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

Calling Out White Folks Afraid Of Folks White
Unity Consciousness #1859

.

( 9zt of 11)

There are so many false and incomplete narratives that many of these illogical constructions, have to be passed over temporarily, just to have a decent discussion about any one of them.

It is common to think Africans are scared of white people because Africans don't just do to folks white what they do to us. If we simply look at the brief history of enslavement, we know this is a false statement. No need to go further because evidence of African bravery exists everywhere, even up to this very day.

On the other hand, the habitual lie has caused Africans to skip over pointing the finger and calling out white fear. Not whites afraid of Africans, but rather whites afraid of whites.

Once again, the evidence is everywhere, even during the 400 year brief history of enslavement, relatively speaking. Since the 1600's, there have been some folks who were white and still are, who have wanted justice for themselves or for others, but have been afraid to stand up, demand it or take it. A recent example is the Occupy Movement which was brutally squashed and now those white folks cower in the background.
Even so, since the invasion of the Americas by whites, most whites have only secretly sought their freedoms or secretly stood up for justice for others. For instance, many abolitionists, or what may be called slave sympathizers or nigger lovers or naga lovers, did it on the down low because they were afraid for any number of reasons, most of them the same reasons some Africans are afraid. This type of fear of whites being afraid of whites still is majority prevalent.

So in other words, it is extremely false, incomplete and imbalanced to project a heart, mind and spirit of fear onto Africans, and not do the same in terms of whites.

Consider the fact, that white people, who are in the favored group, are afraid of pretty much everything Africans are said to be afraid of. Yet whites are not painted as pathetic and weak, even though those whites allow their rights to the equality and privileges of full whiteness, to be trampled.
Not all whites are treated equally. Most whites are treated extremely unequally. They are only able to bear it because their inequity is less than that of Africans. That's how feeble-minded the whites who accept it are. They settle for focusing on being the best racists they can be. They are only brave against Africans because the privileged whites protect them.
But that is tiny bit changing, but not fast enough and not numerically enough. This change seems to be driven by what is right and secondarily, hopefully not too late for their souls.
Only the urgent seeking of doing what is right is going to save the majority of the racists collectives who are realizing greater amounts of fear because their commitment to racism as the only way, is leaving them on the wrong side of history as time marches on and ushers in environmental change.
Even the skies will no longer be friendly to them.
