I am taking a break from writing. Hang tight and remember to
actually see what happens right in front of your eyes!
I know I keep re-posting this music video,
but this song tells the story in a powerful way. While the Black Community attempts to get out from under, we the white race need to tear down the baracades .
Get a Clue white America!!

My Response to Dr. J. Sapio's thought provoking article titled:
AMEN
and thank you for providing additional facts and perspectives. Traveling my
life long journey immersed in social justice, I am always searching for new
information.
Throughout
my travels talking with folks from the white race (my race) there has always
been a consistent theme. Within that theme there is a common thread and that is
the question of why? What would white America gain from continuing racist
oppression? When providing an answer I am sure I cannot do it justice, however,
I attempt to explain the reasoning behind a very complex issue, centered in the
very topic you broached and that is unification on a global level. Your article
reflects and connects the historical oppressive racist facts with the
contemporary occurrences. What I recently discovered appears to be another link
in this complex issue. And please correct me if I am wrong!
The
conservative, radical wealthy elite have an enormous amount to lose if they do
not maintain a stronghold on the Black World population. I always wondered why
Africans viewed Black Americans in such a negative light. There appears to be a
growing discontent between the two communities, which I assume originates and
continues to be fueled by the dominate white culture.
I recently
learned that since 1958, 14 African countries continue to be forced by France,
to pay a yearly Colonial Pact Tax for the benefit of their continuing
independence. They are required to relinquish 85% of their funds into France
central bank and under their strict control. They are putting in 500 Billion
dollars every year into the French treasury!!! 500 Billion!!! In fact France
allows them to access only 15% of the money in any given year. If there is need
for any more, they need to borrow the extra money from their own 65% at
commercial interest rates!!! That my friend is more than just obscene!! The
African leaders, who refuse to do so, are killed or are a victim of coup in
their country. Hmmm, the news media portrays it as Africa’s internal Black on
Black war. Those leaders who obey are rewarded by France with lavish lifestyle
while their people endure extreme poverty, and desperation. And how does the
news media portray this story??? If you read the Colonial Pact, as well as the
Defense Agreements, you can clearly see the oppressive control over Africa’s
military, political and natural resources. I cannot buy any products straight
from Africa. There is ALWAYS a middle man if you will.
I am sure
the issue of European control in Africa alone, goes much deeper than this.
Therefore, it behooves the Global white conservative, radical, wealthy elite to
maintain their powerbase here in America, Africa and worldwide by tightening
their oppressive control in order to keep African and Black Americans enslaved
to the European racist mindset.
Can you
imagine the enormous political and economic alliances that could be formed, if
both the African and Black American populations took back what is rightfully
yours??
God Bless
You All…God’s Chosen People!

"WE DON'T LIVE IN A PROBABLY,
MAYBE OR A WHAT IF WORLD".
The newest racist rhetoric is voiced by Bill O'Reilly and FOX News, am I surprised" Hell no. While I fully support keeping our police officers safe and condemn the murders of our officers, I resent the fact that our US Constitutional Rights are being violated once again. And we are allowing the conservative white race (my race) to once again block and place barricades in front of the Black Community in an attempt to stop them from protesting the slaughter of innocent Black lives, no matter who is doing the killing, civilians or law enforcement!!! By stopping the protest, the conservatives maintain the goal of oppression in order to maintain their economic and political position domestically and globally.
Linking the protests as a major contributor to the murders of Innocent police officers, is just another tactic that the right-wing Conservatives and Tea Party radicals are using to send a message justifying the murders of innocent Black lives.
FOX news and Moran's like Bill O'Reilly began spear heading a campaign against BLM for MONTHS now!! They are characterizing the Black Lives Matter organization as a hate group that supports police officers being murdered.
Remember that the activist movement of the organization Black Lives Matter began after George Zimmerman was acquitted of murdering Trayvon Martin.
Give me solid proof that the organization as a whole entity supports and ignites violence against police officers. If you can provide hard facts then I will be right there with you and I will take back all of my words!!
Don't give me shit like O'Reilly saying that "the protests probably had some effect on the murder Friday night" and then expect me to agree and passively say "OK Bill you are so right"!! People need to start looking for solid factual proof not just words that elude to misconceptions or the linkage of racist rhetoric as the almighty truths for this Nation to follow !! Give me an Fuckin' break.
