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

Sure Signs, Symptoms, Causes & Effects Of Mental Illness, Part 7
Unity Consciousness #257

.

A sure sign, symptom, cause and effect of mental illness is thinking the society you live in is not largely infected with slave owner/slave mentalities.*

Past Mental Illness Still Lingers On

Like all things, past mental illness is confirmed by behavior. It is obvious. Past mental illness of slave owners and slaves, has been passed on from generation to generation into the present.

1. If this was not true, slave owner/slave mentalities would not exist in the present, in the present behaviors of people.

2. If past mental illness was not being fed, sustained, taught and preached, the notion of Supremacy, in many forms, would die off, along with other lower self discriminations.


These behaviors are present in the Constitution, the laws, the traditions, the practices, the institutions, the things considered normal, the ways people go about relating and so on.

The past has not gone anywhere and neither has past mental illness. The past is ongoing and so is mental illness.

Without an understanding of the past, mental bearings and orientation are thrown off. Therefore mental balance is thrown off. Therefore mental instability exists. Therefore mental illness exists.

* This is another way and example to express what has already been explained in Parts 1 thru 3.
