Edud's Views and Others

I both "get" and understand why you WANT and NEED to believe that. But FACTS and TRUTH stand ALONE and does not equal demonization. The fact that you have white friends and family members does NOT change the FACT that white supremacy exists and a "system" of white supremacy governs the existance of people of color, especailly Blacks. As you know, Thomas Jefferson held slaves, yet loved Black women. Sen. Storm Thurman traveled the country with anti Black messages WHILE sleeping with, and having a child by, a Black woman. White supremacist "game" is that there are ONLY a "few" racist and the majority are "good" whites. NOT!!! And that DEFIES logic. If there were only a "few" supremacist/racists and the majority were all "good", the supremacist/racist "system" couldNOT stand. Instead the OPPOSET is TRUE(To varying degrees). There are ONLY a few whites who believe in GENUINE 100% equality and Black empowerment. Everything else is "game" and ILLUSION. That's WHY 400 years LATER, things are STILL the SAME. White supremacy just kept up with the times. Remember, it was once ok to whip/beat your children in order to CONTROL them. NOW, you must come up with other means to achieve the SAME thing--CONTROL.

Whites don't care about Black empowerment but they "claim" they do. Whites are ALL about their survival on the planet and they are willing to say or do ANYTHING to achieve that. You are correct that Blacks need to feel a sense of responsibility for each other in a world that cares LESS about them. However, that's easier said than done. If it were that easy, we would have done so 400 years ago. The SAME forces at play then CONTINUES today. The "Black responsibility" game is derived from white supremacist to shift blame to Blacks for THEIR behavior. We tried "Black responsibility" when we founded Rosewood, a sucessful Black owned town in Fla. We tried it in Tulsa, Ok, we tried it with "Black wall street", etc. So, what happened when we took "responsibility"??? WHITES mamed, killed, and destroyed both people and property. So the "good innocent" white man sitting innocently by while "lazy Blacks shun responsibility" GAME don't cut it when placed beside FACTS. With our INDOCTRINATION it is IMPOSSIBLE to "just" stick together, or "just" act responsible. If we begain with Black children born TODAY, and indoctrinate them with TRUTH from the womb it would STILL take generations to rebuild "unity" among oursleves as we have NOT had it in over 400 years( unity has NEVER been destroyed with other groups so we can't be compared to others). White supremacy MUST be eradicated across the globe before MEANINGFUL peace and unity can be achieved.

There SHOULD be NO suprise. Whites are ALL the SAME when it comes to an INHERENT belief in superiority over people of color, especailly Blacks. There are two types of INDOCTRINATION occuring FROM the WOMB. One INDOCTRINATED with SUPERIORITY and the other indoctrinated with INFERIORITY. Black/white children examined with the infamous Doll experiments SHOW indoctrination STARTS early(at birth).
While we like to beleive things have "changed", they have NOT. White supremacy/racism continues as before, it simply kept up with the times.

While "some" young whites are bucking this "mindset", most are NOT. When we peel back the onion, we see that whites operate on the principle of expediency(What is BEST/advantagous for THEM). Their REAL intent is often "cloaked" So well we don't catch it until it's too late. The TRUTH of the matter is, MOST young Black/white interaction is based on white s3xual desires. Are these young whites taking young Blacks into the corporate world with them? Have these young whites opened the prison doors? Are these young whites out fighting gang and gun violence in the Black community? Black unemployment is the highest in the country. Are young whites hiring Blacks? These SAME young whites are fighting in my area to resegregate the schools. We are NOT fooled by the "few" racist whites game when we KNOW we exist in a "system" of white supremacy.

Psychology isn't my field but one doesn't have to be an expert in it to know that the stigma against suicide in the black community is compounded by the fact that asking for help, especially with emotional issues, is considered somewhat 'unmanly' in this society. In fact we know that in most societies men are expected to be physically and emotionally strong and able to handle any problem that life throws at them. Men put these constraints on themselves as part of their masculine self-image, and for a man to admit that he is in the kind of terrible emotional pain that leads to suicide is quite a challenge to that. Sadness is considered to be 'weak', and 'feminine', and so is talking about one's emotions.