Guess what Bill baby, you incite so much rage that maybe you will have some sort of negative effect on my behavior...can I use that as a defense?
The last I heard my great country was built on a constitutional foundation! Just like these right wing conservative radicals preach their loyalty to America, I am preaching my love for, dedication to, loyalty of and commitment to these United States of America!! We should be a UNITED America in order to protect our land. Remember: "United We Stand, Devised We Fall"??
Hard cold, factual evidence folks!!! We live in a world where we are allegedly innocent until PROVEN guilty. My new saying is exactly this:

FORGIVENESS OR "COMFORTABLE SILENCE"? In Memory of Rev. Clementa Pinckney,
Tywanza Sanders, Cynthia Hurd, Rev. Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, Myra Thompson,
Ethel Lance, Rev. Daniel Simmons, Rev. DePayne Middleton-Doctor and Susie
Jackson
Murderers
have a choice. They can choose NOT to go against God’s commandment by not taking someone's life or they can fulfill their grotesque need to kill and eradicate LIFE based on their hateful ideology, whatever that may be.
When I see and hear of murderous acts against good and innocent people who contributed so much to the value
of our society and God's masterpiece called Life, it takes all that I can
muster up not to personalize and cultivate the desire for vengeance. And by the
way, I usually end up succumbing to this primal compulsion of yearning for
retribution. It is said that it is our
natural instinct to react in order to self-protect against evil and when we
have been wounded. We don't naturally
offer an overflow of forgiveness, charity and understanding when we've been
wronged.
Amazingly,
the families of the victims from the
Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, offered
the murder suspect God’s love and forgiveness…FOREGIVENESS! It may sound like a
very simplistic term however, to my mind, the very notion of forgiveness and
the enormity of this concept, is difficult for me to grasp on an emotional
level. One woman told The Guardian newspaper
that she was praying for the man believed to be responsible for the mass
killing. "I'm just thinking that the devil stepped in," Avis
Williamsgrant told the paper. "I'm
praying for the young man also. We’re all God’s children, and even though he
did what he did, he was just a little sick." William Dudley Gregorie, a city councilman and
trustee of Emanuel Church, said, "We’re
not a church that hates. We’re a church that’s full of forgiveness." Jesus Christ even forgave a murderer. Who
was it? It was Saul of Tarsus - who became the Apostle Paul, the greatest
Christian who ever lived! At one time Saul hated Christians, and was
responsible for sending many of them to their death: "I persecuted the followers of this Way to their death" (Acts
22:4).
If
this murderous atrocity was perpetrated against one of my family members how
would I EVER begin to forgive the sinner?? Are you joking?? I would desire nothing more than to
stick red blazing hot fire pokers in the murderer’s eyes!! The deep level of hate and contempt
that I would bear would feel as if it could no longer be contained within the confines of my mind, heart and soul but rather burst forth like a bulging damn of water. Yet the bible instructs us to think and act otherwise.
Going
against God’s law and not forgiving the wrong doer only creates sin within us.
Being unforgiving creates a malignant cancer which grows and festers within us
and eventually kills our spirit and will blind us to the social realities of life.
Forgiveness involves
not holding the sin against the sinner any longer. Forgiveness does not mean we
should forget or trust the wrong doer. Forgiveness is different from trust. Precautions
are taken, and the dynamics of a relationship will have to change.“The prudent see
danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty”
(Proverbs 22:3). Jesus told His followers to “be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves” (Matthew 10:16).
In the context of racism and hate we must be “innocent” (willing to forgive) yet at the same time “shrewd” (being realistic and pragmatic).
Forgiveness empowers our very being and existence in the name of Jesus Christ.
As a white female anti-racist advocate and ally, I have made it one of my missions to respond to racist opinions centered on controversial news articles posted on the Internet. It never ceases to amaze me, the deep rooted racist attitudes and mindsets that still exists throughout our country! It simply boggles the imagination the level of ignorance and vile hatred which is spewed by individuals from ALL walks of life ultimately crippling our society! After reading the news article and then the multiple post responses by individual readers, I try to provide a different perspective in a non-threatening way to those of my white race who appear to view life from a very bias and stereotypic lens. I am met with such revolting and unyielding resistance from most individuals. Most will not even consider or view the value in taking the time to search out information that just might add another viewpoint for them to consider. In my frustration in not being able to appeal to their sense of humanity and invoke the slightest interest in learning new knowledge, I find myself personalizing and carrying such similar views of contempt but towards the bias and racist posters, therefore, I am mirroring their negative thoughts and behaviors. At the end of the day,
by joining in on the mud-slinging that goes occurs on the Internet news sites, I am no better than the bias posters and I also
become part of the problem instead of part of the solution.
