TURN IT AROUND

What if Trayvon Martin had a gun and shot Zimmerman to death in self-defense?  Would the “Stand Your Ground” rule be interpreted in his favor as it was in Zimmerman’s?  How wound the trial have turned out?

American history has already answered these questions for us.

JUSTICE ISN'T BLIND. IT IS PREJUDICE



I told ya'll that America will never convict a non-black for murdering a black boy in Florida. As I wrote in one of my earlier online newsletters, "It is open season on black men in America." It has been so for a very long time. I hope we heard the wake up call and prepare to defend ourselves, especially our young men. We also have a right to "Stand our Ground" if we feel threatened and we have a right to use deadly force in self-defense. If that's the game they want to play then let's learn the rules and play. They have plainly declared war on young African American men and trivialized and minimized the worth of our lives and the lives of our children. While some will not like what I have written, I don't care. If America "in-justice system" is bold enough to shove its injustice in our faces, somebody should be courageous enough to shove the truth back in theirs. What's good for the goose...

Remember Michael Vick. My Word! A dog gets more justice in America than a black man. 

Keeping It Real!



THE VERDICT / NO JUSTICE. NO PEACE.


A Non- African American Jury, Judge and Prosecutor Tried A Case Where A Non-African American Man Gunned Down and Murdered A Teenage African American Boy.

WHAT DID YOU THINK THE VERDICT WAS GOING TO BE?! GUILTY?  I DON’T THINK SO.

[I encourage you to share all of my posts about the continual and horrendous injustices perpetrated upon African Americans by the “in-Justice System” in America.  --- My voice is not restrained by political or monetary considerations.  I only wish to Keep It Real.]
------------------------------------------------------
I was reading some comments from a friend’s page and there was a cold heartless suggestions that if “Trayvon Martin had not circled back and attacked Zimmerman this wouldn't have happened.”  This statement assumes that Zimmerman’s version of events is true.   And also implies justification for murdering Trayvon.

Then there were some African Americans who agreed with the verdict -- seemingly they were trying to garner favor and acceptance from those who would at onetime enslave them, castrate them, rape their women, hang and burn them.  These confused and sad souls are obviously not aware of or not concerned with the plight of the African American male.  They don’t realize that non-blacks have been killing black men with impunity for centuries.
-----------------------------------------------------------
We all know that if a black man in America had shot and killed a white boy in the same manner in which Zimmerman gunned down Trayvon Martin, the jury selection, the prosecution’s approach and the outcome of the trial would be a lot different.

However, we should never expect those who were privileged enough to enjoy generation after generation after generation of continual financial, social, civil and political freedoms, favoritism and privilege to understand or empathize with the holocaust and judicial disparity that we have suffered and continue to suffer in America.

“Jim Crow Ain't Dead”


“Jim Crow Ain't Dead”


The Truth Has A Way of Coming Out Sooner or Later. 

I think most informed folks know the Truth.  There is over 200 years of evidence to substantiate the fears of the disenfranchised.  We are justifiably fearful and distrusting of the clandestine motives of those who are opposed to contributing their fair share to alleviate poverty and the deficit while blaming us for our own disenfranchisement and impoverished condition.

They have made their motives very clear.  Check the record.  They stated at the onset that their number one objective was to get President Obama out of office - not to end the war in Iraq and Afghanistan or pass a new national health care plan or raise minimum wages or create good paying jobs for middle class families or punish those responsible for 911. 

No!  Their objective is clear and precise.  And we have over 200 years of horrific social injustice, judicial disparity and unresolved racially motivated deaths and acts of terrorism to show that they are serious. And to insure that their plans work, they have enacted a series of obviously racially motivated voting polices to prohibit what they believe to have been an anomaly - the election of a Black Man to the Presidency of the United States of America. 

It is unspoken but has long been believed by a significant number of Americans that the office of the President of the United States of America was reserved for white males only.

I am only saying what everyone knows is true but don’t have the guts to say.

We cannot be unified as a nation until we are first unified as human beings with inalienable human rights, social, financial and educational equality and a mutual respect for each other. 

I have always said that before we can move forward, we need to address the ills of the past, expose the evils of racism and bigotry to the light of truth, make restitution and apologies, restore what was taken or destroyed i.e. Repent!  Without genuine repentance there can never be genuine unity.

History shows that America has sought to make reparations to every nation and people that it ever bombed or invaded.  It has rebuilt cities and nations but it has failed to make adequate reparations to those of its own soil, whose, forefathers, were denied humanity, justice, equality and dignity along with being denied the right to provide, protect, guide direct, nurture, care, educate and shelter their families. These crimes against nature and humanity have generational ramifications and consequences that are just now being realized in our society. 

They preach about taking responsibility and being accountable but when the spotlight is on them, they want to forget the past and cloud the issues with menial concerns instead of looking at the true cause of the problem and taking responsibility of the criminal and inhuman treatment of some of its citizens.

I could say more about this but what is the use?  I suspect that one of their pawns will eventually twist this into something inappropriate and ugly.  And that is their right.  Why should they change now?  Many have never been able to face or hear the truth about themselves and/or some of their foreparents or how some of their wealth was built upon the backs and lives of slaves or what they counted as three fifth of a human being.  I know that this assessment doesn't apply to everyone.  However, since the elements of racism have doubled their efforts to maintain its strangle hold on American culture and political power, it is only fitting that we quadruple our efforts at awareness. 

Every since President Obama was elected to the Office of Presidency, more degrading racial epithets have been used advertised, publicized, posted, broadcasted and promoted by racial terrorists since the Civil Rights movement of the 60’s.

History has a way of repeating itself and we are seeing it repeat right now.  Jim Crow isn't dead it just changed its name to “Voter I.D.   The Grand Wizard isn’t dead.  He just exchanged his robe for a tailored suit.

Beware!

You can still tell a tree by the fruit it bears.
