Justice system – Ensuring detainment and normalizing of mass
slavery
Educational system – Erasure of history, of self-value of self-worth.
Indoctrination, introduction to militarization, behavior modification: how to
be and act civilized like good white folks.
Religion – reinforcement of behaviour modification, mental and
emotional slavery, pacify any means of rebellion thru indoctrination,
subjugation. Insubordination = eternal damnation but obedience = eternal life.
Militarization – Money = More Power. Power is Safety,
freedom, and Love therefore more wars equals increased freedoms
Media and popular culture – demonizing black: physical
traits, black love. Appropriation and rebranding of black music, food and
clothing.
What I was taught:
Black men are thieves, liars, fornicators, family deserters,
violent thugs, who’s only value is in his ability to labour. Once naturalized
and tamed his agility and strength can be capitalize upon.
Black women are promiscuous, reproduce wildly, uncontrolled,
loud, the source of problem, they must be controlled, sterilized and made to
watch their off springs suffer, be enslaved, and executed. Their wombs are
cursed with the diseases of blackness, they produce only social plagues.
What I did:
Maintained a socially upstanding life, as a leader at school,
in the military, and at church; as an educational over achiever. As an only child failure was never an option
and I met and exceeded all expectations. Marrying at 21 to the 1st white*
man who professed love.
How I continue to unlearn:
Motherhood, failure, depression, suicide, cycle of self-destructive
behaviours, truth, rebellion, love, community, organizing, constant life exfoliation
and re-growth.
Practicing Black love as a Black person is truly a militant and revolutionary act.
