Widespread Shock and Condemnation as Neo-Nazi Group Marches in Madison, WI But Whites Want To Come After Me For Meeting Like With Like! Seriously??!!!

Yeah, come on up in here with some more bullshit, whites about how I am NOT promoting unity and harmony with your pasty asses, and I swear to you, I will mop the cyber floor with your pasty asses. If a bunch of Black folks had marched with raised fists in the air, shouting, “We are going to fuck your white asses the fuck up,!” not only would the Klan kops have been called in to disrupt that shit, those who marched would be looking like Swiss cheese on a slab in the damn morgue and you know that shit to be true, but was that the case with those Neo-Nazis, the likes of which we have been funding via our tax dollars over in Ukraine? Fuck no!

Widespread Shock and Condemnation as Neo-Nazi Group Marches in Madison: A Challenging Moment for America

 

Neo-Nazis provoked swift condemnation this weekend in Madison, Wisconsin, as they marched, displaying swastika flags and making Nazi salutes.

Over the weekend, Madison, Wisconsin, witnessed a disturbing march by approximately 20 neo-Nazis, clad in red and black attire, masks, and waving large Nazi flags. 

Some whites come at Black people and castigate us, talking about we “bring race into everything,” while saying nothing about those thugs that marched through Madison, Wisconsin, who actually quite proudly display the fact that they intend to ALWAYS make sure that “race is everything.” Do the whites castigate those shits? Do they tell their homies in those ‘hate’ organizations that that shit is wrong on so many levels? Do they take their kinfolk in hand and admonish them for their insanity over hating people who are here through no fault of their own, but who are here thanks to the deviant shit that make up what the whites are? That would be a big fucking, “Hell no!” Because the whites are instead, trying to admonish my Black ass for calling their fucking rabid racist asses out on the vile and filthy shit they get up to, have always been up to against our innocent asses.

Madison Police actively monitored the group, acknowledging the public’s concerns reported through numerous 911 calls.

In response, the police department emphasized its commitment to protecting First Amendment rights while distancing itself from supporting hateful rhetoric.

Awwwww…ain’t that nice. The Klan kops state that hate groups have the right to shout hateful ‘rhetoric’ at those of us who have a permanent tan, but when it comes to Asians and Zionists, the US has initiated laws that state, “NO HATE SPEECH SHALL BE DIRECTED AT ASIANS AND ZIONISTS AS THAT WOULD CONSTITUTE A HATE CRIME.” But why were no arrests made and hate crimes charges brought against this group for actively engaging in that shit? Because of who was doing the marching and hate spewing, that’s why. But the whites always want to get up in my face and accuse me of not wanting to join hands and get into a big circle and “Kumbaya” with them. They accuse me of spewing hate at them, at always making things ‘about race’ but never do they accost those who look like them who are out on the streets, loudly spewing that shit with gusto. You don’t see whites running their kinfolk in the ground for spewing vile ass racist shit at those of us with a permanent tan, and what’s more, you won’t. They will run me in the ground for countering that shit, admonishing me for having the audacity to speak my mind on my own damn blog. Why y’all useless fucks crawl all up in here is a complete and utter mystery to me because I will continue to call you out on your outrageous double standard bullshit, whites!!

You can attempt to castigate me, admonish me to your damn hell and back and it won’t make a damn bit of difference because I will continue to call your worthless asses out over the racist fuck shit you do and the fact that not a goddamn thing has changed in centuries in this shithole. I will continue to put it front and center that no Black ass in this shithole should turn their back on you because you’d stab us in it in a fucking heartbeat and think nothing of it, which you do, constantly, but then have the nerve to not appreciate us NOT appreciating YOU!!!! What fucking sense does that shit make? Not a damn bit, but you insane fucks want us to sit on YOUR fucking couch, while you claim that we are mucked up in the head from taking the shit from your racist asses. What sense does that make? Us expecting to get relief, even on a psychiatric couch, from our damn vile, flaming racist enemies? NONE whatsoever!

So, bring your fucking racist asses on up in here, just attempting to pitch a bitch over this here blog and I swear to your fake ass god that I will make sure that you understand and in no uncertain terms, just what the fuck I think about you worthless, no account, unhinged, racist lunatics, who will come at me for stating the truth, but who got nothing to say about or to those of your own kind who are out on the streets making sure that those who look like me understand that you hate our fucking guts because you are insane. I don’t need reminders of that shit because I know you pale ass bitches are insane.

You’ve damn well destroyed this world and all there in because you’re greedy and insane. The world is on the brink of a world war because you bloodless parasite leeches are insane. Those of us who are the innocents on this planet have had to put up with the likes of you and we ain’t hardly happy about that shit and hopefully, those who are not completely ruled by the DNA that is your fucking calling card, can wipe you worthless shits off the face of this planet for good!! Oh, the sun is indeed, helping us because your pasty asses are all up in Dermatology clinics pointing to a fucking suspicious mole on your ass talking about what to do about that shit. Die, that’s what!! This next bitch showcases just what the fuck I’m talking about. This is going to be your white asses in just a few short years and what’s more, you know this!

This woman is fucked up and looks it. 

EEEEWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!! Look at her skin, and you bloodless fucks think that you are going to make me hate the beautiful tan that is MY skin? Fuck if you are! I would take looking like ME ANY DAY over looking like THAT!! LMAO!!! Let me get up off the floor over laughing at THAT one! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Me? Want to look like YOU? Never fucking think it! Ain’t no way in hell that you could ever get me to want to look like that fucked up shit in the above picture! Get the fuck outta here!!!

And Black people find the ‘beauty’ in THAT shit? Yeah, y’all stupid fucks have most definitely been dropped on your damn dumb ass heads, times too numerous to count!

This is BEAUTY!

As I look at that beautiful skin and note it’s smooth, sunlit glow, it reminds me of a poem I wrote. But first, look at the picture of that pasty shit in the picture above this one, you see exactly what I see. You can’t help it. That is one of the reasons why whites hate us, hence why there are more and more, “in our face” Ads that showcase Black men with those white parasites and Black women with those white parasites. Whites are being destroyed and what’s more, they know this which is why they have upped that racist shit to the nth degree. And expect it to get worse. But we’ll handle it just like we always have. I don’t fear you whites because your day is here and you ain’t got too many and what’s more, you know this. Your kind is getting wiped out and as much as you try and ‘breed’ with those of us who are the true children of this planet, it’s not going to work. They’ll get handled; the product of that intermixing, you can rest assured of that!

But I did promise a poem!

I Am Not A Shell Of A Human Lacking Humanity!

Strong hands rest on gently rounded hips,
smooth dark skin and thick, full lips.
Tightly curled hair, my crowning glory.
a picture perfect, wordless story.

Sculpted features, carved by time,
upon my face, not one wrinkle or line.
Legs that stand firm to bear my weight,
and a Teflon coating that repels all hate.

Torn from Africa and brought to these shores,
compared and found lacking to pale-skinned whores.
Desire in the eyes of sickly white men,
with fetid breath and reeking of gin.

Sent to the fields and whipped every day,
trying to understand why I’m treated this way.
No hope of returning to the home that I loved.
I’m poked and prodded, pushed and shoved.

Stripped and sold and draped in chains,
told that I’m an animal and that I have no brains.
Am I a beast of burden or the white man’s slave?
To him, I am both until I’m lowered in my grave.

He will have to whip me, both day and night.
And still, he’ll not crush me nor dim my light.
It glows from within, and it will not die.
My bloodline will continue to multiply.