In essence I have
learned a great deal from the family members of the shooting victims, the congregation of the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in
Charleston and The President of The United States of America, Barack Obama. I too have a choice. I have been humbled and I have begun to see
value in the concept of Forgiveness as it does not equate to a “comfortable
silence”. On the contrary, forgiveness is a necessity in order to truly see,
raise our collective voices and challenge with exuberance for that which is put
before us, in the name of racial equality.

Rachel Doleza:
It is not about the quality work that you
did for the NAACP, it s about how you went about it.
I Have Nothing More to Say About Ms. Doleza Other Than...
I have much empathy and relate to her identification with the Black American Community however, she lied. The mere fact that Ms. Doleza thought about the possibility of living as a Black woman and then proceeded to change her hair and appearance in order to begin a life as a Black woman, is white privilege. Moreover, based on her intellect and experiences, on some level she was very well aware of this, yet choose to justify her actions as a personal decision based on her desire to self identify as Black. Ms Doleza was raised and socialized within the white race. From personal experiences, no matter the level of her affinity with the Black race, there is still a level of her whiteness ingrained and cannot just simply be washed away.

Coatesville School District Two Years Ago
This is the time of year for high school proms and graduations. Two years ago on June
4, 2013, racially charged messages exchanged between Coatesville School
District Superintendent Richard Como and Jim Donato Director of Athletics and
Activities using district-issued cell phones. September of 2013 the
Coatesville School Board convened and there was a public outcry including this
issue, the length of time that it took for the incident to become public
knowledge, the back door meetings which occurred over the summer and last but
certainly NOT least, was the insult on top of the injury that these two racist
individuals were allowed to resign with their retirement pensions intact!!
This incident was just
the beginning. In the spring of 2015 after a lengthy investigation
by the Chester County District Attorney’s office, Richard Como, 68, was
arraigned on 51 felony counts of theft, fraud, and related charges at a
Coatesville district court.
Why can’t I let this
situation rest you ask??? Has justice
truly prevailed?? Once again the themes
of politics and money over shadows the core racist behavior of individuals who
began to believe he/they were untouchable. Racism is power based and Mr. Como who has
white privilege maintained his control by leveraging against white people who
were not as savvy as he, to do the bidding with and for him.
More horrendous is
that he gained the support of minority parents by appearing to the masses that
he had a genuine concern for the welfare and future of their children. Como was a powerful white person who had an
economic agenda…to steal money from the school district, community, taxpayers,
residents and the children.
I personally know
several minority parents whose children went through the Coatesville school
district as well as, excelled in numerous high school sports. They ALL believed
Como’s sincerity when visits were paid at the hospital when their child was
injured or he congratulated them when their child was one of the major contributors to a Coatesville High School
sports team winning a regional or state competition.
The bottom line is
this, while I believe that those who commit fraud and theft need to be
prosecuted, I am also of the belief that the Chester County District Attorney’s
office could have done more than score political points. They could have created numerous opportunities in which to shed light on these racist individuals and their
derogatory and racists behaviors and characterization of innocent children throughout the investigation and legal proceedings.
So what happened to the children who are the TRUE victims in this entire story as well as their families and the Black community as a whole?? I don't want to hear "well we can't prosecute them for hate crimes but at least we got them for 51 felonies". Yes this is true and as a resident of Chester County, I am relieved to some degree. But from a Anti-Racist perspective and a mother, once again, the
power base of the dominate white culture both the white collar criminals and
the Judicial system, took control and changed the entire story line, by putting the vile racist characterization of children as secondary back page news.

MEMORIAL DAY OBSERVANCE
MEDAL OF HONOR
WWII Black soldiers remained segregated even though Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 which
freed slaves held in the Confederate States. There were 464 military personnel who were awarded the highest honor...The Medal of Honor.
