If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller

We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani

Unity Consciousness #55

In addition to what people are already doing, we must attack one pillar of the foundation of this global system of sickness.

This is accomplished by reducing spending to the bare minimum. All holidays and other days the system promotes should be boycotted. This is a long-term, several year commitment, just like the bus boycott Mother Rosa Parks helped spark. Read about what they did to implement and carry out the boycott. The boycott was also economic in nature.

In addition, we must support our own businesses that have what we need and start businesses where there is a need.

We must implement those things put forth in A Good Offense.

Hitting Them Where They Feel Pain The Most

1. Focus on boycotting national businesses that depend on our money the most. Boycott means stop spending. It does not mean protest or picket. This time can be used studying.

2. Local groups of activists and community members can target certain local businesses.

3. Individuals can review where money is spent and reduce or reroute those monies.

If we keep spending money the same way, we will be counterproductive in dismantling the system.
Spend our money in places where our faces aren't seen as disgraces.