I will not worship his god, a deity of hate,
nor confine my soul to the white man’s fate.
That is not who I am and never will be,
I am not a shell of a human lacking humanity.

Not one descendant of slaves is a shell of a human lacking humanity; that’s the whites’ description and what’s more, they wouldn’t have it any other way!

To my Black brothers and sisters, I want to remind you that it is incumbent upon us to continue to beat back against the tide of hatred that has always been roaring in our direction via our common mortal foe, but be that as it may, time is on OUR side, not theirs. And if you need any encouragement, please feel free to read this blog that I wrote. Thank you!

The Extraordinary Courage of Black People

It takes an extraordinary amount of courage to get up every morning knowing that you face an enemy who hates you more than you can ever know and that their hatred of you is so intense, they are consumed by it. And yet, descendants of slaves do so every single morning…or night, depending on when your ‘day’ starts.

Three Households Threatened With Evictions Everyday In Lynchburg Virginia.

 

 

As some of you may already know, I was born in this hillbilly hellhole and I never liked living here for multiple reasons, hence why I left and stayed gone for the majority of my life. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of coming back, but it looks like I will be leaving again, shortly. But until then, I am going to continue with the series on Lynchburg, Virginia because it’s getting to some folks….and how!

Three households threatened with eviction every day in Lynchburg

An average of three families are threatened with eviction every day in Lynchburg, making it among the worst in the country for a city of its size, according to a new analysis of eviction records in the region.

Nearly nine out of every 100 renting households in the city faced a court-ordered eviction in 2016, giving it the ninth highest eviction rate among Virginian cities larger than 20,000 residents. Lynchburg renters faced eviction more than three-and-a-half times higher than the national average.

Throughout the course of 2016, 1,207 households were ordered to vacate their homes, according to the analysis by the Virginia Legal Aid Society. A year later, another 1,167 faced eviction.

But..but..but..the The Falwells and their ‘Moral Majority’ bullshit is sitting all up in Lynchburg, doing their ‘christian’ duty of making sure that their fellow man/woman/child who is living in poverty is getting some damn help. Right? Wrong!

Lynchburg is a city made up of two types of people; those who say, “Do as I say, not as I do,” and those who better do what they say..and they do. And then, there’s me. But I digress.

The reason why what is going down in Lynchburg is going down is because the whites here figure that not a one of these Black folks ever made it off the plantation. In fact, most Black folks in Lynchburg act like they never made it off the plantation. They are absolutely terrified of these whites here and with good reason. Since I have been back, I have been fighting like hell against these white sociopaths here who are wealthy beyond anyone’s wildest dreams thanks to slavery. Whites here own all the choice land, although truth be known, if you’re in this Hillybilly Cornhoe, you tell yourself everyday that there is no choice anything about this racist shithole. However, since whites own most of the property with the exception of a few Black folks who have licked some whites’ asses clean so many times, they’ve thrown them a bone or two, there are mostly ‘Old Money’ whites and poor Black folk, plus  the poor whites that hang with the poor Black folks who the ‘Old Money’ whites consider to be ‘poor white trash’.

You see, Lynchburg was an experiment. It was the perfect place for one; nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains almost cut off from the rest of the world. In fact, right across the bridge from Lynchburg in Madison Heights, houses what was known as the Central Virginia Training Center and in that building, were housed those who were developmentally disabled and who were sent there by their parents or other family members who could not or did not want to take care of them. But that facility has since closed and the residents have all been placed in group homes. But let’s get back to why there are so many, mostly Black people, getting evicted.

The growing disparity between rich and poor and stagnating wages may also play a part in evictions. Between 1990 and 2016, median rents in Lynchburg rose 14% while wages decreased 5%, according to a report released earlier this year by the Lynchburg Regional Housing Collaborative

Tenants aren’t the only ones eager to avoid the courts. Property owners also dread appearing before a judge, according to Antonio Rose, a Lynchburg landlord who owns about two dozen rentals across the city.

Eviction paperwork is time consuming for landlords and the court process could take several weeks to resolve, he said. In the meantime, tenants may still be living in a rental unit without paying rent, cutting off a landlord’s source of income.

In some cases, Rose has opted to pay delinquent tenants to vacate his rentals — an informal workaround known among landlords as a “cash for key eviction.” He said he once offered a tenant $400 to move out.

“It saves time,” he said.

That bastard is one of Lynchburg’s worse slumlords. Antonio Rose owns rooming houses and few fucked up looking apartments and he treats his tenants like shit, but then so do damn near ALL landlord/slumlords in this damn burg. Now, Antonio Rose is Black and the stories I have heard about him would curl the devil’s toes as to how he also treats his tenants. But then who is surprised at what goes on especially if you have read any of my previous blogs about this damn shithole named Lynchburg.

Eviction orders also have trended down in recent years. Between 2013 — when judges awarded 1,412 evictions — and 2017, the number of court-ordered evictions orders dropped about 17%. But Lynchburg’s 8.62% eviction rate still exceeds national and state averages. According to Princeton’s Eviction Lab, the national eviction rate is 2.34% and the Virginia rate is 5.12%.

Now THAT is extremely telling. Now, read this while I weep!

Since 2009, no landlord has filed more lawsuits than Lynchburg’s Public Housing Authority

Later this week a flurry of notices will appear in the mailboxes of residents living in Lynchburg’s four public housing complexes.

The notices carry a blunt message: If the rent is not paid within the next two weeks, your lease will be terminated.

Time after time, the housing authority has made good on that threat.

Over the past decade, no landlord in the city has moved to evict more residents than the Lynchburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority, according to an analysis of more than 20,000 court records by The News & Advance.

Last year, the authority — which houses nearly 1,000 low-income residents across 328 apartments — filed eviction lawsuits against almost a third of all households, court records show.

Dawn Fagan, the executive director of the LRHA, said the money the authority collects from rent is a crucial piece of what keeps the authority functioning. According to the authority’s 2018 financial plan, rent payments make up about a fifth of all revenue allocated for public housing. The federal government provides about $1.6 million in subsidies every year, while rent brings in another $500,000.

So let me get this straight, the $500,000 in rent payments is what is keeping the Lynchburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority, afloat? Here is an idea, storm the offices of HUD and find out why there is insufficient funds being dished out to housing authorities all across this shithole because if the Biden Administration can pull billions out of thin air to send to Ukraine, then they goddamn well can find some more billions to see that HUMANS are housed who are having difficulties what with losing their jobs, low wage jobs, excessive child care expenses, high food prices, insane electricity charges from one of the power companies with the highest rates for electricity, American Electric Power Company, high ass gas and diesel prices and the list is endless, but I highly doubt that what this “Dawn Fagan” has said about what keeps the LRHA afloat is the truth. Gotta blame the poor folk who need to make use of public housing because it is poor folks fault for being poor.

How in the world is a housing authority, governed by HUD, you know HUD, the agency responsible for funding housing for even HOMELESS PEOPLE, evicting so damn many people without a red flag popping up and someone saying, “Whoa, hold on a minute! What the fuck’s going on? You are supposed to be in the business of ‘housing’ people, not making them homeless. And why no working out what the problem is and finding solutions to keep people housed as opposed to throwing them into homelessness?”

