REMINDER Of the
SLAVE TRADE

dungeons and thrown in the filthy holes of slave ships. The ones that died during the passage across the Atlantic, were thrown to the sharks and those that survived, were presented like animals for sale on auction blocks in the Colonies. These kidnapped Africans were taken to a land as less than human, classified & counted as property in chains and had to work from sun up to sun down for at least 10 generations, held as captives on plantations with 0 wages, forced to live in more squalor and even more filth than Jaycee Lee Dugard and her 2 children. A great many of the kidnapped African women and men were raped, sodomized and murdered. Laws were passed to keep the kidnapped Africans illiterate. When the women had children, the children were considered the Masters property and they were worked , raped and sodomized as well. Most Africans are usually quiet

about the degradation, but stories have always surfaced that tell of how people similar to Phillip Garrido and his wife Nancy did our people wrong. This is not the time nor the place to bring out those details, but it is the time for us to see some of the similarities of what Phillip Garrido & his wife Nancy, supposedly Christians, did to Jaycee Lee Dugard and daughters, as compared to what slave masters like Thomas Jefferson and thousands more like him, did to millions of kidnapped Africans. Let this travesty and trauma serve as a reminder that Reparations must stay on the table. White people feel that Jaycee Lee Dugard and her children should be compensated for their trauma, their pain and their suffering, but they still want to ignore and not make just compensation for what was done to kidnapped Africans and what kidnapped Africans did to help make the United States of America the global power it is today. With laws and a lack of humanity to justify our treatment, we suffered through 400 plus years of no wages, degradation and brutally and endured the prolonged insanity of racial hatred directed towards us. This struggle continues to this day and to this time and space that we all live in. Without Reparations, we are finding that we were and are still being treated as less than human, by a people that do not understand what it means to be human!

(OUR STORY)
Maybe while reading
this Gospel, somebody might get up some nerve and want the status quo to change. No one person can do it alone. If you cant rally and get people to move for their own salvation, maybe you can muster up the courage to get people to not be afraid to open their mouths. If you think all you have to do to get justice is vote, you havent done nothing

weve suppose to build it up and work with it, whether weve suppose to hold it in one hand and act like we love it or destroy it. We havent made up our minds. And the failure to answer that one simple question compels confusion in the neighborhood. Its the confusion that is holding us back. The inability to affirm what are we really gonna be. What are we really trying to do? youre not going to have any real power in this country, because the power is in the hands of the people who are never elected. The owners of property, the owners of wealth, the controllers of corporations and the controllers of major institutions, who survive and continue to exist as Presidents move in and out of office, they are the permanent government. Essentially the government that you elect is the government that they use to do their bidding.
THE JOURNEY
The Gospel According To John Hope Franklin We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.
BLACK FUTURIST
The Gospel According To Steve Cokely We dont have a preferred world. Thats why we dont have any Black futurist. We dont have anybody who prefers anything for us or deliberates a preferred Black world. There is no future Black. There is no future thinking. No future plans. No future focus. No desire to be anything more than just a little better than what we were, which is insufficient to make it in changing times. We could kick back and it would be all right, if the other side wasnt kicking ass like it is!
A FREE MARKET
The Gospel According To Dr. Amos Wilson There is no such thing as a Free market or an Open Market. Thats stuff that Black people believe. And they are the only people who believe it. A truly free Market wouldnt allow any racial discrimination what so ever. The minute you get any discrimination based on anything other than the fact that you have something to sell or something to buy, youre not in a free market. Black people have never been in a free market. FLIP THE SCRIPT BELIEF SYSTEM The Gospel According To Dr. Ray Hagins When you have knowledge you dont need faith. Faith is belief in unverified thought. And what the religious program has taught us is that without faith it is impossible to believe in God. The religious program has flipped the script on us and made faith more valuable than knowledge. The more mystical something sounds, the more we get into it. The more it does not make sense, the more we like it.
BANKING CRISIS
The Gospel According To President Luiz Inacio Lula Da Silva The financial crisis was caused by "White people with blue eyes". "This is a crisis that was caused by people, White with blue eyes. And before the crisis they looked as if they knew everything about economics.

TRUE HEROISM

LEADERSHIP
The Gospel According To Arthur Ashe We Blacks look for leadership in men and women of such youth and inexperience, as well as poverty of education and character, that it is no wonder that we sometimes seem rudderless. . . . We see basketball players and pop singers as possible role models.

same, unless you surround yourself with ignorance. It may not be time to get rid of the N word just yet. It would only take a second or 2 to adjust your memory! between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago. Before then, there were no blue eyes. Conscious Black people already knew this, but only recently have White scientist made it available to the general Black, White or whatever public would get it between their ears.

and make sure that Black people fail economically. If corporations control it, it aint free Boo! expect anything less from ourselves?
If Negroes dont include Black youth in their economic and political schemes, Black youth will continue to form their own group activities, oftentimes misnomered as street gangs. Could these groups be a matter of survival?

Hysterectomy (pronounced his ter-rek-ter-me) - a medical operation to remove part or a womans entire womb. Its the European version of female mutilation. Europeans have two main ways to perform a hysterectomy. The most common way is to remove the uterus through a cut in the lower abdomen, the second, less common, way is to remove the uterus only through a cut in the top of the vagina, and the top of vagina is then stitched. Each operation lasts between one to two hours and is performed, in hospital, under a general anesthetic.

COMMANDMENTS
Anonymous submission (As Given By The United States of America) 1. You shall have no other forms of government before me. 2. You shall not make for yourself an independent and self-sufficient government, for I am a jealous bureaucracy and will punish the Indian children for the sins of their fathers to the seventh generation of those who hate me. 3. You shall not misuse my name or my symbols, for I will impale you on my flagpole. 4. Remember the first of each month by keeping it holy. The rest of the month you shall go hungry, but the first day of each month is a tribute to me, and you shall receive welfare checks and commodity food in exchange for your continued dependence. 5. Honor your Indian father and Indian mother because I have stripped them of their land, language, and hearts, and they need your compassion, which is a commodity I do not supply. 6. You shall not murder, but I will bring FBI and CIA agents to your reservations and into your homes, and the most intelligent, vocal, and angriest members of your tribes will vanish quietly. 7. You shall not commit adultery, but I will impregnate your women with illegitimate dreams.
