors” and such, but this is the jest of February and knee-grow self actualization month. And what a shindig it will be!  Worsted monkey suites, with silken nooses around the neck, MAY be ditched for dashikis and boubous from European entities like African Imports, a Yurugu’s owned company that has literally cornered the market of our culture.  Knee-grows with red, black and green dashiki’s and a hard on will be prowling the Africentric events looking to wax poetically with sisters in Queenly Kaftan, with wetness between their legs and burning incense at home. and at precisely Oh dark hundred hours on February 28th, we will go back to the modern plantation and immerse ourselves in somebody else’s culture for another 11 month, bitching and complaining that we all can’t catch a break from Mr Charley.

You see “Mr. Charley” is doing what he is supposed to do, and that is to live and practice HIS culture. Today’s society is Yurugu’s, with a European flavour, a taste of Caucasian insensibility and a pinch of  Neanderthal outlook for a dish of  “white Supremacy”, to be served up with a cold beer and a side order of fuck yous to other ethnic groupings. Knee=grows are the only ethnic group that see our story in a vacuum, created under stone pyramid, raised in a cotton patch and sophisticated by sitting next to Yurugu on the toilet. That’s why we call it HIS-story! History is a revisionist one that has us at the tail end of the alpha dogs of earth cultures, instead of at the head. Our deliberate…and I mean deliberate…and willful ignorance of ourstory is tied up with our hate of anything from Alkebulan. From our original dark matter, to our hair, body types and lingua. But ourstory was not and can never be in a vacuum. In fact every time we breathe we are either creating a narrative or in the process of doing so. Ourstory is not bound by time. Time is an artificial construct created by earth bound entities, unable to travel astrally due to their calcified pineal glands. The ancestors as it was written down in the emerald stones of Jheuty, detailed the regularity and ability to travel on the spiritual planes, where we were never limited by time. We could travel forwards and backwards, up or down, side ways and around. Ourstory  should not be regulated to the dustbins of the past, but as sure as we are hue man beings, not hue men was, not hue men becoming….hue man beings, ourstory is always being created. Our story is one of constant evolving and being. So remember as you do your thing this February, culture and ourstory is something to be lived 24/7/365 days of the 52 week period in the Gregorian calendar.

Wake Up and Live

Could racism towards Black Africans be intrinsic to Arab culture?

This article is reblogged from the site Rising Continent.  Please go there and support their efforts.
 Posted on October 5, 2011 by Kevin Bismark Cobham

This is what I wrote recently in response to my abject disappointment at the deafening silence from the Arab world regarding their racism towards Black Africans. It was addressed to the “progressive” Pan Arab website and FB page: “jadaliyya” following their article giving tribute to the scholar and activist Edward Said on the anniversary of his death.

“Fine article, making reference to Black intellectuals too, such as Fanon, Malcolm X, MLK, Cabral. …Which begs the question: WHEN will http://www.jadaliyya.com and other Arab voices which claim to be progressive, to be for peace and justice, speak out loudly against Arab racism towards Black Africans? When? What is it about the humanity of the Black man, such that one can see article after article in jadaliyya mercilessly exposing the deceits and contradictions of Empire and its Arab puppet stooges, yet not one word since February (I would be happy to be proved wrong) about the racism intrinsic to the rebel cause, the wider anti Black racism in Libya or that of the Arab world. I don’t live in hope for change in this regard any time soon. The prejudice appears too intrinsic of culture, too profound….it needs to be ousted.”

And this is what I wrote on a friend’s wall after he had posted a quite simple yet powerful photo of an exiled Palestinian and an American Jewish woman holding placards. Hers read as follows: ” I’m from Austin Texas, Israel would pay me to live in his land because I am Jewish”. His read: ” I’m from Palestine, I cannot return to my land because I am not Jewish”.
“The Arab world, whilst rightly calling out this racism, needs to speak against its own racism against Black Africans. If they want to further the bonds of solidarity and call us to action regarding Jewish racism in Palestine ( it is right that they should)…then why the Arab silence regarding the lynchings, rapes and ethnic cleansing by the Nato stooge “rebels” in Libya? Speak up Arab world, or be damned by your murderous, racist hypocrisy.
One can also mention Sudan, Mauritania, much of the Sahel region, where racist Arab supremacist attitudes are very much at large. BDS against Apartheid Israel, by all means……but let us ask why so many in the Arab world are silent about their racism to the Black African. No Black person now is safe in an African country: Libya….murderous racism is the reason.”

I desperately want to be proved wrong. Wrong to form the view that racism towards Black Africans is so intrinsic of Arab cultures that it prevents them, in the main, from expressing the solidarity-creating outrage which we hear from so many brave Jewish voices condemning the colonial entity which is Apartheid Israel.

The racism inherent in the founding of the state of Israel and its perpetuation, are anti-imperialist indicators, helping create that consciousness necessary to understand just why the West supports that state, and why it must be opposed by forces for peace and justice.

The racism inherent in the founding of the NTC in Libya and prior to that the lies used to tap into latent Western racial prejudice against Black African peoples, so that Empire/Nato could step in, are also anti-imperialist indicators, helping create that consciousness necessary to understand just why the West supports the “rebels”, and why they must be opposed by forces for peace and justice.

The Arab world rightly identifies for our attention the Orientalist cloak spread across their lands and in particular in Palestine, beneath which the racist ethnic cleansing of Arabs by the Jewish state occurs.

The progressive Arab world should now identify that same Orientalist cloak which is being spread across Libya, beneath which the racist ethnic cleansing of Black Africans by lighter skinned Africans occurs.

Pan African voices which say little or nothing on this issue need urgently to question that silence. Pan African unity is meaningless as an idealised objective if African voices remain complicitly silent.

This is not a divisive dig. This is a “hang on a minute” moment.

Arab world, is ours a common struggle or are those just words? Pan Africanists, speak up!