And what has Lynchburg’s mayor said about any of this? Crickets are chirping because you see, as far as Lynchburg’s mayor is concerned, it’s just business as usual. Not one political figure has publicly stated one word about the serious issues of evictions, abject poverty, homelessness caused by evictions and so forth and so on. In fact, my cousin was heading to Baltimore and he caught a train and while he was waiting to catch the bus at 5:15am to the train station, a homeless woman approached him, pushing a shopping cart and since he was carrying sandwiches to eat on the train, he asked her if she wanted one. She thanked him politely and said that she had a few snacks and she went on her way, pushing the shopping cart in the street since there are hardly any sidewalks in this dead ass burg. But it brings me to another story that I read, a homeless man sat on a bus stop bench, right in front of my quack’s office and died. He just sat there and died and no one knew the man was dead until someone came along to sit at the bus stop waiting for a bus and discovered his dead body.

People, all of this is Lynchburg, Virginia. Tell your loved ones and even those whom you hate to STAY FAR, FAR AWAY FROM THIS SHITHOLE!!!!! And I cannot stress this enough! There is nothing here but racism, ignorance, hate, Jim Crow, homelessness, poverty, hypocrisy and a feudal system unlike anything you have ever heard of. In order to sue any whites in this burg, you have to go OUTSIDE of this dead ass, racist burg to find a lawyer willing to take these vile, vicious shits, head on and that is no lie!

Our mail is being fucked with as far as delivery is concerned. There is a target on this household because we are the ONLY two Black people in this dead ass, racist burg that have been going toe to toe with these damn vicious, lying, filthy racist, bottom feeding, scum sucking slugs. And until we get the fuck up out of here, it is war. I am using this blog to showcase just some of the fuckery that we have experienced since we have been here. But one thing about me is that they can dish it out to me, but goddamn it, I’m going to make you regret fucking with me. I was born here and so I know these worthless racist shits. I put nothing past them. And the latest blogs showcase just what I’ve been up against and why I got the hell out years ago. I am just sorry I came back. I am not giving these racists all the details about what I’m up to and so I will end this blog at that. But I cannot stress, do NOT even visit this hellhole which brings me to mention this, a man was on a train I was on heading for Baltimore. He was an elderly Black man and he was in much distress since he was telling the train ticket agent that he had just been released from the hospital and needed the train officials to alert a hospital in Baltimore to please have an ambulance waiting for him when the train arrived in Baltimore. The man had so many ‘alert’ bracelets on his arm, I was alarmed. But he sat on that train until it reached Baltimore and as I turned back upon exiting the train, a gurney was pulling up and he was being placed on it. That man had to get the fuck up out of Lynchburg to get the help he needed and I am sure that he will never grace Lynchburg with his presence ever again. And I am sure, as far as he is concerned, it is a case of, “Good riddance to racist garbage!”

Trump To The Friends And Family Of The El Paso, TX And Dayton, OH Mass Shooting Victims, “Mental Illness Killed Your Loved Ones!”

So, according to Donald Trump, white supremacy is a mental illness and to cure white supremacy mental illness, treat it like you would if whites only had affluenza,

1.af·flu·en·za
1.a psychological malaise supposedly affecting wealthy ‘white’ young people, symptoms of which include a lack of motivation, feelings of guilt, and a sense of isolation.

And so now we have white supremacyenza, a psychological malaise affecting racist whites, symptoms of which include posting white nationalist manifestos on Facebook, acquiring massive stock piles of assault rifles, hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition due to the belief that white people constitute a superior race and should therefore dominate society, typically to the exclusion or detriment of other racial and ethnic groups and therefore, all other groups should be targeted for annihilation and so get to shooting.

To cure this affliction, the subject should be given a few therapeutic sessions on a couch, some anti-white supremacy medications, a pat on the head and be released back into society, so suggests Donald Trump.

Trump focuses on combating mental illness over new gun-control measures

He outlined a number of possible steps, including so-called “red-flag laws,” that focus on better identifying mentally ill people who should not be allowed to purchase firearms.

“Mental illness and hatred pull the trigger. Not the gun,” said Trump, who did not take questions from reporters.

Inciting racists and fanning the flames of hatred have no impact on why white males have been going on mass shooting sprees or so Trump would have us believe. He is as usual assuming no responsibility for what he has encouraged with his racist rhetoric. To get re-elected, he has stated that members of hate groups were “good people,” even as their actions led to murder when a member of said group used his car to mow down protesters that resulted in one death in Charlottesville, VA. His racist rhetoric at his rallies has promoted discord among attendees resulting in numerous fights breaking out.

Meanwhile, violence across America escalates to the point whereas in Chicago, a hospital had to go on “on bypass” due to the fact that too many people had gotten shot and the hospital could not take in any more gun shot victims.

Chicago hospital stops accepting patients after trauma center is overwhelmed with shooting victims
Chicago’s Mount Sinai Hospital temporarily stopped accepting patients Sunday morning because they were at capacity following a series of shootings, a hospital official said.

The hospital went “on bypass” in the early morning, said Roberta Rakove, Senior VP for External Affairs.

Hospitals use the term “on bypass” when they stop accepting ambulance runs and those ambulances are diverted to other trauma centers. Mount Sinai Hospital is one of five trauma centers in Chicago.

So while folks were getting shot to death in El Paso, TX, and Dayton, OH, multiple people were getting shot in Chicago to the point whereas one hospital was so overwhelmed with trauma victims that it could accept no more. When are we going to understand that we have a serious problem in America? When will the endless rhetoric about mental illness committing mass murder cease and those like Trump and others who make up the GOP start calling it what it is? When is the lamestream media going to call itself out for helping to perpetuate this whacked shit by sensationalizing it? When are we going to realize that all of this so-called mass surveillance of us is being used for other purposes since it damn sure as hell is not being used to stop mass shootings? With cameras everywhere and with the NSA supposedly spying on our every keystroke, one would think that someone, somewhere would have knowledge about this shit before it takes place. Why is it that white nationalist manifestos posted on Facebook and other so-called social media sites are always found AFTER the shooter has killed his targets? Why are our tax dollars being wasted paying for the Department of Homeland Security, The National Security Agency, The Federal Bureau of Investigation and even the Pentagon since they are doing fuck all about stopping these killers that have posted their intent for ALL the world to see? Those government agencies are not dropping the ball on this shit, they are deliberately letting this shit happen. Why else is the Pentagon claiming that it has launched unmanned surveillance balloons only in an effort to locate drug pushers? Why not use that surveillance shit to monitor hate groups?

Pentagon launching drug surveillance balloons over Midwest

The Pentagon is testing the high-altitude, solar-powered balloons across six states, The Guardian reported on Friday.

The balloons were launched to provide “a persistent surveillance system” for narcotic trafficking and homeland security threats, according to a filing with the Federal Communications Commission.

So, while white nationalists are online posting white nationalist manifestos that reveal that they have amassed a shitload of weapons and are about to shoot up some folks, the massive surveillance system installed by the Pentagon is only aimed at locating “narcotic traffickers?” Seriously???!!! They had that shit up in the Midwest while dude was in the Midwest shooting up people in Dayton, OH and they didn’t see dude with a gun since their spy shit can carry sensors and communication gear capable of detecting every vehicle in motion in a 25-mile range beneath the balloon, but cannot detect a guy carrying a high-powered assault weapon? I demand my goddamn tax money back that paid for that shit!

Meanwhile a cousin of two victims who were shot dead in Dayton, OH has a message for Donald “mental illness killed your cousins” Trump!

Unfortunately, his message falls on deaf ears and is only good for soundbites. And soon, if the stock market continues to free fall thanks to Chinese tariffs, even this will no longer be news.