ZERO African Americans were awarded
The Medal of Honor
Fast forward to 1993:
A 1993 study commissioned by the Army investigated racial
discrimination in the awarding of medals. At the time, no Medals of Honor
had been awarded to black soldiers who served in World War II. After an
exhaustive review of files, the study recommended that several black
Distinguished Service Cross recipients be upgraded to the Medal of Honor.
On
January 13, 1997, President Bill Clinton awarded the Medal to seven African
American World War II veterans; of these, only Vernon Baker was still alive.
Vernon Baker and President Clinton
I asked myself the question "why award the Distinguished Service Cross medals to African American soldiers but not the upgraded Medal of Honor"? There has to be a more logical reason why not. Then the light bulb went off in my head!! There had to have been additional benefits attached to receiving the Medal of Honor and Lord and behold unfortunately I was correct.
Lets take a look at today's benefits.
Privileges
and courtesies The Medal of Honor confers special privileges on its
recipients. By law, recipients have several benefits:
Entitled to receive a monthly pension
above and beyond any military pensions or other benefits for which they may be
eligible. The pension is subject to cost-of-living increases; as of December 1,
2012, it is $1,259 a month.
Enlisted recipients of the Medal of Honor are entitled to
a supplemental uniform allowance.
This benefit
allows the recipient to travel as he or she deems fit across geographical
locations, and allows the recipient's dependents to travel either
Overseas-Overseas, Overseas-Continental US, or Continental US-Overseas when
accompanied by the recipient.
Special identification cards and commissary and exchange
privileges are provided for Medal of Honor recipients and their eligible dependents.
Recipients are granted eligibility for interment at
Arlington National Cemetery, if not otherwise eligible.
Fully qualified children of recipients are eligible for
admission to the United States military academies without regard to the
nomination and quota requirements.
Recipients receive a 10 percent increase in retired pay.
Those awarded the medal after October 23, 2002, receive a
Medal of Honor Flag. The law specified that all 103 living prior recipients as
of that date would receive a flag.
Recipients receive an invitation to all future
presidential inaugurations and inaugural balls.
I WISH I HAD EARNED THESE BENEFITS!!!

WHAT DO YOU SEE??
Keep in mind the next time you see a Black male youth in your neighborhood, what will be your very first thought about him??
You do not have to share that first thought with anyone but yourself.
Take the time to acknowledge that these thoughts are directly associated with the messages we have ALL received as children through adulthood from society beginning with the media. Take the time and begin to take notice of how the different races, gender and so on, are depicted on the news.
This young Man and his friends searched the neighborhood on their bikes. Temar had a feeling he would find her when he spotted a car with a man and young child fitting the description given by police.
You see, young Temar saved this 5 year old little girl from a white sexual predator who kidnapped her. Temar Boggs another youth, another HERO!!
LAKE MARY, Fla. (AP) — A bullet missed George Zimmerman'shead when he was involved in a shooting Monday in Florida, his attorney said, but the former neighborhood watch volunteer wasn’t seriously hurt in his latest encounter with law enforcement.
Zimmerman was sprayed with glass from his vehicle’s windshield and other debris in the Orlando suburb of Lake Mary, said his attorney Don West.
“His injuries would be considered minor,” West said. “The bullet missed his head. I think it broke a window and lodged in his vehicle.”
The Lake Mary Police Department said in a Twitter post that officers had responded to a shooting involving Zimmerman. The tweet provided no other details, and a spokeswoman didn’t return multiple phone calls.
Zimmerman was released from a hospital. He thinks he may know who is responsible for the shooting and is cooperating with authorities, West said.
Zimmerman was acquitted in 2013 of fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, in a case that sparked protests and national debate about race relations. The Justice Department later announced it was not bringing a civil rights case against Zimmerman.
Since then, Zimmerman has had several brushes with the law, including:
— He was charged with aggravated assault after being accused of throwing a wine bottle at an ex-girlfriend, Brittany Brunelle. The case was dropped in January after she recanted her story and refused to cooperate.
— Following another domestic confrontation, he was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, battery and criminal mischief after his then-girlfriend said he pointed a gun at her face during an argument, smashed her coffee table and pushed her out of the house they shared. Samantha Scheibe decided not to cooperate with detectives, and prosecutors didn’t pursue the case.
