Paula Deen - the prom queen of White Supremacy









Dear friends,

The  recent mainstream media coverage of Paula Deen's use of the so-called N-word is a red herring Only a year ago (2012), in a taped interview, she spoke regretfully about how the Civil War ruined the lives of so many who lost their "workers" as a result of the Union's victory ending chattel slavery. Huh? Please check out the very short video o the link below.

Liberation!

Brief video of Spike Lee on Tyler Perry





"I can't understand why Spike Lee criticizes Tyler Perry, since he deliberately boycotted M-cubed (Million Man March), because some of his Jewish "friends" told him not to attend, due to the fact that it was convened by Minister Louis Farrakhan. Then Spike turned around with some of his aforementioned Jewish friends and made an insulting film called "Get On The Bus","






Dear friends,

I can't understand why Spike Lee criticizes Tyler Perry, since he deliberately boycotted M-cubed (Million Man March), because some of his Jewish "friends" told him not to attend, due to the fact that it was convened by Minister Louis Farrakhan. Then Spike turned around with some of his aforementioned Jewish friends and made an insulting film called "Get On The Bus", allegedly, about the historic event. 


Worse yet, the story began with a Black man forcing his teenage son to board a bus to go to M-cubed. Huh?. That was an outright LIE, Spike Lee! I lost all respect for him, for doing that! Cheers!

Dear Friends,

Yes!!!...Yes!!!...Yes!!! He murdered our brother Khaddafy. He's re-militarized Africa through AFRICOM. He kills children with drone attacks!!!

Moreover, in the midst of so many cowardly both African and African American people, it is refreshing to know that there are some of us worldwide, still, who refuse to continue supporting the abominable behavior of such a coward, as is Barack Obama. Please check out the link below.

One Love!

Re-Visiting Tid-bits of current US/AFGHANISTAN relations - Big Business

"Inspired by major success stories, Ford, 3M, and Boeing are examining business opportunities in Afghanistan..."

From the Embassy of Afghanistan, in Washington, DC
More than 70 American companies have registered in Afghanistan since 2003, representing $75 million in potential investment, and more than 15 foreign and domestic banks have opened their doors in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan’s national income per capita has doubled since 2001, reaching approximately $356. Over 100,000 Afghans have been able to start small businesses thanks to micro-credit loans; 76% of these loans were given to women. Afghanistan was selected as the 2005 US Trade and Development Agency “Country of the Year,” while the World Bank ranked the ease of starting a new business in Afghanistan 16th in the world and lists Afghanistan as the 2006 top performer on business entry.

Since 2001, more than 55,000 businesses have been registered, allowing Afghans to dream of a better future for their children for the first time in 30 years. Inspired by major success stories, Ford, 3M, and Boeing are examining business opportunities in Afghanistan, and Coca-Cola has opened a $25 million bottling plant in Kabul, which employs approximately 500 Afghans.
***************************************
Dear friends,

There's a little more, on the link below. The Afghans do not need "oil", in order to make this "war" profitable. Does El Presidente have power over the US multinational business marauders, much less the military/industrial complex?

Meanwhile, thousands of US soldiers have died and thousands more have been injured, with the understanding that they were defending some great ideal or something, while the US government, sponsored by big business, along with its corporate-controlled mainstream media now says that it (said government) wants the Taliban to be included in talks regarding the future of Afghanistan, Huh? Please remember that after 54, 000 US soldiers died in Vietnam, the US has trade dealings with the Vietnamese today.

Dr. Chika Ezeanya talks about US involvement in Africa under Obama

"Africans of the World must unite!!!" -
Dr. Kwame Nkrumah

 (originally posted 10/29/11)
Dear friends,

On the link below is a piece from one of Nigeria's premier journalists, male or female. Moreover, if we look at recent affairs going on throughout Africa, including the murder of Khaddafy that was brought about, so that the United States government and its multinational corporate bosses could install a puppet-leader in oil-rich Libya, we will see that the United States of America, now under the direction of the Obama administration, as it did under the Bush administration, continues to rape the Motherland.

A Brief Note About Women's Suffrage in the 19 Century

Dear friends,


Historically, woman suffragettes were usually abolitionists first. One such person who began as an abolitionist and later became a renowned speaker for women's rights was Susan B. Anthony. Yet, Anthony seemed to have questionable qualities regarding her feelings about human liberation. You see, suffragettes like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were, in fact, vigorously opposed to Lincoln's version of the Emancipation Proclamation, because it would eventually lead to African American men - and no women of any group - having the right to vote. Even worse, much of her public life, at least at one point, was financed by a man, George Francis Train, a white supremacist ideologue and spokesman.

Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton had responded to what they considered to be a Republican "betrayal" by agreeing to share the lecture platform with a flamboyant Democrat, George Francis Train. An effective, if eccentric, speaker, Train scandalized abolitionists and suffragists alike by his frequent recourse to racial slurs and by his advocacy of woman suffrage as an alternative to Black suffrage. Despite mounting pressure from their fellow reformers, Anthony and Stanton refused to dissociate themselves with Train, the only man willing to provide them with consistent strategic and financial support. He not only took it upon himself to pay the two women's expenses when funds ran low, but also offered to bankroll Anthony's dream of a pro-suffrage journal in exchange for their continued presence on his return lecture tour to the East. In what seems like an obvious victory of expediency over principle, both women accepted the offer, insisting on their 'right to accept proffered aid without looking behind it for the motive.' It was not the last time they would have to engage in such a defense - (please refer to The Isabella Beecher Hooker Project, edited by Anne Throne Margolis)