A person who wishes to remain anonymous asked me to post a poem that I wrote and though I had posted that poem for other reasons, they thought that it was fitting for what is going down because people are now extra fearful over going about their daily lives what with hate being spewed, left and right from the halls of congress and especially from the WhiteRight House. I don’t think any poem is going to help matters in this country as things have gone beyond crazy and there will never be anything to approach rationality. However, I will post the poem.

Fear Is Not A Halloween Mask!

Fear is not a Halloween mask,
nor is it a walk through a graveyard.
Fear is waking up behind a dumpster
knowing that you can never let down your guard.

Fear is not ghosts and ghouls in fiction books,
nor is it a jack-o’-lantern’s evil grin.
Fear is having a pain in your side
and a bullet mark on your skin.

Fear is not a witch riding on a broom,
nor is it a cauldron boiling hot.
Fear is looking into the eyes of a killer
right before you’re about to get shot.

Fear is not a vampire biting on a neck,
nor is it a movie about a Nightmare On Elm Street.
Fear is the life you live of desperation,
hopelessness, misery and defeat.

No, we don’t need Halloween
to bring out the fear in our lives.
All we need do is live another day
to know real fear and why it thrives.

So no, we don’t need Halloween to bring out the fear in our lives. All we need do is face another day to know real fear and why it thrives. It thrives because hate thrives. That hate is meant to induce fear. And hate thrives because there are those who incite others to act out on their hate, whether it is to get elected or re-elected or to promote an agenda of an ‘all white Amerikkka’ or for some other reason. Fear is a real part of our lives, the fear of just going to the store to shop for back-to-school items and realizing that anyone can be carrying a high-powered assault weapon ready to aim it at us because Americans are armed to the teeth. The calls for gun control are too little, too late because as I have already stated, Americans are armed to the teeth. And now people are beginning to fear ‘living’ since it is quite clear that hatred kills and hatred is everywhere!

Welcome to AmeriKKKA! Why would you want to come here??!!

As The Supreme Court Concludes That Trump Can Spend $2.5 Billion In Military Funds To Build A Southern Border Wall, Puerto Rico Is Still Suffering From Hurricane Maria

Priorities! Priorities! And Puerto Rico is most definitely NOT a priority, building a southern border wall is, so says Donald Trump and the conservative members of the Supreme Court.

Supreme Court says Trump can proceed with plan to spend military funds for border wall construction

A split Supreme Court said Friday night that the Trump administration could proceed with its plan to use $2.5 billion in Pentagon funds to build part of the president’s wall project along the southern border.

The court’s conservatives set aside a lower-court ruling for the Sierra Club and a coalition of border communities that said reallocating Defense Department money would violate federal law.

Nothing Trump does violates the law. The man has no known kryptonite; none. Billions are destined for a wall to keep those south of the border from coming here and yet those south of the border have to put up with drunk gringos every single time Spring Break rolls around. Not to mention the gringos that head south of the border for medical and dental procedures that are less costly there than in the U.S. Too bad that those countries south of the border so badly need those ‘gringo’ dollars and so cannot afford to turn anyone away.

And so we come to this!

“This is Puerto Rico”: A community still suffering from Maria

San Juan — It’s known as “La Cordillera Central,” or “Between Mountains,” a lush mountain area ravaged by Hurricane Maria.

People like 76-year-old Domingo Villafane, who CBS News spoke to on a bridge that keeps washing away every time there is a storm.

Domingo said he would tell the people of America that Puerto Rico is “abandoned.”

Abandoned by a government that is notoriously slow for getting money to municipalities that still haven’t recovered. The mayor’s budget is only $8.5 million for the island’s third-largest municipality of 33,000 people.

The road to the home of Domingo is collapsing and the mayor said he uses sand and rocks from the river because he can’t afford to do it the right way.

Domingo took us to his home, a two-room house on the top of a hill. He lost his whole roof during Maria. The new one is tin with holes. When it rains, it rains inside.

I am pretty sure that no one has forgotten Hurricane Maria. Hurricane Maria was a deadly Category 5 hurricane that devastated Dominica, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico in September 2017. It is regarded as the worst natural disaster on record to affect those islands and is also the deadliest Atlantic hurricane since Jeanne in 2004. And yet two years later, it is quite apparent that the only help that Puerto Rico received from Donald Trump was a roll of paper towels. Meanwhile, he is busy trying to keep some more Spanish speaking people from coming to the U.S. while claiming that those who hail from Puerto Rico need to go back to their “crime infested shitholes and clean them up!” This fool cannot seem to grasp the fact that Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, meaning that people from Puerto Rico ARE American citizens. What Trump must also fail to comprehend is that the “crime infested shithole” that he is referring to quite happens to be the United States of Amerikkka! There is no greater “crime infested shithole” on the face of this planet than the United States of Amerikkka! Must I repeat that??!!!

It is a crying shame that the mayor’s budget for the third largest municipality in Puerto Rico is a measly $8.5 million, but then since Puerto Rico has been all but abandoned by the venture capitalists who have drained Puerto Rico of anything of value, no wonder there is no money to make necessary repairs after the devastation of a Category 5 hurricane. And now that Trump’s friends have abandoned the sinking ship called, “Puerto Rico,” Trump has as well because he has much bigger fish to fry; a racist supporter base to play up to in an attempt to continue to sit his obese McDonald’s fed ass inside the Oval Office spewing hate and misogyny to anyone not of his sickly pale complexion.

No average person in this shithole stands a snowball’s chance in hell of making it; not the people of Puerto Rico and hell…not even the people where I live. Those people in hurricane ravaged Puerto Rico have much company when it comes to suffering from neglect by hate-filled politicians. Like me, take a walk around the city you live in and really take in what you see; people with missing or no teeth, people who look sick as shit, homeless people with no hope. And yet these people in my neck of the woods are busy holding a bible in one hand while covering their mouth with the other in an attempt to shield blackened nubs that once were teeth from the shocked gaze of people like me who are not used to seeing such. Yes, I am from this burg, but I never stayed for long and so it still shocks me when I come back and see the condition of the majority of this burg’s people looking like shit.

And so yes, Trump’s “shithole” comments are most definitely hitting the mark since he is indeed speaking of the United States of Amerikkka when he says ”So interesting to see ​’​Progressive​’​ Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly​ ​and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run​.” “Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how​ it is done​.” “​These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough.”

That bears repeating.

”So interesting to see ​’​Progressive​’​ Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly​ ​and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run​.” “Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how​ it is done​.” “​These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough.” Donald Trump

Donald Trump, you are absofuckinglutely right! The United States of Amerikkka IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL CATASTROPHE, THE WORST AND MOST CORRUPT AND INEPT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, ONE WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING GOVERNMENT AT ALL. And so why don’t you FIX THE TOTALLY BROKEN AND CRIME INFESTED SHITHOLE THIS COUNTRY REALLY IS??!! You cannot because YOU and those like YOU are why this shithole IS THE WORST AND MOST CORRUPT AND INEPT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD and likely to remain so. Fuck YOU! And tell your fucking sluttish tramp of a wife to go back from whence she came and also send her parents packing since they are a direct result of chain migration. Trump’s wife should be the first to go back to Novo Mesto, Slovenia since that is where she was born. But of course, “Go back” does not apply to the lily white Europeans. “Go back” only applies to those who are from U.S. territories or from south of the border. The sad fact of the matter is that Donald Trump is going to continue to sit his vile ass in the Oval Office and serve out another term and the reasons are crystal clear; the rabid hatred that he projects is spreading. Look around you because that hatred IS all around you!

