Instead, the three-fifths clause was for the purposes of how to count slaves (enslaved people) for the purposes of determining each State's representation in Congress. What Africans were, was still property, but as property having value, this property value was allowed to represent humans for the single and sole purpose to help each State gain more political weight, but the three-fifths clause was not for the purposes of acknowledging Africans were in any way human or even partially human. Property can never be human. Let's try another approach.
1. If white people say it, it's a lie first until proven to be true. 2. It's one thing to prohibit or outlaw slavery, and it's another thing to enforce it.
3. It's one thing to stop practicing slavery and another thing to be treated as human.
4. It's one thing to be treated as human and another thing to be treated as a citizen.
5. There's no such thing as three-fifths human or second-class citizen. Either you are or you're not.
1865 CE – 1870 - The 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the US Constitution are not worth the parchment they're scribbled on. If those amendments were true to word, then the entire US government and all State governments and all local governments are guilty in all their departments of violating those three amendments, and in fact, the entire constitution.Understand clearly, nowhere in the history of America have Africans ever been considered one iota human or one iota a citizen. In the early stages, when Africans had more rights, Africans were still not considered equal, because if they were, then their rights would never have been taken away, and those Africans would have been able to participate in the process that resulted in the taking away of their rights. You are never a human or a citizen in the eyes of anyone who infringes upon your rights. Never. Black people have no rights a white man is bound to respect. http://bostonreview.net/law-justice/walter-johnson-no-rights-which-white-man-bound-respect When Africans use terms like people of color or black and brown people, we water down blackness and weaken its strength. We capitulate to our neediness to include others while weakening our identity and momentum towards unity.
However, once we understand all words such as US, USA, America, United States, Land of the Free and so on, are synonyms for White and Whiteness, then we will understand, that in the logic of white folks, nothing they do is a contradiction. In fact, in order to be true to White and Whiteness, you must lie first and only tell the truth to disguise a lie.
From now on, I'm only using “African” to describe Africans who identify either as African or Black, but love Africa first. Africans for Africa first, home and abroad. Africans, I understand our intent, but it's the wrong approach. We don't need to further dilute ourselves by saying people of color, colored people, brown people, marginalized people, disenfranchised people. LGBT people, Spanish people, Puerto Ricans, or anything else, other than African African African. If people in any of those subgroups just mentioned do not see themselves as African First for Africa First, then to hell with them. You unite with us and change your name. Our name is Africa.
I submit to you Africans, than any identity we claim that we put before being African, is a step down in self-esteem. Why? Because doing so is the same as calling yourself an arm, then a leg, then a torso, then perhaps a body. African is the body of humans, the sum of all parts. White people are like an appendix, and that's being generous. They are more like acne or dermatitis. So are you an Appendix or an African-Appendix or an African? Be certain to understand it's good, cool, great, wonderful and beautiful to be Black; however, if blackness confuses you or divides you or separates you from your African consciousness, then to hell with being black.We cannot start our regaining our unity and collective identity by watering our identity down by including all these other designations. When we start out watered down, we will slowly slip to further dilution. We need to start at the highest purest form of concentrated identity – African. If we don't we might as well, call ourselves “The All-Inclusive Non-White Group For The Moment.” That is exactly what we're actually doing by saying people of color, etc. Trust me, “people of color” is logical okie doke. It is yet another trick of the enemy within and without. In at least the past half-Great Year, legal laws have increasingly become tools for government to use as weapons against others. The most disfavored group has increasingly become larger while the most favored group has increasingly become smaller. Currently, legal laws are tools to use against fools. The only way a law can be on your side is if you are in power or if you use all the power you have at your disposal. Of course this includes all potential power. Listen Africans, we have no need to be a part of any other group, designation or identity. The term African is already all-inclusive. There is no human identity greater or more inclusive or more powerful than African. African includes everyone, but excludes those who are not all-inclusive. Thus then, for the longest time and at the present moment and for the foreseeable future, African is limited to those who love African. Those who do not, exclude themselves by choice. I recognize it and I accept that choice. To repeat, you cannot love African and not be African first and foremost. That would be like loving someone's face but not their entire being. Africa is the entire being of humans. We;re every human, it's all in we. In the eyes, minds, psyche, culture of white people and other groups of people, Africans are beneath them. Here is yet another way to look at it:
1. If white people say Africans are human, then white people consider themselves god. They won't say it, but their actions prove it.
2. If white people say they are humans, then white people consider Africans as animals.
3. If white people love specific animals, then Africans are monkeys.
4. If white people love a wide range of animals, then Africans are scum.
5. If white people love scum, then Africans are shit.
6. If white people love shit, then Africans have no purpose for existing.
7. In the minds of white people, Africans can never be a category higher than them or the same as them. Africans must always be beneath them. Not right beneath them, but way beneath them. For example, if there are only two groups, whites consider themselves first and blacks as 100th. Yep! Whites will create empty space or other groups, and even the 99th group is way above Africans. This is how desperately demented white logic is. Who doesn't know this?