— Zimmerman was accused by his estranged wife of smashing an iPad during an argument at the home they had shared. Shellie Zimmerman initially told a dispatcher her husband had a gun, though she later said he was unarmed. No charges were filed because of a lack of evidence. The dispute occurred days after Shellie Zimmerman filed divorce papers.
— Last September, a driver said Zimmerman threatened to kill him, asking “Do you know who I am?” during a road confrontation in their vehicles. The driver decided not to pursue charges, and police officers were unable to move forward without a car tag identified or witnesses.
You know what I had to say...
I wish I would have taken 5 minutes to reflect on the Tanner post before I responded because the main issue is not me or their characterization of me, but rather their focus.
They are more worried about Zimmerman"finding his way in life before he gets himself killed or kills or hurts
someone else" rather than the child he murdered or the Black community and their years of struggle in this country or how about what they can do as white people to change the state of our country in regards to the treatment of BLACK AMERICA.
How about We the White Race start with that!!!
Yes, I acknowledge that my responses do not always have a Kumbaya feel to them, they are not meant to. Two wrongs do not make a right however, what will it take to wake up the ignorance of the majority white race??
I can guarantee that the whites who murdered, lynched, maimed, or who are just plan mean spirited oppressors, don't sing Kumbaya to the Black Community!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!
❤ HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!! ❤
New National Anthem by TI
We as white people have NO clue what it is like to be a Black Man in this country!
The Asain culture their sons are respected.
The African American culture parents bury their sons.
What does that say about us

Freddie Gray's Death Ruled Homicide, 6 Baltimore Officers Charged in His Death
Baltimore’s State Attorney Marilyn Mosby announced on Friday morning that there is probable cause to file criminal charges against the officers involved in Freddie Gray’s death.
As far as I'm concerned, the 6 go into general population...no protective custody. No one protected Freddie Gray!! 1st Degree Murder = the Death Penalty!!! BOTTOM LINE !!
NEW!!!

BALTIMORE
As you can tell, I
usually do not express my outrage about the individual murderous stories of Black Americans with the exception of the music video which is, now sadly
outdated. Up until this morning I
thought about directly addressing the catastrophe occurring right at this moment
in Baltimore Maryland, in response to the funeral of Freddie Gray, a young black
man who died while in police custody….no he was murdered while
with police. I refuse to use the word “custody” due to the definition of the
word. Yes boys and girls please take a moment and look up the definition of the
word.
Anyone who has followed me can never say that I do not
speak my mind and do so with supporting facts regarding the continual and
blatant Political, Social, Global and Domestic Economic oppression and the continued attempts
made at the destruction of Black America.
No one can say that I haven’t provided facts which support
the truth that the Black Community’s history and current day to day life experiences in the US, is
unlike any other minority group with the exception of the Native Americans.
No one can say that I haven’t provided a backdrop of
historical events which creates the timeline linkage to the present day in the 21st
Century. This includes bringing to light the murderous, vile and unjust actions perpetrated upon
Black Men, Women and children, in an attempt to demolish the family
structure.
Instead of rehashing
the facts and historical content which is provided throughout this blog forum,
I am wondering if there is ANY
humanity left in this world? Can we the white race look into ourselves
and connect to some raw emotions?? What
about delving into the world of empathetic responses?? As part of the larger
society are we the white race that far gone that we are unable to unite as one
nation under God or whatever higher power you choose, in order to bring about
justice for all??
I had a conversation with a gentleman who is also from the
Baby Boomer generation. I learned new information. He unknowingly validated my own
perspective by sharing his own personal view and he also shed light on areas
that I never thought much about.
Communication is a critical component to bridging the
racial divide however; we as white people need to learn how to listen…and for God sakes just SHUT UP and LISTEN for a change!! Ask questions rather than defending the
social injustices by rambling on and using
the word “BUT” followed by anoffensive excuse, justification or YOUR take on a community you know nothing about! Just SHUT-UP for once!
I detected an overwhelming
sense of sadness and frustration that Mr. James had unknowingly projected
regarding the treatment of his community. He told me that the newest outrage which is
occurring in Baltimore is more than just a reaction to the funeral of Freddie
Gray. In short it is a violent protest in response to the buildup of numerous
racially based historical and contemporary acts, that are consistently
ignored, devalued or eradicated from view.