We Can’t Make America Great Again — From Queen to Queens

Today has been difficult for me. Last night as I watched the midterm election results pour in, the hope and joy I felt of the possible restoration of America as I once knew it was quickly replaced by a deep sadness. I, like many people last night, expected a “blue wave” or the overwhelming election […]

via We Can’t Make America Great Again — From Queen to Queens

 

Every single word is right on point! I could not have said it better if I tried. Even though this stolen nation was never great, this young lady brings home her point.

And I will admit, I didn’t even bother voting. I had too much to do. I have not been blogging lately because I have been out in the trenches taking poor sick people to appointments, to grocery shop, to pick up their children from daycare and the list is endless because so many are living in ‘food deserts’ and public transportation is a joke that isn’t at all funny.

While those of you who were standing in line voting, hoping that whites would get their collective act together and disassociate themselves from who and what they are, there were those of us out there doing what we can with what we have because we know ‘whites’. We don’t want to, but we do. Those of us who are descendants of slaves have been on the receiving end of racism, bigotry, prejudice, hatred and violence since our ancestors were dragged here and only through the advent of technology has the world been made aware of our plight in Amerikkka, not that it’s done us any obvious good, nor will it. We have to help one another. No politician on the local, state or national level is going to do a damn thing about a damn thing besides line their pockets by continuing to sell us out since they are owned by corporations and we ALL know how corporations are treating their ‘workers’.

I have heard that women made inroads in the political field  and the LGBTQ community did likewise. Well now, ain’t that just something. Every other ‘group’ will always make headway but those of us who are descended from slaves, we best sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up because a white supremacist’s bullet has our name all over it and the murder of us by them is sanctioned by a government that will never truly be a representative government to us because if we have to be declared ‘citizens’ by amendments to the Constitution, then what does that tell you? I’ll give you a hint. Several prominent politicians and wannabe politicians have made statements in essence saying that “slavery was the best era in Amerikkkan history.” The sad fact of the matter is, what has changed? With three million Black men and women locked up in cages, slavery never went anywhere. It just morphed into the Prison Industrial Complex. Every person who is a descendant of slaves is on lockdown every goddamn day and don’t we ALL fucking know this. We’d better fucking make sure every goddamn light on our vehicles is in functioning order because if not, we are going to be pulled over and nine times out of ten, shot for “failing to comply with orders barked at us by a member of the Klan.”

Who the hell is going to do a damn thing about the school-to-prison pipeline? No member of congress is. We have got to go into our schools and mentor our children. Take those smartphones away from them and put a book into their hands. Who is going to open the prison doors and free our brothers and sisters? No member of congress is. We have got to become lawyers and defend our own in a system set up to send us straight to prison because many of us are too poor to afford a good attorney and so we end up with a public defender. Who in unholy hell thinks that a white parasite paid by the ‘state’ is going to do a damn thing to help a descendant of slaves stay out of jail over some bullshit ass charges? Are we even helping our elderly neighbor get to a doctor’s appointment or asking her if she needs to be taken to the grocery store or to run an errand? There is plenty that we can do. It does not have to be anything big. We don’t need a big, huge church building and a 501c exemption. Churches aren’t the answer. Religion isn’t the answer because if it was, would the shit that’s going down today, be going down if religion is the answer? Hell fucking no! The money that the Reverend, Bishop, Pastor, Rabbi and the like take from the blind, the stupid and the gullible all goes where? You see ANY evidence of church funds helping out the community? Oh, they’ll dole out some expired canned goods, but that’s about it. Why is homelessness so problematic when we have palaces of worship all across this godforsaken country doing fuck all about it? I wish to hell I thought I’d step foot inside one of those palaces of hypocrisy and sit up and listen to dog shit from a pedophile or another hypocrite who is preaching at me about sin and who is, after church service, fooling around on his wife with one or two of the ushers.

Black folks, despair is for those who have no hope. As long as there is someone in need in the ‘Black community’, there is someone who could come to their assistance. Why can’t that ‘someone’ be you? To sit somewhere and moan about the outcome of an election is foolish. You should have known that whatever the outcome, the same problems that existed before the election would continue to exist. Politicians don’t care about us. And you can see that whites are so damn stupid and filled with hatred that even after voting, they have no home to go back to or if they do, they don’t even have dental coverage or adequate health insurance, but that’s fine because according to those fools, ‘white supremacy’ is going to take care of ALL of their issues. Just ask those white folks down in Florida who are still reeling from Hurricane Michael. Many of them are homeless, fucked up and would still vote for Trump if only they could have gotten to a polling place because hate TRUMPS everything, including sickness, homelessness, joblessness and hunger.

So, Black folks, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and realize that if we don’t get our act together, we will never thrive. We should never look to a politician of ANY stripe to help us because since when have they ever??!!! Get real! What you need to do, you won’t do and if you continue down this path, expect despair, hopelessness and death. It need not be this way, but until we understand that looking out for one another is our only hope,  we will continue to be disappointed on ‘Election Day’ and every day thereafter.

Finally, I’ll leave you with a little poem I wrote for Election Day 2016. I titled it:

I Voted!

I voted……..in my sleep.
 Stood in line with the other sheep
as we were prodded, one by one.
Oh I voted, but I voted for none.
Yes, into that voting booth, I went,
made my mind up to some extent.
I threw my ballot on the dirty floor,
said I’d never vote for a war whore.
 And that no bigot would get my vote,
I’d rather drown in a goddamn moat.
The security guards escorted me out,
told me I was crazy, without a doubt.
 But that’s okay because I had my say
on the 6th of November; election day!
Don’t do as I did and vote in your sleep,
head out the door like good little sheep.
Cast your vote for your favorite clown,
and I’ll sit back and watch as you drown
in piles of shit that they fling your way,
because you voted on election day!

Written by,
Shelby I. Courtland

So now you can say that you voted FOR the pile of shit that those politicians will heap on your plate. Not me, never that. Not again. I learned my lesson.

 

Freedom Rider: No Protest for Black People

A must read article from Margaret Kimberley, BAR editor and senior columnist

27 Jun 2018

Donald Trump is certainly a motivator for white liberals. That group was quiescent when other presidents committed human rights abuses and war crimes, but they spring into action when Trump does something they don’t like.

But where is this level of outrage when black people are victimized by this system? Anti-black racism is the most prevalent and the most accepted of all prejudices and bigotries extant in the United States. The subjugation of black people through incarceration, police brutality, job discrimination and various forms of racial profiling are committed thousands of times every day around the country. Keeping black people literally in their physical place and preventing them from forming any political cohesion or movement building is the driving force behind law making and public policy.

All of the tactics that are part of the family separation protests can be used against the police, prosecutors, and judges who devastate black communities. Where is the online list of prosecutors whose misdeeds send innocent people to prison under draconian sentences or even to death row? Why not barricade courthouses and police precincts? The 1,000 police who kill every year in this country certainly deserve a list of shame in cyber space.

Liberal white Americans will latch onto almost any injustice that isn’t directed towards black people as a group. Non-black immigrants, LGBTQ individuals, or anyone else can have their grievances acted upon quickly. Gender-neutral restrooms appeared like magic overnight for the small transgender community while the numerous ways in which millions of black people are attacked go unaddressed.

——————————————————————————————————

Margaret Kimberley could not be more spot on!

But like she said in her article, ICE (Immigration and Custom Enforcement) offices have been blockaded,  ICE employees ‘outed’ online, presidential employees chased out of restaurants by angry ‘white’ people but why haven’t prosecutors been ‘outed’ online whose misdeeds send innocent people to prison under draconian sentences or even to death row? Why not barricade courthouses and police precincts? The 1,000 police who kill every year in this country certainly deserve a list of shame in cyber space. It is because of who they are killing; descendants of slaves. In the eyes of the ‘whites’, we are somewhere underneath a worm since why is it that every other group that gets fucked up because of them, receives their support, at the same time?