None of this is for us Africans to feel woe is me or woe is we, but rather it is to provide clarity, once and for all, about the basis for the entirety of white logic and also the logic of their people of color wannabes.All this is to say, that in the eyes of white people and all other attackers of Africans, African will always be beneath them in any situation, form or version of logic. Even in their God loving bibles. So I continue with this stream of consciousness. If white people are shit and barbaric or whatever the worst description is, white people will invent a lesser description for Africans. For instance if white people are white devils, then white people are okay with that as long as Africans are the black demon slaves who cower, capitulate, kowtow, genuflect and prostrate themselves before almighty red, blue and whitey. Get it through your heads Africans, you have never been second-class citizens because you have never been citizens in any country outside of Africa that is not owned and operated by Africans. I know there's a portion of history in the early formation of America where Africans had the same rights as whites; however those rights were not the same as being considered a citizen or human. Africans are global citizens and the root of all humans. We are the master key. Anywhere and everywhere we go in any country, we are citizens and humans. That's the way it was originally for 99% of history and that logic must be restored in our mentality. We do not need any group to think they have the power to grant, allow or confer citizenship or humanity to us. Africans were human before white people existed. And before any other group existed. As described earlier, white people, in their current racist collective form, are the stinking shit of Africans. See UC#1756. Africans taught white people how to be human after white people forgot how when they went to Europe, lost their melanin and lost their humanity in the Ice Age. What we've been experiencing for the past 400 years is a repeat of what a typical cold day in hell was like for Africans who were so traumatized by the conditions of the Ice Age, they turned white before their own eyes. That would make anyone crazy as the hell that was giving rebirth to them. You can imagine the process they went through as they saw themselves changing. They hated it. Then in order to cope psychologically, they had to accept it and find a way to squash the love they had for blackness. This is the deeper logic behind their behavior. When they came out of the Ice Age, their epigenetics kicked in to try to help them and once again those formerly black Africans, loved, worshiped, praised and sought to be educated by Africans who were still black. Then something happened like a glitch in epigenetics that returned white people to that period of survival that required them to hate the blackness they once had. And this is where we are today. I wonder if Africans in Egypt had such a disdain and different treatment for whites that this awakened a push back response that at least began approx. 332 BCE in Egypt. It is likely, and if so, then at what point will the white push-back response result in the maturation of the African push-back response. And we already know every action elicits at least an equal and opposite reaction. Always remember tomorrow people, when dealing with white people, whatever they say or do to help you, the opposite is always true.
Whatever they say to make themselves look good, the opposite is always true.
On The Subject Of A Jury Of Your Peers
In court systems worldwide, this language is another okie doke because it suggests that someone other than an African can be your peer, thus at the same level, thus equal. What other group considers us equal to them? What other country considers Africa equal to them? Listen closely Africans, the only peers you have are Africans.A jury of our peers only includes Africans. Not every black person qualifies. Not every African qualifies. Only those who are African in their logic. These understandings are an essential ingredient. As we repair (re-pair) our logic, we will become more human in our own eyes, then we will be unable to accept anyone treating us as anything less. We will not stand for it or stand down and wait for some group to acquiesce.
Africans, we can be okay with others thinking we are less than human; however we cannot allow others to act out that logic, without paying the price for infringing upon our God-given rights that no human has the power to administer.
Revisiting Coming Out
As you will notice, we are living during the period of many versions of “coming out.” Make your own list. I will only list three examples.1. The power of spirit-soul is coming out in the form of Aquaria and Kepheus.
2. Africans are coming out; however, we need the rest of us to do the same.
3. White people are coming out in the unashamed unapologetic nakedness form of their Maafa Racism.
4. Please list more forms of “coming out” to help you understand more of what's going on.
On The Subject Of Allies
An ally is a friend. Africans have no friends. If they were friends, they would identify as African first. For the moment I will leave a tiny exception to Cuba for assisting Assata Shakur, however, by no means does assistance to individuals equate to assistance to the group.Secondly, as also mentioned elsewhere, a larger temporary exception is extended to Venezuela for assisting Haiti. I'm going with what Dr. John Henrik Clarke said about Africans having no friends. I'm going with what Dr. Arikana Chihombori-Quao, said that we don't need other groups, they need us. The only reason we think we need other groups is because of our broken logic which causes us to not only not help each other, but also work against each other. [Thus I say, if we are going to accept people as allies, they must do so on our terms which will be slanted in our favor, starting with acknowledging their identity as African first and starting out with a long track record of helping Africans before asking to be our allies.] I'm feeling Umar Johnson and Karen Hunter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLuDqbU7Q5s&feature=push-u-sub&attr_tag=kOlfWi3NB-YEkNYo%3A6
Let Me Summarize
Nowhere in the world have Africans been freed from slavery who are subject to the power of another group. Nowhere has any other group considered Africans as human or citizens. If you think they have due to the words they use, then how does that compare to reality and your ability to fully participate? I guarantee you it is unequal.Africans cannot be enslaved or be less than human or not be a citizen, unless Africans allow it to happen due to the logic Africans choose to use.
The moment we Africans reach the critical mass of changed logic, we will flip over and embrace our lost freedom, humanity and citizenship as rights that no human group can revoke.