I love WHEN and HOW you teach TRUTH!!! Excellent post!!! In addition, let me add that another problem to Blacks seeking psychological help is the fact that their are FEW Black psychologist, and even FEWER who reveal TRUTH. White psychologists and mental health workers are PART of the supremacist "system" and CANNOT reveal TRUTH. After listening to Black "problems"(The ROOT causes are white supremacy and supremacist "systems"), their ONLY answer is the "pull yourself up" by the boot strap "game" which we KNOW is the typical "game" of white supremacist/racists. So the cycle continues until the person realizes it's "game" and choose to commit suicide. We are SEEING an increasing number of Blacks doing mass shootings and hoping to be killed by the police(A form of suicide). These tend to be Blacks who attempted to BELIEVE in the "system"(The american "dream")but had to conclude it is ALL an ILLUSION(Chris Doner, Alexis(the navy yard shooter), even the elder DC snipper(army man), and others). A lot of the young gang members shooting and killing each other ARE commiting a form of suicide. I recall Dr. Francis Cress Wilsing(A phychiatrist)stating that in order for her to help "her people" mentally, she HAD to understand the ROOT of their problem--racism/white supremacy. We could alleiveate SOME of mental problems/confusions IF we INDOCTRINATED our children with TRUTH from the womb.

Thank you so much, edud! I'm honored to receive such a great compliment from you, who has such a deep understanding and grasp on the nature of the problem we're facing. It is quite true that black people find little help from psychologists and psychiatrists because, as you and I know, everything in this system is set up to benefit whites and is tailored to their needs, their likes, their desires, and their outlook on EVERYTHING. The brother who did that latest mass shooting at the Navy yard had already been in contact with army doctors and police in which he specifically told them he was 'hearing voices', and was also having his sleep patterns disturbed by 'microwaves', but apparently, no one connected the dots, or didn't TRY TO.
However, we also have to consider the fact that many black people (though not all), because of white supremacist conditioning, are extremely reluctant to seek help for emotional or mental problems. Even if you try to bring up the subject the first thing many people will practically YELL at you is, "I ain't crazy!" Needless to say, this attitude is not helping the situation.
I recently read a great blog post by someone who did a brilliant analysis of "The Matrix", and compared our situation to the one in the movie. The truth in this comparison was as clear as day. This IS like living in a world where a false reality has been pulled over our eyes in order to blot out the horrible truth. Maybe the brothers who have acted in such destructive ways saw that and simply could not handle it any longer.

All TRUE!!! I had a family member who sought "help"(A goverment employee who BELIEVED in the white "system" 100%)from a pyscologist. When it was revealed to the family, most reacted the way you discribed. Most stated, "that's her, I don't NEED any help".
As to the "Matrix" comparison it's TRUE as far as existing in a FALSE reality. If we sit back and observe(Any public place; mall, park, etc)it is CLEAR that Blacks operate in a "robotic" fashion, even our body movements. It's like our "brain computer"(Dr. Welsings term)is attempting to connect the dots on HOW to ACT. Kind of like living with someone who dosen't want us there. We walk on egg shells BECAUSE we DON'T know WHAT to DO or say. And if you are not in that "robotic" state, it SHOWS and both whites and Blacks are STUNNED and don't know how to interact with you.
Keep teaching TRUTH in a world FULL of LIES. Especailly to the "lost", even if they don't want to hear it!!!

[BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLER] Good and Black [OPINION] Jamilah Lemieux says that policing Black behavior won't end racism, nor will it uplift our people
Who taught you to hate yourself?”
Malcolm X’s famous query has been on my mind lately. It was there when President and First Lady Obama took brand new HBCU alumni and their families to task on Morehouse and Bowie State’s graduation days. It was there when Don Lemon posed Boy Scout-esque steps that we—we—could take to end racism. I thought of those words when our beloved POTUS came for us again in his comments during the celebration of the anniversary on the March on Washington. And when Sheryl Underwood sat beneath a shiny wig and before a largely White audience and mocked nappy Black hair. And again yesterday, as the image of a crying Black girl circulated the net after her Black-led school punished her for having Black girl hair.
I don’t think that any of these people would tell you that they hate Black people or themselves or things that are associated with blackness. But the uncomfortable thread running all through these narratives is the suggestion that we have to be good to be good enough. To be respected, to be human, to be validated in the eyes of White folk.
Because, you know, this is what really matters. In fact, I often feel like some of us are walking around wearing invisible W.W.W.F.D. bracelets around their wrists in hopes of somehow policing themselves into validity.
What would White folks do? And what can we do to get them to tell us we’re okay? Who do we have to be to gain their respect? If we play nice, will you finally treat us that way?

As an admirer of Dr. Neely Fuller, Dr. Francis Cress Welsing(whom I admire)relates the following TRUTH:"UNTIL you UNDERSTAND white supremacy, EVERYTHING you THINK you KNOW will only CONFUSE you". MOST of us are NOT BAD or STUPID people, we just DON'T understand white supremacy. We "get" racism BECAUSE we SEE and FEEL it daily. But the ROOT cause of racism(white supremacy)is UNKNOWN to most. That's WHY we are all over the place on racial topics. As you CORRECTLY pointed out, the JOB of whites IS to confuse, blame, lie, etc in order to SHIELD the TRUTH about themselves.