Who is at the root of the ‘Muslim ban’? Who is at the root of the ‘South and Central American immigrant family separations’? Who is at the root of ICE officials dragging screaming children from their parents who are fleeing from their homes thanks to policies put in place by puppet dictators installed by America’s CIA to incite violence, drug wars and promote sex trafficking? Who???!!! They look like you! And yet, there you ‘whites’ are, storming the Capitol building to show your solidarity with Muslims over Trump’s Muslim travel ban.

And oh how horrible! You went and got yourselves arrested. It’s not as if you’re ‘BLACK’ or anything and so, therefore, a natural born criminal, who upon getting arrested for breathing while Black, usually gets fucked up! But I am quite sure that nothing of the kind happened to you as they gently persuaded you into the back of a paddy wagon. No one was out to break your spine, as was the case with Freddie Gray, who like you, hadn’t done a goddamn thing to cause cops to break his spine. But you didn’t have to worry about that and you knew you had no worries. You’ve got ‘white privilege’ to see to it that the cops go easy on you. You were merely protesting what your own kind put into play to show that you’re nothing like them. You’ve got a heart and empathy and compassion. No, you don’t! You are just a fake-assed piece of hypocritical shit and you think you’re fooling the world that you’re worth something. You are just as worthless as those who put the laws on the books in the first damn place and those who enforce them because you are all one and the same; cut from the same cloth! You pretentious white, hypocritical shits are no different from Trump.

You are busy protesting the separation of migrant children from their parents because of a policy in force thanks to another worthless piece of dog shit that looks just like you, but at the same time, you have no problem with thousands of Black people getting shot dead in the streets, hundreds of thousands homeless thanks to gentrification, hundreds of thousands of Black children who are unwilling participants in a school-to-prison pipeline and the millions of Black men and women who quite actually are sitting behind bars for one reason; those Black people, those descendants of slaves are the shame that IS AmeriKKKa. We are to be gotten rid of as soon as possible in every way possible because we are a reminder of what this country truly stands for. We are a reminder of what you whites really are. Our presence reminds you each and every single day of the filth that you came from; the filth that is you!  We are an ‘in your face’ legacy of what you and this stolen nation represents; brutality, rape, pedophilia, molestation, whips, chains, shackles, torture, inhumanity, hate, racism, prejudice, slavery, Jim Crow, water cannons, lynchings, ‘Colored only’ signs, hatred, genocide, assimilation, a veritable cesspool of corruption, avarice, vice, greed and evil that is not even a rival for hell.

Muslims and those south of the border are welcome to your dubious help because they do not remind you of the rot you see in yourselves when you look at us. We are the reminder of the fact that you are rotten to your very core and irredeemable in every way. They don’t remind you of exactly what you are and you hate us for that. You hate us because we show the world just exactly what makes you tick; brutality, rape, pedophilia, molestation, whips, chains, shackles, torture, inhumanity, hate, racism, prejudice, slavery, Jim Crow, water cannons, lynchings, ‘Colored only’ signs, hatred, genocide, assimilation. And for that, we must die!

But know this, upon our death, you will never look any better! You are what you are and killing us won’t make you look humane, humanitarian, compassionate, kind, considerate or just; it makes you look like the diseased, depraved, parasitic filth you’ve always been and always will be. There is not a grain of good in any one of you! You’re ALL pure dead white filth, down to the very last one of you! Getting arrested doesn’t make you look any better. Displaying fake ass outrage won’t get it done! You have no options because whatever originally spawned your ass was the host of a disease against ‘humanity’ because ‘human’, you are not! Deal with it white motherfuckers! You are the spread of a disease that needs to be wiped out!

 

The Hypocrisy Of ‘White’ Vegans And Why I Am Opposed To ‘Veganism’ As Defined By Them

 

Decades ago, I never heard so much about vegans and veganism. It was only in recent years that the concept of veganism has grown. And though white vegans would have us believe that there are still too many people who eat animal flesh, the movement is growing by leaps and bounds. In fact, many companies are now producing commercials that tout their products as ‘vegan’ friendly.

Now, what I take exception to regarding ‘white’ vegans is the fact that they believe that they should be heralded as some sort of savior to the animal species of this planet. They are taking the high road in as much as they believe that they actually spearheaded the movement against eating animal products and that because they are vegans, they have somehow transcended beyond racism. For who can love animals enough not to eat them and still be a racist? We are all sentient beings in the eyes of a ‘white’ vegan. They tell themselves that lie a million times and still, vegans are just as racist as non-vegans.

In reality, white vegans are lying to themselves as they seek to ignore the fact that ‘whites’ are the reasons why billions of people are consuming animals even as they seek to forget that it was those who look like them that, as usual, have engaged in the mass killing of their so sacred sentient beings; animals. Shall we take a look back in history? Yes, lets. When The Europeans arrived in North America, bison herds thundered across this land. There are estimates that as many as 50 million bison lived until the Europeans came and slaughtered the vast majority of them. It is believed that this occurred largely to starve off the Indian population to make it even easier to steal their land. And indeed, it worked. As vegans like to refer to animals as sentient beings, so were the Indians who were killed off, but no vegans are running around screaming that raising a hue and cry over the plight of the few remaining Indians should also take precedence. Their hypocritical stance is that they are the true warriors for the animal existence on this planet. Au contraire.

You hypocritical shits and those who look like you are why the few remaining bison had to be relocated to protected parkland and that is why people can go to Yellowstone National Park and view bison today. Not to forget that it was also due to railroad expansion that the bison had to be killed off after millions of Indians had been killed off due to starvation, diseases they contracted from the white man and from the poison the white man supplied them with in the form of alcohol. But you won’t hear ‘white’ vegans talking about that. Oh no! Because they must puff out their chests and assume a swagger that is beyond hypocritical just because now that they have reduced the animals of this planet to mutated, toxin-filled specimens for consumption, it is now time to declare war against the annihilation of said toxin-filled specimens for human consumption.

Now, let us fast forward to mass food production. Who owns the slaughterhouses that kill animals for human consumption? Who owns the trucks that deliver the animals not only to slaughterhouses but also to supermarkets all across America? Yeah! Who owns them and let’s stick with America because America leads all other nations and countries on this planet in abuse of any and every being; four-legged or two-legged, makes no difference.

You ‘white’ vegans sit on your sanctimonious, holier-than-thou asses and pretend as though you have all the answers, that in fact, you are the answer when you and your kind are responsible for the desecration and murder of your so beloved four-legged ‘sentient beings’ throughout history up til present day. You want to pretend that you are different from the rest of those who are just like you when you are one and the same. You’re no better. You pretend to have some sort of awakening that makes you feel superior to the others of your kind who still eat meat. You are not the vanguards; the protectors of animals. You have just decided that now is the time to recognize that so-called humans are in fact, dying because they are eating mass produced toxic animal products and so to reduce the prescriptions in your medicine cabinets, you are now attempting to detoxify your bodies even as you would have us believe that your predilection for non-animal food means that you have a greater sense of awareness of the value of all beings on this planet. Not true. You are still racist down to your core. It is in your DNA. It is what makes you a toxin to this planet. We are ALL walking toxin factories thanks to your white ass!

