Good kids and Bad kids alike get killed these days
"We tend to want to classify — the bad families and the good families, the violent kids and the victims…It's much more complex than that, but our discomfort leads us into overly simplistic thinking,..We withdraw rather than confront the complexities." - Nancy Erbe
Dear friends,
On the heels of the murder of Trayvon Martin, I thought of an article that I posted almost two years ago, regarding the notion of teenage homicides - its victims and suspects. Moreover, the idea that an African American, male or female, poses a threat, when wearing a "hoodie" suggests that White Supremacy, euphemistically-called racism has so rendered us to be less than human that we kill our own as senselessly as George Zimmerman did Trayvon - as if he were killing an insect.
Consequently, with all of the community support, nationwide, for the Martins at this time, let us hope to embrace this new found Black Love. That means that our "hip-hop" artists will have to stop using the word "niggah" in their discourse, for example, in order to stop showing such a lack of respect for themselves and hatred for themselves that is so easily acceptable to both Jewish and Italian recording moguls.
In any case, on the link below is a thoughtful story by Sandy Banks of the Los Angeles Times that shows one of the ways that the Crime Industry devastates our communities. However, because of our own inadequacies, as Sandy points out, we may have a distorted vision about both the victims and perpetrators of crime.
Cheers!

Dr. Clarke on origin of "Jews"
"The same thing goes for both Jewish and non-Jewish US ruling corporations, for example, who under the guise of being "Americans", oppress and exploit people here and abroad daily, in the name of everyday American citizens."
Dear friends,
One f the biggest contradictions going on in Western media is: If you say anything about any Jew, then you are subjected to a kind of moral terrorism, being called "anti-Semitic". But one must ask "Are Jews the only Semites, much less the majority of Semites?"
Still, we have to be careful about pointing fingers at Jewish exploiters and oppressors, since it is only the ruling class of Jews, not the everyday person who identifies himself or herself as a Jew that is guilty of constant atrocities towards humanity. The same thing goes for both Jewish and non-Jewish US ruling corporations, for example, who under the guise of being "Americans", oppress and exploit people here and abroad daily, in the name of everyday American citizens.
Nevertheless, on the link below, the now late great Dr. John Henrik Clarke provides us with some history about Jewish heritage.