Although I have heard the following statement several times
and in different contexts, when Mr. James framed it for me, the emotions conjured
up a deep sorrow and regret. I have sorrow and regret that OUR supposed great land which was allegedly built on the premise of
freedom was in actuality, built on a blood stained foundation of non-tolerance,
hatred, and multiple layers of inequality.
Mr. James stated that:
“I am one traffic stop away from death”.
8 POWERFUL WORDS! READ THAT AGAIN!!!
DO YOU HAVE THE INSIGHT TO EVEN ATTEMPT TO TRY AND WONDER
WHAT THAT FEELING MIGHT B E LIKE TO
LIVE WITH EVERYDAY?
I have white privilege therefore, I don ‘t have to worry
about anything when I get into my car and drive to the store other than a possible
speeding ticket, the car breaking down or becoming involved in a car accident.
I’m definitely not thinking or worrying about a police officer KILLING MY ASS!!
All of you who ignore injustices, brain wash yourselves
into believing that there is nothing that you can do that will make a
difference and to those of you who continue to turn a blind eye to the
historically based oppressive and murderous social conditions built by white
America, you will all eventually come to the realization that you, yes you,
also contribute to this legacy which you are bequeathing to “your” children and
MINE! NO these conditions are not only a result of the actions of the generations before us!!
Screw our ancestors; I’m sick of hearing that lame excuse…
I am talking about YOU & ME!!
You go right ahead and continue talking the rhetoric of how
you are not bias; you do not discriminate against Black Men, Women, and
Children. Please continue to rant about how slavery ended years ago, therefore,
the Black community needs to stop whining, after all they do have Affirmative
Action which by the way, we continue to dismantle and we want to do away with it anyway!!!
Continue to discount the obvious institutional based oppression
and discriminatory practices which continues to fortify the governing
institutions and laws in this country as well as support those who oversee the
distribution of resources and wealth, both domestically and globally!
Continue to believe that all it takes to level the social
and economic playing fields is for the Black community to help themselves by pulling
themselves up by their boot straps and “do
a little hard work”.
Continue to support the violence and murderous treatment of
Black Men and Youth by law enforcement AS
WELL AS the Judicial System's form of continued slavery....
the prison system.
Continue the violence by holding on to the belief that all
it would take to stop this violence from occurring, is for Black Men to obey
the law, this would certainly stop the police from murdering innocent Black Men and
Youth. I mean after all…. “They” must have done something to
provoke this societal madness.
Keep the delusions alive by holding on tightly to the conviction
that in no way are we the white race, the dominate culture and the ultimate
decision makers, responsible for decades of skewed judgments that ultimately built….
“The Child to Adult Prison Pipeline”
Disproportionate number
of Black children enter the Foster care system;
Disproportionate number
of Black children remain longer in the
Foster care system
Disproportionate number
of Black children in Foster Care and their families receive fewer services than
white families
Disproportionate number
of Black children are labeled as “Special Education” students when many are not
Disproportionate
numbers of Black Youth who are or were in the Foster care system now become a
statistic regarding the…
Increased number of
contacts by law enforcement which leads to…
Disproportionate number
of Black youth enters the Juvenile Justice system…
Disproportionate number
of Black youth then transition into the Adult Criminal Justice system
Disproportionate number
of Black Men are incarcerated for
non-violent offences
Disproportionate number
of Black Men who are sentenced and sent to jail when they are innocent.
These statistics aren’t enough
for you? They don’t cover multiple areas in society?? I didn’t think so!! Go back and read my blog article
titled “Black America”. There are
enough facts that will either change your mind or continue to harden your heart
and remove what’s left of your soul!!
History demonstrates how white society continues to do
everything in its power to exterminate the Black Man thereby; abolishing the
Black Family unit. Did you ever wonder or care that year after year a small
number of true historical facts in our children's history books continues to be slowly extracted?? Why you ask?? Because part
of the dominate culture wants OUR
children to learn how America was built by reading a book reflecting a
whitewashed story line of “whiteness”. This in turn, strengthens the wealthy elite's stronghold of the wealth and resources domestically and globally.
Human nature
relies on the basic functions relating to self-preservation, self-protection,
and survival. Continue to try and threaten the existence of
a population of human beings and you will be on the receiving end of survival
mode. Remember, survival of the fittest?
I do not condone or support violence towards the
oppressors.