Veganism; another definition of ‘white privilege’ or is it by virtue of ‘white privilege’ that you can practice veganism? Yes indeed, one day, you just decide that you’re not going to eat animal products anymore and then you are going to preach to others that they should do the same and if someone who happens to not be ‘blessed’ with white privilege and who hates whites because of their racist ass ways, then they cannot include themselves in your exalted circle of white privileged hypocritical vegan shits because they just don’t have the right pedigree. They must love your white privileged ass and if they don’t, then according to you, there is no way in hell that they can have enough compassion and empathy to be a ‘vegan’ for they must love all ‘sentient beings’ and those include racist whites. To hell with that!

You and your kind have brought disease and death to every single cultural group you have ever come into contact with and now, you want to take the high road by announcing that you refuse to eat animals. Too fucking late! The damage has already been done and it is irreversible and what’s more, you know this. You have become so demented in your obsession over not eating animals, that you ignore the fact that innocent humans are treated worse than those animals you so abhor eating even as you keep animals in your homes as pets for what home that has a ‘white’ ass in it does not have a pet of some sort?

You ignore racism and if you don’t outright ignore it, then you castigate the person who is on the receiving end of it, even as you try and subtly state that no one who can hate a group of people who have oppressed them from hell and back can maintain that they are ‘vegan’. According to you, they would embrace their racist oppressor and turn the other cheek because they must love all ‘sentient beings’, even those who oppress them because of the color of their skin, even if they are oppressed by the same type of ‘white’ shits that killed millions of bison just because they wanted  to wipe out another group of people and steal their land. Yes, I can hate because the same type of people who enslaved my ancestors are still at it today and they look like you. I can hate because racism will never endear me to those who practice it with relish! I can hate because I am not of your kind who graduated with honors from the school of barbarity, depravity, brutality, sadism and murder. Your kind is why you are now referring to yourself as a vegan. Your kind is why though you may not eat animal products, you are no better than the others who do and who look like you. It is far too late for you to wear a mantle of righteousness for not one single ‘white’ piece of filth can ever aspire to humanity; you are all pure, dead ‘white’ filth. Now, chow down on that!

The next time you drive by a supermarket, don’t forget who owns it and who supplies it with meat. They look like you. When next you read the news that hunting season is about to start, remember who loves ‘shooting’ defenseless, helpless animals with their big ole rifles. They look like you. Remember who flies over to Africa  to go ‘big game hunting’. They look like you. Remember who killed off the bison in order to starve the Indians. They look like you. Remember who corrals the animals for slaughter just as they corralled my ancestors in slave pens. They look like you.  I will continue to call out you worthless white assed motherfuckers for what you are and I don’t care what you call yourselves. None of you are any good. You’ve never been any good and what’s more, you can’t stand the truth all up in your pasty-faced, hypocritical, self-serving, ugly ass mugs. Too damn bad! The truly innocent people of this planet were living in harmony with it before you pasty-faced assholes showed up. It was you depraved pasty-faced demons who thought of yourselves as gods and who decided that instead of living as one with this planet, you would destroy it to gain money and power. And now, you’re ‘vegan’ and self-righteous? Get the fuck out of here with that blatant, bald-faced bullshit! You are much too goddamn late to pull that card out especially since it was YOUR kind that is responsible for the condition your beloved animals are in today; on land and sea.

It is your kind who tested atomic weapons in the Pacific Ocean and what the fuck do you think happened to the oceanic life? But now, not only are you ‘vegan’, you also want the simple life. Every other group WAS living the simple life until you deranged, sadistic killers arrived on the scene and fucked that up. But, you’re vegan. No, you’re nothing but a goddamn sorry ass bunch of leeches who’ve sucked the life out of this planet and now that everything is tainted by you, you want to chow down on some bok choy and trail mix and you think that by doing so, you get to  tell others that they cannot consider themselves to be ‘vegan’ if they can have hate in their hearts for racist ass whites. Hypocrite that you are, you don’t get to say a goddamn thing because you are too busy being THE problem that you’ve always been and always will be. Now, kiss my ass! It’s ‘vegan’ friendly!  

Slaughtered: Men in the mid-1870s pose with a mountain of buffalo skulls soon to be ground into fertilizer, the sad remains of an animal that once ruled the American plains.
Yes indeed, ‘whites’ cared so much about the plight of animals. Doesn’t it show?

 

Stand In Solidarity With You? HA! (A Re-Post)

 

I am going to do a complete about face and I am going to stand in solidarity with the white motherfuckers who are now fucked up and ain’t hardly liking it. I am going to stand in solidarity with them because they stood in solidarity with me.

When I lost my job because I was the last person to get hired and when the economy tanked, I was the first person to get laid off. You white motherfuckers stood in solidarity with me. You told the boss, “that ain’t hardly fair! She’s such a hard worker. If you fire her, you’ve got to fire me too. We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When my credit took a nosedive because I lost my job and couldn’t pay the rent and was homeless with my two kids, you white motherfuckers stood in solidarity with me. You spoke up and said, “those goddamn credit reports are hurting those who have lost their jobs. It ain’t hardly right and we’re standing in solidarity to protest the foulness of that shit because shit happens to good people. We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When I had to get on public assistance because I couldn’t find a job and my kids were failing in school because shelter life ain’t easy, you white motherfuckers stood in solidarity with me. You didn’t belittle me and call me a ‘freeloading, Cadillac driving welfare queen who couldn’t keep her legs closed.” You went to bat for me. You saw that I was just about broken and with your relentless reaching out on my behalf to city and state officials, I was able to pull myself up with the aid of the assistance that I had to take while trying to get back on my feet. You said, “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When the police brutally beat my teenage son, put him in a wheelchair simply because they could, you white motherfuckers stood in solidarity with me. You didn’t turn your back when you saw the beatings and heard of the outright murders that were perpetrated against other young Black men by racist ass cops. You stood in solidarity with me because you knew that shit was wrong. “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When you white motherfuckers saw that my nieces and nephews were not getting a decent education and the new catch phrase became, “the school to prison pipeline,” you weren’t okay with that. You loudly voiced your disgust at what was purposely being done to Black communities all across this country. You stood in solidarity with me because you know that shit just ain’t right. “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When you saw the incarceration statistics for young Black men caught up in the ‘for profit prison industrial complex’ over selling some dime bags of weed, you raised such a hue and cry, they let ‘em go. You stood in solidarity with me. “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When you saw the national unemployment rate inch down and yet the unemployment rate for Black people remained in the double digits, you decried the foulness of that shit. You said, “goddamn it! Crime is high in the Black neighborhoods because unemployment is so goddamn high! Something needs to be done!” You stood in solidarity with me. “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

When you saw the abject poverty in Black communities all across this country, you…uh…never mind, you’re scared to come into the ‘hood’, but I am sure that you stood in solidarity with me. “We’re standing in solidarity together!”

Now, let’s fast forward to 2008 when the economy was collapsing and people were losing their homes and the Wall Street criminals were bailed out and then we began to hear about the ‘middle class’ getting fucked up. I went to pick up the phone because you had stood in solidarity with me throughout all of my troubling times but when I tried to find a number to call in the ‘solidarity group’ that had stood beside me, there were only blank pages!

When did you stand in solidarity with me? When did you ever give a goddamn about the problems that have plagued Black communities and just why the fuck are there so many ‘Black’ communities and not just ‘communities’ if we stand in solidarity together? Surely, you live right beside me because we’ve been in this all along, haven’t we? We stood together, side by side against those who have been oppressing my ass all along. Uh…no, we haven’t stood together in solidarity because my problems were never made your problems until now and now, I’m to stand in solidarity with you? Hell if that’s so!

We’ve had our ass handed to us and then some and now you want me to stand in solidarity with you because you’re just now starting to feel the impact of some shit that’s been finally let loose on YOUR ass? Ain’t gonna happen! Over a million of our Black men are in prison. We are segregated just as we’ve always been. We’re still suffering from the effects of disenfranchisement, rampant unemployment, extreme poverty, drug addiction, racism, bigotry and hate, but now, you want some solidarity? Ha! That IS funny! You left me to make it or not on my own and that is exactly where YOU stand. Make it or get broken by it because it don’t hardly matter to me what happens to you! You’ll get from me as much ‘solidarity’ as you gave me, nada! I’ve figured out what I need to do and now it’s YOUR turn! Figure it out!

And now, we come to the latest victim of a police involved shooting, Justine Damond, who we all know was murdered by a cop who was spooked by a trash can lid hitting the ground or was he spooked by the sound of someone dropping a plate or by someone breaking wind or belching or sneezing, coughing or playing bongo drums in an upscale area of South Minneapolis?

All of a sudden, some white people are calling out Black Lives Matter and the NAACP for not coming to protest for Justine Damond. First of all, Black Lives Matter has been front and center in Minneapolis since this event went down and the NAACP has, as well. It is my opinion that neither group should stand up in protest over this police involved shooting because many whites have tried to get Black Lives Matter defined as a ‘hate group’. Apparently, stating that Black lives should matter is projecting hate towards others. Never mind the fact that the majority of police killings have directly impacted Black people for hundreds of years starting with the slave patrols. And if white America had ever stood up, en masse with us, would we still continue to see this play out in every city in every state in America in the year 2017? We know the answer to that!

Don’t sit on your pink ass now and point the finger at Black people and tell us that we should be standing in solidarity with you because of one incident that has happened to the likes of you. I feel nothing for your plight! Not a drop of sympathy do I have and there will be none. A gnat couldn’t wipe its ass on the amount of sympathy that I can drum up for you pink-assed motherfuckers. BULEEEDAT! So come on up in here and tell me that we are all in this shit together and like I always say, “I will be more than happy to mop the cyber floor with your pink ass!”

Black people have been saying for decades that police brutality is rampant; running unchecked in this hellhole and is even encouraged and we were paid no mind by the likes of you pink-assed motherfuckers who basically told us to “Fuck off!” And so now, I am telling you to do the same! “Fuck off!” Your ‘plight’ don’t hardly concern me. And you hypocritical shits have the nerve to now parade around with signs stating, “White People: Are You Awake Now?” Yeah!, You’re awake now, but only because Miss Upscale Neighborhood ‘pink-assed’ Goldilocks got herself shot to death by some Somali-American cop who was startled by her farting or belching near them. But so many Black men, women and children have been murdered by cops and you’ve not called for the heads of police departments on a platter, but now that Miss Australian Goldilocks has been murdered by cop, it is now time to fire the Minneapolis police chief, bring in a Black cop, who by the way, has experienced racism in the very department that he will now oversee, to the point whereas he had to file a lawsuit and received compensation. So that right there tells us just how far he will be allowed to go in attempting to rein in trigger happy cops or cops who are ‘spooked’ into killing people because of loud noises nearby. Seriously?!!!

We must all get out the purple crepe and black armbands and violins and take to the streets to protest over an ‘upper class immigrant from Australia getting herself murdered by those thugs in blue uniforms? Yeah! Right! Wait for me to don my marching shoes and dust off my lame ass, fifty year-old protest sign and git ta stepping and you will find yourselves turning just as blue as a cop’s uniform. Yeah! I’m going to git ta marching and shouting, “No justice! No peace!” for this here ‘white’ woman who chose to come on over here to America and live the good life until she got what millions of Black people have been getting for hundreds of years in AmeriKKKa! I am not even marching for Black people anymore and I’m damn sure as hell not marching for Miss Goldilocks. She’s got the Australian government fighting for justice for her. She’s got her Australian family to fight for justice for her and she’s got all the upper crust white folks in an uproar storming City Hall fighting for justice for her. But where were they at when Jamar Clark was shot dead by cops? Where were they when Philando Castile was shot dead by cop? They were certainly not storming the mayor’s office demanding that she resign just as she demanded the resignation of her police chief and received it, post haste.

You pink-assed motherfuckers will never understand that what comes around, goes around. It’s now come around to you. Deal with it or not! I don’t hardly fucking care! But you will not blame us or demand that we Black folks stand in solidarity with you simply because we have been protesting this very same shit for hundreds of years, ON OUR OWN, while you hypocrites simply sat back and watched it all go down knowing all the while that this vile shit was put in to play by those who are your own kin folks. Fuck you AND yours!

I Am Not A Shell Of A Human Lacking Humanity!

Strong hands rest on gently rounded hips,
smooth dark skin and thick, full lips.
Tightly curled hair, my crowning glory;
a picture perfect, wordless story.

Sculpted features, carved by time,
upon my face, not one wrinkle or line.
Legs that stand firm to bear my weight,
and a Teflon coating that repels all hate.

Torn from Africa and brought to these shores,
compared and found lacking to pale-skinned whores.
Desire in the eyes of sickly white men,
with fetid breath and reeking of gin.

Sent to the fields and whipped every day,
trying to understand why I’m treated this way.
No hope of returning to the home that I loved.
I’m poked and prodded, pushed and shoved.

Stripped and sold and draped in chains,
told that I’m an animal and that I have no brains.
Am I a beast of burden or the white man’s slave?
To him, I am both until I’m lowered in my grave.

He will have to whip me, both day and night.
And still he’ll not crush me nor dim my light.
It glows from within and it will not die.
My bloodline will continue to multiply.

I will not worship his god; a deity of hate,
nor confine my soul to the white man’s fate.
That is not who I am and never will be,
I am not a shell of a human lacking humanity.

I absolutely refuse to bow down and worship the white man’s god! How can I worship that which produced filth that would enslave my ancestors and me, commit unspeakable atrocities against us and then have the unmitigated gall to then turn around and head inside a church to bow down and worship a so-called, god ‘of love’?You cannot have it both ways. Love cannot come from hate and whatever hatred is praying to, it is not a ‘god’ of love! You are being played! Stop playing the fool!

The ‘white’ man’s god is not a god of ‘love’ if it produced him, he who is filled with nothing but hate! Negro people, where is your capacity for critical thinking? How can you emulate the ‘white’ man’s ways when you know it doesn’t make any sense to follow him over the cliff? How can you know what he has done to your ancestors and is also doing to you and yet, you take up his habits, his beliefs, his justifications for why he does what he does and worship the same false idols? Are you insane? Because that would seem to be the case from where I sit. You dutifully bow your heads at the table and pray to a ‘god’ that produced hate, bigotry, racism, prejudice and a false sense of fake assed superiority designed to keep you in your place when that filth that has you believing that you are inferior is rotten to the core?

And yet, you still believe that evil personified is going to save you if only you will stand in line and vote for that which has been trying Its damned best to wipe you out of existence? Go ahead and continue playing the stooge for something that is less than an animal and is planning your genocide at all times!

This Holiday Is A Travesty!

They say your life had meaning.
You even played the game their way.
And still they had you killed.
But they claim to honor you today.

So toss and turn in your grave,
for how can you sleep peacefully
when hate did strike you down;
hatred drenched in white supremacy?

There is no such thing as freedom,
just ask the men and women behind bars.
This holiday is a travesty,
given the white man’s thirst for wars.
